Beautiful view of the hudson, lots of birds (and poop!) , an path to walk around and small beach which is close for the season.

I visited this park as part of the Mermaid Festival. By the…read moretime I arrived, there was no parking available at the park. It has a very accessible trail that is paved and allowed you to walk along the Hudson River. The trail was peppered with benches. I saw the lighthouse from afar. I didn't see anyone walking out to it, so I am assuming access was unavailable the day I was there. The restrooms weren't open. They provided port-o-potties. I'm not sure if it was as due to the festival or whether it was a common occurrence. There was also a nice children's play area. In order to give it a more representative review, I will have to return at a time when it is just serving as a park with no special events.

It's wheel chair accessible. Has clean bathrooms and play area for the kids. Interisting to note that it says NO DOGS, but you see people walking their dogs all over the place. Myself included! But all dogs are leashed and everyone responsibly clean up after their dog. That's a plus! Totally recommend and my new favorite spot to relax.

My wife and I start our day by visiting Bruce Park every single morning with our fur babies, and…read morehonestly, it's become an essential ritual for us. There is something incredibly grounding about catching the park early in the morning, especially when there's a blanket of fog hovering right over the Duck Pond. We use this time to soak in the serenity and wonder of nature, establishing peace with ourselves before we have to give the rest of our day to others. As the oldest coastal public park in Greenwich (Robert Moffat Bruce donated the 100-acre estate back in 1908), it's just a beautiful, historic piece of land. It is always incredibly clean and impeccably well-maintained. The landscape transitions seamlessly from open wooded areas to tranquil ponds with benches and scenic salt marshes. If you are into photography, this place is an absolute goldmine for flowers and wildlife. It's a diverse sanctuary for both resident and migratory birds. Depending on the season, I've been able to photograph everything from Great Blue Herons, Great Egrets, Mute Swans, and Double-crested Cormorants to Raptors like Red-tailed Hawks, Ospreys, and even wintering Bald Eagles. The songbirds (like Carolina Wrens and Tufted Titmice) and winter visitors like Buffleheads and Wood Ducks make it a birdwatcher's paradise. Beyond the wildlife and walking/jogging paths, the park has a ton of amenities--a great children's playground, gazebos, picnic areas, and scattered public art and sculptures. For sports, they have baseball/softball fields, tennis courts, and even a lawn bowling and croquet court. Public restrooms are also available and kept clean. Whether you're looking for a vigorous morning jog, a spot to bring the family, or just a quiet place to sit on a bench and watch the ospreys dive, Bruce Park is a local gem. Highly recommend an early morning visit!

Lovely and well maintained park…read more Lots of parking available surrounding the ponds along the park paths. Lots of walking/running paths throughout the park. A few benches around the park. The large sundial sculpture is an interesting attraction. There is a little diagram nearby explaining how the sundial works. There are also a few sculptures there as well. Very safe with lots of friendly park-goers. Public welcome...no town/county/state restrictions to my knowledge.

The staff is friendly and extremely knowledgeable about the animals they care for. The nature center is also home to several non-releasable birds of prey, including eagles, owls, and ravens. Each animal has been given a name, making the experience even more personal and engaging. They offer field trips, summer camps, and birthday parties, as well as special members-only events such as tie-dye activities and live butterfly releases. Walking the grounds is free, and parking is also free. Admission to the live animal museum is approximately $7 per person, but be sure to check their website, as prices may change from time to time. They have a small gift shop as well if you want to bring a souvenir home.

My family and I came here for the Fall Food Truck Festival and it was way more packed than I would have imagined. I really wanted to get here before it started so that we could get some choice eats before the crowds began to pile up but unfortunately, we arrived about 90 minutes after it began and the lines were already about an hour wait. IMO they had far too few trucks in attendance. When I last checked, over 20K people were interested in attending, via social media sites. My whole reason for coming was for the Cousins Maine Lobster food truck which was a little over an hour wait. Unfortunately, the food wasn't worth the trouble. I had their CT roll which was awesome. Hubby had their shrimp tacos and I tasted; they were good but on the sweet side. I also got their lobster tots which were ok and we both affef soups to our entrées. I got the lobster bisque which was way too sweet and I stole hubby's NE clam chowder which tasted good. I also brought home a whoopie pie and a couple of ginger ales. Whime I waited for my lobster fix, hubby waited on a 45-minute line for the Melt Mobile food truck. He got me a meatball melt which was great! He got himself the short rib melt which was even better. We also shared their cheesecake melt (cheesecake sandwiched between two slices of pound cake and grilled) which was divine! All in all, it was a great event and tons of people came out with their kids and their fur babies. They had live music and some kiddie attractions for entertainment. There was a bit of a walk from parking if you didn't get there early and the lines were seriously out of control but the Cousins food trucks (there were two) were very efficient in the way they organized their line (still over an hour wait). The Five Alarm Pizza Company, a goth-painted fire truck with a full equipped pizza oven built in it, even ran out of pizzas only 2 hours into the event. Next year, we're coming early and bringing chairs even though we were able to snag an empty bench at the kiddie playground.
