Dean park is the main park of SHREWSBURY town. I love going here for my walk any time of the day as it is near to where I stay. There is the main pond with so many geese whom you can see throughout the year. They claim there is a fountain but I haven’t seen it working in the last two years that is very disappointing.Trail / walking - yes you can go round the pond and it is very relaxing. The only downside I see that parts of the park road is narrow and is shared by car and Walkers. This makes us remain always cautious while walking with kids.Kids play ground is ok. Tennis play ground, basket ball court, volleyball court, baseball ️ ground is busy as per the season.You have enough benches and picnic area where you can relax and slow down a bit in our busy life. The long trees thought out the park, quickly help you in that. The park is well maintained and have three separate parking areas...
Dean park is a great place to have a barbecue or play with friends. They offer Fresh Water Fishing lessons there. Dean Park is located at 805 Main St. Shrewsbury MA. They have a Water Fountain show that is very interesting and it has lights when the water shoots up. These fountains came in 2004. The pond at Dean Park is not allowed for swimming. They have a baseball field and a huge group of flat grass. It is near General Artemas Wards Museum.
Dean Park continues to be a clean family park where patrons can enjoy a good time without fear of violence or ignorant haters. This park shows that diversity can work, and is a model that the country could fashion. Kudos
Best place to relax, fish, play sports and just hang out with friends. this place is well kept and clean
The park is very calming. There are areas of activity, baseball and basketball. And areas of serenity, paths, benches and a pond.
Nice park with lot of walk space, kids playing area, town tennis courts and basketball baseball courts.
Very nice park! A lot to do, walk around the trails and the park, playground and basketball court, tennis courts and baseball fields and downside is people bring dogs but don’t clean up their poop so u have to careful where u walk or ur going home with poop on ur shoes!
They have 2 Ball fields 2 T ennis courts beautiful to walk wonderful pond a great place to relax and enjoy your time
I used to like the place very much. Lately though, i always end up wishing i had chosen a different place. Food just isnt what it once was.
Fishing with my grandson. He had a great time.
Nice park but we went to see the fountain and lights and they were out of order.
Good place to hang out with your family and pets. I enjoy the place
Nice, open park. Lots of different activities for all ages and interests. Lots of Pokemon GO pokestops and gyms!
Nice relaxing not to busy and all sorts of activity spots plus kids playgrounds
Good park to take a walk with the family, you can also order a pizza few steps away like 3 mins, and you have kids activities inside the park.
Really great! Well maintained, spread out, and plenty to do.
Great place to play basketball, tennis, baseball, soccer and volleyball. All open to public including restrooms. Great for walks around the lake and a playground for the kids.
Nice place to read a book or hand out but water was unswimmable and pretty dirty from the geese. Town had closed it down due to bacterial levels.
Beautiful park. We go to sit by the water. Restful and relaxing even when geese arrive.
Great public place to walk with a nice loop. Warning: Many people are walking around without masks.
Great food everything is nice and clean great price s l l
Very pretty and clean! Nice walking trails!
Great place for kids of all ages
Great park to take the kids to play at. Basketball courts, tennis courts, nice playground and plenty of walking trails. For the most part, its pretty clean. Understand that this is a major spot for a lot of this area and surrounding areas to go so it can get busy on the weekends. Plenty of parking and plenty of space to enjoy a picnic lunch with the kiddos!
Nice place to take a relaxing walk.
Great park for the whole family... Beautiful views
Very nice place to bring the family
Great park and recreation services!
Great local park... Busy at times though
Great as a family park. Lots,yo do plenty of room to run around. Also nice playground and picnic pavilions.
Very clean, the playground was great for our kids
This place has been a favorite since we moved to the area. They have a giant playground with well-kept equipment and two large sandboxes full of toys. Tennis courts, baseball diamonds, and a pond perfect for birdwatching. Pack the kids, the dogs, and a picnic and check it out for sure.
The entire lake was frozen and we really had a great time. We also saw kids playing ice hockey.
Beautiful place to relax, meditate, walk or exercise. Nice playground for little kids. Good tennis courts. Basketball courts, ballfields, beach volleyball and more.
Decent Park, but nothing special
Awesome park great for kids and even a walk with pets.
Good place to relax and walk
The playground here has plenty of shade, and two huge sandboxes with lots of toys. The walking paths are nice too.
My son and I walk around the park often.
Place for a good walk
Perfect place for a family outing. A lake, baseball ground, tennis courts, basketball court and children play area.
Been here to walk, many times. Very peaceful. I would recommend coming here.
Lovely park with fenced playground, paved walking/biking path (also used for cars so beware), tennis courts, basketball courts, baseball fields, and a few pavilions you can use for parties (contact the town for reservations). There is a pond for watching wildlife and in the summer there are fountains that dancein time to music. Lovely!
Great place to walk, jog, run. Bring the dog. Kids can play on swing sets. Or you can relax in your car enjoying the view.
Delicious local pizza and subs
Very nice place to go alone or with the family to have a good time.
Best place to walk and enjoy beautiful scenery
Clean and well managed park.
Great park in Shrewsbury. Part of our life for me and my 10 yes old son.
Multiple structures for different age ranges, swings, and two huge sandboxes with toys. Areas with shade and sunny areas. Big tennis courts, baseball fields, basketball courts, and a squash wall. A nice path to follow around the small pond. The paths are shared with cars, everyone is respectful so it is fine but nice to know.Lots of fields and options to reserve gazebos. A pretty clean bathroom with running water. Sufficient parking.
Great place for a nature walk! Family and pet friendly.
It is a good place to walk around, dog friendly and lots of friendly walkers. the only thing that would be nice is if the cars had a dedicated Lane vs. Walkers but you just watch out for the cars... theyre not constant but they can drive where you might think youre just walking. So pay attention but definitely a nice walk around theres a playground basketball courts tennis courts
I visited this park so many times. All the time, my child enjoyed this park. This park has two sand boxes, toy cars and playground equipment. And two tennis courts or a big pond. Only one thing I dont like is birds poop are in the grass. So, please be careful when you walk in the grass.
I loved!
Nice place to walk
Basketball courts, tennis courts, and playgrounds oh my!!! This place is beautiful and majestic. Take the kids or a loved one for picturesque views or just have a peaceful walk or run with or without your favorite furry friend.
One of the best playgrounds in the area for kids 2-8. Two huge sandboxes. Great walking trails around the pond
Convenient. Great for kids
Great atmosphere and friendly place. Theres so much to do and enjoy while playing with kids at the park tennis with a friend bbq with family or even a nice peaceful walk to enjoy natures surroundings. Just beautiful park. I take my family here every chance I can.
Nice park with a easy to walk trail around a little pond. Pretty well maintained.
Classic shrewsbury park for recreation and community
Dean Park is probably the best gift for the Shrewsbury residents. The lake is beautiful and the ducks at play are very appealing to the kids. If you like summertime fishing a must place to visit. The play area is always bustling with the noise of the lilliputians. The play areas include tennis court, basketball court, soccer field baseball ground etc. The nature trail is very pleasant. There are couple of well maintained restrooms. Thanks to the authorities and visitors for keeping his place well maintained.
Beautiful park. Can be a little crowded sometimes.
Great for a low commitment run or walk around the pond. Adjacent rec area has picnic tables, shelters, tennis and bball courts. At times fountains in the pond are switched on
Very quiet and familiar. Beautiful lake. Geese are very friendly
Love this park! Had a bday there and it was a huge success. Great place for the family. Bathroom also on site.
Perfect to have a great time with family and friends. You could also have a party there. Clean, green and you name it.
Good place visit for family picnics or community outdoor events.
This park is very nice. I remember coming here when I was a kid all the time to play on the nice tennis courts and in the playground. They have a good amount of baseball fields. I remember seeing the ducks near the pond and skipping stones. I like that they had the colored water fountain shows at night. Im not sure if they still do that. Now coming back with my own kids, I see they have improved through kids playground which my 3 year old loves. Overall its a nice park to go to and even to walk around in on a nice day.
Lots to do basketball tennis handball baseball picnic area walking trails fountain s that are lit at night and public restrooms
Very nice park has baseball fields tennis courts basketball courts a park for chlildren and a trail worth a trip
Really nice and beautiful. Nice place to walk or watch sports being played
Beautiful, bucolic park great for walking, biking, basketball, or just lounging around.
Great place for a walk or to take the little one to the playground area. Tennis, baseball and basketball courts also available.
Its a cute park where we took the twins. Nicely maintained.
Small loop around the lakeFountain is niceKids have lot to playSmall place to walk but really good place
Good place to host Birthday Parties for kids...
Beautiful I walk here everyday I highly recommend it for morning walks afternoons with kids or a nice evening stroll to admire the light up water fountain
Nice park we had work group gathering here.
I really love this park. The playground is all fenced which makes it a safer place for the kids. It also has a nice walking trail around the water and sports facilities (basketball, tennis, soccer). The bathrooms are big which is nice (and super entertaining if you have a kid who likes echoes). During tennis season, the lights are close enough to the playground that you can go after dark which is also awesome. The only real downside is that the road into the park is very narrow and people are usually walking on one or both sides so you have to be extra careful (so you dont make pancake people, animals, bikes or cars)
Wonderful place. Gorgeous
It was a great part very clean and great for different age kids
Great safe place to walk or just relax you meet nice people and kids and cute puppies! Excellent walking area
It is a nice municipal park. With a little lake featuring a water fountain, a nice playground for little kids, some tennis and basketball courts and shaded paths (some paved) to walk or run on.
Awesome public park. The playground is simply amazing, and there are tennis courts, basketball, soccer and baseball fields... We had one of our sons birthdays here, and it was probably his best ever. All of his friends had the best time, and it was much cheaper than any other place.
Lovely park with beautiful pond. Dancing fountains in pond are activated several times a day and on occasion at night with accompanying music. Great area for walking exercises. Tennis and basketball courts. Three well maintained baseball diamonds. Two covered pavilions with plenty of benches for cookouts. Pavilions can be reserved for special occasions. Road and parking fields are plowed in winter and road and grassy areas are cleared of debris. Grass is mowed regularly and leaves are removed in the fall. Just a nice place to just sit on one of benches to relax and enjoy the scenery, I know I do!
Cool place
Great pizza
Great hiking trails, dog friendly, diverse forest, and a pretty pond. Lots of geese though!
Excellent place for kids of all ages. I also enjoy the long paved road around the pond for walk and jogging.
