(very odd as there is no sand but y'know...) i wish there was a place to change out of my wet bathing suit and into dry clothes, but other than that it was worth trying out on a really hot day! really clean pool and life guards are posted at every side :) unfortunately did not get any pics!

Our group of 20 arranged for 18 holes of golf and lunch after. Unfortunately, I injured myself a…read moreday prior and could only do the lunch. I pass this course quite often, played there years ago and was disappointed that I couldn't golf. I forget about this course actually. Anyway, as my group finished golf and arrived for lunch most said the grounds were as hard as a rock, not in good shape and I should be glad not to have golfed that day. Hmm. They all said no more golf outings there. In all fairness, it is the first week of Spring and maybe it just needs more time since the season is just starting. Nonetheless...they were very disappointed. On a good note, the 20 of us sat on the outside covered patio and had a really good lunch. I wasn't expecting much based on the bad reviews of the course therefore I was quite surprised just how good the food was at their restaurant. My burger and fries were delicious. Cooked exactly as requested. The chicken cheesesteak was a huge sandwich and filled with a generous amount of chicken. Two could easily share that. Everyone enjoyed their food and drinks. Only one mishap...they ran out of fries! Substituted onion rings. Normally, that would be a good thing however, the onion rings looked awful. Skinny and overdone, more fried breading then onion...not the good kind of onion rings. Glad I was last to get the fries otherwise my review would be less stars. The quesadilla, salads and other meals also looked very good and generous portions. Our service was friendly and timly. I can see going back for lunch at some point to dine outside on a nice day. Not sure about the golf? I was fluctuating between 3 and 4 stars bc 3.5 would be my pick however, I just can't do 4 stars...hopefully next time. And I will try the restaurant again...probably one of the better restaurants in that area.

Peace Valley Park was quite busy when we stopped by for a quick walk.

Six miles of asphalt trail surround Lake Galena. It is handicapped friendly. Plenty of benches along the path to sit and watch the water activities. We will be back later in the season to check out the wooded trails. We took a short walk then drove around to the other side where there were pavilions and a nature center whcih I will discuss in a separate review. From our brief visit, this Doylestown park has a lot to offer. Fishing, boating, picnicking, birdwatching and more. We will be back for sure to explore more.

My son had a blast. You are allowed unlimited play, but we were good after one round. They sell ice cream and water ice, so we treated ourselves on the way out. Overall we had a really nice time. There is also plenty of parking. *They are open during COVID-19 and ask that you social distance. While we were there, this was not a problem. The inside building is closed, but you can still golf and get ice cream. There is a port-a-potty available and multiple hand sanitizer stations throughout.

There's one 18-hole course, and it's around $10 per person. The best part is that you can stay and play as many times as you want, so you can get your money's worth if you're up for multiple rounds. Or, more realistically, you can play again to try to redeem yourself after that embarrassing 6 on the 4th hole! The course was well maintained, fun, and just challenging enough to keep things interesting. There's quite a bit of water, and it's surprisingly easy to find yourself fishing your ball out of a pond. Fortunately, the balls float, and there are strategically placed nets in the spots where you're most likely to need them, which is a nice touch. You'll also find the usual obstacles like rocks and "sand traps." Although, calling them sand traps is being pretty generous--they're more like rock traps. I would have liked to see a little more theming throughout the course and some different types of hazards. Once you've conquered the water and rocks, there isn't a whole lot of variety. They also have an indoor, air-conditioned snack bar serving Nelson's ice cream, which is a pretty great way to cool off after a round--or recover emotionally from the hole that just ruined your score. Overall, it's a nice, well-kept mini golf course with reasonable pricing, unlimited play, and a few good challenges. It may not have the elaborate themes or crazy obstacles of some of the bigger courses, but it's a fun place to spend some time and definitely worth checking out.

She was so ill-mannered that all she did was blow her whistle and complain under her breath. However, this one lifeguard, Brigid, was so kind.

I gave the NGP 4 stars due to the fact that lifeguard Lindsay was so rude. Watch out for her when you plan to visit this establishment!

This is our fifth summer at this pool. For the price you pay, which is much cheaper than the other…read morepools we looked at, I think it's a good deal. We've always been able to find chairs, though I always bring my own anyway just in case. The staff is firm with the rules, like no running on the concrete deck and making sure you have your membership cards with you. Personally, I like that the staff are watching everyone and keeping the rules enforced. There are always people who get pissy about having their children corrected when they break rules, and certainly there are always people at the pool who think rules only exist for everyone else. The pool has always been clean, the staff patrols the area and the lifeguards are attentive, and the whole area is nicely kept. We live in Upper Dublin and drive 20 minutes to this pool every day because it's a much better deal and my kids love the water slides and snack shack (though the snack shack is outside the pool club, but they can walk there in one minute). Overall, we've been happy there and plan to continue going!
