wonderful place to walk and see some small animals. They have a petting area and sheep. It is free and kept very clean. If you enjoy nature you will have fun.

Borderland State Park

The 3-story home built by artist and suffragist Blanche Ames and her botanist husband Oakes, is the centerpiece of this park. Visitors can also walk and horseback ride, fish, canoe, ice-skate and sled.

Reviewed By jakegreenville - Milton, Massachusetts

Borderland State Park has easy trails for walkers and more challenging ones for hikers. I took the easy 3 mile walk which is a slightly uneven unpaved road that includes woodlands, three ponds, interesting rock formations, meadows and farmland. The mansion was closed during my visit, but the exterior is interesting and worth inspecting. The park is large and uncrowded. There is a visitor center with restrooms and trail maps. Overall a top walkers destination. Bring insect repellent.

Fuller Craft Museum

Reviewed By Laurie K - Milton, Massachusetts

This place is such a gem. More people need to frequent it! Not only is it set in a beautiful environment with a lake replete with classic swans swimming, but there's an outdoors sculpture/sanctuary type landscape as well as the beautiful architecture of the main exhibit building itself. The exhibits I saw recently were outstanding. Old glass repurposed in wonderful and fanciful ways as well as an outstanding modern tapestry exhibit. There's always some community based exhibits as well as the museum seems committed to partnering with the local schools and children to support artistic development. There's a delightful walkout onto a terrace which sits right on the lake. You feel as if you are in a floating Japanese style space. Tho the snack cafe wasn't opened when we visited it seems a perfect place to sit with or without food. There is ample free parking and its so refreshing to be outside the city in a short, traffic free drive to see good art/crafts. Can't say enough good things about this place!

This aerial forest adventure is fun, exciting and safe for all participants. We provide a harness and equipment and give you a safety briefing that demonstrates how to climb and zip line in the Park. There are 10 separate trails of varying levels of difficulty ranging from beginner to advanced. Every trail has a zip-line! Incredible fun for everyone - families and groups. Come spend the day at Greater Boston's #1 outdoor adventure attraction!

The name says it -- tree top adventures climbing and balancing and zipping, all with an amazing safety system automated so any age, any language speaker can enjoy the experience. It is physically and mentally challenging, and each person can choose his or her own difficulty level, although everyone must do easy to intermediate before expert. It is like an aerial obstacle course with zipping and a few rappelles. Go off peak for lower wait times (price breaks for evening and groups of ten or more). The price is worth it, divided over all the hours of adventure! I went with three other adults and six kids ages 11-15 and everyone loved it. Enthralling respite from brain-oriented daywork!

The Hall at Patriot Place

The Hall at Patriot Place presented by Raytheon is an exciting, innovative and interactive, modern museum experience for all ages. The Kraft family, in an effort to preserve team history and honor the greatest Patriots of all-time, built and opened The Hall in 2008. It has since undergone championship renovations to enhance its Super Bowl Experience exhibit, which takes guests inside the team’s five Super Bowl wins. It includes the sparkling Vince Lombardi Super Bowl trophies and championship rings, an interactive that allows guests to virtually make Malcolm Butler’s Super Bowl XLIX-clinching interception, and the new Anatomy of a Comeback area that breaks down the Super Bowl LI win. The Hall regularly adds to its collection and changes out artifacts and exhibits to ensure a fresh experience.

I brought my daughter here because it was raining out. We got the wristband with the general admission and plaster painting, laser tag, and unlimited bowling. My daughter had a great time, the play place is fun and there's 1 indoor bounce house. We thought there would be more bounce houses but regardless she had a blast and made new friends. Its a great way to spend time if its not so nice outside. I wish we didn't live so far away or I would have signed her up for their summer camp program!

Ward's Berry Farm

Reviewed By Kiev_Traveller - Kiev, Ukraine

We were offered an unprofessional staff of Facebooking Teenagers to make us $10 sandwiches that were not so great. Just another example of overpriced foodstuffs masquerading as "organic" or "home-made" most likely made or grown by a 3rd grader.

If your the type of person that enjoys paying too much for something then this is your new favorite place. $18 frozen pie that was basically made with canned pumpkin pie filling or tasted just the same as. Pimple faced teen employees struggling to understand basic customer service and ringing up items.
"Organic" potatoes half of which are rotted through and through but pristine exterior?
Can't really think of anything to recommend other than if you like buying lemonade to support little kids playing at business people I guess you might walk away from here feeling good about being fleeced.

The Children's Museum in Easton

Reviewed By DeAnaTayla - Weymouth, Massachusetts

Its an excellent idea. The admission fee was sort of pricey for what was included.

The downstairs is good but some things need to be replaced. Silly things like bells on the golfball exhibit.

The face paint section made me cringe. As professional face painter, watching children dip the face paint crayons into water, and sharing them and putting them on their eyes and lips was to much for me. There needs to be some hygienic over sight in the face paint area. One chicken pock or cold sore could spread the germs on the stick. Maybe have trays that can be wiped clean with a baby wipe instead of all the children using sticks.

The craft room was great upstairs I loved that idea. The doctors room was a little rough, The baby dolls were beat up, the toys were sparse,.. but the kitchen/play food exhibit was GREAT! - lots of stuff to go around for all the kids. Sitting area for the parents. I thought that was cute.

would we go back again? Mmm not for the drive and price, id rather go into boston for a bigger selection for $5 more.

We just learned about Simpson Spring after living in Easton, MA for 9 years!! There is a small farmer's market on Saturday from 10-2 year round. There is a mix of food (cookies, breads, etc), coffee, organic beauty products, alpaca products, and of course Simpson Spring flavored drinks. It is nice to spend $ to support the local small business and we will continue to visit often.

Nice field, it's too bad they couldn't get a minor leauge team there, but with the Pawtuket Red Sox being so close it might not work. Still a fun night with the present teams and decent prices on the food and beer.
