Nice County park, great for kids! The 'Discovery Play Trail' is perfect for families: a short trail with themed spots along the way for kids to learn & play. Playground is overall nice with a bigger area for older kids and smaller area for little ones. A few maintenance fixes needed on the playgrounds. Clean bathrooms. Fun interactive nature center and observation deck.
Soft sandy trail surrounded by pines and ferns. Low hum from the parkway did drown out the chirps from the chickadees and goldfinches when near, but the trail does go deep enough to get away from the vehicle noise.
Great place for a day with kids. Clean, lots of playgrounds and large picnic area. The visitor center is great too. Beware of ticks and Jersey devils in the woods! Playground: Clean and big enough for a lot of kids Restrooms: Clean Picnic area: Lots of tables, benches, grills
Amazing trails that are well maintained. Great ball fields and landscaping. Plenty of stuff to do here.
Great park for small children with two playgrounds, kid-friendly trails, and interactive nature center. The kids loved being in nature and could have stayed for hours!
We did the yellow trail. Took us just over an hour, very well marked, loose sandy trail in spots, very secluded and quiet, supposed to be multi use trail maybe if you have a mountain bike. Will do again. Recommend.
Chiggers and boring trails. 30 years on this planet i never got chiggers once until almost 2 weeks ago when i decided to finally check out this park. Still have the bites to this day. Lived around here forever ive walked every inch of woods in TR and been to parks all over Ocean County and never got chiggers until now. The hiking is awful theres nothing to see or explore and the trails suck. Nice sports fields but for hiking or walking avoid this place. Between the chiggers and all the Lakewood Jews dominating this park it was a terrible experience and ill never be back. So many better parks around.
Taking a short break in the shade. The parks pretty awesome. Something for everyone. Nature trails, gigantic playground, soccer/baseball fields. Plus there's the Nature Center with all kinds of history of New Jersey forest fires and Double Trouble. Still have a lot to explore!
We came from Galloway to visit today with the kids. Easy ride. Easy to find. Easy to get back on parkway. Lots to do. Even went up in lookout and saw some of the nature center. We cant wait to go back and figure out some trails!!!! Why aren't you there????!!!!! Go!!
My son went on a class trip. He absolutely enjoyed every minute. The nature's center was perfect for a young boy.
