Some very nice basketball and tennis courts as well as a lovely gazebo for picnics and very gentle hiking trails with soft pine needles are found within the park. The park is situated right next to the 22 mile Cape Cod Rail Trail that goes through several towns and meanders down to the ocean for those intrepid enough to brave the chilly water to take a dip. The fact that the bike path goes through towns means it easy to stop and load up with liquid or better yet ice cream. The park is well used during the summer months and is also used for X-country skiing and snow shoeing in the winter. A lovely park to enjoy some activities or just find a peaceful and quiet corner for some relaxing and reflection.

However, there was another playground hidden behind the tennis courts that had plenty of trees and shade. Plus it was sand instead of wood chips. The pond also has a nice sandy wading area for little ones to splash around in. Saw a few dogs in the water but not sure if they are technically allowed.

Most of the trees are pines so the hiking is very soft because of the pine needles, and the smell of the pine trees and ocean mixing together is wonderful. Scrago Lake is a whole lot warmer than the always cold as @#$% direct ocean beaches of Cape Cod Bay and usually much, much calmer. A nice place to bring the family and little kids when you don't want them to drown, get washed out to sea, or get eaten by giant kraken. There is a fee for parking cars during the summer but if you happen to know someone in the area they'll probably have a sticker and you can bum a ride with them. There is no charge if you bike or walk and in the off season you can park anywhere you want. A lovely and peaceful little area that is a very pleasant place to explore, take a short and easy hike or perhaps do some swimming. A great place to spend some time and energy no matter what the season.

Picture a lovely summer night when the park is filled with families sitting on blankets, dancing, balloons, after a visit to the nearby Candy Manor and a live band playing for 90 minutes. I've been coming to Chatham since I was a baby and the BEST thing about this particular park is the free band concerts that are held here. According to the Chatham Band website, they just finished up their 85th year of performing concerts. The bandstand is named after Whitney "Whit" Tileston, who was one of the popular band leaders and the one I remember the most from my childhood. Whit passed away back in 1995, so it's nice to see this memorial to him! There is a small parking lot next to the bandstand, by the Impudent Oyster, but that will likely be filled when in season. If you don't mind a walk, I recommend parking behind Ben Franklin or by Yankee Ingenuity. The park is kind of quiet most of the year, but it's a nice place to take a break when you are strolling through this quaint New England town. There are some benches spread throughout the park. Thankfully, the town has added a building adjacent to the park with public restroom facilities.
