Skinner State Park in Hadley, Massachusetts, offers a unique blend of natural beauty and a dedicated dog park area.
Originally established in 1892 as a Veterans healthcare facility, connected to the Sisters of Providence of Holyoke, the park’s history is deeply rooted in providing care for Massachusetts veterans.
This facility received high marks from the Department of Veterans Affairs in 2018, demonstrating a commitment to quality.
While the primary focus has always been on healthcare, a dog park area was developed to provide recreational opportunities for both people and their canine companions, fostering a community space within this historic setting.
The park’s location within Holyoke, a city with a rich history in the paper industry, adds to its distinctive character.
