This distinct park offers six lodges and seven shelters, all available for rental. Mendon Ponds has many recreational areas, a boat launch, Sharon’s Sensory Garden, and Wild Wings, a not-for-profit educational organization that houses and cares for permanently injured birds of prey, which are no longer able to survive on their own in the wild.
