Awesome spot to bring the whole family. The water is great for swimming when it's warm out and a fun spot to fish. Lots of little fish for the kids.nnBig field for sports, swings for the little ones and a nice jogging trail that goes across to Gambo fields and over the dam back to Shaw park.nnThe Kayak and canoe launch is great!nnAll around just a great spot with a little something for everyone.
Shaw Park has free parking, swimming, a swing set (about 4+ swings) & a big, grassy field for picnic's &/or running around and a pretty clean portapotty!! There's a small, grassy beach to put your belongings down. They also offer canoe, kayak & SUP rentals at decent prices.
I love putting in at Shaw Park. It's got a great little beach which makes getting on my SUP less messy especially with the pups. I think you can rent kayaks from the city of Gorham, but you should check their website to be sure.nnIt's a great place to swim with kids or even do a couple laps across the river and back. I don't think I've ever seen a motor boat come through. Just lots of kayaks and small fishing boats. Lots of people jump off the bridge into the water (though I'm not so daring myself!).nnAdditionally they have a wonderful little loop you can walk or run. Baseball fields and a little swing set. Portapotty is close to the river and there's a little shack with a bathroom that is sometimes open.
