Great, unexpected little Vermont Park in the middle of suburbia. parts of it almost look like an old growth forest with almost no underbrush, but Im not exactly sure about that.it can be dark and cool even on a hot summer day which is nice, not so nice on a cold day. it does have a little playground but the main show is simply the woods in the rocks in the little caves. Ive seen coyotes there, harmless and pretty cool. theres a little fetid pond, perfectly nice for walking around and feeding ducks which youre not really supposed to do :-). Ive actually crossed country skied here, but its pretty small. wonderful rocks and hills for climbing. highly recommended but please dont overcrowd it :-)

This wad a beautiful place to visit. Its an easy trail with run offs if youd like more of a challenge. From the pond top the park top the mounds of things top see, you, and your kids, wont regret it!

Wooded hiking trails, pond, playground, and much more!

Lovely park. Nice to see that during the pandemic everyone wore a mask.

Wonderful park! Close to good places to eat after playing on the field, at the pond, playground or in the woods. ️ ️ ️ ️ ️

Brilliant miniature piece of forest. Leash law is said to be strictly enforced but not by everyone.

Cool suburban park, nice shady trees and trails.

Beautiful park. There was an algae bloom while we were there, but signage was present to warn visitors.

Great place to hang out and bike.

Lovely, water views and paths for all ability levels. Parking can be a challenge, but usually doable for free.

Great places for of the leash dogs, beautiful, varied, magical

Beautiful wooded area, perfect for an afternoon walk with the dog. Wish there was an official parking area, just parked in a residential area instead.

Great for fishing with the kids!

Oh my goodness this is a beautiful park! We have such a great time hiking around with our 4 year old.

Its the place I go to let my worries go. Climb the rocks for a beautiful view. Great getaway for someone who works at home. Beautiful Free Library!

One of the cleanest park that I have seen so far.

It’s pretty but why is there 3 baby swings and only one big kid swing? Disappointing for our 7 yr old, he asked if the park was only for babies? Feels kind of baby/toddler centric as anything else around here giving nothing much to do for the older kids. :/

This park is awesome to go for a walk.

Very boring, over-rated for sure.

Lovely park to walk the dog, visit the playground or even fishing. My kids love to ride their bikes there as the pond is so small

Amazing place for walking and city nature

This is an oasis just outside of the city. It’s a nice place to just chill.

Beautiful, peaceful and idyllic. The people and doggos attribute to the comforting atmosphere

This park used to be the best place to walk dogs and hang out, but now they are way over the top strict about dogs remaining on a leash at all times which truly destroys the enjoyment of being there.

Nice park, clean, wish it had some lights coming up on dusk,and the playground could us some updating my son got splinters.other than that you can make a nicer afternoon in that park with a lunch walk the path eat let the kids play toss a ball..cute

It is a wonderful area to walk around.

Nice place to go running, especially on a hot day since the foliage provides a lot of shade.

This is the total package, just a wonderful place if youre looking for happy. PROS: Its peaceful and calms the kids down. A place for all ages 1-100 yrs and up. Great get away if you just want to read or meditate. Walking trails with resting benches in/around pond (winter ice skating) ducks and turtles, beautiful species of birds, shaded swing/ slide playground construction, large open field for ball playing & activities, picnic area, and ITS FREE...CONS: no outhouse, limited street parking.

Street parking, not too crowded.

Love the pond and good walk through the woods here

Nice place to walk your dog

Gorgeous park, it was so relaxing. My dog is learning dog social skills so I was thrilled to see posted that there are on and off leash times. We wills definitely be coming back.

I love this park. Its great for little kids to walk and play in. Its also good for dogs, but there is no fully enclosed area.In the winter, the neighbors set this pond up for skating, and some of the big stones have been cut into seats so you can lace up your skates.

Despite signage requiring dogs be leashed in the woods, I always encounter loose and unsupervised dogs on the forest trails. As a person with a disability and service dog user, this is dangerous and entirely negates my enjoyment of the public space.

Love Menotomy rocks. Great mix of big open fields, walking trails, playground, and pond. Such a gem one of my favorite parks!

Great park to go fir a walk...

Beautiful park with flat grassy areas, hills, walking paths, playground, and pond. Playground is surrounded by trees so may be partially shaded in summer. Dogs must be leashed. Like a little oasis in middle of Arlington.

This place is beautiful, very peaceful

Incredible beautiful park with tall trees and a nice 1km loop path (.76 miles). It has a pond, a kids play area, picnic tables and a few open grassy areas. Great for dogs and families!

A little park with a lot of natural beauty.Dogs love it, too.

Great park for little kids and dogs! Awesome to ride your bike around. 4 times around is one mile, and it is very easy to run around. Great spot for beginner fishermen. Skating and sledding are very easy in the winter.

Nice park. No public restrooms. 2 picnic tables (that can be reserved), a playground, and a fishing pond make this park a great place for family, hiking, fishing, picnics, and sunbathing.

Beautiful park in Arlington MA. Plenty of swings and things for kids and trails for walking and jogging. In the winter a nice pond for skating.

Though it is pretty small, it is hard to find such a beautiful place in the city. It is also very well maintained. Its a great place to walk dogs.

Great hiking dog walking fishing and playground. Something for everyone!

Great fishing and playground.

Great public park. Playground, walking trails, pond (no swimming, but ice skating when frozen). Off leash dog hours in morning.

Great place for a walk

Small. Family friendly. Great family fishing spot

Great park for trail running intervals. Scenic and not as crowded. Also a great destination for dog owners and parents from the neighborhood. The secluded playground is a gem.

Nice and quiet place .

Saw turtles, birds and a beaver today.....nice visit!

Clean, well kept, nice for walking including some slopes and rocks.

Lovely place to walk, with or without a dog! Pond, lots of wooded area with paths, and a play area for small children.

This fantastic wooded oasis might be Arlingtons very best park. Perfect for a short or long walk, geocaching, or bringing the kids for an hour on the excellent shaded playground.

This place feels awesome. From the tiny pond to the forested playground to the meandering paths, this place is a small bit of outdoor wonder.

A great escapade from the busy streets. Its so close yet it feels as if you have driven a couple of hours away from the city.

Lovely, mellow, wide open and plenty of shade.

Very peaceful park, has a nice shaded kids playground thats perfect for hot summer days.

Okay

Great place for a quick nature break

Free place for walking, dogs, meditation, picnics.

Great place to take the kids for stroll. Very dog friendly too!

Nice little walking loop, with an optional hill trail. If youre not into pets, ponds, or people, this is not the place for you.

Pretty!

A great park for taking a walk or a small hike.

Great spot for a walk in the woods and shaded playground.

A great peaceful place to take a stroll when the weather is nice. never full but will always find other people around.

Just beautiful

Very pretty, a great place for a walk, bike ride, or to go skating!!

Can get crowded. Some issues with dogs.

Great place to do a marriage ceremony :)

Beautiful park, great for small hikes.

Neighborhood park with a pond, playground, picnic tables and walking trails.
