There is a connected playground with areas for 2-5 year olds and 5-10 year olds. Really fun and interactive features like pirate ships, spinning features, and slides. The entire play area is rubber so you don't have to worry about falls or wood chips. There is a nice grassy and shaded area in the middle to set up chairs and a picnic. A few tables are available but with no shade. You are also next to a dog park, hiking trails, basketball courts, baseball fields, and tennis courts. There is something for the entire family. Highly recommend!

Absolutely gorgeous FENCED IN playground/splash pad with bathrooms and plenty of shaded areas. Please note the splash pads don't start splashing until 10 am. We travel to the cape every year and i'm so thankful we came across this spot during our annual visit this summer. We spent almost 4 hours here. Bring a packed lunch, a dry set of clothes for the kiddos and a book to read while your kids live their best lives. Also, a lot of the local moms frequent here often and they were very friendly! We will be back :)

Wow! What an…read moreadorable Audubon location. We visited during the rain so we didn't see as much of the trails as we would have normally - but still had fun with what we did see. We had 3 generations visiting - my husband and me, our 4 year old daughter, and Grandparents. The Discovery Center just opened so their isn't much there yet - but the friendly staffer more than made up for that. The staffer took time to show exhibits to my daughter and show the grandparents their interactive bird call computer. Made the museum part feel so much more welcoming. Thank you!!! We also stopped by the wooden playground and took a lap around the pond. We'll definitely return in dry weather. We saw some goats hanging out under a tent to escape the rain too. They're cute.

I was thrilled to discover this park, as there is a lot to do. The main attraction is the sports…read moreoffered, baseball, football, soccer, and basketball to name a few. There is also a playground as well bringing on the energy for the youngsters. The park even has a path, branching and beginning right off the CCRT, leading to the playground, and then past that, loops around the baseball and soccer field, with another trail branching off, leading to the entrance and the playground once again. The walk is quite enjoyable, with nice views all around. The bathroom though needs to get touched up, in terms of it being dirty.

I used to come here with my dad to go fishing so many MANY years ago so when we came back for my "…read moreomg I'm old" birthday I had to stop by. I lost my dad 7 years ago but as I was standing on the pier I could hear him yelling at me as if I were purposely catching puffer fish that he had to fight off the hook. Yes, I admit to getting teary eyed with nostalgia. It is a really cute beach with a nice jetty. The pier is great for high tide fishing and low tide viewing. The water is super clear with no snags or rocks to catch your line.

Amazing staff very helpful went above and beyond to help us out. Will be a spot we frequent in the…read morefuture fishing trips.

Gateway to the sea…read more Hyannis Harbor is frequently called to Gateway to the Sea. A bit of hyperbole perhaps since there are lots of other ways to get to the sea on Cape Cod but there is no mistaking that Hyannis does indeed have a nice harbor. One of the nicest area along the harbor is a little park named after Michael Aselton, a police officer that died in the line of duty in 1983. The park was officially dedicated in 1996 and includes a few walking trails, benches and of course some view lovely views. The park is located right next to the Hyannis Maritime Museum and the one and a half mile long Hyannis Kennedy Legacy Trail runs right through the park. A nice park in a very nice place dedicated and named after someone who sacrificed all in the line of duty.

Since this is bigger and more room, there are benches along with picnic tables provided. The view is beautiful at the viewpoint, having a much clearer visibility all around the river leading to Lewis Bay.
