Upon arrival, we were greeted by a lovely lady who explained the layout and proceded to take care of our admission. We were directed to a kind gentleman who shared more about our journey through the Civil War. We enjoyed the artifacts, stories, displays, and a short film, Facing the Elephant. We spent 2-3 hours browsing around and learning about how the area was affected during the Civil War. We visited the gift shop where they have many interesting items, and all seemed to be fair priced. I highly recommend a trip here to learn a bit more history than the textbooks taught.

This is by far one of the best parks in the state! Saturday night they hosted a fun food truck family event right next to the biergarten. It was a lot of fun. They had events for kids, and live music. This was the perfect spot to enjoy one of the last summer nights. The next morning, we got up early and came back again. We had the whole park to ourselves while hiking around the property. While the trails within the woods were really magical, being so close to the road, it was a bit loud. Walking right along the water was really nice too. We saw two herons which was very cool! They have a lot of benches and great picnic areas throughout the whole park. The pavilions hosted a lot of parties the entire weekend, as well. All in all, it is clear they take care of this park really well. We are already planning on coming back for a day trip in the near future. If you are in the area, this park is definitely worth a stop!

Lighthouse Keeper Ron not only gave us a tour but he stamped and personalized the entries in my lighthouse passport. Not only is he a keeper but a master ship builder and maritime historian! What a pleasure to have met him and learn so much and be invited back for winter time festivities. Although it was a cloudy day, the lighthouse and museum are photogenic! What an awesome day!

We visited on a cloudy day but I love lighthouses and I was thrilled to see it. It reminded me of the little red lighthouse back home (Jeffrey's Hook) located under the George Washington bridge. The area was not crowded in late October.

My significant other and I gave this amusement park a chance with a brief visit. The parking lot was packed! That was a bad start, but also not entirely bad, as that could show that people loved this place. We went inside and walked around a bit. We went to the Ticket Sales counter to purchase our tickets for the Go-Karts and Bumper Cars. We just bought the individual tickets, as we weren’t planning on staying too long. The Go-Karts tickets were $8.50/Ride each person and the Bumper Cars were $4.00/Ride each person. We proceeded to go outside to hunt down the Go-Kart area. The line ended up being really long. It took about 30 minutes, so that was a bummer. There’s not much they could do about that, except maybe open an additional track. I’m kidding, of course. The Go-Karts were alright. I wasn’t a huge fan, but it was worth the try. After the Go-Karts, we went back inside the building to find the Bumper Cars. They weren’t far from the Ticket Sales counter. Our wait for those were fast! They were pretty goofy, but were worth the money. Be careful, as you have the power to make yourself dizzy! We looked at the menu at The Eatery. This was a little food joint they had inside of the facility. We ended up purchasing a Small Pepsi, a Medium Diet Pepsi, Nachos, and Cheese Curds. They gave complimentary jalapeños with the Nachos, so that was cool. The Cheese Curds had 1 Sauce Included, so that was cool as well. I chose ranch for the Sauce. The prices were friendly here. The food didn’t take long at all. Their drinks were great! The Nachos were tasty, especially with the jalapeños! The Cheese Curds were awesome. The ranch amplified the flavor! I was impressed by their food. It’s nice to not expect much and come out more pleased than you planned on being. The bathroom was pretty clean. For there being a lot of people, the grounds were kept up with! The employees that helped me throughout my time here were pleasant to deal with. Everyone had the right attitude for being in the place they are. Overall, I was impressed for the amount I spent compared to the quality received. I’m glad I tried them out!

No charge to enter, but they have a donation box with suggested donation of $1 for each person. There was also produce available for sale on the honor system at the parking lot. The calmness was welcome. After getting acquainted with the Sanctuary from the trail information available at the visitor center (it was not open), I went on the Old Indian trail (less than a mile long). The trail is mostly shaded except for the meadow at the Historic Buildings. The trail tracks beside the Pike Creek, has rolling hills and crosses the creek a couple of times. There are other trails intersecting with this trail; so one can make the walk as long or short as one likes. The collection of the historic buildings (two one-room schools) moved here from other places in the area are open for walk-in visits. There is a wigwam along the trail which is open to go in. Hawthorn Hollow Sanctuary is very well maintained by volunteers. It is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy nature and local history.
