    The play ground is ok and good to take your kids to do exercise...The field is clean and good size for soccer and other games.

    Fun and different playground option. My kids loved the unique play structures in this playground. Different than the others in the area. Not huge, but just enough to be exciting.

    It's great! Awesome field (but lots of black thingies get in shoes) and mini playground area with a building behind it!

    Visited during a birthday party. Nice set up, fun things for kids to do (dodgeball, games, hang out room with pool table, basketball game, videogame, outside playground, large fields, walking path). Staff was engaged and kids had fun.

    The Cole center has a great artificial turf field for sports and a natural field for running your pooch or other activities. There is a nice playground there that is even as I write this getting new equipment. There is also an asphalt walking path around the field that is 3 laps to the mile. There's also a portapotty and when the Cole center iself is open, there are water fountains inside. Great, well used location.

    Nice playground for smaller kids as it's limited in equipped and gets crowded. Great soccer fields on both sides.

    Love how they have renovated the fields. It's very family oriented and maintained. It's nice to see kids and families and sport teams there walking and playing in the fields.

    I have lived in various towns and the Parks and Rec in Natick has been the best. They have many options of activities for kids and all the grounds of the town are kept clean and beautiful.

    I coach my daughter's soccer team. We had a gane at Natick Rec Center this past Saturday, Sept. 9th. First game of the season. It was easy to get to, there is on and off street parking, the fields were turf and were very nice. The parking lot does get filled fast as well as the off-street parking. There are 3, maybe 4 fields on 1 side, and I believe younger age fields on the other. If you play at Cole North, and you're field A OR B, I suggest parking on the street next to the fields because it's easier and closer. Natick has always had very nice soccer fields, from what I can remember playing soccer against them as a kid. I believe there was also a playground to the right when you pull into the parking lot, so do it with caution, especially if the lot is full. Some of the cars block your view of the people leaving the playground.

    My son has been doing archery through Natick Parks and Rec for a few years. The online booking system is easy and any time I've needed to call, the staff was super helpful.
