Written on: July 24th, 2020 | Fellsmere Park is a perfect location for walking, jogging, or simply spending time overlooking the water. I will breakdown several aspects of the park, so that you are able to see what you are interested in. PATHWAY: The path is smooth, paved, appears ADA accessible. There are some steep hills depending which side you are on. However, the pathway does feel a bit narrow, and can be difficult to adequately social distance walking past others if that is of concern. CROWDING: The park is usually not crowded. There is plenty of space to spread out, even during the COVID-19 pandemic. GOOD/BAD FOR CHILDREN?: Seems safe and good for children. ANIMALS: The park seems to frequent ducks, geese, and other birds attracted to bodies of water. They appear friendly, and significantly exposed to human contact. They are not easily startled. WATER QUALITY: Appears that you should not swim. Fish are catch and release. TRASH/LITTER: The amount of garbage present fluctuates, which is unfortunately expected given the parks location in the city. There is a LOW availability of trashcans, and they are often full. I have written to the Medford Parks and Recreation Department about poor availability of trash repositories on July 20th, 2020. OVERALL: A great park with wonderful views and adequate space. 4 stars for litter/garbage present and low availability of trash cans.

This is a beautiful park. It's a great place to go for a walk or a run. One of the highlights of this park is the lake. There are lots of ducks swimming in the lake, which is quite therapeutic to watch :) There are few benches to sit. Overall, I would highly recommend to this park to anyone looking for a peaceful and relaxing experience. :)

It's a beautiful little park! I'm a professional photographer, and I had a great time getting photos of a family with their new baby. There are lots of different good places for photos, including an overlook, by the pond, a bit of forest, blooming trees, and benches. It's a great place to take photos, or to just hang out!

This place has my heart. I lived in Malden for a year and this was a great place to go for an evening walk. If we couldn’t think of anything or anywhere else to go we’d just go here. There’s a fountain in the spring/summer and geese and ducks. It’s pretty lively too with dogs and all age groups of people.

I visited this park today. I amazed to see the frozen lake first time in my life. It is ideal to visit during summer. Well maintained park with nice foot trail surrounding the lake. Big rocks gives another attraction for the visitors.

A silent peaceful place. A lot of ducks, geese and swans. The pond has two high fountains, and it is surrounded by a small forest. Around the pond there are many benches, also it has few picnic tables.
