Thompson's Field shows up on a search for "dog parks'. It does not fit the description, as there are no fenced areas where otherwise on-leash dogs can play safely off leash. Thompson's is a large, undeveloped conservancy area with several walking trails where dog owners are comfortable walking their dogs on- and off-leash. There are trash containers and lots of animal scat on and near trails along with thorns, nettles, and other things to get caught in dogs coats. read more

This hidden gem has 2-3 miles of wooded trails for trailing running, dog walking, and light hiking…read more While the paved rail trail and the small beaches along the way are fun to explore, it's the wooded trails that are a win for me when I want a shaded run that's easy on the knees. Trails are well maintained and easy to navigate. Parking is available from the Main St Rail Trail Lot. For the wooded trail, you can either access it from the smaller secondary lot or take the main Rail Trail about a quarter mile down towards the river until you start seeing small paths on your left. There is a dirt service road with power lines running parallel to the rail trail that you will cross over. These power lines will also help navigate you back if you get turned around. I had to knock of a star because the trails are not marked so you can get turned around. Luckily the loops are short so you can't get too lost but don't be surprised if you end up in someone's driveway or come across a dirt road you weren't expecting. There are a few spots along the loops that have benches if you want to take a break and enjoy the views.

Great place to walk the dog. Beautiful views of the river and marshes along the way. However,…read moretrails are not well-marked so you're never sure exactly where you are (as a newbie). Clear trail markers would be very helpful. Though there were several dogs off-leash, most were controlled by their owners. Definitely worth a visit!

Cool glacial rock. Plenty of hiking trails. Rock is not that large for climbing, but it is cool…read more Plenty of parking. Nicely shaded. Lots of stories abound about the history. Climbing under the rock too. Indian stories and takes about the rock are listed on a plaque on the rock. Not, necessarily a day long event, but cool on a nice day.

There are fun little exhibits to check out as well as a small cute playground. You can also hike along the beach and tidal pools during low tide with beauty views of Sandy Neck beach across the harbor. You could do a beach day here as well as there are small Sandy areas for chairs but it's more of a salt water marsh experience than an ocean beach. There is a small fee per person. Plenty of parking by the visitor center and a small lot by the beach entrance. Definitely worth checking out with the kids!

A little over a year ago, I wrote a review after completing about 15 classes at btone. At the time,…read moreI said I hated gyms, never stuck with workout programs, and was shocked I even wanted to come back after my first class left me sore for days. Fast forward to today... I just completed my 277th class. What started as "maybe I'll try this for two weeks" has become one of the best things I've done for myself physically and mentally. btone completely changed my relationship with fitness. I'm stronger, more toned, have better balance and endurance, and actually look forward to working out now -- something I never thought I'd say. The instructors continue to be incredible. They challenge you while still making the classes approachable for every fitness level, and the atmosphere is supportive instead of intimidating. Whether you're walking in for your first class or celebrating your 500th, everyone is encouraged and celebrated. One of my favorite things is that no matter how many classes I take, I still feel challenged and continue seeing progress. The workouts never feel stale. For anyone intimidated to start: I was absolutely the person who thought fitness programs "weren't for me." Now I'm the person taking 6am classes multiple times a week and planning my schedule around btone. Safe to say the two-week trial worked. :)

Great teachers! The classes are challenging but can be modified for any level. Highly recommen!!read more

If not for the help from this bike shop, I would have been stranded or at least very uncomfortable. Thankfully, Jimmy quickly found a replacement and repaired my bike all for no charge. Thank you so much for your help!

My brother…read moreand his gf needed helmets (already had bikes) and they asked if it's possible to rent the helmets and he allowed them to just borrow them for free. "I'm not going to charge you for staying safe" is what he told us. THAT alone would have me recommending this place to anyone. The girl behind the counter was also very nice! I'm not sure of her name but she was helpful when I was looking to rent the bike for myself! I rented a bike for the half day time, and the package included the bike, a helmet, a lock, a basket (my bike had a basket), and a couple different maps of the area. All for $20!! You can not beat that price! Also the bike that was given to me to use was purple which was a random little awesome thing, as purple is my favorite color!
