This park has: - a gravel parking lot with portable toilet - paved trails - fenced-in playground - a small lake with fountain (I've seen people fish here) - large gazebo with outdoor grill available for reservations - doggy bags for your furkid - wooded trail area in back of the park All-in-all, an awesome place for families. If you need refreshments, there is a shopping center (with Corropolese, Saxby's) not too far down.

It's generally clean for a small park full of pre-teens during the day. The few trees here are old and big, which is nice. For non summer camp days, it can be a pretty quiet & boring suburban place, pleasant yet creepy. It'll do if I don't want to drive too far for a bigger place.

They also have yoga in the park at nearby Rockledge Park through Twisted Monkey Yoga Studio. It has more climbing structures and running space for toddlers than nearby Ciegelkowski, but it doesn't have the baseball field or basketball/tennis courts that the other park has. Never usually that many kids there (if you want your child to have some playmates - there's Wall Park in Cheltenham or Champion Park or Fox Chase Rec in Fox Chase).

I rented the House with the patio that overlooks the Perkiomen Creek for a family baby shower. It was so nice and cozy inside and has plenty of seating. The photos turned out nice. Many compliments on the location. I would definitely rent this house in the park again! The great thing about this particular park is you can see many joggers, bike riders, and horse back riding on the Perkiomen trail in the park; but there is enough space to not feel crowded. Otts exotic plants is nearby and makes a nice day trip if you have time to stop at both places.

At that birdwatching station, they have an area full of birdbaths and other things to attract birds, so there were quite a variety of birds there. There's disc golf and a few areas for hiking as well, so it could be a nice place to continue exploring, especially since it's so close to home!

It was a pretty park with a nice lookout tower for birdwatching (birdfeeders are positioned to coax birds to stay for a bit) and plenty of hawks circling; however, it did seem more geared for picnicking/grilling and/or camping. There were no marked trails and we just kind of looped around until we hit a road and then looped back again. The park has plenty of parking and the restrooms were open and clean, even during the pandemic.

You feel like you are in the middle of the woods, if not for the fact that it is part of a school. The construction materials and ground covering are brown and the theme is fun throughout. There is everything from monkey bars to swings, to rope challenges, to huge climbing structures. We spent only about 30 minutes here and the kids did not want to leave. Everything is in good condition and the crowd here was engaged with their kids and friendly. Such a gem in the middle of Chestnut Hill. Street parking is easy on the main drag or one block off behind the school.

It is a fairly large, mostly wooden playground. The thing I like about it is that there are usually lots of local kids there with their parents, so your kids will usually have someone to play with, and there are lots of parents present to head off any trouble. You might think that it would be hard to park in this popular area of town, but it usually isn't too much of a problem.

Overall, pretty nice spot for a morning or afternoon walk on a nice day. Also nice for outdoor gatherings with friends during this pandemic!

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 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.
