Always a great day on the links at Poquoy Brook! I really enjoy the well maintained greens and the serene calm. Players are respectful and the staff is terrific. Stop in for a quick bite on the turn or after 18 and you won;t regret it.

We went this past Saturday for the Santa VIP experience. We overall had a really good time. But will only call it 4 star for a few reasons. I will start with the positives:
-4 year old absolutely loved the Santa experience. It was truly magical to watch her and we are so happy we got to do it.
-Inside and outdoor rides, genius! We were able to get out of the cold when needed but still have fun.
-Thomas Land is adorable, again 4 year old thought it was great and we were all able to go on the rides together which was fun.
-The lights are absolutely beautiful :) And all the animatronics remind me of a place we visited as a child.
Negatives (which have led me to a 4 star rating instead of a 5)
-We had to wait outside until 1:15 (when we bought our tickets it said to get there at 12:30 to get checked in) It was cold but not awful but try to explain to a busy 4 year old that they have to wait in one spot for 45 mins while watching other people in the park (private party) ride the rides. Again, not the end of the world (and if she was older probably not a big deal at all) but slightly inconvenient.
-According to our tix the train ride was supposed to start at 1, we didn't get on the train until 1:30. Also not a huge deal but this leads me to my next issue...
-When we got off the train after 2:05 (park opens at 2) we were not allowed to get into a food building to use the ATM (even when we told the young man at the door we just needed the ATM/not food, he responded that his boss said he couldn't let anyone else in. Also yes they were open at one point but for some reason closed now?) and the outdoor smaller places were cash only. We had left our house at 10am and weren't able to eat until 2:30 at least. This could be fixed by bringing our own sandwiches or something but we were first timers and we expected that we would be able to get something to eat. After all the research I did online and reading the website's FAQ page I would have thought this would be addressed but all it says it most places accept cards and there is an ATM if cash is needed. I just think it's strange that everything in the park wouldn't be ready to go. Wouldn't you begin opening up food places BEFORE the park opens to be ready and not after? Even the hot chocolate lady told us she didn't have water to make hot chocolate with.
-When you do buy food... Holy expensive! At a cost of $44/ticket you would think the food would be reasonably priced but just a hot dog in a bun wrapped in tin foil was $4.50. Not a trip ruiner but just me being picky I suppose. Would definitely recommend you bring your own food which would eliminate most of the issues we had!
-Lastly, there were a few people smoking in the park. In the ride lines where staff could see if not at least smell them. I'm sorry but in a kid park there should be NO SMOKING, and if there is a no smoking rule obviously no one was enforcing it.
Overall the experience was wonderful, would love to go back in the summer to see Dino Land and everything else and we will go more prepared next time. And will also make sure we go after opening not at opening to be sure everything is actually open!

Picture Yourself at a Cranberry Harvest. You will hear about the history of cranberries, learn how they are grown and harvested and then you will put on a pair of chest waders and go out onto a flooded bog with cranberries floating around you. This is a great photo opportunity! Visit our cranberry cottage for fresh cranberries, jams, honey and more!

Reviewed By Kristine G - Massachusetts

My son suggested we make reservations and I'm so glad we did. We visited today and it was wonderful. Scott explained that cranberries, blueberries, and Concord grapes were native to Massachusetts; showed us the equipment they use to dry harvest and then sort and collect the cranberries; and introduced us to Joanne, his wife. Joanne gave us our water boots/pants; guided us into the bog; and took great pictures for us. We stopped in the store on the way out and bought chocolate covered cranberries, fresh cranberries, cranberry sauce, and honey. We highly recommend visiting if you can.

Taunton Public Library

Reviewed By su2doz - Boston (well, an hour south)

If you are looking to borrow a book, DVDs, cd, etc. then look no further. This is a large library with ample books and resources for basic needs. People sometimes study upstairs as it is quiet, and use their computers. I donated some books recently and the staff were very nice. Plenty of books for sale that were really cheap.
