Terrible experience, My mother brought her service dog on the 4th of July. The rude and…read moreinconsiderate kid at the entrance asked what kind of service the dog did. When I told him it was my mother's emotional support animal he said, they're not allowed. I have taken this same dog to this park at least twice and it was never an issue. She has a special collar and identification, we even have a doctor's note. I don't get the fuss and bog deal... In my mother's case, she has PTSD, it's crucial for us to have the dog at all times. If you're an animal lover and cannot leave the house without your service animal, do not waste your time and/ or your $25. This parking fee of what people pay to park at amusement parks lol Never again.

It's got 2 tennis courts and 2 basketball courts if your into that sort of thing. You can swim here but the sand isn't very nice. It's more of a good quiet place to sip an iced coffee and read a good book. The sunset is always nice over the water and you can watch the sailboats go through the bridge which is always nice.

This did not disappoint. The girls are currently 3, 6, and 7, with varying levels of adventurousness and physical confidence, and they all absolutely loved it. The zipline was a big hit, as was the climbing wall cube thingie. Lots of room to spread out, well maintained play structures that appeal to many ages, and good coffee close by. What's not to like?

This place should be on every persons itinerary when you are visiting this area! Castle Rock Park…read morewas just stunning! The cliffs, the water the views were just breathtaking! It's a wonderful place to go just to "soak it all in" and take some really beautiful photos. I honestly wanted to leave this place 5 stars so bad but the only thing was stopping be was the hike down to the beach area. There's no pathway and you have to climb over slippery rocks and be very careful even when wearing the right shoes. If you are physically able to go down there though, it's definitely worth it.

OK, Castle Rock Park is cute! We found it on a whim while driving. Its a teeny tiny park, with…read moremaybe 2 benches and a nice view of the water. You'll see a very casual sign nestled between two houses (one is the castle-like private estate the park is named for). To be honest, I was more enthralled with the castle-like home, but alas, it's a private residence and very exclusive, so you can only see a tiny bit of it. It's hard for a coastal park to blow me away because I have some wonderful ones where I live. But, if you're trying to catch some water views while in Marblehead, you should stop by. I noticed a couple climbing down the rocks and foraging the shoreline, but I can't speak to if that is safe or recommended. There's free street parking and it would be a cool place to take a picnic. When we visited, it was totally quiet and private feeling.

Two dog parks, a huge playground where we had a picnic, horses, a very large cow and many smaller animals in the children's barn. Plenty of space to run around and very nice, clean restrooms.

I feel badly saying this, but when we pulled up from the GPS, we laughed. The lighthouse is a very minimal, old, not inviting, colorless structure. There's almost no public seating. There are barely any signs explaining the area. It has so much potential but none of it is utilized. A lot of tourists were milling about with similar confusion. On a funnier note, a local here told me that Marblehead, MA will sometimes use a lighthouse photo of the one from my state in Marblehead, OH because they also agree there's is disappointing. Three stars for the surrounding waters if you're not used to seeing water.

I was here for a few hours on a June Wednesday and really enjoyed it here. There aren't many waves, making Dane Street Brach a great spot for families with young children.

There are some draw backs. The water is only 2-3 feet deep for a good quarter of a mile from the shore, especially at low tide it is a challenge just getting into the water because of all the damn rocks! Otherwise, it's nice being able to go for a swim and yet be a 5 minute walk from downtown Beverly. It seems to be a challenge to find a good place to swim, in Lynn the red algea ruins the beach (but I have heard it is well under control this year) and for something close and quick Dane Street will do.
