Was out driving around today looking for someone for the kids to play & randomly saw this park…read more.. Decided to pull in & give it a try... Its probably the best park I have seen/been to this summer... They had so many different little stations. They even have this Music area where there are drum like pedestals that when you bang on make music & big chime like things you can bang hammers off to make noise... it was super cool! There are several slides, plank like walking pedestals & monkey bars.. There is a sprinkler section... There are tons of Picnic tables under a covered roof to hide in the shade, you even have to walk over a bridge to get there... Kinda cool! Only downside, no close bathroom & its woodchips which I admit is great for when kids fall, but horrible for women in flip flops! Will defintely be coming back.

Great park, preferably for older children 6 and up. If…read moreyounger make sure you have your hands free and can walk through the obstacles with them. Lots to do! And they have a toddler area, but my toddler wasn't interested.

I really enjoyed the little waterfalls.. The rushing sound of water creates a calming effect and provides a sanctuary away from the bustle of cars. There is old rock structures that act as picture props.. There is plenty of space to bring the kids and have them run around! There are also picnic tables and a grilling area. A great location for a midday lunch! There was even wild life there. Im a nature lover so of course I had to get a picture with it!

A family tradition that always carries on is always stopping here. There's a lot of history to…read moreUncle Tim's Bridge dating back to the 20th century. The bridge crosses a creek that connects with the Cape Cod Bay, which corresponds with the tide. Speaking of tides, if it is low, you will smell the dirt. It's not that bad when you get use to it, but be aware. If you're better off coming if the tide is high, that is your choice. The view from there is great, overseeing Wellfleet and the Island. Parking can be found from 300 ft. down from the bridge. There is no sidewalk that connects to the lot, so please be careful. Once that's done, enjoy the stay!

The big Red Slide is so cool If you can stand the smell of the "beach" it's okay to sit on as long as you're 25-30 feet away from the water. DO NOT SWIM HERE! Apparently, the water is run off, from the Taunton River. Which I was not aware of at the time, though I was not surprised, IT SMELLS SO DISGUSTING!! The water looks yucky. Not your typical beach water. I have raised 6 children, so I'm not extremely sensitive to smells, that being said, I literally threw up A small amount of my nausea could be blamed for the Heat, But I normally tolerate the heat fairly well. I really wish I had read the reviews BEFORE I went here. A friend recommended it. So I didn't feel the need to...NEVER AGAIN! Not only that, while I was sitting on the "beach" I noticed a huge amount of very small children (2-5year olds) in the water & barely anyone watching them. So I counted...51 children in the water & only 6 adults? Most sitting on the "beach" That is 8.5 children PER adult, on average. Some of them had life jackets on, which I wouldn't think they would need if they were being watched? There weren't really any waves Although, that's just my opinion. Personally, I would never have taken all 6 of my children to the beach alone. I would have had another adult come with us. I didn't hear any "loud Music" or anyone yelling, arguing, or see any fighting, like I read in other reviews. The picnic tables were mostly taken up by Birthday Parties. Also, there is no where to change a baby, & only 2 toilets per gender. So plan accordingly! ‍I definitely expected better from Somerset!

A brand new state…read morepark Sweets Knolls is a brand new state park that is still in the development stages. It is open to the public but to get into the park it looks like you are driving into someones driveway and then walking into their backyard. Not a lot of parking right now but it doesn't matter since know one seems to even know this is a park. It does have a large sign but there still is a lot of work to be done here. The park right now is pretty much just open fields with some trails down by the Taunton River. Some great fishing in the river and there also are places to launch a canoe or kayak. Lots of great old pine and oak trees are on the property as well as a little pond. The area was heavily occupied by the Natives American tribes and lots of artifacts have been found nearby so I suspect lots of historic treasures will be found down by the river by people with a keen eye. The property also has several miles of old rail line that will probably be turned into a walking and biking trail. The land is pretty flat so it's not a very challenging hike but I imagine this will become more of a casual place where families will come to walk, fish, look for birds or have a picnic. Sweet Knoll is indeed open to the public but it still needs some work to fulfill it's final purpose. It's great that the state purchased this land because the area is beautiful and allows access to the river. Right now it feels like you are walking around someones backyard but I suspect in the future that will change.

Like other reviewers said it does look like you're going into someone's private driveway but its…read morenot. We went and after we checked out the pond we went on a trail that was going in the direction of somerset. I think most other reviewers went the opposite direction. I didn't see any markers but the trails were easy to follow. Although I would be weary of people crossing the train bridge, especially children as it did feel a little unsafe. Overall I thought this was a pretty fun place to explore.
