Vogt-Meloon Park

Park Overview

Located on W. Oak Ridge Road in Orlando, Vogt-Meloon Park is a cozy 2.4-acre local retreat that offers a clean, refreshing escape from the urban bustle. While it may be small in size, this little park offers several recreational options. Just keep in mind that parking can be a bit tight, so you might want to plan accordingly.

Recreational Facilities

Kids will love the playground area, where they can burn off energy and make new friends. Just a few steps away, you'll come across two full basketball courts complete with lighting for those evening pickup games when the Florida sun isn't beating down quite so hard. The lighting makes evening games possible when the temperatures are cooler.

Picnic Areas

Feeling hungry? The park's picnic areas come equipped with tables and grills, well-suited for everything from a casual sandwich lunch to a full-on family barbecue. The setting provides a pleasant spot for outdoor dining.

Grounds and Management

The park features open green spaces that invite you to throw a frisbee, practice yoga, or simply sprawl out with a good book. Thanks to the diligent care of Orange County Parks and Recreation, the grounds are well-maintained and welcoming year-round.

Amenities and Limitations

It's worth noting that the park doesn't have public restrooms or water fountains, so you might want to come prepared. Pet owners should also bring their own waste bags, as the park doesn't provide dispensers.

While Vogt-Meloon Park is smaller than many of Orlando's recreational spaces, it provides a nice green space where neighbors can gather outdoors.
