Love this park. Trails are fairly easy so the whole family can enjoy (great for kids). Nature center has everything from your educational material to live turtles, blue jays...and chipmunks greeting you at the door. Friendly rangers. I visit at least twice a year and it’s so pleasant and peaceful. Try to arrive early before the crowd.

This park is beautiful. The walk through the wetlands and into the forest is so well preserved, and you will see osprey flying above throughout the park! Once the trees have bloomed, this is a nature lover's paradise. There are quite a few trails to pick from so you can definitely spend the entire day here and not be bored.

Great state park for a day.  Free access until Memorial day, then I believe it's $10 per car. 

The park is mostly wooded, but it is set next to a tidal marsh and some trails go along the edge.  There are several walking trails from about ¾ mile to 2½ miles.  The terrain is mostly through the woods over some very small hills and alongside the marsh. 

There is also a large pond with lifeguards and a sanded "beach". Plenty of paved parking spots, a snack bar, and real bathroom facilities (not port-a-potties).  There are more picnic tables, grills and bathrooms in a shaded area a hundred yards from the beach section.

The park does offer overnight camping sites for tents (I don't believe any RV's are permitted).  I haven't camped here so I can't tell you much more about the camp sites. However, the park is situated between the Garden State Parkway and a highway, so there is definitely road noise you'll hear.

It's hard to imagine such a nice little park is nestled into the hustle and bustle of that part of New Jersey. Lovely hiking trails, clean bathrooms, and when I was there a mostly empty campground. I imagine it picks up quite a bit during the summer months though. Highly recommended if you're looking for some time away.

This park has long trails Red, Blue, green, white and short trail yellow. Pet friendly trails. Camping ground available too. Lot of ppl came for camping. Good to see the crowd. Worth a visit.
