Take a step away from all the shopping, wrapping, baking, and decorating this weekend. Find a quiet place to decompress. Quiet Waters Park is a 430-acre Broward County Park located at 401 South Powerline Road in Deerfield Beach. Deerfield Beach is a city just south of the Palm Beach County line near Boca Raton. The city is named for the numerous deer that once roamed the area. 

Quiet Waters Park is known locally for its annual Renaissance Festival and Ski Rixen cable water-skiing system. Ski Rixen is one of 79 cable water-ski attractions in the world, and the only wakeboard and water ski resort in South Florida.  Its a great place to take visiting family and friends to enjoy an outside water adventure and really appreciate the South Florida winter weather.

Quiet Waters also features unique Rent-a-Tent and Tepees, a marina with boats for rent, Woofing Waters dog park, several lakes for fishing, basketball courts, Splash Adventure children's water park that is open seasonally. There are also mountain bike trails and the Eagle's Nest children's open-space playground.
