Alden St Playground

Amazing little playground. Although this park is located right next to the Duxbury school buildings / athletic fields, it is open to the public (prompting this review, as I was unsure if it was public).

The playground is fully fenced in and has a gate that latches. There are a few benches and a beautiful and large tree that provides a fair amount of shade.

The playground has 3 main structures. The younger kids structure is probably the best in the area for kids 4ish and younger. My 1.5 year old is able to get on the structure and go down all the slides by herself (closely supervised). The larger structure looks great too. Lots different things to climb on and has some larger/faster slides. The 3rd structure has unique balance beams and monkey bars.

The park has swings, baby swings, and an accessable swing. There are a few spring riders (rocking horse like - animal on a spring) and spinner that looks a lot safer than the ones I grew up with.

This park is great for children of all ages, but the equipment here, for younger children, is the best in the area.

Very well maintained. Equipment for kids of all ages. Shaded seating areas. A gem of a park.
