There are basketball courts, a baseball field, 2 tennis courts and a pretty nice playground overlooking the beach and ocean. It's a fantastic place to take a kayak out or do some fishing. There a slightly rocky beach that gradually goes into the ocean. This is clearly a local spot and even though it is less than 5 minutes from Plymouth Rock it was nearly empty on a Sunday afternoon. It's pet friendly and there were multiple dogs jumping in the ocean and running around. There are also some restrooms if needed. There was no parking fee either.

Many people walk their dogs here, so poop is common but its not so bad that I don't come back. They let the grass grow tall throughout the summer allowing many birds and other small creatures to live there. Then they cut it short for the winter. Paths stay fairly clear, though they can get muddy after rain. Don't wear your best shoes here! Some paths head into the woods around the edge, so bring your bug repellent. My favorite part of the park is the rocks by the water and the grand view of the bay and the Standish Monument sticking up out of the trees in the distance.

AN ABSOLUTELY MUST DO! 5 STARS! THIS IS ONE OF MASSACHUSETTS BEST KEPT SECRET HIDDEN GEMS WITH FREE…read moreADMISSION & FREE PARKING! We liked it here so much we came back TWICE! Jenney Pond Park looks like it's in some movie from some make believe town with a Picture Perfect New England setting. This place is Fantastic for Picnics, Walks, Connecting with Nature & Wildlife & De- Stressing & Relaxing. It's just a 2 minute car ride from The Mayflower Ship & Plymouth Rock yet feels like you are hours away. It's completely hidden. The property is 13 acres large, open to the public & has 0.3 miles of public trails. We stumbled onto this hidden gem after parking here to go the Plimoth Grist Mill. After exiting the Grist Mill we walked back to the car & decided to explore. When we saw the fall foliage & picnic area & green grass that was enough to realize this is where we were going to have lunch. We went to one of the top rated restaurants in town Dillion's Local just a few minutes away & got some really good Food to go & eat here. What a beautiful setting to have lunch & see the fall foliage, The Picnic Area, the Walkway, the Pond & the Wildlife & the old wooden bridge. It looks like one of those fake Calendar Pictures but this place is real. We walked all around & saw all the White Swans, Ducks & other Birds. We were completely captivated by this one beautiful white swan that was Cleaning up the Environment & clearing away greenery in the pond - Pretty Amazing! . Now you can come here for Free & have a picnic & walk all around. Be sure to walk across the street & see the Plimoth Grist Mill with its 14 foot tall Water Wheel & Waterfall. It's Beautiful. You have to purchase a Ticket to actually go inside the Mill. But you can get up close for Free right next to the Mill & even visit their tiny gift shop which they sell locally sourced regional Cape Cod products & their own corn milled on the premises. The Grist Mill is only open on the Weekends & Holidays. If you are going to go inside the Grist Mill I recommend that you purchase a Heritage Weekend Pass to see The Grist Mill, The Mayflower Ship & The Plimoth Plantation. You'll Save some Money. Now we could not do all the things we wanted to do in Plymouth in one day so we had to come back the next day to complete our journey. No complaints - because it just gave us another reason to have lunch here again. This time we brought our own Food in a Cooler & enjoyed the picturesque Fall Setting once again. This place is great year round with different wildlife at different seasons. In the spring, herring can be seen going up the fish ladder by the Grist Mill on their way to Billington Sea to spawn. I love places like this that you completely stumble upon & end up being some of the best moments of your trip & it cost NOTHING! It used to be, you had to have Mega Bucks & be really rich to have The Good Life, not anymore. The Game has changed. You've Been Upgraded. Now You Can Live Like A King On A Limited Budget!

If you're looking for a secluded hidden gem along North River, boy do I have the spot for you!!…read moreIt's called Couch Beach... not sure as to why, but if I had to guess it's because its quiet, quaint and cozy... a place you can relax and enjoy the moment, just like being at home on the couch! Couch beach can be found by entering Twomile Cemetery. There is a small dirt parking lot on the right a little further back on the right hand side. From that little parking lot it's about a 10 minute walk down a dirt trail that is gated off. Don't let it scare you off, it's just stating that motor vehicles aren't allowed... your bikes and feet are welcome to pass through. Once you get back to the beach area you'll see there are some trails, a seating and picnic table area, and a small sandy beachfront. It would be a great place to put a standup paddle board or kayak in the water, however it might be a bit of a hike with it to get there since you'd have to carry it from the parking lot that again is about 10 mins away (maybe about 1/3 of a mile). However, pack up that fishing gear and beach chairs, those are easy to carry and the perfect spot for it. The lake water doesn't seem as clear or clean as the ocean might, but it is beautiful and much warmer! The views here are spectacular and just lovely. Feels like the perfect day date spot, a girlfriend day of reading & rose, or just a place to unwind alone. Highly recommend if you are in the area or fairly close by and looking for a lower trafficked beach area to enjoy!

A MUST Do! 4 & 1/2 STARS! Brewster Gardens is a Free Park with metered parking across the street…read more It is located just down the street from the Mayflower II Ship & is a short walk from Plymouth Rock & Plymouth Memorial Park. It is directly across from Cole's Hill. This tranquil peaceful park was created during the early 1920's. The area encompasses the original garden plot granted to Elder William Brewster in 1620. The Pilgrims settled here because of the abundance of fresh water & the many springs. Another reason why they settled here was there's also thatch that grew along the water's edges that provided necessary roofing materials for houses. There are bronze statues & sculptures here honoring Plymouth's immigrant settlers. The bridge with the water flowing beneath it from the Town Brook is a beautiful little area to just sit, chill & relax. There are benches, green grass, trees & flowers & is very picturesque. This is a great place to have a picnic. While we were there a wedding party was taking all kinds of pictures in this lush green landscape. A great scenic place to have your lunch or just to meander.

A group of friends and I spent a day here not long ago clearing brush. We did a good deed, had fun and got loads of exercise. The barn here is quite impressive too. The walk we took this weekend was at the adjacent Turkey Hill very early morning on this beautiful sunny Easter before heading out to be with other family. There are easily walkable trails and nice views. It was just a pleasure to be here noticing the newly greening bushes and trees and enjoying some quiet time outdoors. Hub, our dog and I all had a really energizing, pleasant morning. It was the church of the outdoors we decided to attend for our services today. I love feeling such joy at being outdoors on a great spring day. Both of these place are local properties owned by the Trustees of the Reservations. We're lucky that there are many of these properties in these parts. I can't urge you enough to become an annual Trustees member and support the great things they do like perserving these open and special places and spaces. There are Trustees owned properties throughout the entire Commonwealth so you'll have plenty of places to explore, mostly for free with your card.

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.

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!
