Spring Park is located on the beautiful St. Johns River. Access is available via Walnut Street, Magnolia Avenue, Spring Street and Ferris Street/St. Johns Avenue. It is open to the public from sunrise to sunset. Spring Park hosts many of the City’s activities, such as our famous Memorial Day RiverFest held in May. Spring Park also includes state-of-the-art playground equipment for children of all ages and numerous covered shelters for family gatherings, picnics or just relaxing in the shade.

Spring Park is nestled serenely along the western bank of the St. Johns River. As the river’s cool breeze sweeps through the Park, the Spanish moss draping the beautiful oaks becomes animated and visitors are captivated by the majestic St. Johns River. Nature’s signature piece of art is the mystical spring. The water surges up from below at a rate of 1,346 gallons per minute and at a constant temperature of 77 degrees. It flows out the spring, through the municipal swimming pool, and finally into Spring Run as it makes its journey to the St. Johns River some 200 feet away.

Enhancement of Spring Park is an intricate part of redeveloping the entire downtown historic district. The City Council had a vision for the future of this natural treasure. From there, a planning firm was chosen and the first draft was completed. The master plan was completed and the first phase implementation began in fiscal year 1998 to 1999. The City then obtained over $250,000 in FRDAP grants to purchase new playground equipment, build new sidewalks and picnic shelters and place decorative lighting throughout the Park. Enhancing the Park’s features is an ongoing project.

Work for these Spring Park Improvements started in 2018, and include renovating a picnic pavilion, upgrading boardwalk and river overlook with fishing pier, extending trails along the river, adding overlook swings along river trials, building a kayak launch, renovating spring run pedestrian bridge, and upgrading playground equipment-including adding wheelchair accessible playground equipment. These improvements will be complete by Spring 2020.
