Howe State Park, nestled within the 965-acre Spencer State Forest in Spencer, Massachusetts, is a scenic area offering a variety of recreational activities. Centered around Howe Pond—a mill pond created by Elias Howe, the inventor of the sewing machine—the park provides opportunities for hiking, canoeing, fishing, and picnicking. While swimming is no longer permitted due to the absence of lifeguards, you can still explore the park's trails and enjoy a picnic by the pond.
