This is our second time visiting Turner Falls. The first I vowed never to return, but that was in the middle of Summer, there were so many people it was suffocating. However, this trip we had a fantastic time! We arrived on 9/18/09, the gate attendant was welcoming and friendly, the park was quiet and only had a small amount... more

We went for our 25th anniversary on 09-01-09. This was our second time and after reading some of these reviews i was very nervous about going back. We got there around noon on a Wed. The people at the gate were very friendly. There were not many people there at all. We went hiking on the trails way above the... more

Want to see the falls? Take exit 47 and use the Turner Falls Curio Shop's overlook. It's free with great view and souvenirs. This was our first trip to Turner Falls and it lasted about 45 minutes. We stayed at an rv park and other guests told us the day before that Turner Falls wasn't fun. It's crowded and commercialized. more

I have been to Turner Falls before, some years ago, and what I saw this time was very disappointing. This park is not fun. Trash everywhere. People smoking pot and no one around to police this. Empty cans and bottles throughout the park. The upkeep on the facilities is minimal at best. Not a good place for kids. I arrived... more

This is not a place for a family outing. It is way over crowded with illegal immigrants. A confusing place on what country you are in. English is not spoken.......I repeat......NO ENGLISH!!!! It is filthy and out of control. I see no beauty like it once had. Very over priced. more

My duaghter started to drown me and her both, but luckily a man saved us (the lifeguards never even noticed- immedicately upon climbing out i looked over at the lifeguards, and NONE OF THEM where even looking at the people swimming.... more

We visited the park on the weekend of 7/25. There was a line of car almost 2 miles long to even get to the entrance to park...took over an hour to reach the entrance gate. The entrance cost was a little steep I thought at $9 for adults. Once inside it was extremely overcrowded. Park staff were not friendly. Parking... more

My 7 yr old daughter and I had a blast at Turner Falls over a 3 day weekend! (Sun-Tues) The water/river/swimming holes were crystal clear and refeshing and clean, and the cabin we rented was clean too. BUT overall, the park was a trashed up mess, and its really too bad because Turner Falls could be top notch with a... more

This is what happens when parks are not supervised and rules are not inforced. unfortunately my Wife,son and I went on a late afternoon Sunday and found out what an overcrowded poorly supervised mess of a park this is. It,s not just the park attendents fault ,It was the lack of respect and misconduct of visitors who left trash in... more
