Where can you grill outdoors North of Boston??(either bring your own or grills/pits provided)

I really crave cooking outside but can't where i live. Are there any parks, etc where you can go to cook outside? I have seen bbq grills at Stagefort Park in Gloucester, if they still are there..wondering if they still do it and if there are other places.. Prefer between Woburn and Danvers, along the 128 line if possible. Also, not in the area, but can you cook at Cochituate State Pk in Natick? THanks!!

    Winter Island in Salem and at the Willows, both are right on the water. The Willows is free, Winter island is not.

      There are charcoal grills in the campsites at Harold Parker State Forest in Andover. They're the utilitarian, boxy metal kind. Pretty sure you can bring your own.

          I'm pretty sure you can grill at Sandy Beach in Winchester, but I'm thinking it's gas grills only.
