I am truly NOT the outdoorsy type but I will agree to the occasional hike or bike ride and this was…read moreone of those days. We decided to explore Black Run Preserve for our first bike trail experience since moving to the area and it didn't disappoint. There are plenty of bike and hiking trails and doing a little research online prior to going I was able to map out which trails would be best for us, specifically since I'm a nervous beginner lol. The trails are color coded and tbe associated color markings are on trees along the trails so you know which trail you're on. There is so much beautiful scenery surrounding you whether you're on bike or foot and there's a real sense of peace and tranquility in the Preserve, Definitely spray yourself down with bug repellent and wear longer pants and tops if it isn't too hot because there are warning signs for ticks and such given it's truly a wooded area. We will be back in the fall for another ride among the beautiful foliage.

Open just 3 days a week for 6 weeks in the summer, it's completely free for kids 12 and under only. (8 and under on Tuesdays). It used to be a sanitarium & still serves as a place for kids to play, relax and eat free soup at noon. Seriously. It's been open for basically ever & is kind of a local secret. Unless you are a carousel expert, then you would know about their famous Ferrari carousel that is still operating and worth a trip just to experience alone. Look up the history online for an interesting story. The grounds are large enough for some soccer games etc. & I saw what looks like a volleyball court there too. There are old trees scattered around, so you can set yourself up with a blanket & camp chairs in the shade if you'd like. Or there are 3 large pavilions and multitudes of picnic tables all over the place. I also saw people with coolers of their own food. A huge slide, swimming and wading pools, free lunch at noon, plus snacks at 10 & 2, a playground, tons of swing sets and even old-school wooden see-saws = happy kids. http://southjerseyexplorer.com/2013/05/06/soupy-island-revisited/

If you want to host an event, you can reserve one of the pavilions to hold a BBQ cookout. There is a kids' play area for the little ones too. There's also a huge open lawn for outdoor activities, although it isn't the best spot because of all the goose droppings. Now, if they got the goose population under control, it would be awesome for football, frisbee, or volleyball. Alternatively, if you want some time to yourself to stroll the walking trail, it's certainly peaceful and serene, with gorgeous views of Philadelphia from the New Jersey side looking out across the Delaware River. Plus, the park has a lot of history, so be sure to take time to appreciate that aspect! PRO TIP: Saturdays are obviously the busiest, with all the group gatherings, so arrive early to find parking. The parking lot tends to fill up quickly during those times.

Really disappointing experience at Red Bank Battlefield. We were loading heavy items and parked…read morebriefly in the area where we've always unloaded for years. My family has been coming here for about 25 years, and we've unloaded heavy things in that same general area many times without issue. Instead of a simple warning or asking us to move, we were immediately given a parking ticket for being on the grass. If the rules have changed or this is now being enforced differently, basic courtesy would be to communicate that first. What made it worse was how the situation was handled. Matt was extremely rude, unprofessional, and unnecessarily confrontational. Longtime visitors shouldn't be treated like that, especially when simply loading/unloading heavy items. Very disappointing experience at a place we've supported and visited for decades.

Nice gazebos and picnic areas for parties and events. Enjoy the great view over the lake as you walk around. Sometimes they also have remote controlled boat races on the lake.

This is one of the better OFF-LEASH dog parks in the area. It is large. The enclosed fence is very…read morehigh and secure. (even for dogs that are known to scale some high fences). The park has a double-gated entry. You must use a leash while entering/exiting the park. A maximum of two dogs per adult at one time is allowed inside the park. When other dogs are waiting, they ask that you limit your use to thirty (30) minutes. Owners must remain with their dogs at all times. For me, I use the dog park to allow my dog to run wild, exercise and play catch with me. I also use it for him to socialize with other dogs. However, I don't like dog parks that allow multiple dogs (either does my dog) so the two dog rule is perfect for us. They have dog poop trash cans and bags for animal waste disposable. CONS: A permit is required for use of the park (annual fee is $25) and the rules are quite strict (http://tinyurl.com/mocahjx). For me, this is a PRO because it helps keep out the riff-raff. Though, not sure how many people actually have permits. I would give a 5 star rating but the last time I visited the park I found a few pot-holes in the ground (dog could break a leg). Hopefully the township fixes them soon.
