The Park was located on part of the main battlefield of the Revolutionary War Battle of Bennington. (August 6, 1777) The resort itself was not too elaborate, consisting of only two or three acres of lawn, with trees, flower beds and a fountain, swings, seats, and a platform for band concerts.
Reached by a bridge across the Walloomsac River was a grove with benches and tables for picnic parties. Later, a dancing pavilion was erected and for at least two seasons vaudeville shows were offered. They were discontinued because of their failure to attract the anticipated crowds.
