stanley park

Not many small cities can boast a large and lovely private park that is open to the public. This is a peaceful and precious asset, a place for contemplation, exercise, occasional entertainment events and just the sheer enjoyment of being outdoors. The Rose Garden, the wildflower trail, picnic areas, duck pond, athletic fields, walking paths, tall and ornamental trees and shrubs. benches, restroom facilities all contribute to wholesome family outings. Dog friendly and open to all ages, the park represents a generous corporate bequest and private donations that have made the park a reality and a beloved corner of the community for decades.

Stanley Park one of the most beautiful places in Westfield. Neat and clean park. We were went there in last year with my family and had arranged a small party, was a memorable time for me.

Very nice Park. Especially in the spring with the bloom of flowers. The Park attendants do a really excellent job in maintaining the entire Park. The building down below the flower gardens are truly something to see and explore. A very calming experience.

If you like the solitude of the outdoors this is your place. The large well maintained park serves as a place for outdoor weddings and other events. There is a large safe playground for the young kids and several hiking trails. There are several gardens to viewing and if you like to feed the ducks, there is a nice little pond. Nice and relaxing spot.

The first time I came to the park (I moved to the area as an adult) I was impressed with the lovely gardens and features. A variety of styles and features from formal rose garden to duck ponds, Asian inspired areas, etc. Really pleasant place.

Stanley Park is a beautiful place to spend an afternoon. It is used for local sports events, concerts, weddings (my own included) as well as nature classes. The Rose Garden is a highlight. Crowded on the 4th of July.

Found this when checking out Westfield State Univ. What a beautiful and well-kept park. Loved the flower garden, the pond, the walking paths in the woods, and the Japanese gardens. Absolutely amazed by the bathroom facilities. Could spend hours here.

Grew up across the street and now bring my granddaughters to enjoy this very beautiful spot. Safe and clean for all ages. Nice for the play scape, ducks, flowers, and enjoyable walks and events.

There's something for everybody here. There's a great BBQ area, great for an entire family get-together. Right across the way, there's a great playground for little ones. There is ENORMOUS open space for kite-flying, ball-playing, etc. There are great hiking trails, as well as relaxing (paved) paths taking you to a nice garden area, duck pond and light woods. We go here every chance we get!
