The park itself had a very scenic waterfront view and I believe the pictures I posted to Yelp can attest to the serenity and beauty of the park. Well worth the side trip. It is a backdrop to a wonderful city that I am sure to never forget.

No owner in sight. More than once I had to run, for what I imagined was my life, as a big, vicious looking dog ran straight to me full speed. I read two 13 year old girls, living off of the park, and the dad were viciously mauled and disfigured, by a dog. Look it up in the old Point Pleasant chat logs and in I Think The Guardian. But, it's nice for occasional walks and they have public restrooms that are open

The cutest little park in Dartmouth that you've never heard of…read more Graham's Grove is barely noticeable; you've probably driven by it dozens of times completely unaware of its presence. Sitting just across from the Braemar Superstore, this little park has quite a lot going for it - y'know, other than size. It has a swimmable beach and a dock; both are popular points for kayakers and canoers to put their boats into the water. It has a few open clearings facing Lake Banook - great spots for picnics. There are some benches and picnic tables also littered throughout the space. It's also conveniently located on a multi-use trail that connects between Sullivan's Pond and Shubie Park. To paraphrase Vinyl Cafe, "It may not be big, but it's small."

As long as the sounds of the nearby rifle range don't bother you, this is a very good place to get some exercise, or simply go for a leisurely stroll and enjoy the sounds of the birds in the trees and the peaceful flow of the Sackville river, which runs adjacent to a good part of the trail. In the Fall, this area is an especially beautiful place to admire the colors of the leaves and enjoy the crackle beneath your feet of those that have fallen from the trees.

Especially on cool autumn days when the sun isn't beating down at you too hard, but it's just nice enough to wear a light sweater. I wouldn't say this park is a destination necessarily unless you have kids or maybe a dog you're walking in the area, but it's a nice place to walk through on your way to or from Quinpool.

You may see the odd "beach whistle" or garbage floater, but if you set your gaze to the sky, you'll be tricked into believing you're at the edge of some glorious lake or ocean. This little green patch sticks out into the water; small and simple, it's perfect for lounging with a book or bringing a yoga mat down to do your practice. The space is close enough to the road that the hum of vehicles zipping past remains present, but even closer to the water so that the lap of waves is mainly what you'll hear. If you live in the Quinpool area, this little trove is a perfect knoll to visit with a picnic (and perhaps a bottle of wine) during an early summer evening. It's close enough that it's not a huge venture, but far enough that you get to indulge in a nice stroll and the gorgeous scenery care of the arm.
