Great park which we initially discovered as a sledding spot but it quickly became an all-around staple with variety of athletic spaces and a few playgrounds at different corners of the park. And yes, it is absolutely perfect for sledding: slopes of varying length and steepness, and crowds of people having fun on a snowy day.

Huge park with several fields and children play area. I go here for my toddler’s soccer class in the softball fields. I usually park in the parking lot on Sherman but there are multiple parking lots depending on where you enter from. Lots of people run or go for a walk. Has nice benches to sit. Yet to explore the park fully.

This park is massive! The parking was quite full, and I thought maybe there was an event and that was why. It was Cambridge Jazz Festival! How fun!!! There were teams playing soccer and people walking a track and kids playing. There’s also two enclosed dog parks for dogs to safely be off leash! Seems like a really chill place!

Hills and hills filled with playgrounds, sunny athletic fields for all kinds of sports activities and various areas perfect for outings on a beautiful day. No shortage of picnic benches here! Also spacious enough to feel peaceful even with a lot of people there.
