Kingston State Park

Kingston State Park is a 44-acre nature preserve with a swimming beach on Great Pond. The beach stretches approximately 300 feet (91 meters) along the water and includes separate zones for different recreational uses.

The park is connected to Rock Rimmon State Forest as part of New Hampshire's broader system of public lands. This connection reflects the state's longstanding approach to protecting natural areas across the region.

The park serves as a gathering place for local families who come to play softball, volleyball, and horseshoes together. These everyday activities shape how people in the region spend their leisure time outdoors.

Two bathhouses with changing rooms and flush toilets are located on both sides of the beach near the Park Office. These facilities make it easy to prepare for swimming or change after time in the water.

The park enforces visitor limits during peak times to prevent overcrowding at the beach. This system helps maintain a safe and pleasant experience for everyone who comes to swim.
