My favorite area was where we could see the crystal clear pond in the cave floor. Next to the visitor center are some goats, alpacas, and a turkey. Also there's a cage with a blue and white peacock. I wish the peacocks had more space to roam, as mentioned by another Yelper.

This is the best post office I have ever been to. The two guys that work the front desk are the…read moredefinition of professional. I have been in there over 25 times and they have been nothing but helpful every time. They are courteous and friendly and strike up conversations with the people who come in. There is a small town feel where it's like they know you and are glad to see you come in and glad to help. And the back of the house must be quick and efficient, too, because my eBay customers praise me constantly for how fast they get their shipments. The managers and employees of this post office are absolutely amazing and certainly appreciated.

When you let the GPS route you to places, it sometimes sends you down interesting roads. Today, we…read morewere routed through this neighborhood and along the somewhat steep hills, I spotted this marker and cemetery. We stopped to take a look. The marker reads, "Peter Berst came to America with his four children, Peter, Jr., Regina Rachel, Elizabeth Margareth, and Johannes. In 1765, Peter warranted this land, which would pass to Johannes, and in time, to John Jr. John Jr. was instructed to keep the burial ground "in good fence forever". In 1875, John Jr.'s son, David, sold the property to Caroline Shoemaker. Eventually, the land was sold to Allen Walton. In 2001, the burial ground was donated to the Derry Township Historical Society." Peter was the first to be buried in what is now known as the Berst Family Cemetery. There are now 20 or so memorials. The Bersts were the original owners of the land that would later become the site of the Hummelstown Brownstone Company quarry. In 1863, they permitted two entrepreneurs to begin quarrying stone from their property. This modest operation grew rapidly, and by 1867 it had evolved into the Pennsylvania Brown Free Stone Company. Eventually, under the leadership of Allen Walton, the company was rechartered in 1891 as the Hummelstown Brownstone Company. This quarry became one of the most prominent producers of brownstone in the United States, rivaling even the famed Portland quarries in Connecticut. The stone was used in hundreds of buildings across the country, and the Berst family's decision to allow quarrying on their land played a pivotal role in that industrial boom. A quiet cemetery in a quiet community but behind it, the story of an industrial capital. [Review 1042 of 2025 - 690 in Pennsylvania - 24596 overall]

This is our second tournament in Hershey PA in 2 years with Travel Champs. We have 2 children who…read moreboth play hockey and we have been to MANY tournaments. The Travel Champs tournaments are by far the most poorly managed tournaments we have participated in. TC promises your team to play 4 games for your tournament fee. Last year our team was put in a bracket that did not have enough teams and were eliminated with only 3 games. It was pointed out to TC that this could occur prior to the tournament but was not corrected by TC. This year there was a mechanical issue at one of the rinks so some of the games had to be cancelled. TC then ignored their published tournament rules and made up seeding for the finals. So again we will only be playing 3 of the promised 4 games! Travel Champs does not deliver what they advertise. POORLY run at best. Save your money play anywhere else.

One of the top automotive museums I've been to. Two levels of exhibits. Lots of cars. Also a…read moresection with motorcycles. A Lionel train layout on the lower level. Plus special exhibits. In our mid-March 2026 visit, there was a SAAB exhibit and a large section with hot rods & souped up old cars. The cars shown are mostly US ones. Tickets are reasonably priced. What we saw had a lot of 1950s - early 1960s emphasis. Some exhibits gave me a "Happy Days" vibe. Others got me thinking of the Beach Boys SoCal tunes. There were interesting side exhibits for drive-in theatres & roadside diners. We could step into the counter area of the diner. Ask for Flo ;-) Other eras represented as well, including the earlier half of the 20th Century. If you are the area & like cars or US pop culture history, this a great spot to visit.
