    Thank you to the volunteers who run this amazing place. If any Pennsylvania legislators or friends…read moreread this, please get the formaldehyde to the preserved animals exhibit. They aren't making meth! The exhibits are educational, and show the consequences of not watching out for wildlife driving. As mentioned a volunteer effort, and the primary goal, is to get people who live in cities and elsewhere, to learn about biology, ecology, and seeing something different. So glad to have found this peculiar yet family friendly place. Signs educate you about the trout hatchery pools and streams. Nets are across them, to prevent birds from attacking/eating the trout. There are five species of these fish, and heron are in the area looking at them still. You can if you choose pay 50 cents to $2, for a bag of fish food. My best guess is it's some type of dog food like pellets. You can choose how much to throw in, and watching hundreds if not thousands of fish swarm at one time is fascinating. Outstanding for teaching kids cause and effort, or perhaps classical conditioning too. One tank the trout wait for these pellets left over to roll their way. If you can donate to help this place out, you can with the on site wishing well. Credit cards aren't accepted, but it's just a few dollars. Fully recommend!

    Interesting park-like setting for a trout fishery. They grow trout. This place is owned by the…read moreparks department. You can feed the trout only by purchasing their food. It's a nice area for children and adults. Free parking and no admission

    Honestly, I don't know why this place got such few stars? The four stars that I've assigned as well…read moredeserved. I visited on a weekday and perhaps that made all the difference in the world. My experience form beginning to end was fantastic. I think one thing that seems to bother most people is the BBQ lunch. The BBQ lunch was apart of my package and when I arrived they were just loading the buns to be taken out on the river. I'm getting a little ahead of myself here but you'll understand in a minute. When I arrived, there were already several eager adventurous folks checking in, buying waterproof items for sale, collecting their water rafts and some even already on the water. I checked in with my Groupon and as directed, I left my keys - collected my Kayak and proceeded to the bus. Please note, the rule is, everyone must wear a mask until you're actually on the water; great rule as it gets crowded in the shop as well as on the bus. It keeps everyone safe. I chose the kayak experience which was awesome but the real fun is in a tube. After my journey down the river, I immediately purchase another Groupon just so that I could come back and have a tubing experience. So, back to the BBQ lunch. By the time I paddles my way down (a few signs for the waters edge for direction) to the BBQ shack on the water, they were still setting up. I guess I paddle too fast. I decided to keep moseying down the river as I had already packed a lunch just in case after reading the reviews about the BBQ shack not being up and running. Oh well, next time I'll enjoy a burger. Again, this is the perfect mid week escape. The ride outside of NY is quick and there's plenty of parking. Although it says Delaware tubing it's actually located in New Jersey; well at least the border between the two. I would recommend going early and taking as much time as you like in a tube with family and friends. I would also recommend bringing children as they will develop a lifelong love of being on the water. I'm a big fan now and I can't wait to return in a few weeks. P.S. I was told by my bus driver, they offer a fall foliage experience where they only allow kayaks on the river.
