The park has numerous ledges and massive boulders. A small stream cascades into the pond. The facilities include a swimming pool, tennis courts, playground equipment, picnic tables, park benches and a playing field. Bathrooms are open in the summer and the pond is groomed for skating in the winter. A detailed brochure on Robin Hood Forest and the Children's Wood is available from the City of Keene Parks and Recreation Department.
Parking is in the lot between the pond and the swimming pool.
A small scenic pond beside Black Brook. Several acres of marsh and forest extend to the north of the pond. The open pasture is perched on the side of Stearns Hill in such a way that it is nearly invisible from the road. From within it you can see Mount Monadnock. Beavers have dammed up a marshy pond on the small stream.
