Prescott Park is a lovely place to visit. Spring through fall there are beautiful trees, foliage and fountains to capture your attention. It is a peaceful place to sketch or take a walk any time of day. If you like to take pictures this is a beautiful place to take still life photos or to gather for a family picture. The atmosphere and textures are phenomenal to work with.

The flower gardens are always well maintained and have so much variety. The Christmas lights in the winter are nice. I have been visiting since I was a kid. Great views of the bridges, fishing boats and maybe one day, the outside performances/plays will come back. Parking lot nearby, but, no guarantee of finding a spot. I remember seeing kids playing in the fountains, but, I dont think you will see that anymore:). Benches available for sitting. Bathrooms were in okay shape.You will see s and quite possibly brides having there photo taken. You can watch the boats or the bridge. Bring a book. How many b words can you find?If you visit Portsmouth, I recommend a visit.

Beautiful park! Many different areas to walk around. You can go out on the pier for views on the water, or walk around the pathways. I would say the main attraction is definitely the garden with the fountains and all kinds of beautiful flowers and trees. The only slight downside to the park is that parking seemed very limited - we had to drive around a couple of times until a spot opened up. But we also arent from the area and didnt know where other parking might be available.

Cute little park! Fun for a nice walk or place to chill if you’ve been exploring the town, and a cool view of the water and docks. Biggest downside is that no dogs are allowed- though it did seem a lot of locals didn’t take that too seriously. Scattered throughout the paths are small placards with interesting historical facts about the waterways and the town. Clearly Portsmouth has a rich history! There isn’t much in the way of parking, as it’s all street side parking on the roads leading up to the park, though if you’re there early in the day it isn’t too bad. All in all a cute, brief stop if you’re passing through.

Its the park that youre going to want to visit. On the Piscataqua river that is the boundary between New Hampshire and Maine. Perfect for a stroll anytime or catch a play during the summer. Working boats, pleasure crafts and ships are often passing by. Amazing gardens to explore.

Beautiful botanical gardens, and lots of history tied up in this place. We had a wonderful time, and will make sure to visit again.

A very small gated park. I would call it orangery. It has 3 small fountains, which are surrounded by very beautiful and fragrant flowers. A kind of oasis in the middle of desert.

What a fantastic day with my hubby. A beautiful stroll through all the gardens and the play going on was beauty and the beast-- FANTASTIC!!! We walked the memorial bridge and watched as the boats were traveling under, sat on a few benches and we had brunch at Colbys which again... fantastic, we had a fabulous waiter and it was a fantastic meal. What started as a quick trip took us for the day.. we loved it

Absolutely beautiful gardens and fountains. Sit on one of the many benches that are available and just relax .

Nice place, lots of shade. Kept up really well. Limited parking

Lovely park on the water open 24 hours. No parking; I parked on a side street. There are gorgeous multiple flower displays in season. Don’t miss the walled garden with three fountains by the street. Restrooms are in the brick building next to that (open May through October, the sign says). Lots of benches everywhere and small piers to walk out on, as well as historical plaques. Also an interesting small historic cemetery across Mechanic Street.

The garden in this park is just beautiful! Stumbled upon it while exploring the city and we saw monarchs and many flowers in bloom even in October!

Love this place. I have stopped by this beautiful park numerous times on my bike rides enjoying the nice scene, using its restroom, resting.

Beautiful flower gardens here nice to walk around and watch the boats float by too!

Nice quite park. A great hangout spot in the evening.

A good place to dispatch your enemies in combat! Just check the tidal currents because they can be tricky. Good music too in the summer.

My wife and I came to Prescott Park for the Wood Brothers concert. It was part of the summer concert series. If youve ever seen the Wood Bros live I dont really need to say much, as they are always awesome. I was very impressed with the park and the concert series as a whole. They do a wonderful job putting this on. Very well organized. The concession stands have a great menu. You can get anything from Ice Cream (a wide variety of quality ice creams to select from) to Curry Fries, Tacos (Fish, Chicken and Tofu), Burgers, Fish n Chips, Funnel Cakes, Popcorn and Drinks, just to name a few. We reserved a table, which was well worth the money. Well be going back in a couple of days for Warren Haynes and more than likely will be getting a seasons pass for next summer. I cant say enough good things about the Prescott Park Arts Festival!

Beautiful!! Right by the water. Flower gardens. Benches parking (2hr) and bathrooms

Must see this historic park when in Portsmouth. Take sailing lessons and relax by the river.

Beautiful place love the history and everyone is super friendly. Definitely not your average little town people are not rude like pretty much everywhere else. I love it in Portsmouth New Hampshire its beautiful there I want to live there and plus its so close to Maine and I love Maine. Definitely a great place to visit

This is such a great place to go for a family or on a date or just to go and relax. The flowers are beautiful the water is serene and theres plenty of space to walk and take in Portsmouth. The area has surrounding restaurants and really cute shops.

First time there and it was absolutely beautiful. Cant wait to go back. Very well done.

It is a wonderful spot with a few gardens and fountains. There used to be theaters on Friday and Saturday’s before COVID-19. It is nice view of Portsmouth bridges and overlooking the shipyard going into Maine. It is close to shops and strawberry banks. It is a bit scary at night and lighting is low. The parking is hard to find and most of it is metered.

Great place to walk, sit or enjoy some take-out. There is history mixed in with the beauty. There are bathrooms.

Portsmouth is a fabulous place to visit in summer. It has many restaurants, breweries clothing boutiques, gift shops, and a book store. It is also is home to Strawberry Banke, a restored village steeped in the fishing villages history. In late July and August, this city has two large and beautiful gardens. They are in their full glory right now! With ample parking and a quiet family vibe, this place is perfect for shopping, dining an many evening strolls. Ample parking all around town makes Portsmouth very easy to visit!

Awesome spot and intimate setting, right on the water, for a great concert or show. Theres food and merchandise vendors. Obviously a little on the pricey side. The only 2 drawbacks were 1, no alcohol is allowed (they didnt check out soda cups though ) and 2 people are allowed to bring blankets and chairs hours before the show starts and it fills up quick. So be sure to get there early in the day to reserve a spot.

Always love going to the play over the summer. Wish I could get to more of the concerts, too. Parking in Portsmouth is basically a nightmare, but the play is worth it. The improvements theyve made to the facilities and snack/food building are a wonderful addition the last few years. Great shows!

Great place to stop for lunch. Has clean bathrooms and lots of trash cans around the park

Didnt go during the height of any season but it was still nicely cared for and great for pictures

Beautiful waterfront park with awesome flower gardens. Loved the elevated benches at the pier.

Beautiful water frontpark with the most gorgeous flowers. We had a picnic and walked all over, it was a perfect day.

Always a beautiful place to vist and have a picnic.

Absolutely beautiful place. The nearby restaurants are great too.

Lovely place to visit on a sunny afternoon. Plenty of walking paths. Park on Peirce Island.

Too crowded. It has nice garden.

This is a nice park to feed seagulls and look out over the water.

So very very peaceful and uplifting. A tiny little oasis within a very pleasant city!!

Great place to relax and have a picnic read a book take a stroll. Not far from downtown.

What a gorgeous asset and gathering place for the city of Portsmouth! This park is well-maintained, clean and has so much to look at. Plus, the area and shops and restaurants add so much to the quaint, coastal area.

What a cool park. Too a wrong turn and ended up here, so I had to get out of the car and check out out. Amazing flowers and cool views along the water. They were retrofitting submarines at the naval yard when I was there. Lots of cool buildings around the neighborhood.

Flowers were beautiful as always..thanks

Its pretty, quiet, has a great waterfront view and atmosphere, and is attractively maintained.

Great place to be by the ocean, great flower garden to take pictures one of our stops when were out on the bike, stop in with the family.

A lovely place on the river with beautiful gardens, well maintained.

Beautiful park especially in the summer when all the flowers are in full bloom. Clean bathroom and close to town. There are plenty of shades to sit and relax (with a picnic basket).

Great views with beautiful scenery!! Also great for Pokemon players

Always a beautiful place to visit. The flowers are amazing. You can sit out on the docks and watch the boats come in. You can stick around and watch the yearly musicals which are always great. You can even go out on a old gundalow boat, or wait till august and see the magnificent tall ships. So much to doand see and just relax!

Nice park. Lots to see. The hallmark are the meticulously maintained gardens.

My children forever want to visit and play

Great place- beautiful flowers by the ocean. Parking is not great. Be prepared to walk a little!

Had a great time watching the fireworks. I was only a tiny bit terrified when a rogue firework crashed down only 20 feet away from my picnic blanket. Dont be worried about this happening to you though, because Ive been attending fireworks there for at least 6 years and its never happened before. Although I have posted a picture of the rogue firework.

Nice outing walking though the gardens.

Absolutely love Prescott. Great walk and great views

Very nice view from my stand point

Beautiful park and gardens. Location is seaside, nice ocean breeze.

It was fun, plenty of Pokemon Stops for you Pokemon Go players. Beautiful Park by the port.

From just walking around to catching a show in the summer, Prescott is a great place to be

Great place to have lunch and watch harbor traffic.

I came here alone for my day off. This park made my feel so comfortable and relaxed. Thank to a small park, this place is so quiet and few people here. In addiction there is a small flower garden too. I love this place️️

Especially when the flowers are blooming, I love Prescott park! Such a great place to be. We have watched lobster ships come and unload, sat by the ocean, walked through the flower gardens, and I love the park every time!

Love it best place to relax and theres a bird there I know his name is hip hop he has one leg

A popular park for a reason. One of my favorite places to go and the outdoor summer concerts are incredible. Its such a beautiful place to go and relax by yourself or with friends and family.

Nice little park where students had lunch and played ball.

It a beautiful place to just go and sit and relax.

A nice sea-breeze coming off the water in the park.

This is a great park to walk around and see the boats/bridge/flowers. Weve been coming the past few years and always go to Prescott Park for a walk with a view.

Very scenic and a comfortable place to read or just go relax!

Nice little park with walking area and opportunity to do more.

This place is great for children and adults, there is so much to do and see that you can make a day and/or night of it. Example, fire pits for grilling. Concert and movies with seating and concession . Playground and Lego stations for the little ones. Clean restrooms. Photo ops galore. Gardens and fountains. Old houses. Boat rides. Estuaries complete with cormorants and others. Clean. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a nice way to kill a day.

It is a relaxing place to wonder. It is kept up well.

Nice place for a run or walk. I am here in spring which is kind of better as there arent as many people. There are many food and wine options nearby too. Strawberry Banke museum is like a few mins walk.

I love it here. As a Portsmouth resident, I got married here. I visit often. The grounds are meticulously kept. Which, is why there are no dogs allowed.

This park has everything!! 2hr parking, a view of the river across to surrounding islands, bridge and Kittery opposite, the cleanest restrooms, drinking fountains, seating, entertainment (Summer concerts and theatre) and beautiful gardens. Interesting history!

I have always loved Prescott Park and Portsmouth. The flowers, when in bloom here, are always so beautiful and being so close to the water makes it that much better. A must visit in the Spring, Summer & fall. Of course I was there this past weekend and enjoyed its sleepy time of the year!

Cutr little place to relax by the fountains & all the flowers. If youre an avid photographer, its the perfect place to get some flower shots or even do a little photoshoot here.

Cute park right in downtown Portsmouth NH. You can see the river off of the pier and look at the beautiful flower gardens. I walked through the downtown area as well and would reccommend pairing the two.

Beautifully kept park with picture perfect flowers!!

Parking close to launch,helpful staff,convenient port o sans.

We love this park. Always something going on and our favorite pirate, Captain Jay, can be found from time to time. The kids love his show so its a special treat when they get to meet him in person!

Beautiful location. Flowers are amazing

Beautiful part on the water-way. A nice place for a stroll or to watch the water activity. In the heart of Portsmouth, NH, you can get there from many different approaches. Check out this town. Its amazing and full of history and New England charm.

Fantastic little waterfront park with plenty of room for everyone to enjoy the sights

Our family loved visiting here in late spring. There is so much to see in the little town in the area and great landscaping. There are a lot of shops and cafes in the area also. Parking is not the greatest there, you have to park further (metered parking) and walk to the park. Everything is very beautiful here which makes for a nice stroll.

Not much of a plant person, my wife is BUT even I dont mind walking the gardens which are right next to the river before it dumps into the ocean. Plenty of benches to sit and relax, look at the gardens or the river and boatyard. Plays and concerts in the summer months and close to Strawberry Banke and downtown.

I grew up here, but lived in N.C. 30 Yrs. Been all over the Country. Prescott, for its beauty and ambiance, rates in top 5 Small parks Ive had pleasure to visit!

Four Tree Island is a beautiful park, covered picnic area. Only complaint is all the geese and geese fecal matter all over the grass and main brick walk way.

Good spot to hang out outside

Always beautiful & peaceful; a great place to wander for an hour or so.

It was absolutely amazing my man jerry patch knows how to be so romantic

A nice park close to the ocean, with a beautiful garden in full bloom! Activities held and nice walkways!

If in Portsmouth, NH this stop us a MUST! The meticulous gardens, flowers, trees and fountains with a picturesque background of the Piscataqua River and Strawberry Bank... youll not be sorry you stopped!

Large, attractive waterfront park in Portsmouth, NH. Outdoor concerts and plays are held there regularly. Beautiful flower gardens and a public bathroom.

Great spot for a picnic

Was alot of beautiful flowers

This is my favorite park in Portsmouth.

Its the most beautiful park in Portsmouth!!! Summer time also witnesses a lots of kids and music programs by famous artists!

Beautiful place to walk after lunch, we walked all around. Looked at the summer schedule

Clean and nice nature walk.

Beautiful park with views of the port, and amazing gardens.

Beautiful gardens next to the Piscataqua River. Excellent walking paths along the river.Beware though...if a concert is going on at this venue there is a serious attempt at quilting you into a donation by corralling you thru a taped of gate access. If you come to enjoy the park then do so its great. Just walk thru the gate and smile. If you are there to watch and enjoy concert then give them a donation.
