Worth knowing
- Some third-party listings describe a different 'Bartlett Park' with a Universal Design playground, splash features, and a lighted paved trail near Oak Avenue and North Avenue; that appears to be a mix-up with Roberts Field/Friendship Park, since both the town's own open-space inventory and CLCT's own page place Bartlett Park at 1 Bartlett Street as conservation land, not a playground.
Common questions

No, entry is free.
Can I bring my dog to Bartlett Park?
Dog-friendly; CLCT's general policy is leash required across its properties.
