Walsingham Lake is situated between the cities of Largo and Seminole in Pinellas County, Florida. The 100-acre reservoir is surrounded by a 354-acre county park serving as the collection basin before it enters McKay Creek. It then flows north into Ridgecrest Lake and Taylor Lake, ultimately emptying into Clearwater Harbor, the water body through which the highly-navigated Intracoastal Waterway channel runs.

Walsingham Park includes eight picnic shelters (may be reserved up to one year in advance), grills, picnic tables, water fountains, restrooms, playground, paw playground, cycling/walking trails, and a boat launch area. The park provides pleasant, relaxing amenities for approximately 700,000 visitors each year.

Walsingham Park also serves as a large-animal evacuation center during hurricanes for the surrounding urban-equestrian community.

Boating on this lake is restricted to rowing, sailing, or electric engines (combustible engines not permitted).
