Tips from locals
Beautiful park with so many family activities such as hiking, volleyball, swimming, and playgrounds. Great place to enjoy a nice picnic and play time!
Freshwater beach, path around pond for walking, playground, picnic area, restrooms, horseshoe pit.
Goodwill Park has Falmouth’s only freshwater public beach. Surrounded by town forest, Grew’s Pond is a favorite spot for many, especially families with small children, and local fishermen too. A town lifeguard is on duty in summer. Parking is ample and does not require a sticker. Restrooms are also available. Within the park’s 86 acres, visitors may choose to play volleyball, horseshoes and other lawn games, or go picnicking, kayaking and canoeing. A new playground on the west side of the park was built in 2016. Two pavilions are available for public use, as are the fire grills throughout the park. Wooded paths connect Goodwill Park to the trails around Long Pond, which is popular for walking, running and mountain biking (and for occasional cross-country skiing and snowshoeing). Access to Goodwill Park is by way of Gifford Street, about three-quarters of a mile north of the intersection with Jones Road. The main parking area is about .3 mile in on the right. The park is open from 10 AM to 8 PM daily.
