Nice walk along the creek that the Pilgrims and Native Americans used to get their fish and their water. One of the ponds needed attention...it needed cleaned...it was a wonderful walk with nice benches to sit and relax in the shade. More

Not so many years ago, Brewster Gardens was sinking -- for real. Any serious rain would cause Town Brook, which runs through it, to overflow, washing away the grass and eroding the paths. But an ambitious town project solved the drainage problems, and beautiful natural grasses and other organic-style landscaping have turned this into a jewel of a place. One... More

This is a great place to rest your feet and feast your eyes, let the kids run off some excess energy, and still be in the middle of civilization. Walk all the way up to Jenny Pond, then make it a bouble-bill with Burial Hill. More

This is the original site of where the pilgrims settled as you can see it has a stream running through it. They needed a source of water daily. It is great taking a stroll through the pathways. More

We were walking around Plymouth and found this place. Small river going through and the kids enjoyed seeing the ducks up close. Lots of monuments with history to read about. More

This is quiet, well manicured park for a quiet rest. It is a welcome stop while you are sightseeing. More

The gardens were redone which is nice with the bridge going across the river which is where we actually had some of our wedding photographs taken.

The walk from the jenny Grist mill, through the Brewster gardens to the waterfront is one I have taken with my family tens of times. It is one of my favorite places on the South shore, by far. Why drive to the waterfront when you can walk and view the beauty of nature and a well-maintained Garden walk? There is... More

Brewster Gardens is public area, peaceful and scenic; located 5 minutes from Plymouth waterfront (Mayflower II and Plymouth Rock) and 3 minutes from downtown area. Stroll through the garden and fine tune your plans for your Plymouth visit. Excellent rendezvous location for groups. More
