The southwest parking lot can get a bit crowded on weekends, but the ample boat launch and large trailheads more than make up for it. Ashland reservoir is deceptively roomy and no matter how many folks are swimming, boating, or hiking, you feel like you're out on your own. A nice quiet place to do some thinking or to enjoy some family outdoor time.
I hike in and kayak. Park is well maintained and the staff I've interacted with have always been friendly and always make sure people get their cars out before they lock the gates and close. Its quiet, kids swim, most people kayak, canoe or paddle board. Occasional trash but everyone I've seen picks up after themselves and others where they can.
Nice local park. Parking reasonable. Facilities are clean but old. If you're local and don't want to drive to Hampton or Narragansett 90 minutes away, this is good. The only issue is that recently this was part of the Western Quadrant of Ashland where they were spraying for Mosquitoes with West Nile Virus. Since then we've avoided coming here until that's resolved. Otherwise wear long pants and sleeves and use mosquito repellent.
A great place to walk your dog. Has nice open paths that lead around the whole park. It's about 3 miles to go fully around. It's fairly clean with very few droppings.
Awesome park with lots of dogs. Loop around the reservoir is great!
