    For my 100th review - a great place for dog walkers and artists!  Come here to throw off the shackles of your leash - for both can roam free here.  Only 1 hour by car from Boston/Cambridge.

    Oh, and... this place is STUNNINGLY beautiful.  Absolutely breathtaking.

    Now on to more good news: it's free of charge and open 7 days a week.  Ample parking at the trail head, and a totally decent compost toilet is in the main barn (unlocked on weekends till 4 pm).  The Cox reservation was once the home of a mural artist, and is today the headquarters of the Greenbelt Association, a chain of parks on the north shore.  To this day the reservation has kept its artsy flair.  Painters flock there to capture the stunning views of the Essex River and the golden marshes.
