4.0The Butterfly Place(211 reviews) - Spendy for such a small place. Nature & Wildlife Areas
This place is good for a 30 minute visit, not much more. It was fun to see all the beautiful butterflies, and if you sit down they often will light on you. Wear bright colors they say. They have zebra finches here too, that are delightful. A fun visit for young children, especially girls. It's a relatively small place however, and much more than 30 minutes, one can get bored. They have a smallish pond with goldfish in it, and the butterflies seem to congregate around this portion. Wish it was much, much bigger. Not really worth the price...as it was spendy for such a short amount of time there. The butterflies are exquisite though.See more..
4.5Nashoba Brook Wildlife Sanctuary(4 reviews) - Hidden gem for hiking and connecting with nature Spent 1-2 hours Nature & Wildlife Areas This is a wonderful place to hike through the woods and beside a lake. I spent less than an hour there due to time constraints but I could have spent a lot more time. It's clean and peaceful, with the entrance located at the end of a cul de sac in what appears to be a relatively new development. It's great for solitude or the entire family. Although I didn't see any mammals, I could hear many birds singing. I was touched by a memorial built beside the pond by some children for a relative who had died in a war. They planted a bush in the sun and left a watering can so those who visit could help with the watering. I highly recommend a visit here!See more..
