LOVE this park. such a beautiful wide open space on a bit hill. they have PICNIC tables. there’s a walking path all the way around the park, probably takes 20 minutes to do an entire lap. there’s a nice playground too and a bunch of baseball fields, and a track.

I was there Opening Day for Danehy Park & it’s been a Green Oasis in the middle of a city. Multiple soccer, softball, baseball, football & even a turf football field at the top of the park. Playground (with small water park in the summer), dog park, walking/jogging paths, work out station & plenty of benches to watch the variety of games and/or people watch! Well maintained.

Great place for kids sporting events or just a nice walk. Danehy park is my favorite part in Cambridge to be honest! Also, the guys who work there are so kind, helpful and always hardworking!

Multiple tracks and fields with different set ups, baseball and soccer mainly. Great walking paths throughout the park that overlook some willow trees a few areas with built in seating, plenty of space for a beautiful picnic. Awesome dog park with separate smaller dog areas as well. Could really use a bathroom or a port-a-potty at the very least. Ample amount of public parking!

The park is filled with multiple grounds set for different games and occasions. It has a decent size parking lot, a running track, Soccer field and a park for kids. This place really lights up in summer with lots of people and fun activities. It would really recommend it to family who want to spend some time and enjoy some outdoor games

Danehy Park gives you the space and tranquility in your neighborhood. Also, it is good place for running and jogging especially if it rainy as you can run around the paved soccer field. Many sports events organized in the multiple fields in the park. The circle is about 2.5 miles. In the fall, Danehy Park turn to colorfull portrait. Also, Danehy provides grills and benches for picnic.

# these pics belong to the Danehy Park festival:i cannot believe everything was free. This was top of the line Carnival / Festival / Fair even in regards to if you had to pay. The feelings you got when you walk through and so the Patriotic fireman engines and with the crane with the American flag just made you feel so proud to be part of America but Cambridge. They had so many rides,face painting, huge kite flying area ,amazing and friendly Mexican singers. Way too much to mention and that I didnt get there earlier and I didnt know about this previous years. Thank you so much for those responsible for making this happen for us to enjoy connecting and enjoying such an amazing experience without profiting. Its amazing to me and Im very grateful to be born and raised in North Cambridge

I love playing soccer here, beautiful fields. It has a dog park. There could be more parking, that is why I rate it 4 out of 5. Also the parking lot was very dirty when I was there last week. I wish there was more signage showing field numbers.

Danehy is a great place for a walk, exercise, sports, etc. Public events happen their every once in a while also, so its fun to stop by at those. The fields are well maintained, and the bathrooms are too last time I was there. Its also huge, so if you want to go to the park, this is the one.

Beautiful massive park with play structures, sprinklers (usually between June and Labor Day), doggie park and soccer fields. Great for sledding, as theres a hill that leads into marshy grasses at the end instead of a street or something. Check out the annual Danehy Family Fun Day held every September- free entertainment for kids with music, bouncy houses, carnival rides, free kites and lots more!

We are so lucky to have such a huge, well kept, multipurpose park in the middle of our neighborhoods. So many beautiful soccer and baseball fields, a track, a large dog run and lots of picnic spots. And sledding in the winter! (But watch out for the marsh!) Its always lively but rarely over crowded, and the community makes the best of it with many events.
