Good place to…read morebring kids to explore but watch out for dog poop here and there, and turtles, snakes and ticks. There are tons of paths to explore through the woods. The beach is filled with sharp shells and rocks -- dogs might hurt their paws. Cool views of Narragansett Bay and the Jamestown Bridge. We typically see a lot of birdwatchers and families. Walk from the parking lot down the large path until you see water. Then at the beach, take a right and climb over some big rocks and you'll find more beach to walk on as you head towards the Jamestown Bridge. Very easy walk/hike. No bathrooms or trash cans -- so I deducted a star.

This is a great place for beginners, kids, and people who enjoy flat terrain hikes. That's because the park is built on an abandoned dump. Though you'd never know it when you're there. The trail around Bellview Pond is especially scenic. There are three parking areas - Two on Oak Hill Road, one on Lafayette road. The largest parking area is Baseball Fields on Oak Hill Rd. There are about 37 hiking trails and about the same number of biking trails. Some of the hiking trails have well labelled names like CenterCut Deer Run Eastern Edison Forest Moon of Endor Golden Mean Pinewarp Power Loop East Power Loop Middle Power Loop West Pumper Which vary from just a few hundred feet long to several miles. A nice green space in North Kingstown.

Everything is in great condition and extremely well maintained and the facilities are well used in the warm weather. Nice areas to have a picnic, walk a dog or take a stroll by the water. The boat launch tends to get crowded int he summer but there is a separate little areas just for canoes and kayaks so they don't have to wait for the larger craft. A very thoughtful touch indeed. A great park for just about anything you can think of. Whether you want to kick, swing, bounce, peddle, cast or paddle you will find this park to just about the perfect place.

My SO has been doing a great job finding new places for us to adventure outside lately and this is…read moreone of the spots that is new to us. All these years and this place is so close by; no idea how we missed it. We got in a good hike along a variety of trails that zig zag and intersect. Took a side trail to an old mill ruins that was fun. It's smaller than some other trails, with a nice variety of terrain. You need good walking shoes for parts of the trail, and some of the 'dead end' paths (like the one to the mill ruins) are a bit over grown, so wear solid shoes and long pants. There is a large pond at the beginning of the trail and plenty of parking and a small stream that feeds off the pond. It's really lovely here. If you haven't stopped by yet, prepare for some time in the woods and stop by for a hike under the trees.

Will have to update once the weather warms up a bit, but this was a lovely little surprise find in…read morethe EG area. Immediately greeted by a small pond, which is always a nice feature for a walk through the woods. There are stairs down, and a decent amount to be prepared for that both starting and finishing your trip. There are also some "bridges" over waterfalls with visible openings. Certainly safe, but just a heads up. I took a short stroll around the pond and then up to the left, walking behind the water. There are trail markers which is helpful. A nice quiet spot to enjoy a little time out in nature if you happen to be in the area; oh and parking on site which is always a plus. Can't wait to come back and explore more in the Spring.

This park is a vast well maintained full service state park in the smallest state in the union, Rhode Island! For a small fee, we rented a gorgeous little private shaded spot with two picnic benched and real bathroom facilities. We brought out food and a small grill to cookout. They did come check our permit, which you need to reserve to grill. Dell's lemonade truck is often present, so we treated ourselves to the famous Dell's frozen lemonade-yay! We were there a good 5 or 6 hours and it was a perfectly lovely and enjoyable day for our family to relax and enjoy our rare time to reconnect in person. What an invaluable experience. I can't stress enough having uninterrupted time with those you love. Cell service is non existent, so take this time to disconnect off the grid and just live and love. This place is a true simple gift-a Beautiful way to reconnect and just feed the soul. Take my advice, do it now, while you can. Make a happy plan before life makes other plans! Thanks for following me, Happy summer 2026! ~Tami from Miami

A…read morewonderful place to take dogs, lots of benches to take rests, and an ample parking lot whose potholes were recently fixed, yay! Sometimes it's hard to find out what part of the park you're meant to meet someone in since there are so many sections. You can walk along the long beach or try a woodsy hiking trail. The trails on the right of the beach have either steps or a gradual slope to get up to the top of them, and you can look down over a small cliff to see the water below. The trails on the left of the gazebo are beautiful and give you many options, but people ride horses here, so be mindful of the droppings! This park has fantastic sunsets and multiple picnic areas, plus multi Porta potties that are usually in decent condition to use if needed. The bridge is great to look at, but can get crowded with families doing holiday photo shoots in the fall, so I've become wary of coming here since being stuck on one side of the bridge while a family made us wait to cross until they were done with pictures (ugh). I've come here for walks/hikes and even to wade at multiple times of year and always enjoy a beautiful day and peaceful experience here.

I suspect not many people just happen by the park, it's well hidden and is actually quite a bit larger than it first looks. The park is the home to two nice baseball fields that obviously get a lot of use. The baseball diamonds dominate the park so much that it's easy to miss what's lurking in the other, less used parts. If you go up the hill from the baseball area you will find a basketball court and a cool area that kids have turned into a mini skate park. Just some old steps from some long forgotten something, creative young minds turned it into a great place to test the laws of physics.. The park isn't really large enough for any hiking but a stroll along the perimeter of the park makes for a pleasant walk, especially in the snowy or stormy weather. A hill provides a nice spot that allows some entertaining sledding without being steep enough to kill off the younger generation. One of the small parks that has a lot more than is visible at first glance. I was so busy checking out the baseball fields that I almost walked right by the incredible chuck of quartz that guards the entrance. Like most people I tend to walk fast and want to get to the next place. But as Suetonius said in Divus Augustus, sometimes it is much better to "festina lente". (Hurry slowly).

A good amount of parking is available near the tennis courts. You can also walk in from the Coventry Greenway bike path. There are two newer playground areas, one larger than the other and a couple a picnic tables are on the property as well.

The Jamestown community has really put together an amazing space for children. No dogs are allowed in the park so plan accordingly.

Monkey bars. Zip line. And much more! The kids had a ball. Bonus points, an ice cream shop is across the street. Two thumbs up.

I'd say the main downside is that they don't have bathrooms and instead just have port-a-potty's. You can probably go into the library if the library is open, but when we were there the library was closed. The park has a great setup for younger kids on side and older kids on the other. I also love that there is a little bakery/cafe across the street that you can grab an iced coffee at and a snack before or after the kids play. Street parking was tight, but we were able to park at the library. Overall a lovely gem of a playground.
