Beautiful nature spot. Great for photoshoots. Go before closing 6pm-7pm for best natural lighting & to avoid crowds.

I loved seeing the Treaty Oak tree. But it would have been nice to have seen a plack about the tree, not just the people who donated. I had to do some research to do d out that the tree its self is a treaty oak, which is a type of oak. Plus the tree is over 250 years old. So would have just been nice to have had a black to read rather than having to Google it.

This is an awesome tree! They have a boardwalk surrounding the tree so you can get up close and see it. The only disappointment is that you cant climb on the tree. I think it wouldve been fun to climb on.

My family stopped in here for a quick family photo session and it was a really cool experience. This tree is absolutely enormous, pictures just do not do it justice at all. The tree is over 200 years old if I remember correctly and is massive at its base. Once you walk up under the branches that droop down to the ground, you are so engulfed in the tree that you feel like you are in a completely different park. This beautiful tree made for some really awesome family pictures and it was fun to learn about the history of the park and the tree over the many years. I bet this would be really beautiful lit up with lights at night, but were visiting during the day so unable to see what that might look like. The only drawback was there is a large parking garage behind it that can take away from the natural feel of it a bit, but it is still a marvel to see nonetheless.

I have been dying to bring the rest of my family here after our sons senior pictures were taken. This tree makes me feel some kind of emotional. Its breathtaking!

The tree is absolutely outstanding! Nice place to check out.

Love this quaint park. Great place for a quick lunch.

I enjoyed walking around the area. I gave four stars because so many people are out there living or doing things other than enjoying the park. They need some security. Overall its worth the visit.

Park needs more attention from the City. Nice old large tree to check out.

Great place to take pictures.

Its a really pretty tree thats a nice stop to take a break. There are homeless that use the outlets to play music but other than that, its peaceful.

Such an awesome tree. Who ever the Arborists are in charge of preserving it have done a good job.

Its not everywhere you can visit a massive old tree tucked downtown in a city the size of Jacksonville. I was astonished by the beauty of this tree. Its a great location to take photos at. And the beat part is its free to visit. Only downside is limited parking.

Very picturesque! Be careful, the deck is very slippery when wet.

The menu here is pretty rustic. Acorns and squirrel are the only items on the menu. If you want wine, you have to bring your own ( and water for that matter.) Upside: There is no corkage fee! Downside: One has to catch and prepare the squirrel and gather the Acorns oneself while dodging photographers filming people in nice clothes shooting you dirty looks. The service sucks.

Limited parking, but they have a cool, huge old tree and you and friends can walk under it and around it. The branches are bigger than most big tree trunks; so heavy they touch the ground. And the trunk so huge you have to see it to understand. A very special place.

This Tree is beautiful and gives off an amazing energy. Definitely stop and give this beauty a hug

This tree is magnificent! At over 250 years old, its branches touch the ground and the size is unbelievable.

The tree is beautiful, but there is nothing else there, just a tree and a walkway. The tree also had a large hornets nest so we couldnt look around the entire tree.

Beautiful oak tree, worth of visiting. Have parked car in nearby hotel. Lovely and peaceful place to relax and think.

Beautiful park. Well maintained. Parking is limited.

The massive oak is unbelievable! It will redefine your concept of a large tree. Amazingly, though many limbs have drooped all the way to the ground and have again started reaching skyward, the tree seems to be in good health with no signs of dying back anywhere. Everyone needs to behold this piece of Jacksonville history!

Jacksonville has so many similarities to Charleston SC. However all of it is within the city like Treaty Oak my first park visiting when I moved here. I love the tree enjoy the experience of the palms tree as well shady and well kept. Cherished quiet park. Great for weddings! Photo shoots! Meditate!Plus Southern Grill right next to park!

Wine CellerMedium Rare Lamb Chops and flourless chocolate cake. YUM

It may not have playgrounds and all the fancy things that some parts have but what it does have is an absolutely amazing tree. There are several trees on the property you can walk around theres places that you can sit down you can bring your pets you can picnic you can do all kinds of different things here. I have been going to this park for probably close to 20 years add it never gets old. This tree is absolutely beautiful it is survived so many acts of nature fires storms hurricanes. You can see the wear and tear or some of the branches are twisted but continue to grow. And as I sit underneath this tree it reminds me that as long as you are well grounded nothing or nobody can knock you over you will stand tall and proud. I personally think this is something that everyone should see. And when you read the story about this tree its absolutely amazing.

Loved being here with my boyfriend it was awesome evening

Love this park peaceful and tranquil

I have heard about this tree and saw photos of it but being under its huge branches is awesome..... Estimated 250 years +.... Shockingly huge.... I loved it. The oldest living tree in Jacksonville.Must see. I was able to park right in front of it witch was very convenient.

Came here with the family and we had a great time the tree was so cool looking it surely did look like an octopus it was the biggest tree I have ever seen in my life the kids were equally impressed they explored played in the grass and it was free! I dont know why Im just finding out about this place but I figured I would write about it and encourage others to try it out as well I mean you cant see that kind of tree just anywhere Im blessed to know but I have to see it.

Very interesting history and the big oak tree is amazing!!

Awesome place and worth a trip if you like old oaks and history!

Beautiful and clean park. Great seating areas/ picnic areas.

Awesome place to visit! Just take a second and look at the rich heritage and history this tree has seen!

Great tree Jacksonville must get the homeless out of downtown they act like we are inconveniencing them by visiting this park jax city leaders should stop dreaming about downtown development it wont happen until the homeless people are removed and cared for

This tree is so big and beautiful

Great place until the bugs get you

Been visiting this beautiful tree for the past 8 years, nice area when homeless people aren’t camping, pans handling or doing drugs by the tree.

My favorite place to go

Great place to see one of the oldest trees in the southeast.

A must visit on your stop or drive through Jacksonville. Something this old and massive is just worth the stop. I felt like it has a Medusa feel to it with the branches almost alive as they extend from the mighty trunk of this Oak. Love Florida.

A must see in downtown Jax. Easy parking, a quick site. Ive never seen anything like it. It doesnt fit in a photograph!

Great place to take pictures

This tree is something else! In very busy downtown you find a hidden gem that I think is 100-200 years old. Its amazing just even standing near it. I understand trees dont have eyesBut can you imagine how much this beauty has seen? The chances around it? Im so happy they left it where it is instead of cutting it down and building just another building over it.

The most beautiful sight to behold.

Great place to get married

An absolutely beautiful park. The tree is amazing and no pictures can do it justice. A great place to sit & meditate with the little bit of nature left in this city.

Huge beautiful tree

I found this tree to be absolutely astounding. The life force energy that this tree gives off is incredible. May it live another 200 years!

Great spreading live oak with a boardwalk. Parking is very limited. Have been twice and both times seen pro photo shoots happening. Also, families with a picnic.

This thing is huge, well worth the time to stop and take a look. Nothing much else is there other than a few plaques to commemorate the history of the tree and a nice Park area however still worth the time to see this impressive oak tree. A must visit on your stop or drive through Jacksonville. Something this old and massive is just worth the stop. I felt like it has a Medusa feel to it with the branches almost alive as they extend from the mighty trunk of this Oak. Love Florida.

Beautiful. Off beaton path-worth the stop...

Peaceful ️

See the tree in person is much more impressive and seeing a picture of it. Its amazingly large and sprawling. It looks like an octopus. Highly recommended to visit.

Gorgeous oak tree and perfect setting for our intimate outdoor wedding!

I enjoyed visiting there

Its a small park with a huge tree. Give it a visit.

Amazing 250 year old tree

Defiantly my favorite spot in Jacksonville for photo shoots it’s such a gem, people pass it all the time and never realized how beautiful it is inside

Very historical and gorgeous trees. Great setting for any occasion

Released my healed squirrel here, there were plenty of acorns and places for her to play and thrive. I know she will be safe and happy here and have plenty of company!

Small park but a stunning oak with limbs caressing the ground. Great place for a picnic.

A very nature retreat with a gigantic oak tree centerpiece in Jacksonville. Very worth a visit!

Absolutely worth a quick stop to check it out. Ive been stopping in for 30+ years. Beautiful tree.

Gorgeous 250 year old oak tree in the heart of downtown Jacksonville. Definitely Worth a visit.

Visited today, 4th of July, 2017. Few visitors. This is a truly awesome sight. You have to see it to really appreciate the size. Will return and bring my grandchildren. One of a kind.

No much to see, only that huge amazing and impressive tree.

The tree is 200 years old and its very pretty and I took my children there when they were little now I take my grandchildren

Wow...awesome

Very cool place to stop take a look at a very old tree in Jacksonville Florida take a stop and look at it.

Just a cool old tree....not really sure what there is to say about some wood....the story on how a fake news story saved its life is kinda funny! But yeah....go look at the tree and find whatever it is you are looking for!

This is a tree no one can tell you the age, the homeless are trashing it out, someone need to run the homeless away from the tree

Its a nice park really awesome place for taking pictures for wedding or of family just the parking is very limited and there was 2 homeless people hanging out there

We liked it. Love the history about it. No good parking and there was a couple of suspicious characters hanging around when we went.

This park is small but its got something wonderful in it! It houses the oldest and largest oak in Jacksonville, FL. Its simply massive. When you stand under it and look up at the branches you feel small and insignificant next to its majesty! Its a must see!

Well maintained area. Beautiful tree. I wish they would put more historical information around the park.

A lovely park, cool place to sit in the summer. Sadly in an effort to fight homelessness they removed benches, making it more of a cool place to stand for a few minutes than anything else.

Its an amazing, enormous tree and the gate and walkway decorations go well with it. Despite what gps might say, entrance is on Prudential

Play me and my wife used to hang out at once you working at Baptist

This thing is huge, well worth the time to stop and take a look. Nothing much else is there other than a few plaques to commemorate the history of the tree and a nice Park area however still worth the time to see this impressive oak tree.

First time seeing this beautiful tree

Awesome tree

Nostalgic! Wonderful park. Scenic!

Great place!! One of a kind Tree#

Needs bathrooms, fountain, hard to call a park. Tree is cool though

Clean and beautiful place to visit and bring family

Nice little park in the center of Jacksonville, Fl. Sad to see so many homeless hanging out there.

Festival Dvine fit perfectly in this location. Twas a great time.

Beautiful little park with an amazing tree. Cant give it five star because theres absolutely nowhere to park. Pleaser organiser car park spots for maybe one hour.

I had a little a different idea about the park but the tree itself is incredible

Fun place for the kids to visit. There is nothing terribly exciting, it is just a cool tree you wont see anywhere else.

Excellent place to take pictures.

We made a Roadtrip from Houston, Texas to visit our Oldest son in #JAX he told us that we should visit the Treaty Oak Park, we enjoyed Huging this lovely, senior Oak Tree.We took tons of pictures It was a pleasure to meet Our Senior Oak tree, long life for Our Senior Oak tree.Well come back again!Thank you Jacksonville, Florida.

One of my favorite places in Jacksonville.

Very beautiful tree, great place to read a book or have a picnic in a tree.

So peaceful

Really big oak tree

Great place for photos, relaxing and seems well kept. could use a few more benches

From intimate weddings to engagement session and family photos this is a great location to get some cool backgrounds. The park does get busy in the later afternoon but the tree is so large other people can be around and it wouldnt matter. If you do go here please clean up after yourself and respect the area!

I Went here for a wedding. This is a lovely park right in the middle of a city. The oak tree is absolutely gorgeous and I think this would be a lovely location for many different kinds of events. The oak tree is out of this world watching its long limds climb along the ground. Truely beautiful.

If you want to understand your place in the universe, come sit under the treaty oak.
