    Cool little structure to check out if you find yourself in Groton. Easy hike from main road- May even see skins wild turkeys and cows

    Groton is a quaint little town situated in the North-northeast section of Massachusetts. The…read moreAmerican Indians who lived here thousands of years ago called this area "Petapawag" meaning "swampy land" - and you'll notice when driving through that there are a lot of wetlands in the area. The town itself doesn't have much going on. You won't find any malls or movie theaters or McDonalds or a Stop & Shop. Storefronts are zoned to look old-timey. You'd never know the Citizens or Bank of America located downtown were banks, except for the small signs out front. The town hall is gorgeous. Looks small from the outside, but inside every department is clearly marked and everyone inside is very polite and helpful. Groton is a rich town - and their taxes certainly reflect this! Homes, even two-family homes, are zoned to look like one-family dwellings from the outside. This keeps the quaint nature of the town intact. When you mention Groton to people, they generally know if from one of two things: The Lawrence Acadamy, which is the most expensive private high school in America, or Gibbet Hill, which is known as an excellent restaurant in town. If you like nature, Groton is your place - there's a huge bike path through town (part of the old Boston & Maine railway) as well as many lakes and ponds and forest to explore. Groton has grown over the years, but knows to keep itself looking as it should instead of bursting at the seams with modern stores, etc.

    I can't believe no one has reviewed this glorious establishment yet! Only kidding, I totally can…read more I have lived in Pepperell, Massachusetts my entire life, and I have to say its capacity for upward social mobility has really gained some traction over the past twenty-two years. For example, we used to have two thriving elementary schools and now we find we can function just as well using only one! Ah, budget cuts you ol' hoot! We've even had approximately four different Italian restaurants existing within the same plot over the past eight years. You say job security? I say shmob schmeshmurity--who needs it anyway? We used to not have a Subway franchise, and now we do! Check and mate. "The Depot" pizza establishment has moved around a plethora of times throughout the past decade, but what better way to keep the townsfolk on their toes? We still have a whole lot of nail salons, as always; Pepperell citizens have ranked number three in the "Best Looking Hands" category by the Princeton Review. (Just kidding. I just made that up. Please don't quote me on that.) But in all seriousness, every Independence Day we put on one HECK (pardon my strong language) of a fireworks display, and our historic covered bridge has been beautifully renovated over the past decade. We also now have a craft beer establishment, Pepperell Beverage, which has phenomenal selection and customer service. The schoolchildren really seem to enjoy the new skatepark. C&S still sells a hearty grinder. Park Street is lit. The farmer's market scene has really been growing and we have a Dunkin Donuts! I do, however, wonder but just one thing: whatever happened to that house on Prescott street by the Nissitissit River that literally just disappeared one day? You know, the one by the old schoolhouse? C'mon, I can't be the only one wondering about that. There's just a plot of empty land now. There's gotta be a conspiracy there. Anyway, for all you "Parks and Recreation" fans out there, Pepperell is literally Pawnee and Groton is literally Eagleton so therefore what we may lack in superiority we make up for in pride. We rule! Tell all your young and/or pregnant friends to move here so the youth population doesn't continue to decline. Encourage your kids to enroll in recreational sports, especially TAP basketball! Once you look past all the chilling Trump for America signs and the fact we definitely may exist atop a haunted Native American burial ground, Pepperell is a nice and welcoming town, located conveniently by tax-free New Hampshire. But seriously, that disappearing house. Where did it go?

I know they don't have much space otherwise but first few holes are built into a hill which is terrible! You hit a good shot and it rolls off the side of a hill and into woods! Kinda a joke but was cheap and last few holes were good! Overall was good time but we were dead after walking up the huge hills

    4 Stars UPDATE:…read moreThis review is of the POOL only. *Staff had misunderstood the pool rules. Kids accompanied by adults have access to the entire pool regardless of swimming ability. This makes things much more fun for all. Looking forward to the next several weeks in the sun! While the staff is kind and helpful the pool swim rules are far too strict for children accompanied by an adult. Children who cannot swim the length of the Olympic sized pool and back without touching the wall or the ground CANNOT leave the baby area to swim even when accompanied by an adult. This is ridiculous. Means adults have to stand and wade in the baby pool in order to play with their children in the water. Parents cannot hold infants in arms in the large section of the pool. Really?! So the baby/toddler area is unsafe and far too crowded on a hot day. If guards aren't confident they can manage the pool, they need a new summer gig. If it's crowded they need to have more staff. Now we know why the price is so low for a summer membership. Most kids can't leave the baby pool. BUYER BEWARE!

And I never leave there without feeling satisfied with my readings. And the very last time I was there, she explained to me that not only was a healer, in a sense I could help other people more. She inspired me. I bought my first two sets of tarot cards. I bought a beautiful Wind-chime that I leave on my deck it hangs over my deck gardens. And I also I'm looking forward to taking some Reiki classes here . I'm sure many other classes I'll be interested into. I've also purchased several different stones that I carry with me in my pocketbook to protect me while I'm driving. I also put stones inside my zipped pillowcase to help me sleep and stay protected from darkness.. My favorite thing are my Sage and my cleansing candles alongside my protection spray that she recommended that smells wonderful and alongside my spirit guides protecting me, I do feel like the spray helps.. Every time I walk into Open Doors , I'm greeted with such welcoming individuals. You feel like you're home. They're right there to share stories or help you find what you need. I'm looking forward to going back whenever I can. Thank you so much Open Doors sincerely, Jenny Folco.
