Charming. Nice place for walk or run, nice small park for Revolutionary War enthusiasts.

My wife and I had a great experience at Putnam memorial. Nick at the visitor center was fantastic and very knowledgeable about the camp and the revolutionary war. If there's one person that knows his stuff and is passionate about the work that they do, Nick is definitely that person. We had a great chat and honestly felt welcomed. We hope to see Nick in the future and if you get the chance to stop in, you won't be disappointed. And say hello to Nick!

Museum and trails were great. Told the story of the British invasion.

Questions & Answers

Are dogs allowed in the park in July if they are on leashes?

Leashed dogs are always welcome!

Can you ride horses there?

I don't know. Seems a bit small to me for horse riding.

Why is the growth by the pond's edge being removed? What criteria was involved considering the importance of the natural growth for erosion, food & shelter for birds, insects, and mammals? Isn't top priority to its inhabitants not to our aesthetics?

It might have something to do with the current EEE cases.

Is there a covered pavilion for a small outdoor birthday party here, (in case of inclement weather)? About how many picnic tables are available for use? Are there proper restrooms here? Is there swimming available? Thanks in advance!! :)

There is not a pavilion, there are a lot of tables but are scattered, restrooms are more like outhouses with no running water and there is no swimming.

Do they have camp grounds for RV
