Harrison Park Inn is open year-round to serve the thousands of locals and visitors who come to enjoy the park’s 80 acres of woods, parkland, and water features.

Angela Kemble, in her most recent local restaurant review, writes, “Unpretentious and reliable, this spot has weathered a catastrophic fire in the 1980s, years of economic ups and downs and, despite a change of ownership in 2021, remains the place many people recognize from their youth.”
