A 15-acre white pine forest off Spring Street, bordered by Tabor Academy, with a large stone fireplace and a network of walking paths, plus a dirt-road walking connection to the harbor.
What to expect
Trails
Intersecting foot paths through white pine forest; a dirt road on the north side leads to the harbor.
Dogs
Dogs must be under restraint at all times (leashed, at heel and obedient to command, confined to the owner's property, or in a vehicle) under the townwide Animal Control bylaw. There is no townwide seasonal dog ban on non-beach town land.
Hours
Dawn to dusk. Marion has no single codified park-curfew ordinance we could locate, but "dawn to dusk" is the hours posted at nearly every Marion-owned park, landing, and conservation property.
