Westmoor Park Review

What looks like a great little demonstration farm, is also a great place to wander through the woods and fields and experience a pristine natural environment. Bring your little ones here to meet all the farm animals, like chickens, cows, goats, lamas, pigs, and even a horse. There are also bunnies, ducks, and a goose. Inside the office you will find snakes, lizards, and frogs. But that's only half the farm. Manicured gardens stretch 100s of feet to the back of the field. There you will find paths the meander past ponds and a brook and into a small forest hidden within this West Hartford treasure. This place loses a star since I can't bring my dogs to walk along the paths with me. Picnicking is also not allowed. These restrictions are mainly to protect the animals that live here and are also why this park tends to be the most well kept in terms of litter. If you live nearby, you should certainly visit this hidden gem.

Great place to hike! Farm animals are nice addition.

Lots of great family hiking trails and kids live the animals on the farm. Perfect place for an outdoor family afternoon.

Fun little place to take kids to see farm animals and get some nature.

A few farm animals very simple. Good for a small walk. You cannot pet the animals so don't get your hopes up.

Grew up with this place and now my children get to enjoy it too. Nature trails, gardens, and a ton of farm animals (close animal interaction unavailable during pandemic) get over there before it's too cold!

Beautiful quiet park, nice pond, wildlife.
Great place.

Good
Ya good

A hide gem in West Hartford. Many walking paths and stop by and see the livestock.

Came with my 2 year old son. Perfect place to see and pet animals.

Beautiful and relaxing. The people that come here are respectful of environment and social distancing! I take my daughter as often as I can!

A peaceful place to sit under a tree and turn off your phone for an hour.

You can't go into the farm or building right now, but you can still see the animals and walk the trails.

Best place for kid's to see live animals within west Hartford

Goats chickens rabbits Ducks horses all sorts of cool little animals to check out in a nice place to go for a walk as well

I love this place i went there for a feild trip. It was great.

School field trip was nice. A trail into the woods. Farm animals. Reptiles inside. Very big. Nice n clean. Good for the kids.

The most peaceful park with plenty of beautiful nature areas to observe

Amazing park and summer camp awesome consolers and amazing things to do

Fantastic place away from the bustle of Bishops Corner.

This little gem is tucked behind Bishops Corner but you would never know the commercial area is right around the corner while you re at the park. It s peaceful and beautiful with well maintained gardens and walking paths. Aside from the farm animals, the park is alive with wild turkeys, turtles, bunnies, song birds and water birds. It s a wonderful place to visit no matter your age!

Love it. Nice place to relax with friends and family

Enjoyed an early morning walk on the trails ... highly recommended

Great place for a walk or to take the kids out lots of animals!!!

Great place to bring the kids and for a nice walk and or picnics . And we r building a huge fireplace with the gazebo thy r putting on there property to hold class rooms so go out and support them and donate to the farm it's worth it.

6 stars. But don't tell a soul. And leave your phone at home.

See if you can find the Sequoia.

I kid you not.

Great family resource. Wide variety of farm animals and other wildlife, gardens, nature trails and It's all free of charge.

Westmoor park is awesome and I love all the animals they are all so nice and cute this place has an awesome summer camp where the staff are all nice and where you can take care of the animals.

Beautiful place its green areas I only would have liked to see more animals

The animals were adorable and the staff was amazing! I'm definitely coming back!

Great place for a birthday party or to just bring your kids. Lots of different animals to see and pet.

Fun place to bring kids. You can check out the animals and also hike around some of the trails they have in the back

Very nice place to take the family too. The employees are polite and its very scenic. I love this place and would definitely go back.

My grandparents were (are) farmers. Growing up on the farm and around the animals was a priceless experience, in retrospect. There s something to be said for a more simple (not easier!) life.

Appreciate what you have, give thanks for what s to come... and it s amazing that Westmoor Park opens their doors to the public. And thanks to charitable donations, the Westmoor experience is available free of charge.

Wonderful farm oriented park. Friendly informative staff.

I never knew this place existed, until I looked up farms nearby on Google Maps. I love Westmoor Park. It s great to see the animals roam around and enjoy themselves. They have a barn cat, that walks around the property, it is very friendly. It s very peaceful and relaxing to visit the park. They have educational classes and demonstrations with the animals. I look forward to coming here in the spring.

Great scenery. Fun summer camps. Kind animals. Apply a lot of bug spray before coming.

I have been going to Westmoor for 36 years. I love to walk in the back towards the water. The willow trees are beautiful. Very quiet park.

Beautiful place. Lots of farm animals and huge park

We first went here for a friend s daughter s first birthday, and have been back several times since with our own little girl. It s a wonderful place to kill some time with little ones while being outside and teaching them about animals. You can t beat the price (free)! We love Westmoor Park!

Beautiful place my son was delighted I would have liked to see more animals

Great place to bring your little ones, plus they offer different classes for all ages!

Duck pond, Bridges, a fountain, geese, swing sets and two sets of children's play areas... Picnic tables, and a small baseball diamond.. in the summer the splash pad and large public pool are very popular!

Nice animals, mostly for the younger kids. However, some very nice trials for hiking.

My daughter loves coming to see the animals. What a great day trip for a free family-friendly adventure.

Fun family place to see the animals plus a safe nature walk through the forest. A quiet afternoon stroll.

What a beautiful place! Cute animals, gorgeous gardens, and room for my toddler to run. We really enjoyed our morning here.

Livestock, extensive gardens and a large network of trails through a variety of settings make this park a guaranteed winner with young children. Day camp programs are also very popular.

Such a beautiful place for outdoor education, a walk through the woods and/or birdwatching. A must-visit spot year round with kids!
