Governor John A. Notte, Jr. Park
Take advantage this summer of our beautiful park with a freshwater
beach. With ample parking, close proximity and (best of all) no
“beach traffic,” Gov. Notte Park is a wonderful alternative to South
County Beaches. This quaint and peaceful park boasts a ball field,
tennis courts, swings for small children, and a rustic, serene feel
that makes you forget that you are only minutes from the “hustle and
bustle” of Mineral Spring Avenue! Our American Red Cross and
State-Certified Lifeguards are on duty as of July 1st, 2010 until
Labor Day.
