Picnicking and Facilities at Charles River Canoe & Kayak :: Boston
Our Boston location, situated in Artesani/Herter Park on Soldier's Field Road in Allston, offers picnic tables, an informal playing field, and a walking/biking path. We also have a number of 10' x 10' tents available for group use, which is perfect for picnicking and catering in less-than-perfect weather. Picnickers are also encouraged to use the picnic tables adjacent to our rental kiosk. Groups of 25 or more must obtain a picnic permit from the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation. Click here for information on obtaining a permit.
Just across the Eliot Bridge in Cambridge, the American Legion Marsh Post has an indoor function room that can accommodate groups of 50-75, with an additional outdoor patio area for larger groups. Click here for more information.
