Jack Flats has really become my home. I moved to MA from MD years ago and never really felt at home until I moved to Jack Flats. The neighbors are friendly, the staff is incredible, the grounds are well-kept, my dog has plenty of space & a dog park, the town of Melrose is wonderful, and the train is just a short walk away. I've always felt safe and secure at Jack Flats and in Melrose generally.
