We frequent this place very often. The flower gardens in late summer at spectacular. Free concerts in the summer and plays for a donation, bring a picnic. So much to do, so much to see. love this place

Not anything special in the winter (except that it's on the Piscataqua River with scenic views) but in the spring/summer, the flowers are incredible. Beautifully laid out beds. Definitely worth seeing while you're in Portsmouth

The park is quite large for a smaller city like Portsmouth. It's right on the water, and you can sit on benches and check out boats, people fishing and just take in the views.

Perfect place to have lunch when in Portsmouth. Lively (always something going on), beautiful with trees and tulips everywhere and a great view of the Piscataqua River and Kittery across the water...and just a block or two from downtown.

There is a profusion of colorful flowers, the relaxing sound of water fountains, shady trees, and plenty of benches along paved walkways. Bring a picnic and spend the day. In the summer there is music as well... More

Seems to be an awful lot of trash on the grounds leftover from the busy pedestrian activity and plays or functions. Located opposite historic Strawbery Banke, the... More

We used to live in Portsmouth and spent many an afternoon enjoying a stroll through the park, admiring the flowers and just being near the water. We also enjoyed the concerts and other special events they'd have in the park. As others have said, it's an easy walk from downtown. If you're visiting Strawberry Banke, the colonial part, it's just... More

Beautiful, well kept park. The flowers were abundant and the colors were vibrant. The waterfountains and pathways gave this park a welcoming feeling. Very enjoyable and relaxing.
