John J Lane Park, Natick

Finding this park was just luck really.  We didn't realize how great it would be.  Again, we were looking for Free Little Libraries so we could get more books and there is a small library right at the entrance to the park!

The park itself is great! It is almost in the shape of an oval with some extra paths stemming off it.  In addition to the climbing "rocks", there is a play structure, swings, and a volleyball court.  The covered pavilion was great for a rest out of the sun, but Tyler and I were content just laying in the grass in the field. Our favorite part was the "exercise area" in the back.  It was a great area to work on our box jumps and pull ups. 

There is also a path that goes up to an outdoor "theater". At the bottom of the hill, there's a very large community garden too!

It's a great space to bring the kids for the afternoon and we'll be there even more this summer!

John J Lane Park is located at 158 Speen St in Natick. Parking is free and the restrooms are open from April to October. Additionally, the park is a carry in, carry out venue- there are no trash cans so be cognizant of your trash!
