What to expect
Dogs
Cambridge requires dogs to be leashed, on a leash no longer than six feet, whenever off the owner's premises and not under direct control in a designated off-leash area. That's the town-wide default; watch for posted signs here.
Hours
Cambridge parks and playgrounds are open dawn to dusk year round, with extended hours to 10:00 p.m. from April 1 through October 31. Posted hours at the entrance win if they differ.
