Nice park to have an evening stroll. There is a small river/ stream of water with lot of ducks so good to pass some time sitting by stream watching ducks play around.In fall, park offers nice hues of trees in yellow and red color..

Beautiful new park right in the heart of downtown Stamford. A great place to walk the dog or by myself. The staff there keeps the grounds maintained beautifully.

Beautiful blend of indigenous nature and curated spaces right in the heart of downtown! My kiddos adore all the climbing rocks and the ability to splash in the river to their hearts content. One of our favorite urban getaways! Im delighted that Stamford created this gorgeous park in the midst of our city

Near downtown Its a big green park on either side of the Mill River. Really nice place to go for a walk or just to relax. I loved listening to the sounds of the river and watching the birds.

Mill River Park org hosts so many events and are truly awesome. They lighted Christmas tree and it was for 1st time this event was hosted. Also this time of year the ice skating ring is opened and today they hosted skating performance. It was delight. Entire park area around the ring is beautifully lighted and decorated. Ice Skating will be open throughout winter. They supply skating shoes on rent. It is not so crowded yet and no waiting. Recommended to try ice skating here.

Little kids would love it, as the park is along the sides of the river and good place to ride their bike/skate.They would also enjoy the carousel ride there.

Wow what a beautiful addition to downtown Stamford! Love the simple but accessible landscape architecture and the flowers!

Lovely native plantings along the river attract interesting wildlife. People around but not too crowded

Mill River Park is a great place to go to for walks or to just sit around the pretty plants or by the river. There are free fitness classes and there is a water fountain there in the summer. Recommend attending the free fitness courses offered in the summer. The flowers are so pretty there. During the winter the water fountain turns into a cute skating rink. Check out the calendar on the mill river website for events and classes that they offer.

Really nice place to go for a walk or just to relax

Small with a lack of a longer running path. A great place to bring a coffee, have a chat with a friend and listen to the sounds of the river. The overall utility of the park is limited due to its size and layout. As the park extends further east it becomes less manicured.

The police should have a better presence in the park. Too many teens smoking dope.

Great park great atmosphere it’s always maintained , They should post more signs of no skate boards allowed anyone with skate boards should get a fine

Love this park they have Zumba on Thursdays I think yoga on Tuesdays and some other exercise class on Wednesdays its just a nice chill clean relax Park

Nice park in the heart of the city near downtown. Its huge green park on either side of the Mill River. It got carousel ,water fountain. Go-to place for number of events happening through out the year like skating rink, bubble festival ,movie festival and lots more.

Most popular place to go walk, different activities every afternoon, biggest zumba dance in the city on thursdays.

Beautiful area. The peaceful for of the river is the best option to relax and keep in touch with nature. 10.05.18

Cool place to hangout with friends and walking time

Park is very nice and clean. Good place to go and relax.

Love the park. Nice peaceful stroll

A really great place for the entire family to go and enjoy the outdoors. Walk by the river, grab some ice cream, ride the carousel (rain or shine!) and lots of outdoor kid toys and lawn to spread out on.

I am one big fan for this place...Fun in the winter..Stamford needed it.

Good place to take walks/runs, hang out with friends and have a good time, alone or with others!

On a day of epic hot weather, we had been sitting in stop and go traffic on our way deeper into CT for longer than the entire trip normally takes, when we got off of 95N to try and find a bite to eat. I glanced out the window when passing near the campus of UConn Stamford, and saw park space. As we passed closer nearby, I spied an oasis in the distance - an arc of water reaching high into the sky, and tiny people running in between the towering jets! We had our 5yr olds swim suit and plenty of towels in the car, so we pulled over and found street parking. We live in NYC and are huge fans of splash pads: park and playground spaces where the city has installed water features of various kinds to keep cool in the summer heat. Excited to find more of them outside the NYC as well!Once out of the car she instantly needed a bathroom, and low and behold, adjacent to the simply giant splash pad were bathrooms: men, women, and one family. The bathroom was hot and stale enough inside to toast bread, but it was reasonably clean for a park bathroom and everything was there: hand soap, toilet paper, flushing worked, running water, clean enough floor to sit a waterproof bag of swimsuits and towels.After the potty and outfit change, our 5yr old charged out into the towering jets of water and had a ridiculous amount of fun!! A wonderful mix of ethnicities and ages of kids and happy people greeted us. There were stone and wood benches along one side to sit, and Adirondack chairs also sprinkled around as well nearby grassy fields where one might picnic. The middle of the splash pad accommodated a number of parents like us who wanted to cool off without absolutely getting soaked. And the water there was about 4inches deep to cool off tired feet and exhausted kids who occasionally knelt, sat, or laid down in that middle section. I managed to get splashed just enough to feel cooled down. And we were so happy that, although the sun was beginning to slip low, we could still stay and let our daughter play more even though it was 7pm.Overall we are so pleased with our discovery and will make use of this as a stop on our way East during the summer days when somehow we are an hour from home and still an hour to our destination during a trip that should only take a little over an hour total! My husband mentioned that the only thing missing were food trucks and ice cream to make the place perfect and maybe those are things that come later in July? We were there June 28th I think. Bring towels and snacks and leave happy with exhausted kids!

You can find and buy anything in this shopping mall. Parking is another thing.

Nice green space to spend time with your little ones.

Decent place to spend a quick break. There is a small creek, an unoriginal fountain, picnic tables, ping pong tables without paddles or balls so that’s a bit useless, a dog obstacle area (or maybe that’s for kids, I don’t know). Trees, birds, flowers, grass area to toss a frisbee or what have you. Not much here to spend an extended amount of time, but nice to sit for a few minutes or walk through. Unfortunately, it’s the only thing resembling a park downtown.

I didnt expect the part to be this small. However it is a very nice park. The water flow is beautiful.

So beautiful!

What a pleasant and relaxing spot right in downtown Stamford.

Social distance and chill @ Mill River! Nothing like a pleasant evening with friends in the park, from six feet of course.

Very relaxing and family oriented park area.

I moved to Georgia but the park is the only reason I miss Connecticut. Can’t wait to see it again

Beautiful design with beautiful gardens and a walk through meadow.

Love the park nice river

Great park with winter ice skating, beer garden, walking paths around the Still River estuary, a snack bar and a carousel. There is also miniature golf in summer time (bring your own putter)....

Loved the park

Great place for kids and adults both

Its a paradise, I love that place

Love this park and its events.

Beautiful place to make get together.

Beautiful park with an ice skating rink in the winter and lots of exercise activities in the summer. One of the nicest parks around. Well with a visit

They have done such a great job a rebuilding the park. And the carousel is beautiful!

This is a great place for walking or even spending the whole day. Really a great park. The big problem is that there is no public restroom. The only restroom is at the carroussel which has limited hours. So if you get there early morning or want to stay late at the day you better have no need to go to the bathroom. There is none on those times of the day.

Beautiful place, very clean

Fun place and amazing drinks. Friendly staff. BUT you better watch out for your stuff!!! My umbrella got stolen there last night!!!!

Ice skating and beer garden in the winter, baby bunnies in nature in the spring, movies in the summer.... carousel all year round and so much more!

Great space for running or walking

Beautiful place! Today there was a Halloween event. My son had tons of fun!

Quiet in the middle of hustle and bustle downtown Stamford. Close to attractions, hosts attractions but needs more of a social presence, or physical board for notices to inform when they have a concert or festival. Great times.

Such a beautiful and peaceful park to hang out.

A small park that has a fountain as the prime attraction. In the winter time it is converted into an ice skating rink for events which are open to the public at a fee.

Great place to come with the kids, alone or a date! There is a river, a playground all the way at the end for the kids, a carousel at the opposite end but you have to check their hours bc they arent always open, grass to have a picnic. I take my little one here once a week! It is not well taken care of. T

Attended a food festival here and was surprised by all of the amenities the park had to offer. From games outside to plenty of grass space. This park is the center of it all.

Good one and near to downtown

What it is now is beautiful, compared to before not so great, except for the cherry blossom trees that used be there. I loved those beautiful pink trees.

Beautifully restored, a really nice walk where you always come across some sort of wildlife. Its Stamfords mini version of Central Park for NYC an oasis of green amid all the buildings. Right now the Cherry trees are blooming and the walk is littered with pink petals. The stream cutting through the park carries ducks and geese most of the year. Last fall they completed the fountain which doubles as a skating rink in the winter months, and there is a small fenced in dog run that is populated by local residents who actually watch their dogs and not their phones :D All in all its a short walk, but a pleasant breath of fresh air!

Amazing plase for casual daytime and evening strolls.

Its a beautiful place to visit landscape is awesome i really love it

What a nice job Mill River has done to clean up the park and surrounding area. Clean and very well maintained and very peaceful in a busy busy area of Stamford.

Very bad communication to the Stamford community. Why is there firewood available and you cant use the fire pits? Why is there a splash zone and people are being kicked out because its a fountain? The collaborative should re-do their PR plan so that it reflects the amenities the park actually has.

Amazing place and very beautiful

I came here for the food truck festival and it was amazing. Loved all the vendors, the beers were really good, they had complimentary drinks, a live band and like 15 food trucks.

Nice place to unwind

Many years ago this park was, for lack of better words, a dump. No one wanted to go here, but after the renovation it is such a gem. This park is trying to bring people back and is succeeding. They have an ice skating rink in the winter, a carousel for kids to ride ($2 last I check), a dog park, events happening daily, free excersise events in the summer and movies as well. This place is no longer just any old park, but a place where people go to make memories.

Good park. Hiking trails. Splash pad for kids to play. Dont really want to hang around after dark, but even then the park is decently well lit.

I love this park to take a nice walk in they have a like a water fountain for the kids to play in. Im just a little confused as to why I saw a dear in this park. Idk but the people are making it a little too bushy. I know the dear was brought over there. Just dont bring any other animals!!

Today was my 1st time at yoga in the park. What a beautiful setting to practice yoga. Amie was terrific. Will be going again next Sunday.

Its a quiet place to go for a nice walk along the River

Its the second time Ive been here for an event. Its A beautiful venue. The carousel was working the 2nd event and my kids loved it. The view right on the grass is beautiful. If I lived in the city this would definitely be one of my favorite venues to host events.

Good place to hang out with kids

Great park in the middle of Stamford and good for running or just walking around. It even has a tiny river which makes it even more exciting. There are benches all across the park where one can sit and enjoy the view.

Beautiful park. I was there for the Spartan Race, but the park, the stream, and the scenery was very nice

Nice place to visit with friends

Beautiful park in Stamford. I love taking a walk there. The river and the trees are a treat. And there are seats to just sit and enjoy.

This is open space for parties. There is lot of space to go round. Place can be utilized for hosting some outdoor activities and parties.

Great place for an afternoon strollnwith the children at the park and make your way through following the river to the carousel

Beautiful place in the middle of the city

A small but well-maintained park, however some of the events held here cause really bad noise pollution. The free film screenings on Friday nights are a great idea, but I seriously don’t think the people sitting right in front of the screen need the volume booming throughout the neighbourhood. Right now there’s some kind of stage and Latin event happening with the same issue.... there doesn’t seem to be any regard for local residents being disturbed. Surely this is a simple thing to address with noise limits?

Last night my friends and I prepared a BBQ on one of the grills by the dog park, only to have someone come over and tell us we had to put the fire out. The grills are advertised on their website, theres fire wood openly available, but apparently youre not allowed to grill there?? I am very confused and disappointed. At the moment she told us to stop, the fire was finally ready to use so I asked if we could just grill our food (cause I was hungry!!) and be on our way and she said no. We had grilled out here before so Im not sure what the problem was. Very upsetting. There should definitely be signs put up about this and you might want to hide the fire wood so you dont keep giving people ideas.

Wow what a beautiful addition to downtown Stamford! Love the simple but accessible landscape architecture and the flowers!

Beautiful place for all the family.

I am still confused about the beer garden and holiday market that was advertised to be here. Yes, Half Full brewing did have a beer garden on site but there was 1 vendor in their tent and 1 vendor in the other tent? We drove down looking for a holiday market and instead found 1 person selling socks. The only good thing about the event was the vendor called The Two Oh Three. They had some great quality stuff. You cant call yourself a holiday market with only 2 vendors.

Has been restored and looks gorgeous! All sorts of events are hosted there during the Summer. Park also has a dog park and ice rink.

I just basically walk through n was surprised to c all the activities for women n children, people walking their, pets n families n everyone seems so polite n courteous it was heart warming I loved the atmosphere

Beautiful park in the middle of downtown Stamford !!! Smells of weed in the late evenings though ...

First time in park. Its nice. Even a doggy park. Thats cool.

Theyve added a bunch of new stuff. Nice relaxing space. Checkout their website for weekly activities.

Lovely park that provides some sorely-needed, nicely maintained open space in downtown Stamford. Id feel more comfortable if the park was regularly patrolled by a cop or Stamford Ambassador.

This whole part of town has gone through a dramatic transformation over the years. This park is now the centerpiece of this urban transition. Great for families, with a beautiful new carousel, lots of grass to frolic and picnic on, great pathways for kid cycling or skating and an adjacent playground area a stones throw from the main hub of the park. Well conceived place of respite in the heart of Stamford downtown.

While it has taken a very long time to complete (and don’t think it’s fully done yet), one can see the benefits of having an urban and vibrant park in the middle of downtown bringing activities, family fun and greenery to an otherwise underutilized area. Great job so far.

Wonderful clean park with lots of events. I wish they had a bridge in the middle so we don’t have to go to either corners to get on the other side of the park!

Took our dog here. Beautiful little park

Fun outing for my family. Had a great time!

Great park, lots of fun in summer yoga movies and all.

Love it here.. Great place to relax, they have a big water fountain that the kids can play in and get cooled off

Nice place to bring the kids. Parking is very difficult to find unless you come early in the morning. Light sprinklers for the kids.

Love this park, lots of things to do and expanding. Excellent for children that live nature.

Music and food truck fest today was excelent, maosbao= great buns!, Cousins=amazing lobster tacos!!
