I was in the area and was looking for a playground, happened to find this by chance. I was…read moresurprised with how big this place was. Parking was plentiful; a porta potty was spotted. There were a couple of town buildings (senior center and community room), a swimming pool, basketball court, sand volleyball court, tennis courts, a small field, and a playground. There were picnic tables throughout and a very small pavilion. The playgorund was on mulch and in good shape; there were two swings and two baby swings. This park is on 33-acres and has woods in the back; I saw quite people walking into it. It is open from dusk to dawn all year. The pool was packed since it's a hot June day. The daily fee for the pool is $7 for residents and $10 for non-resident. Overall, a fun spot to hangout!

(You can't roughhouse, do flips, splash, give "piggy back rides" ", partake in any game the involves breath work, etc.). Many people were told by the lifeguards where were rules on what was acceptable in the pool, which has yet to be found on the website. There are bathrooms, changing areas, showers, and a free splash pad outside the pool area. There is a designated food and eating area, but l've notice people "claim" the tables, even when not eating at them. Very inconsiderate for others who want to sit in the shade or eat. ****And note to patrons; PLEASE STOP SPRAYING YOUR SUN BLOCK NEAR THE FOOD TABLES. Sprayed food doesn't taste good

As a Middletown resident, I'm always looking for fun, family-friendly activities to enjoy with my…read morechildren. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this pool to families with kids. The splash pad is great, and the pool itself is beautiful, but the environment doesn't feel welcoming to children. There are so many restrictions--no running, no splashing, no touching, no diving, no jumping--that it feels like kids aren't allowed to simply enjoy being in the water. Expecting children not to splash while swimming is unrealistic and takes away from the experience. What made our visit even more disappointing was the attitude of some of the staff. The female lifeguards were unpleasant and came across as rude throughout our visit, while the male lifeguards were polite and respectful. My 14-year-old daughter even felt uncomfortable because one of the female lifeguards repeatedly gave her dirty looks, despite her not causing any problems. Families should be able to enjoy a public pool without feeling like they're constantly being watched or made uncomfortable. I hope management takes these concerns seriously and works on creating a more welcoming atmosphere for children and families.

Before entering the pool area, a fee must be paid. There are options to purchase a pool membership or pay a daily drop in fee; drop in fee is $5 for residents and $7 for non residents. You can bring your own chair/blanket to setup on the grassy area. There are drinks and snacks at the concession stand for a fee. They also offer swim lessons. The splash pad is small and simple, coming from Florida we had so many large and elaborate splash pads that were free. I know that this is New England and splash pads aren't a year-round thing so it doesn't have to be free or elaborate but since I was spoiled, I had to deduct a star for that reason. The pools were large and clean and there were plenty of amenities in the park. There is a free playground, skatepark, tennis courts, ball field, basketball courts, and picnic pavilions. Parking is ample.

"The falling leaves drift by the window The autumn leaves of…read morered and gold I miss you most of all my darling When autumn leaves start to fall" (Nat "King" Cole) I found that trail that Kim V. found at the back end of a parking lot. Didn't see any markers or entrance signs there, besides one sign that was vandalized by spray paint, making whatever information was on it, illegible. The path was enveloped by falling and fallen leaves, so there was a blanket of yellows, golds, and browns everywhere. And it's a very low impact path- pretty much flat with a very small number of rocks and tree limbs to trip you up. On the path we saw a very cool site where it skirts a farm property -two small baling tractors tidying up the overgrown hayfield and making neat cylindrical bales of hay. Eventually, the path takes you to the Farmington River and if you follow the path and keep the river to your right you'll be rewarded with some very pretty scenery. Stay on the path and get to the very impressive Farmington High School Boathouse and boat launch. Toss in a few wood bridges, skeletal remains of old buildings, and a concrete staircase to nowhere, and you'll enjoy your visit as much as we did. Our walk to the boathouse and back ran around 6,000 steps.
