This is a good place for a stroll with your pet and there's a small trial. Half of the road is…read morepaved and the other half is not. Not really a big place but it's decent for a peaceful stroll. Depends on the time and day as to when you go to really encounter some busy traffic. I had gone on a Sunday and thought it was quite. I parked at the back by the houses not sure if there's any other entrance for the park but this one surely had some limited parking by the residential houses.

Ah yes, the exotic Menots. This is the forest where all the high schoolers come to drink at night,…read morebut don't worry during the day it's super family friendly. One word to perfectly describe this getaway? Snatched. Menots is absolutely snatched. Have I been coming here every single day of quarantine? Yes. Have I memorized the signs on every tree around the pond? Maybe also yes. Did I have an absolutely lit epic banger of a sixth birthday party here? Affirmative. Have I ever fished in the pond? Absolutely not I will never stoop to that level of human depreciation that pond is definitely fuxin toxic it's so nasty and people who let their kids splash around in it are actually tapped.

Not too far off the Minuteman biketrail and ice cream in Arlington Heights. There's a hill in the middle of the park that is a great snow sledding spot in the winter!

This is why I hate yelpers. They give 1 star when it shouldn't be one star. Yes I understand you're…read moreupset about the skateboard park, but McLennen Park is not worth a 1 star review. There is much more to do here than skateboarding. It is an awesome spot to walk, especially the back portion of the park away from 2A ... which is beauitful and parallels a river. Great around fall foliage time as well. You can combine this walk with Whipple hill reservation which is just down the street to the parking area trail head. Overall it is a great park.
