Lovely and well maintained park…read more Lots of parking available surrounding the ponds along the park paths. Lots of walking/running paths throughout the park. A few benches around the park. The large sundial sculpture is an interesting attraction. There is a little diagram nearby explaining how the sundial works. There are also a few sculptures there as well. Very safe with lots of friendly park-goers. Public welcome...no town/county/state restrictions to my knowledge.

I never knew a Park could be simple, yet beautiful…read more Having selected this Park on a whim, I wasn't sure what I was going to expect but I was pleasantly surprised to see ample parking spaces, walking paths, and a manicured area. On one summer day, my boyfriend and I began exploring by walking on stone paths atop a hill here we eventually came upon a Gazebo. There was an air of romanticism as the names of couples were carved in its structure and the sparrows sang an unusual melody in quiet of the dewy morning. After crossing the bridge characteristic of this park, we sat on a bench by the large pond in which the swans and ducks call home. The reflection of the trees in the water along with their slight rustling by the wind gave us such peace. Bruce Park definitely made my trip to Greenwich even more special! :)

Why three stars ? I've been to many beaches and this one is just average. Compared to places like Fire Island & Robert Moses State Park there's no competition. Beautiful big rolling waves, infinite views, the wildlife, flowers and clean ocean breeze off the Atlantic Ocean versus the rocky rough sand and wimpy wavelets of the Long Island Sound.

Great visit to the Gardens…read more Known of them for a while now but finally made the 25-minute journey on a late Sunday morning. The free gardens are open to the public on the weekends, from 10am - 4pm during the mid-spring through early-fall months. (April - November) I followed the general directions to the front gate where I was greeted by a staff member who took my name, phone number and directed me to the visitor's parking lot. Once parked in the designated visitor's lot, there is a visitor's information window as well as bathrooms there. From there, you can start your walk throughout the gardens at your own pace. There are lots of sculptures and scenic paths to explore. Particularly lovely during the fall months. I took about 1.5 hours to cover the entire gardens. All staff I encountered were friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.

The Mianus River Park Connecticut is something of a surprise for newcomers, a beautiful hidden gem…read moreof woodland and a beautiful small river just 22 miles long flowing though woodlands on the border of Greenwich and Stamford. It rises at Bedford, NY in Westchester, NY. Altogether, the park in both is a bit more than 220 acres total The trail is accessible from parking lots in Greenwich and Stamford that allow access to the park, but check to see if PARKING PERMITS ARE REQUIRED. Dogs should be kept on lead and under control, not just because it's the right thing, but also because there is wildlife in the park, Eagles nest in the areas and Black Bears are known to nest there. There is a Mianus Web site as also from Stamford and Greenwich. IN the 90s, a fishway was built to allow migratory fish to enter the river as they had previously. It's just a beautiful place that I once shared with a neighbor occasionally as we walked our dogs in the park, a rare time witha great person in early sages of cancer until she had to give it up.

Quiet and peaceful. The parking lot (free parking!) is a potholed mess. But the 3/4 mile gravel walking path is in good shape. Lots of geese pooping all over the grass. Stay on the walking path. If you attempt to venture down to waters edge you will encounter empty beer cans, tons of broken glass and condom wrappers. (Why is Stamford such a pit?)

Looking at Kosciuszko Park, I saw that there was no fee, only fees for using the common area/Gazebo. We got there at about 5PM on a Friday afternoon. As noted on the website, there is no fee to enter the park. There is a large parking lot there and the only people that were in the park were a few runners and a few local older groups who seem to be regulars. The walking trails are gravel and dirt with lots of goose poop in the grass, so you can kiss those fresh all white sneakers goodbye if you are not careful. The park is a nice free option to get some good views while taking a walk. I do plan on returning on the nicer days to the visit the other fee-based parks, including Cove Island Park, as they seem to be a lot bigger and offer more to do.

Though you need resident parking during swim season, it's a great winter escape for all between Labor Day and Memorial Day. People decorate memorial benches for the winter holidays, and jingle bell horse rides go on during the December holiday season. It's a park near and dear. At some point we'll make it to the museum, but the historic interpretative signs helped us make do. Kids can sled the hills by the entrance, and everyone can find beach glass along the cove itself. Whether you're looking for nature or exercise, this is a great local escape.
