Once part of the 18th-century farm of royal Governor Benning Wentworth, this coastal hideaway borders the shoreline of tidal Sagamore Creek. The historic Carey Cottage, built in 1887, is newly-renovated and now leased by GoodWork, a nonprofit organization (the building is not currently open to the public). The short trail around the property follows the shoreline past a canoe/kayak launch and a human-made tidal pool. Enjoy views of Portsmouth and Little Harbor as you make your way along the water's edge and through the forest on this 1.5 mile path that connects the Creek Farm Reservation to the grounds of the Wentworth-Coolidge State Historic Site and City of Portsmouth conservation land. From the Creek Farm parking area, walk across the lawn toward the Creek Farm kiosk and the water's edge. Walk along Sagamore Creek past lilac bushes until the trail turns left to go around a man-made tidal pool.
