Our anxious golden warmed right up to Mary, which says everything. She was patient, calm, and clearly great with dogs. We feel completely comfortable knowing our dog is in such good hands.

Great Neck Rd
A popular venue for weddings and other events, Harkness Memorial State Park is an amazing attraction that you and Fido shouldn't miss. This 230-acre, former summer estate features landscaped gardens, picnic areas, a beach, and a 42-room Italian mansion. Harkness Memorial State Park is the pawfect place to go for leashed stroll, take in views of Long Island Sound, and watch the sunset with your best friend. It's easy to spend the whole day here, but another gem that's worth checking out is the adjacent Waterford Beach Park. This well-kept secret offers a clean and quiet spot to walk Fido while you listen to the sound of the waves.

Thinking about going for an early morning jog with Fido? Head to Leary Park to get in some exercise. This park contains several athletic fields and more than enough space for you and your dog to run around. There's also a playground and a picnic area where you can take a break and munch on some snacks. For a proper breakfast, drop by the Panera Bread in Waterford Commons, located a short drive away from the park. The cafe and bakery has a spacious patio where Fido can join you while you eat. Another pup-friendly eatery in the Commons is Cold Stone Creamery, which has a couple of outdoor tables.

Rope Ferry Rd
For unobstructed views of the Niantic River, proceed to Mago Point Park in Mago Point, Waterford's only commercial waterfront district and considered by locals to be the town's “lost jewel.” This small park features walkways and benches, and from here, you and Fido will also be able to see the vehicles traveling up and down the Rope Ferry Road Overpass. Just a stone's throw away from the park is The Dock Restaurant, where your pooch is welcome to sit with you on the deck. Enjoy dinner while watching the boats come in and out of Niantic Bay at this dog-friendly restaurant.

Eastern Niantic
The neighboring town of East Lyme is home to one of the most woofderful waterfront walkways in the state. Furtunately, it is just a bridge away from Waterford. The Niantic Bay Boardwalk in Eastern Niantic is a mile-long seaside walkway that overlooks Niantic Bay and Long Island Sound, making it a nice spot to take your pup for a leashed stroll. Note that Fido is not allowed on the boardwalk during summer, however. When that's the case, head straight to Cini Memorial Park, the eastern terminus of the boardwalk. This small waterfront park has an observation deck and benches where you can enjoy views of the Niantic River.
Fort Trumbull
Located in the adjacent city of New London and easily accessible from Waterford, Fort Trumbull State Park is a historic coastal defense fort that sits on the bank of the Thames River. The site of the Naval Underwater Systems Center during the 20th century, the park now houses a visitor center and a 500-foot fishing pier. Step back in time with Fido as you explore the fort grounds and ramparts, follow the walking paths, read the informative markers, and admire the historical monuments and displays, all with the Thames River and Long Island Sound in the background. Admission to Fort Trumbull State Park is free.
