absolutely delicious everything!!! of course their cider and apple products are fantastic but their cheeses and pastries of other fruit varieties are so utterly wonderful. 10/10 recommend. also hosts great events on the grounds and supports local vendors. will definitely visit again ❤️

We stopped at this farm market recently on our way home from Oswego. They offer a large variety of items for sale in a somewhat compact space. Besides a large selection of fruits and vegetables, they also have baked goods, ice cream, fudge, honey, maple products, spices, packaged nuts, a variety of vinegars, bird feeders and bird seed, dog foods and dog supplies, house plants, lawn & garden decorations, canning supplies, wind chimes, craft beer supplies, and on and on. They also have an on-site nursery with outdoor plants and shrubs. Something for everyone, and I'm sure I left out some things. Prices were a bit high for a number of items, but that's probably not unexpected. They offer a large parking lot with lots of free parking. A fun place to shop and browse. This property is located on a curve, so pulling out into oncoming traffic as you leave may need some special attention.

We absolutely love stopping here on our trips to our lake house. It is a must! The bakery treats and amazing. The cheese - top notch. Plus all of the fun options for snacks (trail mixes, candies, etc) is second to none.

I met up with my family at this must stop farm shop overflowing with mums, pumpkins, gourds, corn, produce galore and so much more! This is a genuine farm experience, the pumpkins are the largest I've seen for sale this season and the mums are in full bloom in brilliant colors of all kinds! My son enjoyed fresh baked goods and apple cider. No one left empty handed! We headed over to the Fall Jamboree and enjoyed the festivities there as well! Tasty steak sandwiches, Mac and cheese with bacon from the bbq food truck and Wine Slushies from Ashley's were all delish! Pumpkin painting, make your own scarecrows, animals to visit, tons of fun for kids! A must stop farm stand and pick your own orchard! Take the hilly drive through the fall foliage to check out this hidden gem! Jam packed with all fall produce and fresh baked goods with the fresh scent of the pies, donuts, cakes, and giant cinnamon buns and much more, wafting throughout this amazing farm stand as you shop! Many decorative items for fall and Christmas season as well! Fudge, nuts, and all the seasonal treasures you can imagine! I left with a box full of goodies. Help was just a little short even early on a weekday but I can imagine it’s been a super busy season. I was going to go back for a bunch of pumpkins but it seemed they were overwhelmed. I definitely will make the drive again! Ontario Orchard is a staple on my list for Fall Festivities! Another great farm stand with pumpkins, gourds, mums, fresh farm produce, veggies and so much more! Fresh baked goods baked on sight. The lines are long on the weekend but they are fully staffed and move quickly or take a ride during the week. It's a nice drive through the hills and this authentic rustic farm has so much to offer!

Awesome outdoor market with alot of fresh produce and locally sourced meats. They have huge gift section and it looks to be seasonal. Nice staff plenty of parking Price are reasonable. They have a large selection of bake goods which are baked on site.

Great place to buy stone and mulch and truckloads and their homemade goodies is always a perk to stop in

The store was very well stocked with all types of delicious produce and groceries. We purchased some fresh fruits including delicious peaches and cherries, as well as some prepared foods to stock our pantry. We camped overnight in their orchard as guests of the Harvest Hosts Program. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Ontario Orchards near Oswego, NY. As noted by others, the beautiful and secluded campsite is about 5 miles away from the store. The very quiet and serene campsite is located between an apple orchard and Christmas tree grove. The parking was mostly level firm grass, and we were surrounded by birds and wildflowers and were treated to a gaggle of turkeys with their chicks the following morning. We were somewhat hesitant about parking in the grass as there were very heavy rains that afternoon, but the grassy parking area is actially very firm with gravel underneath and we had no problems whatsoever parking and maneuvering our 28ft motorhome. Be sure to bring insect repellent as you are completely surrounded by nature. Fairhaven Beach State Park, and the Sterling Nature Center on the bluffs overlooking Lake Ontario are nearby. We had a very pleasant stay, and I hope to be able to return again.

The park people are knowledgeable of the history of the fort. My grandson and cousins lived being able to walk the ledges around the fort and go down into the underground parts. Beautiful views.

Fort Ontario is a unique star shaped fort located in Oswego, NY. The original fort was constructed in 1755. The fort was the site of many battles in many wars including the French and Indian War, American Revolution, and the War of 1812. The fort would continue to be used as a military base of sorts all the way until the end of WW2. During WW2 the fort took in nearly 1,000 refugees who were escaping the Holocaust. Today, the fort is a New York State Historic Site. For a small fee you can take a self-guided tour of the fort. The fort has a small, but interesting museum on its history through the years. After seeing the museum you can walk around the star shaped fort and visit nearly all of its buildings. The houses and barracks in the fort are well preserved and presented as they would’ve looked in the mid-19th century. The fort has very knowledgeable historical reenactors as well. On top of the well presented history, the fort also offers great views of Lake Ontario. Near the fort on Lake Ontario you can also see a historic lighthouse. Views of parts of the city of Oswego are also possible at the fort. Overall, this is a great historic site to visit. The history here is well presented in an engaging manner. Being able to walk around the fort with its nice views is an added bonus. The fort is an awesome place to visit in Oswego

I don't want to knock it because it was closed thanks to the government shut down. We enjoyed a walk around the fort bur would like to come back in the future to actually get in. Our trip was planned and booked well before the shutdown so just unfortunate timing for us.

Fort Ontario is a stunning historic gem! Watching the Syracuse Symphony perform there last night was magical—perfect blend of history, music, and lakeside charm. The acoustics and setting were fantastic!

You can walk around the exterior of the fort and read about the history for free. There are also picnic tables overlooking the water. There is a nice view of the lighthouse as well. It's great that they have preserved this piece of local history! I stopped over while the fort itself was closed but I would love to visit again to learn more about the history.

This is a beautiful place to relax, to walk, and to fly a kite! Their ghost tours are amazing too! There is such a beautiful view of the lake, especially at sunset. The museum and artifacts are really cool. Be sure to come support this amazing Fort!

If you like history this is a wonderful place to visit. I've been there several times, they dress in period clothes, host reenactments, share the early American historical facts as our country was shaping. There is a small cemetery off to one corner, ask about anything - the staff is very helpful in answering. Great place to bring the kids - especially so they can learn a bit about our country.

Beautiful vineyard to sit and enjoy friends and family. Amazing views of the hill. Selections of wine, cider and sports!

An absolutely perfect place for a wedding (or any event for that matter). My son recently got married there and I can’t say enough as to how the staff went above and beyond to make it a beautiful day. He and his fiancé live in Brooklyn but wanted to be married at the winery because of its fantastic views and beautiful grounds. They were able to work with him long distance and create the exact experience that he was looking for. The staff was knowledgeable and professional. They were able to help him secure vendors and worked well with all the people involved. Highly recommend this hidden gem on the Tug Hill plateau.

We really enjoyed our stay at Tug Hill Vineyards. We visited Tug Hill Vineyards in our RV as a guest of the Harvest Host Program. The venue was very nice with a restaurant and a wine tasting room with an comfortable outside patio. There was a wedding happening the evening that we arrived, and it was fun to watch as a spectator. We tried several flights of their wines and enjoyed a tasty charcuterie board. In the evening we moved our RV from the upper parking area to the U-Pick orchards where we had a spectacular view overlooking the wide valley, and marvelled at the ginormous wind turbines. We had a very peaceful and restful night. and in the morning it was fun to watch the Amish families in their horse drawn buggies heading down the valley roads on their way to Sunday meeting. I wish we could have stayed later to enjoy their Sunday Brunch. A truly wonderful stay.

We went for their "Wizard Brunch", it was great! They had a brunch buffet with plenty of sweet and savory options. Scrambled eggs, bacon, spicy shrimp, shepherds pie, an oatmeal bar, fresh fruit, oven poached eggs with hollandaise sauce (my favorite), etc. They had a seasonal drink menu that went with the theme. Everything was hot and fresh.

If you're in Upstate New York make this a must stop!!! Well worth the trip! Sampling includes wine spirits and brandy! Something for everyone!

This place is me and my husband's favorite Sunday Brunch spot so far. If you go on a nice day, you can even see a very nice view from your seat. Their menu is a little different each week. So before you go check their FB! And also we took a wine tasting & food pairing class once, and it was a so fun!

Our family has a tradition of spending Christmas at a cabin in the woods in the area. We found Tug Hill Vineyards on TripAdvisor and saw they offered a special Christmas brunch. We called and reserved a table for 12:30 seating. We could not have been more impressed! The dining area was beautifully decorated for the season. The service we received was excellent. And the FOOD! They offered everything from poached eggs to beef tips. My favorite was the butternut squash ravioli, while my wife loved the special Tug Hill vodka bloody mary. Our son enjoyed the fresh fruit and the fantastic desserts. Everything was prepared with care and tasted delicious. After brunch, the wine cellar was open for tastings. If in the area, this place is certainly more than worth a stop.

Rented a cottage for a few nights which was exactly as described. No frills, electric, bunk beds, picnic table inside and out, a heater and ceiling fan. The bathhouse was about 200 feet from our cottage which was convenient. The bathhouse was well maintained and the shower water was HOT! spring is still coming to life and the trees are not in full bloom but beautiful nonetheless. Spent one morning kayaking the lake, seems to be fairly shallow and a lot of growth, fishing wasn’t successful. Walked conservation island which is a nice mile loop. Checked out the eagle conservation area but unfortunately didn’t see any eagles. I know the cabins have basic appliances, these do not and it would be a bonus if there was at least a microwave.

Lovely place for paddling, swimming, and hiking. The main lake is just about ideal for kayaking or canoeing. I recommend checking out the Little Falls Trail, as well. Lots of nice views for a relatively short hike.

One of my top 5 PA State parks! Beautiful hiking trails, huge lake for kayaking and swimming, Momma Bears concessions, clean restrooms, 5 campgrounds, Conservation Island, Observation Station is a hidden gem

Campsites are reasonably spaced out for Pennsylvania parks (other parks are much worse). The park rangers are great. I arrived after the office was closed so just went to my site to setup camp. At some point in the morning on their rounds they had come by and placed my parking permit on my car for me. Saved me a trip back down the road. Was very considerate.

Awesome camping along the water at Pickerel Point. Some nice hikes and a beach with concessions. There's some businesses in the village within the park for supplies and teats too.

Promised Land State Park Review: A Must-Stop Camping Destination in Pennsylvania I visited Promised Land State Park during an East Coast camping trip, and it quickly became one of the most memorable stops along the way. This park truly stands out for its size, serenity, and natural beauty. Even with over 500 campsites spread across multiple campgrounds, it never felt crowded. The layout is smart, the spacing generous, and the peaceful forest setting adds to the sense of calm you get the moment you arrive. The hiking here is excellent—trails are well-marked and varied, from short scenic loops to longer treks past creeks, waterfalls, and wooded ridges. Whether you're looking to stretch your legs or spend a full day on foot, there's plenty to explore. What impressed me most was how well maintained everything was. The park staff clearly take pride in keeping Promised Land in great shape. From the clean facilities to the quiet, undisturbed feel of the forest, this is a top-notch destination for anyone traveling through Pennsylvania. If you're exploring the East Coast by RV, campervan, or just car camping—Promised Land State Park is absolutely worth a stop. ~DLM-Campervans

My rating is based on my fishing experience. The lake over all is very nice, has a beach, boat rentals, park like setting etc and is 4 if not 5 star. As a fisherman though the boat launches are shallow for 16ft and larger boats. Definitely can be done but you may need boots or dont mind getting wet. The lake itself is very weedy by mid to late June. Some of it is unfishable. The edges look amazing and there are fish it just takes effort. I did better in the center of the lake where the weeds were 1-2 ft under the surface. I caught at the edges too but also caught weeds. Nice enough lake but for fishing I would only go early Spring or Fall once vegetation dies off. Multiple other lakes I'd rather fish and I live 6 mins from this lake.

My son and I had an amazing time here our tour guide Jessica was absolutely great, and she was really good with my son and he was nervous and scared. It was a little annoying. There was a group of people that took an extra extra long time, but she did take her time to take care of each one of those people which was great for them that kind of stuff for the rest of us having to wait, but it was nice that she cared about everyone. Overall, it was a great experience. It’s a lot of fun. We just had to teach treetop adventure tour. Zip lining long games enjoyed walking around the lake a little bit and the hotel is really nice. Definitely an enjoyable experience for the kids, even for adults who have a moderate fear of heights. This is manageable not very high and a good time. There were a couple questionable obstacles that need a little bit of attention as a woodworker and craftsman builder. I included one such picture, but nothing was in enough damage to cause any issue.

Short version: Amazing service, great staff, treetop thrills! Possibly the only thing better than the treetop adventure course was the INCREDIBLE customer service. We went Friday afternoon for the full obstacle course. After a smooth check-in, we headed out to the course only to return due to thunderstorms in the area. We were on a tight schedule and Skytop had no problem rescheduling us for Sunday morning. We came back and completed the full course (highly recommend!) I see other reviews saying you have to be “really fit” to do it, but it was more about balance, coordination, and trusting your harness. Our guide was very competent and made safety a priority. I had no fear flying through the trees! Huge shoutout to Levi (our guide), Fernando, and the rest of the amazing staff at the Skytop Adventure Center!

The adventure center was so much fun! We took the 2 hours and loved every minute of it. First time zip lining and that was the best part. So many obstacle courses, tight rope walking, rope ladders to climb and we picked a perfect day for it. This place is really cool.

We had a blast on the zip line course. Beautiful scenery and so much fun. Shout out to the amazing staff! Jen, Patrik and Grace are the best!

My husband and I called to make a reservation for 2 for zip lining. Tara answered the phone and was super helpful telling us about the adventure course (2 & 4 hour options). It sounded like fun and a much better deal so we went for it. We drove 2.5 hours into the Poconos to use this as an opportunity to adventure and do some leaf peeping in the fall. We were not disappointed. We stopped at the main building first. We're an interracial couple, and I am the POC who covers with hijab, we felt welcomed; the folks working were receptive and kind, and the staff is diverse. This set an awesome tone for the day. Emily helped us at the adventure center from start to finish. She was is bright and absolutely wonderful - they are lucky to have her!! She is super thorough with safety checks and directions, easy to talk to, very sweet and didn't rush us even when I was freezing up in some moderately high spots (I don't get along with heights). We felt safe and had a great time! Thanks Emily!! The adventure course itself is tucked away in nature, away from suburban and city hustle, the fall colors were still bright and colorful even though we caught them towards the end of the season. The ziplines were a lot of fun, each line felt earned after a course. The Big Zip (Pic attached) was the best highlight at the end of the 2 hour course, we would do this again solely to do this one again! Also, we saw a little black squirrel for the first time and it was AWESOME. We are both active daily but found the course doable but challenging. I felt soreness in my arms like we had a great workout ... (and elder millennial back and knees for us both, but totally worth it!) Driving past the 2nd half of the 4 hour course, Idk if I can make it through a full 4 hours but it will be fun to try one day.

I had an amazing time doing the zipline course! Patrick was so helpful and kind! He made our experience great!! Looking forward to doing this again!

My daughter and I did the 2 hour course. We had a lot of fun and felt parts of the course were challenging. I highly recommend booking it, you won’t regret it. The zip line parts of the courses were fun, especially the long one at the end. Lavi and Fernando, guide and driver up the mountain, were extremely professional. Our safety was never a concern and those 2 guys exceeded every expectation.

Beautiful grounds. The inside of the house was breathtaking and worth the cost. The informative video in the bait house was very interesting. All of the rangers and volunteers were friendly and very knowledgeable. Make sure you look at what time the tours are, the grounds are open all week but the gift shop and tours are only on certain days. Tickets can only be purchased in the gift shop.

This place is incredible! One of the best of hundreds of historical sites I have ever been to. Didn't get to take a tour or go inside cuz it was closed due to government shutdown (thank you Dems), but the outside of the house and the grounds were unreal. Just a short few miles/minutes off 84 close to Milford, definitely worth a stop on your travels. So much to see. Even the bathroom facility in the parking area was a tower. Plenty of parking and great bathrooms with water fountains. Came during fall, so got added bonus of fall decorations, including pumpkins. Can't wait to return for a tour of the inside!

Quiet and vast area filled with history. We walked around the perimeter and soaked in all the beautiful flowers, sun and landscape. There's two levels of parking available and there were tours happening. It was an enjoyable afternoon roaming around.

Wow, wow, wow!! This place was impressive beyond belief. And, it was a complete surprise find while road tripping through the New England states. While we were on time constraints and didn't get to make it inside the house, just the outside is a site to marvel at. I love seeing these types of places and imagine myself living there in times gone by. Hard to believe JFK was here shortly before he had gotten assassinated. Lots of history in the video. Make this a stop on your travels, you won't be disappointed.

Beautiful home full of history of an early time of US history and the begginig of the US Forrest conservamcy movement. Pinchot family involved after they, very ironically, made their fortune in the logging industry and significantly deforested the area. Apparently one of the progeny, grandson, i think, became upset witnessing the ravaged woods in pennsylvania. This personn became the first US forrester after studying in europe. He ultimately was govenor of pa twice and established the US Forrest Service. Mansion built by famous architect of the gilded age. Can only tour the first floor for $10 but it is worth it. Nice picture of life then. Some interesting touches outside home as they entertained some big time dignitaries like a stone table with a water center where food would be floated for dining guests to sserve themselves.4 stars because there were part of the gardends that looked very interesting but were locked off without explanation.

It is a beautiful place and a well-maintained site. I was so grateful that there was no entrance fee. If you want to tour the castle, you need a ticket. You can also buy simple drinks, snacks, and souvenirs.

Grey Towers National Historic Site is a remarkable historic site located in Milford, PA. Here you can both walk the grounds or take a tour of the mansion. It is easy to be impressed by the grandeur of the mansion and the surrounding gardens and scenery. Grey Towers was built in 1886 by James Pinchot, who was a philanthropist and businessman. As with many Gilded Age mansions the designer of this mansion was Richard Morris Hunt. After James died in 1908, his son Gifford who was head of the US Forest Service and then a governor of Pennsylvania lived here. Most of the sites and exhibits on the grounds and in the mansion are dedicated to Gifford’s efforts as a leading conservationist of his time. Tours of the mansion are self guided and the docents inside can answer all of your questions. Inside you will see the opulence of the Gilded Age reflected in each room. Some of the best rooms in the house are the ballroom and library. On the mansion tour you will only see the bottom floors. The top floors can be seen only when the house is decorated for the Christmas holiday. When walking outdoors there are many sites to see. Be sure to view the conical towers on the mansion when seeing it from the outside. The Finger Bowl, an outdoor dining area, is probably one of the most unique things outside. The Letterbox and the Bait Box are also unique. The Bait Box was originally a playhouse for Gifford Pinchot’s son, and is today used as a small amphitheater where a movie about Grey Towers is shown. The cemetery is an interesting piece of history located here as well. The estate also offers walking/hiking trails around the estate. Mansion tours are done only a few days each week from May-October. To get a mansion tour you will have to purchase a ticket at the gift shop or “Letter Box” near the mansion. You will have to check the website for hours and when tours of the mansion are available. Grey Towers is a unique place to learn about the history of conservation and see a remarkable Gilded Age estate.

Short walk to the falls from the upper parking lot. Beautiful, lush forested area. I love the sound of rushing water the closer you get to the Falls. Beautiful. My only caution is there can be a lot of raised rocks, roots and other vegetation along the trail that can be dangerous for Senior Citizens. Use the railings and watch your step.

A nice view. A small hike for those interested. There are two observation platforms. One up top and one below. There are two ways to get to the lower platform. A hike down from the top or a straight path from the additional parking area.

What an incredible hidden gem! Raymondskill Falls is the tallest waterfall in Pennsylvania, and it’s absolutely worth the visit. The trail is short and easy, making it perfect for families or anyone looking for a quick nature escape. The views from the upper and lower platforms are stunning—you can hear the power of the falls as you get closer. It’s peaceful, refreshing, and a perfect spot to relax, take photos, or just enjoy nature. Highly recommend visiting if you’re in the area or planning a weekend getaway in Pennsylvania. Don’t forget your camera and comfortable shoes!

Fantastic trails and waterfalls! Easy walk up or down. Plenty of parking. Tons of different birds. No fish though. Great for photography! Safe area with clean restrooms. 10 out of 10! Totally recommended! Just beware of possible bears. I encountered none during my visit.

One of the most beautiful waterfalls I've ever seen! Raymondskill Falls is located at the north portion of the Delaware Water Gap! The hike to see the falls is very short and easy. I highly recommend anyone visiting the Delaware Water Gap to check out Raymondskill Falls!

The largest falls in PA i am told. It was really beautiful and worth the visit. I was surprised it was flowing so fast in September!

Raymondskill Falls is the tallest and one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Pennsylvania. The falls consist of three different tiers. The trail leading to the is only a third of a mile long and has two sets of viewing platforms to view the falls. The platforms offer ample room and are a safe way to view the falls. The trail leading to the falls is wide and easy to follow. Just be cautious with your footing here. The trail is a loop setup so you can get to both viewing platforms. The lower of the platforms offers a better view of the falls, in my opinion. There is a parking lot for about ten or more vehicles. There are other trails nearby as well. At the beginning of the trail there is a set of restrooms. It is easy to access a trail map online or you can just view the map board in the parking lot. Best of all this wonder of nature is free to see. So get out and enjoy it!

This has changed A LOT since I was a kid! It went from being a wonderful hike to a tourist trap. $22 entrance fee is WILD! I understood why once inside; all those stairs changing this from a hike to a boardwalk of stairs must be expensive! By creating a walkway like this, it's made this area into something that people feel is easily accessible for a non-hiker. I just wish I wasn't expecting to hike.... What a bummer. AND you can't even get close to the waterfalls like you once had access to! You used to be able to get right to the water's edge. Not anymore.... If you are looking for an over-crowded, family in the way of your photos, easy-ish hike. This is for you. If you want to be in nature and HIKE, this isn't the place for you.

But your tickets in advance. Take pictures of your confirmation before arriving. There’s almost no cell service there. The site is amazing. The waterfalls are beautiful. The biggest one is up front. The walkways are well maintained. Wear very comfortable shoes. Be prepared to walk on gravel, grades and stairs. It’s worth it. We did the Red trail. 2-2.5 miles. Posted for hikers only. If you don’t hike, carefully consider if you can do this trail. We suggest doing it counter clockwise. It starts off more strenuous and the last half is easy.

A beautiful walk amongst the hills viewing the many waterfalls. Scenery was beautiful The walk was a little strenuous at times but well worth it for the hour and a half it took us.

This is one of the privately owned area with Plenty of parking. The price of $22 expensive to enter for only a few falls. When we visited during October the water streams had close to no flow water level, which was disappointing. Takes about 2 hours to walk and some step sections are long to go up and down. Half of the trail is near falls and the other half goes through the gorgeous woods. One can avoid the trail and just come spend some casual time with family in the nature.

What a gem of a park!!! Beautiful views of countless waterfalls. You can day walk or hike hard either way you won't be disappointed. Friendly staff. Nice gift shop and vlean bathrooms. A must see for the entire family.

A very beautiful place, often called the “Niagara of Pennsylvania.” Bushkill Falls is impressive: several waterfalls, clean trails, viewing platforms, and wooden bridges. We chose the Yellow Trail — it was easy and very scenic. Tickets were $22 per person at the entrance. Keep in mind there are stairs and climbs, so wear comfortable shoes and be ready for a bit of exercise. Overall, it’s a great spot for a family walk and photos. Definitely worth visiting at least once!

Came here for a hike on our honeymoon. The trails were amazing, the waterfalls were so cool to see up close. Definitely recommend to any outdoorsy person! Plus as an added bonus the shops are super cute and have something for everyone. And an added bonus the pressed penny machines were a great vacation throwback.

Absolutely beautiful driving through the Gap and checking out the trails!

Should be called "no-toll booth", at least for now. Love passing into the serenity.

BEAUTIFUL

Great sanctuary. Pre purchase of tickets are necessary. There’s a Short half mile hike uphill or you can take a shuttle. Docent leading tour was very knowledgeable and gave an excellent talk on the wolves living in the sanctuary. They also have lynxes and bobcats in another section

If you have a real or inner child who has a special affinity with wolves, foxes, or big cats, this is a worthy destination and dedication of an entire morning or afternoon to experience. The tour is such a high value I felt compelled to donate as well just to feel less guilty about walking away with such a bargain. Not that the whole tour is a sales pitch - far from it! I loved how they focused on telling stories about the animals. It was a wonderful escape from the everyday world into a special corner of the world where wolves and other wildlife are treasured just as they are.

Incredible experience, worth every penny. Wolves are front and center and very active easy to see. We’re even vocal, growling and howling as the played with each other. Highly recommend visiting and supporting this preserve.

It was more of a cry for help tour, every reason why they don’t make money for their wrong decisions and how government is screwing them for money, wolves were nice. Jim the guide was ok, I won’t go there again because we did nothing didn’t interact with animals whatsoever. Lady kept going on and on about bobcat and lynx she copied whatever she read in books. Lynx left halfway in the tour and so did we. All in all wasted $75 and much more time. Mehhhh

The couple who run the preserve are absolutely amazing. They've rescued every animal, fed them, given them medical treatment and a longer lifespan then most wolves in the wild. They've dedicated their lives to these animals, kudos!

Wonderful preserve. Learned lots about the wolves, and they even have a bobcat and fox. Hard to take photos through a double fence though, you need to sign up for a special tour in order to have access to get better shots. I took some photos, then photoshopped out the fence and created a landscape using AI to make the photo look good.

Awesome experience! The wolves, Bob cats and foxes are beautiful! I love what they're doing for them to keep them safe from humans.

First time coming here, drove from Long Island! Well, it was nice. Just a regular market, I love the support of small businesses and definitely did my shopping. Coming from New York? Prices were reasonable (except the glass blowing items). My experience: was crowded and very narrow ways. Not many were wearing masks, it was an "indoor" tent, so enforcing mask mandate was not so great (vendors weren't wearing them). Entering the food court area was alright, not that much variety as advertised. It was usually the same food on every spot. I was looking for more German stuff, but the closest German thing was the mulled wine. (Ask for extra rum) After that, I sort of wonder why we paid to get into basically a mini mall. Either way, this is more of a one time thing, no reason to come again every year.

This was such a good place to go with kids and adults! The food, wine and beer were all good. There was glassblowing and ice sculptures!

So cool. You can walk next to the old steel factory on a ramp. Came during a food and music fair that I had no idea was going on at the time. Supposed to cool during Christmas so I’ll come again during the holidays. Enjoyed foot and music. And just one drink. I was too sleepy for more.

This is a very interesting place!! We love how they took something old, and not being used anymore, and made a venue!! We would love to see more places like this, rather than being torn down!! Preserve the history and let others be amazed by it!! My husband worked in a much smaller steel mill for 42 years and his dad worked at Bethlehem steel in Texas!! Very interesting!!

I traveled through this city and I definitely made the right choice visiting this place. There’s plenty of parking, and the site is truly grand and impressive. You can really feel the historical greatness of the city’s steel industry here. The view from the top is absolutely beautiful. It’s a perfect spot for taking photos, and best of all — there’s no admission fee.

I'm not a huge fan of the industrial era, but this is a fascinating piece of history and interesting landmark. It's too bad that the native Americans that own it won't give it at least a spray coating to protect it, but I can understand their viewpoint. If you get the chance, I recommend one of the walking tours, where if you are lucky, you will have it led by one of the guys that used to work there.

Truly an iconic place to visit! The walkway and staircase is so beautiful. Amazing garden with curated plants. The juxtaposition of nature and industrial is stunning. The bethlehem steel is one of my favorite things about bethlehem!

This was along the outside walk, where we climbed the stairs and viewed the aging steel works. Very interesting to see it at night - both surreal and quiet with the light casting shadows. The scope and size of the structures is impressive. Information placards and tidbits add to the sights I'd suggest stopping by to see this to anyone in the area

Such an otherworldly feeling to the old steel works. Nice way to spend an hour or so walking around these huge hulking industrial edifices. Then it’s a 5 minute drive into Bethlehem itself for drinks, food and shopping. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ …………………………………………………………………………………………

Not a great casino. Was there about 20 years ago and went again in 2025. Need players card to order drinks. Must play $5 to order and can only have one drink every 30 minutes. At least 40 slots broken. Casino is half smoking as well.

Came to this casino for the first time. At the entrance the security was very rude & disrespectful. 0 starts deserved earned at an entertainment service business before even entering the casino.

What a night with lots of luck and fun

The table suddenly became very busy, and the dealer kept blowing cards, but they changed 4 dealers within 10 minutes. The staff called a few people to look at it, and said it was very strange, as if we were cheating. , they said they were going to close this desk and they were going to get off work. No way, the rules of the game are theirs. The next day, I went to the same table and kept losing. The dealer kept getting 20 and 21 points. I asked the staff when the table would be closed today. The dealer told me that in addition to changing the cards, the table would be replaced with new cards. , will not be closed. Yes, shameless behavior can only make you lose, not win. When you are lucky, they keep changing people to deal cards, or close the table directly. There is no justice at all... don't go gambling in this place, their behavior is so bad

Bush league services and amenities. Unhealthy conditions and clown shoes service. It is clear there has been a recent management change for the worse. Our stay started with the front desk being unable to locate our reservation. Despite it being made months ahead of time. Next my coworker discovered that our shower would not drain. When maintenance arrived they pulled 3 hair extensions worth of hair out of the drain. They have done away with complimentary breakfast (which my coworker would not stop complaining about for our week long stay), the attached restaurants are over priced. One night I ordered medium steak, at "market price", and received a brunt piece of charcoal that was no where near worth what I had paid for the meal. Next security saw fit to give my company vehicle a "parking warning" threatening to boot or tow it. With no explanation for the warning. The vehicle was legally and parked in a valid area. No signage, no markings, no attempt to contact me. When I contacted them, they admitted that the warning should not have been issued. It never occurred to them that the vehicle was parked for more than 24 hours, because the guests were staying for longer than 24 hours. All these above mentioned things are annoying but what is unforgivable is my coworker and I both observed the house keeping staff clean our room one day. The house keeper took the reusable glasses and coffee mugs, washed them in the room's sink without soap, and replaced them. There were no new glasses or mugs on her cart, so this must be a standard thing for this staff. Dog feces located everywhere in the landscaping and parking lot. The room does not have a microwave and the refrigerator barely cools drinks at the max setting. The computers in the "business center" in the lobby are running illegitimate copies of Windows, the styling of the rooms and public areas are clearly cheap and tacky. The free wifi is open, public, and not in the least bit secure. It is clear the powers that be are cutting corners where ever possible. In short, anyone staying here should not expect the most basic level of customer service and expectations to be met. For the cost of the room alone, I would expect NONE of these issues, let alone one of them to be experienced during a week long stay. The only people that have any idea of what they are doing is the polite and professional maintenance staff. But that is not enough for me to reserve a room here next time.

Reserved a room for Friday Night May 11. Arrived to check-in only to be rudely informed By an employee at registration desk that despite having an itinerary Number with a Confirmation Number confirming our reservation, They were over booked and they had no rooms available. After 15 minutes of waiting the hotel manager (I guess as she never Identified herself) rudely offered to shuttle us to another hotel off site. I recommend not wasting your time visiting the Sand Casino. Your better off visiting another resort.

Wasn't allowed to bring my 20yr old son through the casino to eat at Emeril's Burgers and More. Don't know why security couldn't escort us to the restaurant. Last thing we wanted to do was waste money on the slots. All we wanted was a bite to eat. Security said the only option was the food court. Definitely not worth it.

This is a gorgeous and challenging course (the tee boxes and cart paths need work, especially considering the greens fees). However, pace of play and tee times are definitely an issue. I cannot, and will not, blame the course staff for the frost delay; the weather is out of their control. I was told there was an approximate delay of 30-40 minutes, which is no problem, but we were sent out only 10 minutes after our scheduled tee time and spent the next 18 holes backed up with at least two groups on each tee. Poor starter management led to backups on hole one before I even teed off: (par 5) one group on the green, two groups in the fairway, us waiting on the tee, and two groups waiting behind us on the tee. After two hours we had only managed to play 6 holes. We watched two groups behind us leave the course early, having only played 13 holes after 4 hours and 15 minutes. There were unfortunately no rangers to clear the backup. Too many groups were playing from too far back. This kept pace of play at a crawl. It would be more fun for beginners and advanced players alike when golfers play from the appropriate tees. Given the difficulty of the course (and the price point), it would be nice to see some handicap enforcement for tee choice. It would also be nice to see rangers actively monitoring pace of play.

Sending out a big THANK YOU to the staff. I came there for the ECB Foundation fundraiser and ended up with a flat tire when I parked (my fault!). Two of the staff members saw it happen and immediately came over and changed the tire for me. They were so kind and I really appreciated the help :)

Massive golf club with multiple courses on location. Driving range is pretty nice. Clubhouse is great as well. Staff were courteous and friendly. Pretty tough course and layout. Very beautiful views. Def play here again.

Played the Crystal springs golf course and it wasn’t too great an experience especially for the high price we paid. After a round of golf, some food and serval stops by the cart girl we ended up paying much more than expected. $40 for a round of beer and $15 hot dogs are a bit over the top. Not the courses fault but there was over an hour frost delay but then they pushed people out one foursome one group after another with basically no time between foursomes. Our round was just under 6 hours. Adding to the overly crowded course was all the leaves, making finding balls difficult, even in the fairway. On the positive side the greens were nice and consistent.

I had 18 holes of golf scheduled for 09/20. We teed off at 245PM. 4 hours and 30 minutes later we had only finished 14 holes. We learned the course allowed groups of 6 to play which definitely impacted our pace of play. For a highly rated course, the lack of oversight in party size is concerning.

For what a round costs here - go elsewhere. Groups are always backed up so no matter how fast you play, someone is always on your ass. Sure it’s a challenging course, but for the wrong reasons - lots of slopes and uneven elevations. Doesn’t make it the exciting kind of challenging. Also absolutely criminal to charge $15 for a hotdog…are you kidding me?

The Crystal Springs course was phenomenal. Chuck took great care of us on the course and provided great tips on how to play it. Highly recommend

This water park was amazing! There’s something to do for all ages, and I would definitely recommend it. I’ll absolutely be returning because I had such a great time with my boyfriend. The only con is that if you don’t know the park is on mountainous terrain, you might not be prepared for the walking. Wear comfortable shoes — luckily, I wore slippers that were sort of comfy, but sneakers would’ve been better. Bring plenty of water and a reusable bottle because you’ll be walking a lot, and after each ride you’ll definitely need it. Consider this your heads-up! The food wasn’t good — I had fries with a chicken sandwich and ended up with some stomach burn. It’s also overpriced, so I’d recommend bringing your own food and water if you can. That said, I didn’t come here for the food, so I’m not lowering my rating because of it. Overall, the park is very affordable (we paid around $60 for general admission) , free parking and the service from the staff was great. This place is definitely worth visiting — you’ll have an amazing time!

Here’s my personal experience: I visited the park on a Saturday (July). Overall, it’s a good park with plenty of slide options, but some of the rides are starting to show signs of wear and could use maintenance. If you go on a weekend, be prepared for long lines—expect wait times of 1 to 2 hours for most rides. I recommend getting there right when the park opens at 10 AM and heading straight to the Colorado River ride, one of the best ride in the park. We made the mistake of leaving it for later and ended up waiting two hours in line for a ride that lasted only 1 minute and 30 seconds. If you're planning to try the Alpine Mountain Coaster, do that early too. The lines there can get out of control, with wait times of up to two hours for a 3-minute ride. The food court is pretty good—the food is decent quality, though a bit pricey. The bathrooms, however, are in poor condition and really need maintenance. I recommend using the restroom before arriving, as the park’s facilities might pose a health risk if you're not careful. In short, I don’t recommend visiting on weekends due to the long wait times. Weekdays are likely a better choice with fewer crowds and shorter lines. PS. IIf you see a long line at Alpine Rush, skip it. It’s not worth the 1 hour and 20-minute wait for a ride that lasts only 30 seconds. You’re better off going on the Thunder Ride—much more enjoyable for your time.

Mountain Creek Water Park delivers a thrilling summer escape with a diverse array of slides and attractions that cater to all ages. Known for its unique mountain setting, the park boasts exhilarating rides like the Colorado River and Canyon Cliff Jump, offering an adrenaline rush for thrill-seekers. While the uphill walks between attractions can be challenging, the natural beauty of the surroundings, with waterfalls and lush paths, creates a distinct and enjoyable atmosphere. The park thoughtfully provides options for younger guests, including a wave pool, sprayground, and lazy river, ensuring family-friendly fun. Despite its history as the infamous Action Park, Mountain Creek Water Park has undergone significant overhauls, prioritizing safety while still delivering an exciting and memorable experience.

The most important thing to know: this place is absolutely not kid-friendly. This is not my first water park, so I have something to compare it to. It’s also not my first time visiting this exact location — I’ve been here before for different events, but never for the water park itself. And honestly, I’m shocked. The kids’ area is incredibly small — only three zones, one of which is split by a walkway leading to the main slides. The water is both freezing cold and dirty. I’m not talking about leaves falling from trees; I’m talking about the water itself. The “Lazy River” was overcrowded with people and kids of all ages. On the opposite side, there are two slides with very dirty water as well. There’s also a shallow “toddler” pool with warmer water, but considering how many tickets they sell (and that many guests are bound to come with young kids), this small space turns into a swamp. There’s also nowhere to sit. Lounge chairs are scattered in random spots, mostly “reserved” with piles of towels while their owners are nowhere in sight. People were lying on the ground on their own towels under bushes and in corners, making the place look messy and unpleasant. The park layout is inconvenient — long walks from the parking lot and between different attractions. The entrance line wasn’t huge, but the staff moved slowly, and someone even fainted from the heat while waiting. If you have small kids, you might think to bring a stroller — but it’s a double-edged sword: it’s helpful for the uphill walk (which takes about 20 minutes), but once inside, there’s nowhere to leave it. Lockers are another issue. Renting one is almost a necessity because there’s nowhere safe to leave your bag, but you’ll waste another 30–40 minutes in line just to get one. Prices are high: small lockers are $20, medium $30, large $50 — on top of the $59 ticket (without any discounts). Now, about rides for older kids and teens — my teenager usually loves water parks, but not this time. The lines were insane. The simplest slide took us 30 minutes of waiting. The park itself is smaller than it appears on the map, so everyone crowds together near the water, making it feel even more packed. And I have to mention the bathrooms — absolutely disgusting, worse than a public park restroom. I have never seen such poor maintenance at any water park, indoor or outdoor. I wanted to give two stars, but honestly, I can’t think of a single positive thing. If you’re in your 20s, maybe you’ll enjoy it. But if you’re in your 30s with kids — from the bottom of my heart, skip this place as a water park.

The park is pretty nice, but it can be a long trip to the restroom and staff shortages leave that all the areas to buy sun screen and water shoes were not open, they are also a little ridiculously priced. Alpine coaster line was long, but everything else has fairly short lines. There is a bar with good drinks, of course a little expensive. Overall cool vibe, we liked it.

The water park was a lot of fun! The rides were exciting and definitely worth the visit. The pricing for entry was fair, which made it even better. The only downside was the food — not very tasty and overpriced. Overall, a great place for fun, but I’d recommend grabbing a bite before or after your visit.

First time I’ve been to Mountain Creek/action Park in 40 years for the waterpark. I’m proud to say I did all the Rides slides. Glad they were tuned down from the psychotic 80s. Still a lot of fun and still have plenty of bruises that are well deserved. Park was really clean. Plenty of lifeguards would’ve liked to seen less lifeguards and maybe more security. I’ll be back next season.

I want to express my heartfelt thanks to the Mountain Creek chairlift team. On September 13, while photographing a wedding, I accidentally left my camera at the top of the mountain. The lift was scheduled to close at 6:00 PM, but the staff kindly stayed with me and waited until the last team member at the summit located my camera and brought it down. I’m deeply grateful for their patience, professionalism, and kindness. Thank you so much!

I’m really disappointed with Mountain Creek’s lift ride operation. They closed the line 30 minutes before the posted closing time, saying the line was already too long — yet they were still selling tickets just minutes before closing the line! That’s completely unfair and misleading. It feels like they just care about making sales, not about giving guests the experience they paid for. The staff didn’t communicate properly, didn’t apologize, and didn’t offer any options for people who bought tickets but couldn’t even line up. If they know the line gets long, they should stop selling tickets earlier or use time slots to manage the crowd properly — not punish guests who show up on time. It's not our problem that everyone wants to ride during sunset. That should be a management problem!! This was very disappointing and showed how poor the customer service and organization really are. Never again! Waste of money!

We went to Mountain Creek for the fall fest. The event was packed the weather was perfect and the ride up the lift was great. It was cool watching the mountain biking on the trail from the lift. The only issue i had was the food and drink situation. They did the best they could, but clearly not prepared for the mass of people that came. Luckily the burger was delicious and saved the afternoon. Overall happy, good atmosphere, food, games, music and friendly staff.

Great bike park! Employees were pleasant and helpful. Prices were reasonable. The lift took a couple tries to perfect loading the bikes but after that it was easy. We visited during Octoberfest and it was good and bad. Very busy, but lots of entertainment and food options. The trails ranged from mild to wild. I liked that there were technical trails as well as flow. The trails were a little washed out but not too bad considering it was the end of the season. Overall it was a great experience and we plan on returning!

Came here November 2nd for the 3rd annual fall fest weekend. I got the sky ride ticket for $16.78. I really wanted to try the adventure package but it was already sold out by the time I got ready to purchase. In my honest opinion the Fall Fest is NOT WORTH IT! Especially if it would be quite a drive for you. The drive for me was about 1 hour and 30 minutes and I don’t think the experience was worth the drive. I honestly feel like the IG reels and TikTok videos I’ve seen of the Fall fest overhyped it and made it look better than it really was. In my opinion it was hectic because there were bikers all over the place which is fair because the fall fest and the bike trail is a shared space. I think they should have called this BIKER FEST you literally have to watch out because the bikers just zoom by. I did get to go on the sky ride which was nice and the scenery was beautiful. But, was it worth coming to the fall fest and purchasing a ticket just to do that…… NO. If you are looking for a Fall experience/farm experience in Vernon, NJ I recommend Heaven Hill Farm which is literally 9 minutes from mountain creek. Now that gave me the vibe I was looking for. I didn’t get to explore it fully because it was close to closing time but I did check out their Farmers Market and their cider donuts were tasty. Anyways, maybe I will be back to mountain creek but probably not for their Fall Fest. I will say that the staff at mountain creek were friendly, I got some cool photos, and I got to spend time with family and friends so that is a plus.

Here already for fall fest and its overly crowded. No one working so it’s unclear if parking is paid/unpaid. Food vendor area is disorganized. Not clear what each line is for (1 for ordering, 1 for pickup, but no rhyme or rhtym to tell you when your order is ready). Took an hour to get our food alone. Do not waste your money on this. Did not go on gondola or coaster due to long lines (1 hour at least). Not a good experience and am requesting a refund. If I’m driving 2 hours from NYC for foliage, better to go upstate to the Catskills than this overhyped crapshow Also, while we were prepared for bugs and nature, we did not anticipate the insane amount of yellow jackets near the food area Update 24 hours after emailing them (and before they responded below): Got a general message they’re looking into it. To be clear, this was one of the worst travel experiences I’ve ever had. We did not even have enough time to redeem the tickets we bought due to the long lines. Sadly, I do not have confidence they’ll make it right and strongly feel this place is a cash grab. We do not plan to ever come back and encourage others to avoid. Go over to warwick, ny and go apple picking, or just go up to The Catskills Update 3 days later: After a bit of pushing via email, we got a long empathetic apology from the owner who refunded us. His leadership was greatly appreciated, and hopefully the resort takes the right steps to fix this. Owner invited us back and offered some perks upon our return, but we likely will not come back given the lines issue seems to be an ongoing issue. We hope the resort will improve over time.

For boarding- if you get the lowest access pass. You have to walk a long distance with your gear. But worth the day pass and season as you get to ride on two mountains. Go on T,W,Thursday to skip crowd. The location is good had Taco Bell and local bean cafe if you want to skip out on $20 food in the lodge

The boulder field was fun to climb around on and bang on them. Not all boulders ring, but the ones that do have different pitches and tones. Was neat to hear how different they sound from one another. The hike to the waterfall was short and pretty easy. The waterfall was beautiful. Felt great going under it and letting the cold water wash over you.

Beautiful park to explore. Kids have a great time hitting the large rocks to hear them ring. There is a waterfall near the rocks however it has been dry the past few times we visited over the course of a few years.

C'mon it's a cool place. Bring a hammer and have some fun. Maneuvering on the boulders can be tricky, so wear good sneakers or hiking boots. The loop trail is rocky and short. I would suggest making your way down to the creek bed and then work your way to the falls...which may not exist certain times of the year. You would then need to climb a few rocks to get back up to the trail. The creek bed at the top of the falls is interesting to see. It's slippery so be careful. We hiked up from the lot on 32 to gain some incline.

We loved this place, they have sequoias all around, which made the place feel even more peaceful. There is no Wi-Fi but they do have cable which my husband was happy to get. Cell phone service was limited and or sporadic. If you want to detach and be in a beautiful place, we highly recommend you come.

My whole life of living in PA and I finally got to ringing rocks. Such a cool place to just relax and enjoy nature and with some really cool sounds. If you don't remember to bring a hammer, there was a box of them you could borrow by the map. Mind you, Please be careful when climbing over the bigger rocks. I almost lost my shoe.

This was so fun!! Pretty small park, good for an afternoon when you just wanna go see something fun and walk around a little but not do a massive hike. They have a box of hammers at the front of the park if you forget your own! Easy drive from Allentown

Very nice. Beautiful rocks. Bring a hammer and a good pair of climbing shoes 👟. If it is a sunny 🌞 day bring water as navigating the rocks is cumbersome and there is little shade if you try to reach the best ringing rocks.

Very nice experience. Good cigars and whiskey. Great people onboard. Cocktails weren’t the best but the food was delicious. Would definitely recommend! Can’t wait for the next event.

Always a great time with this Crew. Great food, great scenery and great staff. We always make sure to take a trip once or twice each summer

Employees were super nice. Food was excellent. Also happened to be a perfect weather. It was easy to book. Didn't have to carry paperwork with you. Everything was on their tablet.

Our lunch cruise far exceeded our expectations. Everything was exceptional and the weather was perfect, too. The cruise was relaxing with the just the right amount of commentary from Captain John. Background music was just the right volume to allow conversation. The staff was attentive and helpful. It was a very enjoyable two hour cruise. We highly recommend it and expect to do it again.

Always a good time. Wish they'd do a bit better with coordination when it comes to vegetarian or custom options for the food, but overall it's always a good experience.

If you're looking for a unique way to experience Lake Hopatcong, I highly recommend checking out Lake Hopatcong Cruises. The variety of their offerings ensures that there's something for everyone, and you're guaranteed to have a memorable time. Their events are a perfect blend of fun, relaxation, and picturesque views, making every cruise a must-do activity! The Cigar and Whiskey tasting event hosted by Lake Hopatcong Cruises, was nothing short of spectacular. The event was expertly organized, providing a refined selection of whiskies paired beautifully with high-quality cigars, making for an unforgettable evening on the water. The ambiance of Lake Hopatcong added a serene backdrop to the experience, making each sip and puff all the more enjoyable. But the Cigar and Whiskey tasting is just one of the many fantastic events that Lake Hopatcong Cruises offers throughout the season. Whether it's their lively dinner cruises, scenic brunch tours, or the festive holiday gatherings, each event is crafted with care and tailored to provide guests with an engaging and delightful experience. The staff’s attention to detail and commitment to guest satisfaction shines through in every interaction.

It was such a great cruise. We did the lunch cruise. Food was very good. The staff is so helpful and friendly. We sat on the upper deck. Views were amazing. We will definitely do this again

We had an enjoyable time during our first visit to the Sand Castle Winery. The building has a castle design and is spacious with indoor and outdoor seating. They have a good selection of wines and we chose the semi-sweet Riesling. It was still a bit sweet but our favorite choice among the other available wines. We also purchased the cheese and fruit plate which is a must-have! It was excellent and included four different cheeses, crackers, grapes and even a loaf cake. Overall a pleasant experience and we will certainly be back.

Extremely disrespectful to the community, very loud music and commotion until 2am. I can hear it all the way at my house about a half mile away. It's basically just a cash grab wedding venue. Lots of code violations, completely unpermitted and uninspected retrofit structures- I would never put my friends and family at risk by being anywhere near the terrible establishment.

We had a lovely visit! We stopped by for the tasting and got to try 12 wines. 🍷🥴 The host was a fountain of cooking tips, wine pairings, and historical information. Definitely a fun afternoon!

Our 1st time visiting Sand Castle Winery and not disappointed at all. When we drove up the drive and turned the corner, to see a sand castle in a vineyard, just brought a smile to my face. The castle is beautiful with stunning views. Very nice selection of wines. I had the dry riesling and my husband had the sangria. Both are very good. We came with friends and they LOVE the alpine spice! They had a nice fruit and cheese tray for purchase or you can bring snacks. Nice, comfortable seating areas or you can sit under the tent at table. Sand Castle has performers come and we saw The John DeRosa band. A shout out to John and Joey for an AMAZING performance. Check out the website for events. I can't say enough about our relaxing and beautiful evening. Looking forward to returning soon!

I cannot explain how amazing Sand Castle Winery was for our 10/02/2020 wedding! We originally planned our reception at a country club but due to COVID, we needed an outdoor venue. Within 2 months, Dean and the vendors (Farmer's Keep & Bucks Mont Party Rental) planned the most magical day of our lives. I couldn't recommend Sand Castle more to future couples!! The pictures are proof themselves of how romantic and serene the winery is. Perfect for a wedding!

Great way to kick off Valentine week. 13 delicious Pennsylvania wines plus a bonus port paired with meat, cheese, chocolate, hummus and pastries. Interesting explanation of flavors, aromas and general characteristics of a wine. And history of the vineyard.

I have been to the store that they had in Warrington before it closed but I wanted to visit the actual Winery so me and my girlfriend's took a day trip and we had an awesome time. Tyler is amazing with the descriptions of what you will taste in the wines and Dean is very knowledgeable of the winery grounds. With these two guys you will have a blast and the venue is beautiful.

We’ve been to a bunch of farms, but this one is hands down our favorite! I really don’t get why people complain about the prices. Yeah, it’s a little more expensive than some other places but totally worth it! You get what you pay for. We came to pick blueberries and ended up finding so much more: cherries, raspberries, currants, blueberries, and tons of other fruits and berries! The farm is huge and super clean. The staff was really kind and helpful, and there’s a lot to do for both kids and adults. The food was delicious, and we had such a great family day here. They even have stroller parking, which was a huge plus for us! Live music made the whole vibe even better, it was so chill and fun. We’ll definitely be back later in the summer for more fruit, and again in the fall for apple and pumpkin season. Such an awesome place!

Wonderful location. First time here and will definitely return. We had taken the tractor ride through the apple and peach orchards and had a wonderful time picking fruit right from the tree. Delicious apple cider donuts were served warm! Had fun petting the animals, especially the baby goats.

Came with my family and we all had a great time. Great over all farm experience. But It is pretty pricey and we ended up paying over $200 for a family of 3 that was for pick our own/entrance, food, and 1 sunflower. Also the price online is cheaper than in person and I wish I knew that ahead of time. We weren’t sure if we were going to go to the farm so I didn’t purchase online but I did check the night before, when I searched on line it was around $80 at checkout, but when I paid at the entrance in person it was $100. The line to get ice cream was very long and didn’t move very fast so we skipped that but it looked really good. overall our farm day was amazing, clean, easy to navigate and lots of things to pick. Would definitely visit again just more mindful and extra planning needed from my end to save a little next time. The horses on the front are the cutest.

Absolutely beautiful farm! Came here on a Saturday morning with my whole family and everyone had an amazing time. We started by getting our wristbands which came with either a pint for berries or a 1/4 peck bag for peaches and veggies. We mixed and matched to do a little of everything. We took a tractor ride to the fields and picked blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, peppers, egg plants, peaches and white peaches (much sweeter and delicious if you ask me than the regular peaches). We then grabbed lunch at the farm which was super convenient and fairly priced. We did the sunflower and wildflower picking (sunflowers were $2.50 per stem and the wildflowers were $0.50 per stem). We ended the day with their house made ice cream and doing some shopping (I grabbed some wildflower honey) and left with a bag of their fresh kettle corn. An amazing day with my family and will 100% be back to do pumpkin picking in the fall.

Really cool farm visit! The farm's layout made it very easy to follow and it had plenty of scenic views and nice walks. They also have an efficient hayride station system that took you to different parts of the farm—prepare to walk a lot though! The only reason I gave 4 stars is because of the price. I paid $82 for two people, which allowed for a ziplock freezer-sized bag of produce and/or 2 pumpkins. About 5-6 apples fit in the bag alone. Me and my guest had to put other produce such as cilantro, broccoli and peppers in our personal bags and still got charged for it upon exiting. Aside from this, the farm is an awesome experience and has a lot to offer such as live music, food vendors, a nice winery section, and a farm store full of treats and delicacies!

So I came here for a siblings field trip and I loved it. We picked some peaches and saw many animals and y’all had some good ones and I really like this farm since it’s not that big and not too small. 😊 I just think you guys should just make the parking space lines a little more visible because when we were parking we could barely see the lines but I’m not super mad. I just hope you can do something about this but in general I did love it.

One of the greatest farms i’ve ever been to! You don’t even have to pay to enter unless you are picking ur own fruits/veggies. On your way to park you pass by a field with goats and horses that you can feed before you leave (they are all so very friendly and well trained. Just big and hungry tho) They have a pig, chickens, roosters, a llama, and probably so much more honestly. The eating/dining/shopping area is so cute and child friendly, there are wooden love swings available to use aswell that are decorated with flowers. The staff in the shop are very kind/understanding too when it comes to allergens. The apple cider slushie was sweet in the best way, the maple creme dessert was good, came with a donut it was just a bit sweet for me but still good. Savory foods were pretty good, fries were hot/fresh. Good eats. Up the farm they have a truck that travels throughout and brings you to ur destination. Picking fruits/veggies depending on what you get the price can vary, We only did apples and in order to enter it was $68 for 2 people. To me it was worth it since they don’t pay per pound/weight like other farms do. There also is a maze + hay area for family to explore/take pictures at. The picking areas are clearly labeled if they are ready to be picked. Most of the apples were on the ground but overall it was pretty organized. Would definitely recommend and be willing to come back. Thank you for having this here!! Hidden gem.

Pretty awesome place. Went on the last day, and it was packed, if your in costume, I recommend preparing for a hike across the parking lot. Once inside though it feels like you walked through q portal, from mead to blacksmiths, leather workers, glass blowing hairbraiding, and whip artists. They have it all. Walked around from 12 to 6 and still don't feel like I saw everything. Lots of cool vendors and lots of Amazon scamers, and definitely pay attention to what you're buying and from who. There were a bunch of small businesses that were worth supporting. I had an amazing day with my boyfriend and definitely plan on coming back. A day well spent 💖 may your voyage be just as magical♡ if your thinking about going do it !

I'm an avid ren faire goer, and the NY faire is great. The bus from NYC is very convenient. Lots of wonderful performers, the joust is super fun, and of course a million cool vendors. Lots of games too, and not too pricey, we did knife throwing and archery both for under ten bucks. The food is good. Everything is a little pricey but that's to be expected at this kind of thing. It's best to get there early - the shows get CRAZY full in the afternoon. We arrived at noon and watched the joust, did games, and watched performances all with little to no line, no struggle finding seating, etc. Later on as we passed back through those areas the lines were super long and the performances were packed, so we were glad we did those things earlier in the day. They have porta potties all over but TBH, theyre pretty disgusting. There is one regular restroom, and the line gets long but its kept clean and IMO its worth it to just go use that one lol.

A magical place that transports you to the Renaissance era! 🎭 People in costumes, free interesting shows all day, delicious food, and great souvenirs at fair prices. Perfect for families to enjoy a whole day. ✨ Tip: wear comfy shoes and, if you can, go in costume—it makes it even more fun! Check their website, they have different activities every weekend!!! ✌️

Unique experience in upstate New York. People dress up and enjoy a medieval town. Lots of vendors, fair food and actors around the grounds. Would recommend the pub crawl. We did a vlog on YouTube leave the resort of our experience here Cheers. PS parking is a little bit of a pain as it’s like one road going in. (Pro tip- stay in left lane - it enters into the fair grounds too)

This was my first visit to a ren faire ever, and the NY fair seems like as good a place as any for a first timer. The location has a nice forest vibe despite being only an hour from NYC. The layout is easy to navigate, a mixture of paved paths, dirt trails and a few footbridge. Some of the performance areas are set into the treeline so there's some steep areas. It can be hard to get a seat down in front in flat areas for the popular shows. Hopefully there is an ADA program to assist when needed. There are some permanent bathrooms with plumbing both at the entrance and inside, and the rest of the grounds has portos in many convenient locations. So what does one do at the faire? Shopping, eating, taking in performances and demos. We especially enjoyed Tiny Girl Big Show and the whip talents of Aaron Bonk. I wasn't familiar with the Pass the Hat tip solicitations at the end of each performance, so if you are in a position to tip, bring some $5s $10s & $20s (yes they specifically ask for these amounts). The largest performances are jousting and human chess. The shopping areas were hit or miss for me. Some of the merchants have reasonable pricing or at least a range of price points to shop at. Others are extremely high end - our friends spent well over $1000 at one leather shop alone. Just mentioning this so it's not a surprise to anyone shopping with a smaller purse. I like to buy gifts at events like this and I shop in a price range of $10-40 per item. In this range, I found handmade candles, small metal sculptures and ceramic sculptures, perfume oils and interesting feathers. There was a mix of handmade and import items in the clothing stores in particular, and it could be hard to tell one from the other. My only disappointment in the fair was the FOOD. I was hoping for more old fashioned menus with foods of the times. The majority of menus were popular modern or ethnic foods like smoothies, chicken nuggets, fajitas, nachos, pierogi. There was a bakery near the entrance that had a beautiful selection of pastries. The classic turkey legs didn't appeal because frankly the meat looked too pink for my taste and I didn't want to risk sickness. I'd say the most compelling lack was vegan or gluten free items. If I'd brought my vegan friend, she would have had no food choices besides a lettuce salad, pickles and a blooming onion :/ Overall I had a wonderful day and really loved taking in everyone's fun dress-up and all the peaceful happy vibes. I would definitely return but I would hope to see improvement in the food court.

We stepped back in time today at the New York Renaissance Faire on its final day — and what a perfect day it was! The sun was shining, the energy was magical, and it truly felt like entering another world. From knights and jesters to fairies and royalty, the costumes were absolutely incredible — people went all out, and it showed. The performances were top-notch, with laughter, sword fights, joust and music around every corner. A perfect way to kick off the Halloween season with some old-world charm! Until next year, Huzzah!

Really enjoyed event. Got there from the NYC by coach bus, very comfortable and fast. You feel like you are in medieval village. People dressed up in old costumes, performances and outlets like that time as well. I do recommend to go there and have fun.

1. Walkability – A perfect spot for a peaceful, refreshing walk. I visit every year, and there’s always something new to admire—nature here never fails to surprise and inspire. 2. Photography – A dream for nature photographers! From vibrant flowers to curious animals—once, we even spotted a bear! Every corner offers something magical to capture. 3. Maintenance – Beautifully maintained. The gardens are clean, well-kept, and clearly cared for with love. 4. Parking – There is on-site parking, making it easy and convenient to visit. 5. Admission – Free entry, which makes it even more accessible for everyone to enjoy. 6. Hours – Open every day! Great flexibility for whenever you're ready to connect with nature. Overall: One of my favorite places to unwind, explore, and take in the beauty of the natural world. Whether you're walking, taking photos, or just soaking in the peace—this garden never disappoints. I’ll definitely keep coming back!

Beautiful Place to visit, To walk, hike or just enjoy the beautiful scenery all around. No fee or entering and zero parking fee. Everything here is free. Enjoy walking down the paths already set out. Or enjoy the trails in the woods or in the flower fields. So much to see and explore. From the Japanese garden to the beautiful botanical garden.. Some trails go deep in the woods where you will find many ponds / streams for frog watching and lizards. They have so much Koi fish that are full grown - from baby Koi and so many tadpoles. It was so stunning to see the lily pads in the pond and seeing the beautiful flowers illuminating from the garden of lily pads. The Botanical Garden is Absolutely stunning and beautiful in so many ways.. Much to visit. Bring you own food . Grab a blanket and enjoy a nice relaxing picnic with your loved ones. Or solo.. I love sitting by nature and enjoying my own company. Most times when I sit I get great clarity and I see things from another perspective.. —-Sometimes we need to stop our busy lives, sit down, relax and just be. Our inner souls need to pause. For me it’s worth the time and effort to be at one with self. Have a beautiful Day!! Remember to take time for your self . Read a great book. Look at nature. Enjoy each and every moment you have here on earth!! Life is too short. So enjoy each and every moment you can!!

My husband and I, along with our fur baby, visited the New Jersey Botanical Garden in Ringwood last Sunday to explore the state park and it did not disappoint! The scenery was beautiful, especially with the fall season beginning and the trees showing their vibrant colors. We spent almost 4 hours walking around, enjoying every bit of nature, and taking breaks in between to relax. We’ll definitely be coming back since we didn’t get to explore the other side of the garden yet, and we also plan to visit the nearby Shepherd Lake Recreation Area next time. It’s absolutely worth the 40-minute drive from our place!

It was a nice afternoon but late Aug is not optimal time to visit. Many flowers were no longer in bloom and will need to return in the Spring.

Wonderful place to walk around, grounds are so well cared for and maintained. Gardens are gorgeous. Plus is that you can bring your dog here.

Such an amazing and beautiful place. The entire grounds are manicured with beautiful landscape, exotic plans, and gorgeous trees.

I have visited this garden often over the years. It is a beautiful somewhat hidden place. It is an estate of an old mansion. It is a great place to wander around and take pictures.

Great food, great service but if you're looking for a quieter atmosphere, this is not the place. Don't get me wrong, the ambiance is great if you're looking for the bar scene. If you're looking to enjoy your meal without people standing around you then this is not your place. The food was amazing and the drinks were to die for! Kudos to the chef, our waiter and the bartender.

The Washington Room is always the best experience. The staff were amazing and made it feel very welcoming from the moment we sat down to the moment we left. The food was extremely delicious and the whole experience is why we've been coming back to celebrate our anniversary for the past 4 years and probably many more years to come. Pro tip: always get the octopus

Jockey Hollow Bar & Kitchen is a must try. The interior and exterior architecture is beautiful. We sat at the Vail Bar for Happy Hour for 1/2 price glasses of wine and draft beer. The wine selection is excellent and the beer choices adequate. The $2 oysters were super fresh. The hummus with Calabrian peppers and double smash burger w/fries were delicious. The service was impeccable thanks to our bartenders Taylor and Gabriel.

I wish I had something bad to say about this place but honestly everything was incredible from start to finish! From the old world decor to the amazing martinis to the downright delicious cheddar biscuits. This is my new favorite haunt! And do yourself a favor & get a drink at the bar a nice burger and explore !

Disappointing experience second time as well. We reserved to celebrate my husband’s birthday. The food and service has become mediocre sadly. All server staff needs lots of training. We requested to clean our table as something was spilled after the appetizer round and the lady ignored nodded and walked away. Then again asked the server and he decided to clean. The server were new not experienced to serve at a fine dinning restaurant more better suited if they work around at a taco joint. I ordered a whole branzino fish - which was served head taken off, medium to small whole fish by itself on top of two soggy egg plant slices full of seeds. They don’t go well - soggy eggplant with fish. No other sides at all - the sever didn’t suggest that we should order a side of anything as the fish literally comes by it self with some sauce and topped with little green on it, you are eating oily grilled fish without any spice by itself - where is the chef’s creativity!? Why didn’t the server mention to order sides that can go with it. My son ordered a pasta - you see the picture below pasta was watery!! With pieces of octopus floating in the pasta. How can you make and serve watery sauce pasta with more white beans and less pasta - truly unimpressed. Apparently, the chicken was made good no complains other than the sever making a fuss about replacing broccoli raab with quinoa, a simple small request by guests spending over $500 in food and wine was accommodated after a long discussion, thankfully. (This was mentioned in the allergy section by us saying no pork no broccoli raab) Appetizers were excellent. Try the salads, octopus and oysters all three were excellent!! Dessert cheesecake and chocolate cake were okay as they should be. Nothing special.

Our server, Ryan, was great! He went out of his way to tell us the specials and show us what they look like before we ordered. He was very attentive and answered all our questions.

We came for Valentine's Dinner. We waited 30 minutes to be asked what we wanted to drink, another 30 for our appetizers, and another 30 for our entrees. Our waiter was uninformed about the menu, barely said a word to us, and never once asked us if we wanted another drink or how everything was. Twice the waiters tried to bring us dessert when we hadn't received our main course yet. We were never asked if we wanted coffee or another beverage with or after dessert. The food was absolutely delicious, but we ordered the $38 duck supplement for two, which was mislabeled as a supplement when it was a replacement for the entrees, which the waiter was unaware of. We paid $38 extra to replace our entrees with one that was not nearly large enough for two people. It was, however, delicious. Whenever we've come in the past, we have always had a great time. It is an absolute travesty that on a special night like valentine's night, everything fell apart. We paid nearly $150 per head after "supplements" and cocktails, and I would be disappointed at the experience for 1/3rd that price. I would never come back for a special occasion, which is a shame because of how much we love the restaurant on a normal night out. The only reason I'm giving an overall three stars instead of two is because our previous experiences at the restaurant have been much better, and the food was quite good even if it took us forever to receive it and it wasn't quite what we were expecting based on the menu and our waiter's clear lack of awareness of what he was serving.

Holy smokes! This place is gorgeous. The gardens are so beautiful I wanted to stay all day. Many well groomed paths to walk on, water features, and an old mansion are some of the highlights. Would come back again!

Wonderful place in Morristown, it’s a hidden gem in the area. Many varieties of flowers and plants are there. Walking trails are also great. Good place for family gatherings. Many bees are around, so beware when you come with kids. Ample parking 🅿️ spaces available.

1. Walkability – A wonderful place for a peaceful walk. The trails and paths are well laid out and surrounded by beautiful trees and gardens. 2. Photography – If you love nature photography, this is a must-visit! So many picturesque spots with flowers, textures, and serene corners. 3. Maintenance – The arboretum is well-maintained, clean, and clearly cared for. The gardens are lovely and inviting. 4. Parking – There is parking available, which makes access very convenient. 5. Hours – My only issue was that I arrived around 9:00 AM (as listed on Google), but the main gate was closed. I had to leave and return around 10:00 AM when it was open. It would be helpful if the hours were clearer or updated online. Overall: A beautiful, calming space perfect for walks, photos, and a quiet moment with nature. I’ll definitely return!

The Frelinghuysen Arboretum is an absolute gem—a beautifully maintained oasis that feels like a living work of art. The grounds are impeccable, with thoughtfully laid-out paths leading to vibrant flower beds, perfectly pruned roses, and serene woodland corners. It blends elegance and natural beauty so well, from the stately historic mansion to the scenic lawns and winding trails. Whether you’re a gardener, photographer, or just looking for a peaceful escape, it’s truly exceptional. Highly recommended for anyone who loves beautiful, well-kept gardens.

My family and I had such a wonderful time at the Frelinghuysen Arboretum today! We tried the scavenger hunt and it was such a fun way to explore the park while also learning about the different plants and vegetation. It made the visit interactive for all of us, and we’re already looking forward to coming back and doing it on a monthly basis. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and so well maintained! It's the perfect place to stroll, relax, and enjoy nature. Next time, we’re planning to bring a picnic and spend even more time soaking it all in. Such a gem in our community!

Went here last year during summer morning and was amazing, there was a lot of birds chirping and squirrels. It was fun to see the little fairy houses built there. The area is really quiet and peaceful to go for a walk or just to sit on a bench and get lost in your thoughts. Recommended if you enjoy nature

It is so beautiful and peaceful. Very clean and maintenaid. There are so many areas to do a picnic, a family or friends gathering. Huge tent great for weddings. A must to take special pictures. Highly recommend.

This is an awesome place and I never thought there would be a waterfall in the middle of the city. It has a long history and is a beautiful location where people of all ages can go and enjoy themselves. The waterfall is truly a hidden gem that offers a peaceful escape from urban life. The sound of cascading water creates a tranquil atmosphere that’s perfect for relaxation and reflection. Whether you’re looking for a quiet spot to unwind, a scenic location for photography, or simply want to experience a piece of natural beauty within the city limits, Peterson Waterfall delivers. The accessibility makes it suitable for visitors of all ages - from young families with children to seniors who want to enjoy nature without venturing far from the city. The walking paths are well-maintained, and there are several vantage points to view and appreciate the waterfall from different angles. I highly recommend visiting Peterson Waterfall to anyone looking for a unique urban nature experience. It’s a reminder that natural beauty can be found in the most unexpected places, right in our own backyard.

Beautiful and powerful waterfall! The Paterson Great Falls is truly a hidden gem with stunning views and rich history. The sound of the rushing water and the sight of the falls is breathtaking — a must-visit if you are in New Jersey. The overlook gives a great view, but we wished more areas were open to walk around during our visit. Parking could definitely be improved, as the facility is quite limited. Still, the natural beauty of the falls makes the trip worthwhile, and I’d love to come back again when more access is available.

What a great little park. Currently getting a lot of work done on it. Not much hiking due to bridge being out but you can see the falls from the overlook. Parking lot is small so I assume it fills up fast on a weekend. No cost to enter. Go around the other side for a different view. Some street parking on other side

This was my first time visiting this place and it was absolutely amazing. The only thing that made it a little tough was the construction going on, so be careful when walking. What made the visit even cooler was the Labor Day weekend festival, which was so eventful. It had music, vendors, food, and overall the experience was very fun.

A beautiful and powerful hidden gem! Paterson Great Falls National Historical Park is an incredible spot that combines natural beauty with rich history. The falls themselves are breathtaking, powerful, and dramatic. The sound and energy of the water are mesmerizing, and there are several great viewing spots where you can take in the scenery from different angles. The park is also steeped in history, playing a major role in America's early industrial development. There are informative signs and exhibits that tell the story of Alexander Hamilton’s vision for Paterson as the first planned industrial city in the U.S., which adds a fascinating educational layer to your visit. It’s a perfect place for a peaceful walk, photography, or simply to unwind and enjoy nature. The surrounding area has been improving steadily, and you can explore some nice nearby spots and local food afterward. Highly recommended if you're looking for a quick escape into nature and history right in New Jersey!

The falls were beautiful! The surrounding neighborhood isn’t the safest looking but the falls were very beautiful! The parking lot isn’t very big though so just a warning but the national park people were friendly and it was cool to read about the history of the falls on the pamphlet the parks service gave me.

Visited Paterson Great Falls for about 20-30 minutes before sunset, drawn by its historical significance but hesitant due to negative reviews and Paterson’s rough reputation. The falls are impressive—77 feet tall, powerful, and misty, with a nice view from Overlook Park. The roar of the water was a brief escape from the urban surroundings. However, the place could be better. Litter along the paths and a slightly off-putting smell near the water detracted from the experience. The city’s rundown vibe—crumbling buildings and a sketchy feel—doesn’t help, making it hard to fully enjoy the natural beauty. Parking was tricky, and the area felt like it needed more upkeep. Worth a quick stop for the falls, but don’t expect a pristine park. Visit during daylight, stick to main viewpoints, and manage expectations for the urban setting.

Excellent theater / concert hall! Our family has attended various concerts and performances in NJPAC, and it never disappoints. The venue offers a clear stage view, great acoustics, and comfortable seating, making every visit a consistently enjoyable experience. It’s also a great alternative to the overpriced halls in Manhattan. We're definitely looking forward to visiting again.

I love this place! The history, architecture, restaurant, people who weren’t there except one who was an idiot~ but I spoke to the manager about him. Hopefully, he got fired.~ or at least very reprimanded! I come here a lot, and I will continue … The surrounding clubs are amazing.

I was lucky to see the Stardew Valley Symphony of seasons here. The space is acoustically phenomenal, and the staff is superb. The merch table line ended up being huge, and the ushers quickly and calmly created order to the line amidst chaos. 10/10 would go to again

The New Jersey Performing Arts Center was such a beautiful spot to visit to see a show. I went there this past weekend for a comedy show and was very surprised with how clean and polished every thing looked. All staff I encountered were extremely friendly and accommodating. Literally everyone was so polite it kind of took me back! I would recommend to those who have not been to look online before you go in terms of parking or if you are looking to do a ride share.

Fantastic venue for concerts. Terrific accoustics, and wonderful viewing from every seat. Conveniently located, near the train station. Excellent parking facility directly across the street.

This place is terrific! I'm a bit mobility challenged at the moment but wanted to see Chicago. Anthony was the person that answered my email. We had a couple of phone calls and Anthony got us perfect accessible seats where no stairs were involved. The usher met us at the front door, waited during a quick "bio" break and got us to our seats

I love the New Jersey Performing Arts Center. I went to see Third Eye Blind in concert at the Prudential Hall on Friday June 20, 2025. Wonderful seating, not a bad seat in the house. Excellent acoustics. Great pre show refreshments lobby. Great staff. An excellent evening all the way around. It's close to Penn Station, Hilton Hotel and the Ironbound section of Newark where some great Spanish/Portuguese restaurants are located. I love Fornos of Spain on Ferry Street a couple of blocks up from the back entrance of Penn Station. Check out my review on that restaurant on Google Maps. I've been going there for many years.

For a smaller museum, it covers a broad range of history quite well! Never realized so many artists got their start in NJ! A few of the interactive audio tracks were a bit too soft or loud. Definitely worth a stop in if you're in the area and love music from Grammy winning artists!

It is a nice but small museum attached to the Prudential Center. The kids loved the hands on experiences with the instrumentals and the microphones. The displays are cool and seeing the history of music is always fun. You will not spend more than 45 minutes here. Parking can be a pain. Sunday’s are apparently are great day to go as street parking is free (check signs first to confirm and there is no event at the prudential) and there were only 2 other people in the museum.

I went there to see the Beatles Experience exhibit. It was ok but not great by any means. There were a few artifacts, like one of Paul's bass guitar, but overall, the exhibit was underwhelming. In over an hour, I was the only person there.

Very small but fun. I went by myself and spent around 50 min there. Maybe I would have spent more if I went with a friend since there were a lot of interactive activities. Not entirely sure this was worth the $10 bucks but this museum did manage to make me smile quite a few times, so overall if you have an hour to kill in the area it’s a decent place - but I wouldn’t go out of my way to come here.

Such a great exhibit especially if you're a Springsteen freak like myself. You get to see Bruce and the band from the beginning to the present. Other artists showcased in there as well. I was there mainly for Bruce‼️‼️❤❤❤💜🎵🎶🎼🥁🎷🎸

Great pop up museum with some interesting artifacts and lots of trivia. Best part was the interactive instrument displays. Entire room about Whitney Houston and lots about NJ musicians. Not very large. Takes about an hour at maximum.

Great experience, we enjoyed our stay. I hope that more artists contribute to personal items, but overall a nice experience.

Clean and beautiful park with nice pond and trees , perfect place to spend time with whole family peacefully with lots of activities surrounded there, such as hiking,playgrounds,tennis court ,picnic areas and more. Good idea to take wedding pictures or any photoshoots as well for free . We went to take pictures with those beautiful yellow flowers bushes 🌼🫶🏻✨ we visit often 🫶🏻

It’s a beautiful park. Highly recommend early morning hours. Very peaceful. Anyone can do the walk/hike, small children and elderly as well. Paths are paved and cleared. Takes about an hour from start entrance to the pond and back in a slow paced walk. Very peaceful

This is a really beautiful park. I forgot about those days when i was a kid there was so much to do at the park. I didnt fully get to explore the park 100% but i will say that just walking around was good enough for me, seeing all the animals enjoying themselves with humans around shows they do not care and do them. Basketball, tennis, bike riding, fishing, exercising etc it was really beautiful especially with a gorgeous sunset. Its really cool that there is a mall right across from it. Whenever I go to the mall I come here

Very Beautiful place. Lovely view and outstanding place for walking, tracking, playing and amusement.

Lovely park with something for everyone – kids, dogs, and adults! Perfect spot for parties and get-togethers. Washroom area is just okay, but the rest of the park makes up for it.

If you are on Roosevelt Island, I would definitely recommend a nice walk along the river to the end of the island to get some absolutely beautiful photos of the landscape. I wish I had more time to explore and relax in the park and watch the boats go by. It was a cold, snowy morning when I took a walk down to the park. It was absolutely breathtaking. There is so much to look at from all sides of the island. I would love to come back during the warmer months and take advantage of all the sitting areas and just take in all the beautiful views. There is an old hospital within the park with lots of interesting history, take a moment to read about it. It is very interesting and one of the reasons I wanted to explore this park. I love history and reading the stories and learning about the architecture of the buildings. It is pretty fascinating. I will definitely be back when I can spend more time exploring and relaxing while taking in all the gorgeous views.

Very nice place for walking around lake. Big spaces for party,barbecue,family picnics etc. playground for kids. Can spend time in nature. Basketball court, tennis court, ice skating.

The clock is a bit fast. I saw the two hands align about 2 minutes before noon. The view outwards towards the ocean is nice, but lacks any shading. There isn't anything beyond the area, so you'll need to make a U turn back

The Colgate Clock is one of Jersey City’s most iconic landmarks! Located right along the Hudson River Waterfront Walkway, it’s a beautiful spot to relax, take photos, or just enjoy the view of the Manhattan skyline

Gorgeous view of Manhattan. This is a must see if you’re in Jersey City.

This place is absolutely amazing! You can take a walk along the bay and witness the breathtaking beauty of New York City. The views are truly awe-inspiring, and it's a fantastic spot for a leisurely stroll. Highly recommended for anyone looking to escape the city and enjoy a peaceful walk with magnificent views.

Immaculate views! Just came here and sat with my roommate and honestly, our problems and worries seemed so trivial with this beautiful view in front of us!

Have seen it in pics and on Circle Line but finally had the chance to visit it personally. Great views, pics and glad to have visited it at last!

It's ok. It's a big clock facing the Hudson and NYC. There's a little seating area under the clock. The area is nice, pleasant, sound of the water, etc, but the clock itself is not something that I would include in my list of things to see. However, if you are going to the Hudson waterfront, this is a good place to start.
