Bemis Land

Bemis Rd.

This 72-acre wooded parcel of hemlocks, pines,oaks, and hickories follows Gulf Brook toward its convergence with the Nissitissit River. Deer, fox, coyote, beaver, mink, and many different birds can be found here.  The main access to the land is the above-pictured and easy to hike path off Bemis Rd. However, one of the loveliest sections of the Jeff Smith Trail (blue dots) runs through this land on the other side of Gulf Brook with access from the Nashoba Conservation Trust's Day Land off Lawrence St.. That 0.6 mile section of trail starting from Lawrence St. eventually connects with the Beaver Brook Association land in Hollis, NH. 

Follow Brookline St. northwest toward the NH border. Go 1.4 past the intersection with Park St. Turn left onto Boynton Rd. and take your immediate right onto Bemis Rd. Go 0.7 miles to the dirt road on the left just before the Water Department building.  Park on either side of the road.

Recreational Uses:

Hiking (easy to moderate).
Nature observation
Fishing
Horseback riding
