Dunn State Park

Dunn State Park in Gardner, Massachusetts is a public recreation area centered on a twenty-acre pond within one hundred thirty-two acres of land. Its origins lie in a bequest from furniture manufacturer John Ainsworth Dunn, who left the property to the city upon his death in 1915. The land was later transferred to the state and became a state park. Managed by the Department of Conservation and Recreation, the park reflects the conversion of Dunn’s gift into a publicly accessible landscape for recreation.
