Clear Creek Park

The castle-themed playground here is legitimately one of the nicer ones you’ll find in this part of Norton — it’s newer, well-maintained, and actually gets cleaned regularly, which isn’t something you can say about every park around here. Kids in the 2-12 range have plenty to work with between the play structure and the basketball court, and adults can take a lap on the walking path while keeping an eye on things. There’s a pond nearby that adds a nice backdrop, and the whole place just has a calm, unhurried feel to it. Not a lot of crowds, not a lot of noise — just a solid neighborhood park that does exactly what it’s supposed to do.
