Quinsippi Island

Quinsippi Island is part of the Quincy Park District and in the late sixties and early seventies was developed to be a tourist attraction. The island included a sky ride from the river front to the island, a marina, log cabin village, steam locomotive, and had planned on adding more had the park been successful.

Now you can take the one lane bridge across the river to the island. The log cabins still remain and the Annual Frontier Settlement Day holds a display of life in the 1800's. There are also trails around the island that lead to small sand beaches and a train bridge.

This is a nice blog describing the island today. http://frerxadventures.blogspot.com/2009/08/quinsippi-island.html
