An amazing state park blending history with beautiful natural beauty. This is a great place to stroll, have a picnic, or just be with family. The road up is narrow and the park closes at 4:30pm (the last entries are at 4:00pm). There are some hiking trails but the views of the distant mountains, and fields to eat or be with family, are the real attraction.

The park is equipped with picnic tables and a Visitors Center, which houses restrooms, providing a convenient spot for a break. During our visit, no DCR staff were available to answer questions, though a radio was thoughtfully left playing in the background, adding an unexpected touch of ambiance. Its a dog friendly park allowing dogs on leash. While the park holds promise, particularly with its natural beauty, the experience left much to be desired. The main attraction, the natural bridge itself, is unfortunately fenced off, meaning visitors can only view it from a distance. This limitation significantly detracts from the experience, as the centerpiece of the park is essentially off-limits to the public. The drive up to the park on a narrow, single-lane road only adds to the sense of anticipation, which is unfortunately met with disappointment upon arrival. While the small waterfall provides a pleasant enough backdrop for a photo, it doesn't compensate for the restricted access to the natural bridge. Unless access to the bridge is restored, the park remains a place best suited for those with time to spare and no pressing alternatives.

Clean and safe place to take family. But the area to explore is greatly reduced from the past due to closures. They say they will be reconstructed in the future but I didn't see any work being started yet. However, the use of the park is free now because of that so it is a good bargain. The nature trail in the woods behind the visitor center is short but nice. The view of the dam and down into the quarry is pretty. There are plenty of picnic tables and grills in shady spots.

Great place to walk the dog to (entering from the back off of Franklin St) he likes it and likes people there, and let's hope they fix the bridge so we can see one of these days

I've lived here in the Berkshires my entire life and have passed by the signs for this park many times and had never stopped there until a recent afternoon. I was awestruck by the marble walls of the Cliffsides as you enter the park. Beautiful streams and waterfalls too!!! Once up top there were picnic tables and a visitor center The park was dog friendly and they seemed to enjoy taking a dip in the pond.. you could see a nice pathway that must take one to the actual Natural Bridge. I cannot wait to actually be able to walk the path on my next visit..I can imagine the beauty one must see... after im able to complete that I'm sure I will give this park 5 stars!!

Well this was a disappointing trip. I went there really wanting to see the natural bridge, and drove over an hour, to find out that it was not open to viewing. Not sure what's wrong, but the path has been blocked for at least 6 months, probably more. The drive up was pretty cool with the big rocks up 1 side and there's a pretty cool old marble dam at the top. There's a nature trail that runs a little over a mile 1 way. Also the old mill is at the bottom of the driveway. There's an art area with sculptures from high school kids from early 2000s. There are clean bathrooms at the visitor center at the top also. Maybe I'll be back 1 day to see the bridge and up my rating.

I was disappointed about part of the trail being closed. After reading some of the comments about people complaining about the cost. I am not complaining. There was no charge when i went today. It was a nice little walk. Since the main trail was closed i walked the road side to the bottom instead. Got some nice pictures.

Very scenic place. Setting is idyllic. It's nice to look at the old marble quarry. The natural bridge itself isn't very large, but it is still pretty cool. The marble dam is also unique. Unfortunately, many of the viewing platforms were blocked off. Hopefully, they are able to open these soon. Sculpture gardens is one of a kind. Visitor center gives good info on the history of the marble quarry. They do have some nature trails in the surrounding woods as well which are also pretty nice.
