Without a doubt, this is the NICEST playground you will find around…read more The Lincoln Elementary school has TWO seperate playground areas and BOTH are awesome. Both are completely fenced in by new black chain-link fence with closable doors. Both have that rubbery-surface thing going on which is awesome. Both have great jungle-gym sets made of all that new steel and plastic. They are both open for public use all the time and are plain awesome. They are different in that one is smaller and made for the younger kids, but the big kids will love it too. The main one along Washington Street is huge - has a giant slide, 2 tubes to climb through, and awesome climbing things. Kids love it. It's great cause once kids get bored of one playground, just walk around the corner to the next one. Awesome place to kill time with your nephews.

This is a great area for walks. It feels safe and secure. There are sometimes people flying planes…read moreand they are very friendly people and the planes are fun to look at. The paths are worn unevenly so people with balance issues should keep an eye out as they walk. I really enjoy this park for quick walks.

After growing up in the area and recently moving back, I had no idea until recently that this park…read morewas right next to the Burlington Mall--now I know! There are a number of different trails to explore that are well marked/kept (similar to all Trustees spaces). After some rain in the area, some of the areas are a bit muddy, so one may want to keep an eye on the weather/bring hiking shoes or other shoes you don't mind getting some mud on. You can also hear the hum of the freeway nearby. I also saw a wild turkey on this hike, which I trailed behind for about 10 minutes, haha! Glad to run into a fellow hiker on this trail! :)

Fun pool & splash pad combo. The pool doesn't get too deep and having both options is great. The…read morepool itself typically has leaves and pine needles, but it's surrounded by trees so that's to be expected. It's only $3 to get in, and Stoneham residents get access an hour earlier than the general public. During the week the Stoneham Boys & Girls Club also has free lunches here for kids of all ages.

The ground is really good thick wood chips which I assume will cushion any fall... There are several toys & trucks which have been left by visiting people which I think is great... Toys to play with and then leave there, what a great concept! The playground jungle gym area itself is small but enough for several kids to play on at a time... There is a HUGE open field here also & it is not fenced in at all, its completely open but it is a good distance to street & parking lot... Will def come back when the weather allows & it is also DIRECTLY across the street from the zoo!!! Perfect room for a picnic before or after!

I usually bike over you can go along the road with a few spots going through bike paths. Overall a beautiful spot. The water is impossible warm even at the beginning on the summer.

Went on a hot day recently in mid afternoon. There was someone smoking and drinking IN the pond…read more I mentioned to the smoker & the DCR official on site. DCR official was clearly stoned and gave some excuse about how the higher ups told him not to enforce the rules. No one stopped or did anything. Would avoid except off season and early in the morning. It's gross.

80% of our time here is spent at the new Wilmington dog park. The park is decent but man does it…read morehave some serious flaws that I will address But first the positives; there are about 25 parking spots and if there isn't a softball game going on at the park below, it'll never be full. People are coming and going all the time to the dog area or on a quick hike in the back Its not like the Fells where you have bike warriors revving up for a 30 mile day on the trails and they never leave. The hiking trail that goes around the park and through some pretty desolate wetlands that look like dinosaurs live in them won't take you more than 15 minutes to complete. There are some side trails but most lead to the wetlands and you can't go any further. It's a nice jaunt after work for you and Fido. And then there is the controversial dog park. Firstly, they don't collect any trash here or at other parks in Wilmington so be prepared to take your poop bag with you. I don't know why they couldn't have made an exception here because there are way too many disgusting owners who just leave it behind for the town crew to retrieve. The park itself was built on a hill and its 100% sand. This was a major blunder because the drainage is terrible and either pools at the bottom in a disgusting puddle of dog uuhhmm things, or washes the sand out of the park completely. This really needs to be fixed because it's not going to hold up over time. Most of the dog owners are good even though there are some people who can't seem to realize their pet shouldn't be around others before they end up hurting another in the park. This is great for the area in terms of the benefit it adds but still has a long way to go to become a top notch park.

Poop bags everywhere, poop in the same sand my dog plays in. Just gross and unsanitary pretty much…read morethe same as a litter box to play in NASTY! We honestly dont want to touch our dog after she's been rolling around in smelly sand. Now our dog has irritated eyes and skin. Unless Wilmington DPW changes the layout of the park, plus supplies a barrel for poop bags and trash, Burlington Dog Park will be our alternative. *Sad because our dog loves going to this park but her health comes first as does ours. Not liking the sand kicking up in the air then having to breath it in. So unhealthy for all!

It is a very small loop trail with sign posts markings noting some of the natural environment area. It is a very flat and easy walk- with a packed down gravel trail. I recently was taking a walk with a coworker and we can across a flock of turkeys pecking and mulling about! There is a small parking lot and access off Rifle Range Road.

Too small should be not considered a Trail, it was just a loope around the buildings.read more
