Most everyone I know still calls this place Bethel Mill Park even though the name officially…read morechanged years ago. I adhere to that categorization and thus will use the old name here. Admittedly, today was the first time I visited since I was a teenager. The park looked the same. I grew up about five minutes away from this park so it was host to plenty of picnics, walks, friend outings, and the *super intense* school walk-a-thons. It's a cool park in that you can make your own adventure. Walk out in the sun, play a sport on one of the courts, hang out in the pavilion, or head down to the wooded path and walk along the water/admire wildlife/feed ducks. It's especially nice that Bethel Mill has on-site bathrooms that are well-kept and stocked with toilet paper. I wish parks like Cooper River would follow suit. This park is family oriented, offers plenty of shade and sun, and has nice benches all around. I'm a fan and hope to visit more often this spring.

We paddled out into the lily pad area that had a clear spot to go through. We saw lots of turtles and a few beaver dams (didn't spot the beavers though). There were sooo many pretty blue dragonflies that liked to land on our boat and sometimes us! We also saw some floating snail shells in the water. Our paddle took about an hour, and they allow you to borrow the kayaks up to 2 hours. After our paddle we checked out the playground for a bit. It was perfect for our 4 year old. It has 4 big kid swings and 2 baby swings and areas for the both the bigger kids and little ones.

I struggle with the trash in the marshes, I am not sure if it is the wind picking it up but I hope there can be more effort cleaning up. It was also extremely sad to see the turtles covered in oil which seems like pollutants from the water. Nonetheless, the trails are nice to walk on. The trails have no elevation but are nicely graveled.

Over the weekend, I was looking for a park with a shaded picnic area and a dog park. I did a quick…read moregoogle search and John Adler Memorial Park turned up. The article says "Award winning fully accessible park". That description alone was good enough and I didn't bother looking at the pictures. This park was soooooo nice. They've got an outdoor gym, a softball field, a huge playground, two bocce ball courts, a small picnic area, and a dog park across the parking lot. The facilities were so clean and so well maintained. The bathrooms were better than your average park bathrooms and had motion sensor faucets. I completely appreciate how well this park was designed. The dog park was super spacious and divided into two sections, one for small dogs and one for large large dogs. The place looked clean and was well stocked with poop bags. Overall this is just a great park for everybody.

This playground was recommended by my son's chiro's office. Just as a place to go, nothing chiro…read morespecial about it. There is a lot of large equipment, but not a whole lot of variety or imagination in the different interactive functions. Reeves Park's playground (Phoenixville), Smith Memorial Playground (Fairmount Park), Freedom Playground (Haverford), and Aston Twp's new playground all have really imaginitive stuff, and just as large of an expanse (if not larger). I also have to give props to the Reeves Park and Freedom playgrounds for being fenced in (Smith is, but it's so big, the fence is not as containing as it could be). Kids Dream is not fenced, unfortunately, because it is a layer of safety I always appreciate, for young kids who run, and also just to keep out wandering dogs (the ones on a long leash whose caretakers aren't paying attention) or to dissuade sketchy people from hanging around (sorry but they're everywhere). There is a nearby walking trail, and it's also adjacent to township offices (shared parking lot). I do have to comment that there was a bit of litter generally around, which is never okay for a kids' playground. Also, this playground is pretty crowded. Parents seemed adequately considerate, but honestly, all the abovementioned playgrounds had a better vibe to me. Maybe because this place was built up by my recommendation and the reviews, but it wasn't as great as my expectations (and comparative experiences).

Very large, very open, very clean park, smack dab in the middle of Gloucester Township. We went…read morehere yesterday, just looking for a new park to check out, and we were pleasantly surprised. This park pretty much has everything; playgrounds, open spaces, ball fields, basketball courts, a hiking trail (allegedly...we couldn't find it, but that was most likely our fault,) walking paths, etc, etc. Despite being so large, it's also rather connected, if that makes sense, and you're able to get to everything relatively quickly. The park is more "open" than "large." For example, you can get from one playground to another, without having to take a trek. There is a ton of space, but you're able to traverse the space to navigate the park. There's also plenty of parking. Also, they do drive in movies and stuff here, AND, it's dog friendly, so there aren't too many negatives. The only "downside" I could see is that it got pretty busy, and just being crowd-phobic by nature, it's less than ideal for me. We'll definitely be back early and often.
