Splash pads in Maitland, Florida

Lake Lily Park is Maitland's small-town charm play, and the splash pad fits right into a stroller loop around the lake — ducks, a gazebo, and a Wednesday farmers market in season. Ground sprays are toddler-sized, with a shaded playground next door and pavilions for picnics. Free parking and clean restrooms. Year-round operation. Best in the morning before the Central Florida sun climbs; afternoon storms in summer are guaranteed. Pair with lunch at Maitland Avenue's cafes a block away. The under-the-radar alternative to Lake Eola when downtown Orlando feels like too much.
