Classic old Beach. Great for the Xmas tree bonfire later in the year.

Nice place for walking or mountain biking if you want too grill out bring your grill down to the fields

Great place to fish. Would like to check out the camping as well one day soon.

Not too crowded and everyone was respectful of s.d. A great (very short) short walk through the park.

Tech had alot experience with computers. She knew exactly what I needed. I am very happy with service and fast pace.

Very nice place to spend time, biking, walking, whatever.

The picture is Dead Horse Beach which is a great place to swim.

Perfect for picnics and cook outs. Really beautiful views by the water. Bathroom isnt too far, can be found by the arcade. Lots of parking space.

Great little hidden park and historic site in walking distance of downtown Salem.

Ever Since I Was A Baby

Not figuratively a pile of compacted dirt on top of a small hill, covered with nth generation woods. Without the helpful plaque near the bottom of the stone stairs, you would not know you were walking on ramparts from the revolutionary war.Unless you need a walker the walk to the top and the walk around the top are easy 5 and 10 minute projects from the he unmarked roadside parkingEven in spring with no leaves, the woods are dense enough to prevent the views of the town and harbour the dirt was originally pilled to create

Ive been going there for Years N Years...When I was there W/family from New.Jersey, The place was closed, October in Salem...This place would take away money from downtown...N Salem, Cant have that...................

I love the open spaces with The Salem Light. And Salem Willows is fabulous!

I used to go there when I was a kid....its so nice and pleasant and theyve kept it really clean..definitely a must go

Lots and lots of parking but still lots and lots of people visiting. Best advice is either get there early in the day or get there after 3 and afternoon during summer time and during days with festivals at Salem Willow. There are bathrooms, restaurants and games down at Salem Willow. Also it is very nice to sit and enjoy people-watching on a bench or in the grass plenty of places to walk around and in just enjoy the day!

Good please

Winter Island is way awesome,beautiful LighthouseOld buildings,beaches..rocky cliffs walking trails and a fabulous place to camp out..one of my ultra fave places in Salem

Breezy and sunny

The only Revolutionary War rampart fort still in basically its original condition. Not much to look at for non-history types, but a fascinating look at what Bunker Hill would have looked like from inside.

Good place to hold the muster!

I did not visit there. I drove by there. Must have caught me at a long light.

Lots of great paths to explore.

Great historical site but the lack of maintenance is unacceptable. Trash, overgrown vegetation, and even some human remains every now and then. If this is the best Salem can do I am not impressed. This is sacred ground keep it clean.

Yes, unfortunately the site has fallen into a state of disrepair. This was not a hastily built fort such as what was erected at Breeds Hill, but a well laid out, garrisoned fort. When you walk into the fort proper, the extension on the right is what is left of the powder magazine, which was constructed of sod brick. The ramparts were constructed with poles placed every two feet most likely with baskets of fill and clay in between. According to engravings of the fort in 1820, on the ridge outside the fort facing left and down from the fort was the wooden barracks. Pipe stems found within the fort and area show habitation from the end of the 17th century till the 1850s. Ox and horse bones and shoes, Bennington ware spitoon fragments, and irom ware have been found near the magazine.in 1975-76 brass plaques were placed at the fort( these have since disappeared. Havent been up there in years.

Im disabled so i couldnt even have my service animal there .Wow.Discrimination

The fort is secure!

I love this place

Neat place!

Cool place to take a short hike but there is a bit more trash in the woods than I would like.

Overgrown Civil War fort remnants, homeless camps, and coyotes are what youll find in this wooded area.
