Great place to walk, beautiful harbor/river views and paths are all paved and basically flat, great place for people recovering or disabled. I use it after rain when more challenging trails might be muddy and slippery.

People dont clean up after their dogs. Walking paths were littered with dog feces. Difficult walking or jogging.

Nice park with a walking loop and lots of exercise/playing equipment around it. Looks like a park you would see Rocky working out at in a movie. Views of the marina, also has tennis courts, basketball, and the best playgrounds in Branford. Great in all seasons, better in the warmer months.

Nice clean park with tennis courts and baseball fields and kids playground. I went to do yoga and the teacher cancelled because it was buggy. I was disappointed because there were not ANY bugs.

Theres a park for the kids, a couple places to play tennis, a field, a place to play volleyball, and even a few spots where you can just sit in the shade or sun and just relax. There is so much to do there, and it is very well kept too.

Nice place. Just wish the KIDDIE PARK & BIG KID PARK were closer together. My grandkids are 8 & 3. Either way , one of them is upset. Also wish the KIDDIE PARK had more stuff for the little ones. Its a nice park though. If you arent a Branford resident you cant park in the main parking lot. Theres also a baseball , & basketball area. Theres public restrooms too

Great park with many playgrounds and different areas for play and various sports. Slides, swings, climbing, and so much more! A lot of areas are perfect for imaginative childs play. There is also volley ball net, soccer fields, baseball fields, basketball courts and many beautiful spots to have picnics. Beautiful lush green grass to sit on, or run around. Also many benches and picnic tables as well. Great spot for all ages to enjoy. Very big park. Plenty of free parking. Also bathrooms and attendants on park property that are very helpful. Highly recomend

This has to be one of the greatest public parks in the area. There is plenty of space to accommodate lots of people and there is something for everyone here. There are green clay tennis courts, hard court tennis courts, baseball fields, a jogging path, play structures for kids and more. The park is kept in great condition and its easy to find.

Great Quality Park to Bring Your Children too!!! Children of all ages can partake in the amenities!Starting at the age of 6-9 Months (Infant) Walking Paths around the entire property and theyre paved, perfect for power walking with your stroller! Once you have your first taste of the greatness that is this Park, youll never want to walk away from it. The Best Part is the Design & Layout; I say this because, from the Swing Set to the Tennis Courts to the Baseball Fields and the Softball Fields to the Jungle Gym and Everything in between as you grow the park holds the perfect size and shape for your age group.
