Deerfield is a beautiful town park with so many memorials and things to do. I enjoy the walking…read morepaths - there are paved paths around the playgrounds, the Senior Center, and by the memorials, and I especially like the wooded cross country paths. For the kids, there are two playgrounds - one for toddlers and one for older kids. It's really nice that the toddler playground is fenced to protect the children from cars. There is also a splash pad during the summer and children really seem to love this new addition to the park. For sports fans, there are soccer fields, tennis courts, a baseball field and a basketball court. Recently a disc golf course was added as well. The park is really pretty in the spring with numerous flowering trees, and it is well maintained. There are bathrooms, plenty of parking areas, a snack bar that is often open during sporting events, and the Smithfield Senior Center is in Deerfield Park as well. The memorials at Deerfield are beautiful and are definitely worth a stop while visiting the park. The Veteran's memorial is lovely and there is a very touching memorial to Smithfield young people who have passed on. Lots of benches to relax on, a gazebo, and many shaded places. There's also a small sledding hill for young children, and a larger hill for those who are more adventurous. Deerfield is also used for summer outdoor concerts, food truck nights and the Smithfield 4th of July fireworks. Love this park!

I bring a handful of almonds because I heard peanuts were no good for squirrels. Occasionally a blue Jay will follow you flying from tree to tree. You can walk along the lake for a bit if your feet prefer softer ground but then you have to get back on the tar again. You might see a couple of beautiful swans, geese and ducks. But don't feed them bread. A bag of defrosted mixed vegetables is okay. There are a few benches along the way. There are no potty facilities so go before you go. I'm wondering if taking my kayak would be worthwhile because it's such a small lake. It really should be called a pond. It is rather cute and I wish it had a bench close to the parking lot so I can bring my guitar and not disturb the neighbors. It is also a neighborhood and the people living there keep it nice.

Right when I started walking towards the park, I was greeted with action: a mink was chasing a rat…read moreand eventually did have it for lunch. This led me to pay close attention to what other animals were around. I came across a couple birds, one more mink, and a lot of Canada geese, some of which were chilling on a house's lawn. They were fearless and started coming towards me but stopped about 6 feet away. The loop around the body of water is about half a mile so it makes for a perfect casual stroll; a lot of people were walking their dog, talking on the phone, or on a run. Two sides of this park has houses, and it seems like people respect the neighbor's privacy and peace since it was quiet. There's a dock to fish, along with other spots. There's a little library where you can take/drop off books. They have lots of benches along the way and the entire path is paved. There is a parking lot across the park; it seems like it belongs to a school so in the summer it's convenient to park there but it might be a different story during the school year.

This park has made major improvements over the last few years to help keep it clean and safe. The sandbar tends to get dangerous when tides are high, so they added signage for people to be more aware of the dangers of walking out to the tip. 10/10 would recommend for picnics and gathering sea glass!

There are also a sledding hill, baseball diamonds and a skate park at the base. I come here for the hiking. For being only 10 minutes from downtown providence, it's very impressive. It's small, just shy of 90 acres, but the trail network is fantastic. The views of Providence from the top of the hill and the vista are great.There's a map at the entrance to the park, I usually just do one big loop when I visit. There's a trail map you can print out on the website as well. This is an urban park, so litter can be a problem. Please do your part and bring your trash out with you.

I felt my cortisol drop significantly just after a few steps on the trail. At one point, the Providence noise pollution almost disappeared & all I could hear was birds & bugs & wind. Unfortunately it's a seriously confusing smorgasbord of trails. I had to pull up AllTrails a few times, which is borderline embarrassing, considering how small of a park this is. I'm not sure I really followed any of the proper trails, just kinda zigzagged around. I would've felt more at ease if the trails were marked more clearly. Still highly recommend as a great green space. Enjoy!

The park holds a lot of sentimental value for the city because it houses the Roger Williams statue and tomb. Personally, I appreciate how well maintained the park is and how peaceful it is. On warmer days, it can get a little busy, but it's a great place to relax. When I'm need of a little reprieve I like to bring my blanket and meditate on the grass. I also appreciate its location being so close to Brown and downtown Providence simultaneously. It's convenient and peaceful.

This seems to be a duplicate listing since I already reviewed the other Prospect Terrace Park page…read more I'll just add my two cents anyway. A beautiful and historic park with views of downtown Providence. It is located right on a hill and has the statue and tomb of Roger Williams with his hand out. There were benches and a small path throughout. A great place to picnic, watch the sunset, and just relax. The Rhode Island State House and Providence Place Mall can be seen from there. There is no parking lot just street parking. The houses nearby are historic. This was a frequent stop for author HP Lovecraft. No wonder it is called "The Jewel of the City".
