This local and moderately hidden park/field is really nice. It's quiet and most tourists would…read morenever think about stopping here (or ever know it exists!). There are basketball courts, a baseball field, 2 tennis courts and a pretty nice playground overlooking the beach and ocean. It's a fantastic place to take a kayak out or do some fishing. There a slightly rocky beach that gradually goes into the ocean. This is clearly a local spot and even though it is less than 5 minutes from Plymouth Rock it was nearly empty on a Sunday afternoon. It's pet friendly and there were multiple dogs jumping in the ocean and running around. There are also some restrooms if needed. There was no parking fee either.

This is probably my favorite paved track to walk in Weymouth! It's so well kept, with beautifully…read moregroomed landscaping, plenty of trash barrels, a big parking lot plus some street parking. There's room for hard-core walkers, runners, casual strollers, it accommodates everyone's pace. And that's just the outside walking path that circles the center field! It's surrounded on one side by suburban neighborhood woods and fescue- just beautiful! Watch out for the bunnies that live in the neighborhood under the trees. The paved path rolls out ahead of you with straightaways, gradual dips and rises. Benches are placed at intervals for a stop and you can always look ahead to shady areas while walking along. Just remember to walk/run counterclockwise and don't be that guy who runs down the middle of the path against the foot traffic and you'll have a great time. Outside the path, on one side there's a big play area for kids - I see regular child play groups here. Climbing things, slide, jungle gym. This abuts 5 beautifully kept tennis/pickleball courts where you'll see all levels of players thwacking balls. The jewel in the crown is the artificial turf soccer field in the middle where you might see high school field hockey, rugby play, all levels of soccer play and practice. There's a low set of bleachers to watch the action on the field and benches to see the courts from. The field is *perfectly* manicured-just beautiful. If you ever wanted to see the New England Free Jacks, a pro rugby team play they occasionally have Saturday practice here! Check the field's Weymouth website, you can see the reservation schedule for everyone playing. You can still walk the path while sport teams are playing, it's roomy enough for everyone. weymouthma.myrec.com/info

This park has several tennis courts which are clean and well-maintained, completely open to the public, as well as a multi-use field, large enclosed playground, and a 1/2 mile paved walking/jogging path that laps the park. There are also gravel offshoot trails, and a small pond. On certain weekends and during community sporting events they open a small concession stand and restroom facilities. Dogs are allowed but are restricted from the playground area and are legally required to be leashed (6ft leashes or less are required)...so far I haven't seen anyone breaking these rules like you see frequently elsewhere. Lots of bike-racks, water fountains, trash cans, and doggy-bag stations. This park is great for families. In the summer months you'll even see a visiting ice-cream truck for the kiddos...

There's a fireman's pole to slide down in both sections. It's dog friendly too but please keep them leashed and clean up after them. There are a few engraved rocks too that have some history and some just facts about nature.

If you're looking for a secluded hidden gem along North River, boy do I have the spot for you!!…read moreIt's called Couch Beach... not sure as to why, but if I had to guess it's because its quiet, quaint and cozy... a place you can relax and enjoy the moment, just like being at home on the couch! Couch beach can be found by entering Twomile Cemetery. There is a small dirt parking lot on the right a little further back on the right hand side. From that little parking lot it's about a 10 minute walk down a dirt trail that is gated off. Don't let it scare you off, it's just stating that motor vehicles aren't allowed... your bikes and feet are welcome to pass through. Once you get back to the beach area you'll see there are some trails, a seating and picnic table area, and a small sandy beachfront. It would be a great place to put a standup paddle board or kayak in the water, however it might be a bit of a hike with it to get there since you'd have to carry it from the parking lot that again is about 10 mins away (maybe about 1/3 of a mile). However, pack up that fishing gear and beach chairs, those are easy to carry and the perfect spot for it. The lake water doesn't seem as clear or clean as the ocean might, but it is beautiful and much warmer! The views here are spectacular and just lovely. Feels like the perfect day date spot, a girlfriend day of reading & rose, or just a place to unwind alone. Highly recommend if you are in the area or fairly close by and looking for a lower trafficked beach area to enjoy!

Mirroring what others have said, you have to walk around the initial large dog park to get to the small - this typically involves some big ones lumbering over and following you down the fence as they eye your little nugget lol. I liked that there were multiple benches for owners to sit on as well as tires, pipes and rocks for the dogs to play around. Not sure about the large park, but the small park has a water faucet to keep your pups refreshed - just bring a portable bowl. Plenty of parking spots at the entrance if you drive over. Do bring mosquito repellant as they ate ravenous after a big rain.

This little pond borders a cemetery, and has a paved walking path divides it, and connects South street to Essex street. On any given afternoon people are there fishing, walking their dogs, and hanging out. It's a quiet spot that's really pretty, and since it's so close to the park in town center, it's easy enough to build a walking route through it that'll help you get some exercise in the great outdoors!

Jenney Pond Park looks like it's in some movie from some make believe town with a Picture Perfect New England setting. This place is Fantastic for Picnics, Walks, Connecting with Nature & Wildlife & De- Stressing & Relaxing. It's just a 2 minute car ride from The Mayflower Ship & Plymouth Rock yet feels like you are hours away. It's completely hidden. The property is 13 acres large, open to the public & has 0.3 miles of public trails. We stumbled onto this hidden gem after parking here to go the Plimoth Grist Mill. After exiting the Grist Mill we walked back to the car & decided to explore. When we saw the fall foliage & picnic area & green grass that was enough to realize this is where we were going to have lunch. We went to one of the top rated restaurants in town Dillion's Local just a few minutes away & got some really good Food to go & eat here. What a beautiful setting to have lunch & see the fall foliage, The Picnic Area, the Walkway, the Pond & the Wildlife & the old wooden bridge. It looks like one of those fake Calendar Pictures but this place is real. We walked all around & saw all the White Swans, Ducks & other Birds. We were completely captivated by this one beautiful white swan that was Cleaning up the Environment & clearing away greenery in the pond - Pretty Amazing! . Now you can come here for Free & have a picnic & walk all around. Be sure to walk across the street & see the Plimoth Grist Mill with its 14 foot tall Water Wheel & Waterfall. It's Beautiful. You have to purchase a Ticket to actually go inside the Mill. But you can get up close for Free right next to the Mill & even visit their tiny gift shop which they sell locally sourced regional Cape Cod products & their own corn milled on the premises. The Grist Mill is only open on the Weekends & Holidays. If you are going to go inside the Grist Mill I recommend that you purchase a Heritage Weekend Pass to see The Grist Mill, The Mayflower Ship & The Plimoth Plantation. You'll Save some Money. Now we could not do all the things we wanted to do in Plymouth in one day so we had to come back the next day to complete our journey. No complaints - because it just gave us another reason to have lunch here again. This time we brought our own Food in a Cooler & enjoyed the picturesque Fall Setting once again. This place is great year round with different wildlife at different seasons. In the spring, herring can be seen going up the fish ladder by the Grist Mill on their way to Billington Sea to spawn. I love places like this that you completely stumble upon & end up being some of the best moments of your trip & it cost NOTHING! It used to be, you had to have Mega Bucks & be really rich to have The Good Life, not anymore. The Game has changed. You've Been Upgraded. Now You Can Live Like A King On A Limited Budget!
