About Ore Bed Park
Ore Bed Park is in the beautiful town of Lenox, MA, and is filled with opportunities for visitors to enjoy the fresh air of the Berkshires. The park's primary attraction is the colorful play structure for children to enjoy climbing through, next to two large swing sets. The playground facilities are a perfect place for children to embrace their imagination and creativity while spending some quality time in the great outdoors. Just across the park's small grassy field is a recreational baseball field for visitors to practice their swing, run the bases, or play catch. Ore Bed Park is surrounded by lush vegetation, sheltering it and making it a quiet spot for a snack on the picnic tables, a game of pickup soccer, or any family-friendly outdoor activity. No dogs are permitted in the baseball field.
The park has a dirt and gravel parking lot on level ground, which makes it a perfect and accessible spot for visitors of all ages and abilities to enjoy. It is located on Housatonic Street, just a short drive from the center of Lenox, which has several excellent restaurants to try out. Also, just a short drive away are a few other popular destinations in the Berkshires: Tanglewood, the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and The Mount, Edith Wharton's ancestral home.
