The park is located in the heart of the Redland at SW 248 Street and SW 187 Avenue, aka Redland Road. Just take the Turnpike to 248 Street and head west. The Redland is quite a few miles away from the Florida Turnpike so don’t despair and think you’re lost. It’s approximately 7 miles from the highway so have patience. Once you pass US 1 there will be very few lights. Just watch for the stop signs every half mile or so and be cautious when crossing Krome Avenue (177 Ave.) At a certain time the cross lights are yellow so treat those as stop signs also.
Stargazing in the Redland is particularly appropriate as the rural area without lots of streetlights lends itself to better viewing. I’ve not checked the weather yet but the view from my window tells me it looks like a sunny day. Hope the rain clouds stay away and provide clear skies for losing ourselves in the stars.
Have fun and maybe I will see you there!
