Fessenden School (map)
Street: Albemarle Rd or Fessenden Ln
Comments: The parking lots are free. There are two big hills here - one goes straight down, which is classic, and the other hill, which is more risky, curves around ("dog leg" in golf terms) with a half pipe-like ridge that prevents you from flying off course. Check out the dog leg hill if you're after thrilling tubing in Newton.

Casey Park (map)
Street: Watertown St
Comments: Only on-street parking available, but it's free. One of the weakest sled hills I've seen, it's more for kids sledding.

Street: Lowell Ave

Charles River Country Club (map)
Street: Winchester St
Comments: One of my favorite spots for tubing in Massachusetts. No convenient parking so you'll have to park on a nearby side street. Beware that the golf maintenance road (marked with a sign) is off limits - I've parked there and was approached by a police officer saying I can't do that.
