    No walking on the rocks
    Anrana S.

    Kind of a dump of a park. Since it's LI sound - there are no waves. The water is stagnant and smelly. They have a fishing pier. So the place reeks of dead fish. I came in October. Port a pots. Yuck There are sidewalks. But they don't lead anywhere. So not a place to go for a walk. There are tennis courts and baseball fields. All covered in goose poop.

    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.

    Absolutely stunning. Hidden in the middle of a beautiful neighborhood is this gorgeous park. It's…read moreobviously great for hiking, it has a beautiful river, it's wooded and serene. I took my dogs out for a walk and it was just breathtaking. It looks like it might be a little bit of a secret so I hope it stays that way because it's pretty untouched. Love this place

    A decent little park. One of the better ones in Stamford…read more 2 recent October Sunday visits I saw quite a few dog walkers, joggers and fishermen. Yet the park was relatively empty. 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?)

    We were in the Stamford area and wanted to check out a nearby park. I saw that a few larger ones in…read morethe area charge a parking fee of $20-25. 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.

The park has an inspiring story too; it used to be a dirty, concrete river channel but was turned into a lively green space. It even won awards like the American Planning Association's "Great Places in America." It has a modern carousel pavilion that's great for families, along with a sparkling fountain and an ice skating rink. There's lots of benches scattered along the path by trees. You can hear the water flowing over rocks or enjoy community events such as outdoor movies, fitness classes, or summer concerts. Whether you're seeking calm by the river or the energy of a weekend event, the park offers a little escape right in the heart of Stamford.

    Sue McGraw Friendship Playground is an inclusive playground that opened at Mill River Park in…read moreStratford, Connecticut in June 2025. It was founded by the Mill River Park Collaborative. Funding for the revamped playground was provided by Suzanne McGraw Foundation, a private organization that supports causes related to early childhood education, animal welfare, and other community initiatives, with additional support from the Connecticut State Department of Energy & Environmental Protection. A playground had originally been built at the park in 2006 by 1,500 volunteers over just five days. However, 15 years later, the equipment and landscape showed signs of wear, and the traditional forms of the structure no longer aligned with the larger vision for the park. The new playground includes natural play areas with logs, boulders, and plantings aimed at inspiring creative and adventurous play experiences. There were also efforts made to ensure that the space is more inclusive through the installation of adaptive swings, wheelchair-accessible ramps, and sensory play zones designed for children of all abilities. My family and I recently visited the Sue McGraw Friendship Playground while we were visiting family in Stamford. The playground has been beautifully designed and meticulously landscaped. My two sons really enjoyed how the playground took inspiration from the creatures that reside in and along the Rippowam River, including two friendly turtle-shaped climbing structures that anchor the main play area and Tot Lot on either side of the playground. There's even two public bathrooms that resemble gigantic frogs. There were several opportunities for my sons to spin, swing, touch, wobble, bounce, and balance. We all really enjoyed our visit to the playground and we highly recommend it to families with small children!

Excellent acoustics and high-end electronic equipment help the speakers and performers give their best.

There is plenty to do there from an indoor basketball court to a complimentary tea tasting. There is also a library and plenty of common areas where people can read or get work done. Everyone who works there is very friendly and helpful. They have a lot of different free events, so would recommend checking their schedule online before going. It wasn't super busy when I went, but would suggest getting a free ticket online in advance just in case.
