Editor's Take

Best for families who want a splash pad as part of a bigger summer day rather than a stand-alone quick spray stop.

Atlas Perspective

About the Venue

Storrs Pond Recreation Area Splash Pad is a motion-activated outdoor water-play area in Hanover, just steps from the pond inside the larger Storrs Pond campus. Families can pair splash-pad time with the site's heated outdoor pool, sandy beaches, picnic spots, tennis, disc golf, hiking, and rentals, making it more of a full outing than a quick neighborhood spray stop. The official site describes it as fun for all ages, and the setting works especially well for mixed-age siblings when you want flexible water play instead of a pool-only visit.
