Reviews of Frank Melville Memorial Foundation
"Pretty place with half mile paved loop around small lake. Dogs are welcome! There's also a small wooded area."
"A very beautiful park, great for a relaxing walk or jog. Great photo opportunities. Always an enjoyable visit."
"It's a beautiful park open from dawn to dusk. Parking is behind the post office and can be a little tight, so it's usually easier to park along the street (so long as you don't park in the two spots set aside for the post office). There are two paths. The first is paved, goes around the pound, and is about 0.4 miles long. The second involves an unpaved portion that goes around a forested and protected area and, when added to the pond path, is 0.8 miles long."
"This was our first time at Frank Melville Memorial Park. We walked around the park, met let’s of pleasant people with well behaved dogs walking on leash & met a bird watching group looking for a certain type of bird. Nice way to end our day. Pretty place to take photos of your four legged babies too."
"One of my go to places for local birding. Great park, leisurely walking trails and on a good day you can easily score fifteen or twenty bird species. The resident mute swans are always around."
