You and your family will love Buttonwood Park. Not only is it an ideal destination for sports fans and nature lovers, but it’s also kid- and pet-friendly.

It’s one of the largest parks in New Bedford, Massachusetts, and it’s also very popular.

Some of the things you can do on-site include shooting hoops at the basketball courts.

You can also play with your dog at the park’s ‘Great Lawn’, just make sure you clean up after.

Pick up poop promptly and throw away used bags in designated waste bins.

You also need to bring your dog’s bowl and plenty of water, so you don’t get dehydrated, especially during the warmer days.

After having fun on the lawn, you can relax on the park benches. Visit the park’s website for more information about local events.
