Fantastic place for a mostly level hike in the woods. Very nice welcome center with clean bathrooms temporarily closed for Covid. So many Audobon locations to visit with one affordable family membership. Check out their website for details.

An amazing little nature preservation cared for by the Massachusetts Audubon Society. The trails are well maintained and if you follow the blue trail markers for about 5 minutes youll come to a spot set up for kids to play and explore. Enjoy!

Great spot for young kids. They have a great natural play area with a small cabin and snake sculpture.

My wife and I took the Backyard Birds tour today with Chris. We were lucky to be guided by him. His personable enthusiasm and vast knowledge made this such a wonderful experience. We learned so much about Oak Knoll in particular and forests, plants, and animals. What a fabulous way to explore and learn.

Great open path with wood chips. Take a walk out to the pond, its a mile one way, but worth the walk. Well cared for and pretty.

This place is amazing! Wonderfully maintained trails and a great facility with animals. Such a great place for the whole family. There is an outdoor play space with a mud kitchen complete with pots and pans! The staff is warm and friendly. Last time I met a very knowledgeable gentleman who was wonderful with my children and me!

Visited Audubon Oak Knoll for a birthday party and our kids had a wonderful time. The staff was very friendly and planned a fun yet educational activity. There was plenty of free parking, the facility was nice and it was easy to find. We have driven past this place hundreds of times, never giving it much credence, but after this, we will definitely be back, next time likely for a walk through the nature trail...

I had no idea this place was there. Took the kids for a class and they loved it. Walking trails and a small play area just inside a wooded area. If you have a chance check this place out

I enjoy this path a lot. Ive been here several times with my small children who also enjoy it. Theres a sort of observation platform on the pond and the kids like to sit on it and watch the fish. Theres also a big rock and some wooden benches they like to play on. Very short walking path though. Good for kids.

Relatively small for Audobon. Pleasant trails. Some birds but a little early for warblers. I saw a beautiful towhee. Terrain is damp and marshy but it is minimally disturbed as a preserve would be. Fun walk around the pond. I didnt visit the visitor center.

Review №24

Loved this place! There are signs and charts showing the local wildlife. A very calm and peaceful nature walk! However, the paths need to be more clearly marked and there was lost of dead fallen trees on and near the trail that were unsightly and needed to be cleared.

Mr. Chris was great with the kuds. I have never seen kids that were so excited to show someone a bug. He really knos his stuff. I do suggest bug spray since there is a pond back in the trails. If you remember ask a staff member about the history of the pound... It is really interesting.
