Having grown up in this town, this is the superior playground by far! Wooden playgrounds are the…read morebest! When it was at risk of closing in 2013, I helped with the community-build of the new park and it was an amazing experience. i love how the new design retains many of the old elements, while also being higher so that adults can fit on the structure (the roofs on the old structure were too short for adults to accompany kids). Also in this new design they used the plastic-like wood for decking and pressure treated wood so it will last much longer than the old design.

Very beautiful. It's the kind of place you would love to hangout with friends and family. Or just…read morehaving that me time. Again... very beautiful.

Also a bunch a courts behind the mall too but I don't really use those. NOW, if we could just get rid of that stupid ice cream truck and it's $4 treats, I would be a happy mom.

We went for the zip line but sadly that was taken down. The park is not that clean either, with…read morelots of litter and alcohol bottles/cans scatter across the grass field. The play area itself is fine for the little kids, though. There are a couple of benches for the kids. Parking was easy right at the school. This park needs to be cleaned up...The people showing up there didn't make us that comfortable either. Car parked next to me as I was about to leave was an old SUV with like 12 people packed inside!? Kind of sus. No pictures taken, as it was not worth it. I'd skip this park and find another if you have the means of getting around.

Upper (baseball and football) field was set in synthetic turf in 2011 - which solved age old wetness problem by allowing water run-off from two adjoining hills to sink below new field base (an ancient brook is culverted under both fields) - and large lights installed which are left on to 10:15 P.M. most of the year.

Spent 2 hours walking around the main trail and enjoying the views of green trees. The air was fresh and there were a few people walking along. Park closes at 7pm! Aside from a small bathroom shed, I'm not sure if there's any other nearby bathrooms but there were a lot of picnic benches.

Our almost 3-yo could do most things, but I think even a kid in the low-elementary grades would have a good amount of fun here. We found 2-hour parking along the side of the Cambridge Common; most of the rest was resident only. When we visited in the summer, there was a porta-pottie nearby.

If you drive past it to get to the end point on Google maps, then you are too far and will be at the exit point of the parking lot. I don't understand why playgrounds don't have trees or shades? Why? The Spray Deck is open from 8 AM to 8 PM daily. Wading Pool is open 6/15/2024 - 9/2/2024 10:15am - 5:45pm. Parking is maximum 4 hours, regardless of weekday/weekend/holiday. There is an ice cream truck there sometimes. $5 or $6 for a sugary treat. (It's almost just sugar water, no ice cream content.) No hand sanitizers outside of the porta potty, so bring your own. Plenty of free parking.

Found this & through it in the Bookmarks, was out yesterday & it was Hot so we decided to take a look... Pulled up right in front of the gate & parked which was great... Was instantly pleased just from looking from the street... Love that the whole park is gated and all the parents there used them every time they went in & out... (I have a 2 YO that loves to run away) There are TONS of tables (some in shade) there are 2 huge playhouse thingys, one is for smaller kids & my son LOVED IT. We walked over to try out the water sprinkler (which is hand activated) but he doesnt love water soo much... There is a cool see saw but he had no desire to try it out, so back to the slide we went... Hate that this park is soo out of the way from home, but if we are ever in the area guarantee we are stopping in.
