    Came by after seeing the signs for founders day. They were artists with paintings come up photography, artist, and activities for kids. I like to usually beautiful, but we cherry blossom trees in full bloom, it was snowing petals. Very romantic! Is Park home beautiful fields, and benches to sit and relax. Now that spring is here it's perfect for lounging around, bird and people watching.

    Beautiful little park
    Dewan A.

    What a beautiful little park. You can do a quick loop a few times to get in to 10k a day steps. Also, the lake is very pretty. One of the cleanest parks in New Jersey. Highly recommend if you are around the area.

    Baver Community Center

    Some places are special only because they remind you of your childhood a time that now seems too surreal. Who was I then, I am not sure. What I do remember is the joy of the experiences I had in Taylor Park. Taylor Park was dedicated in May 29th, 1924, a gift from Mrs. John (Gertrude) Taylor. It gained an air of prestige from it's designer, the son of Frederick Law Olmstead. The rose garden entrance one of the remaining vestiges of his work is as magnificent as I remember. The varieties of Japanese maples and the Baver Community Center with it's fountain and pond showing off it's prominence highlight the park. You can still ice skate on the pond, Covid-19 permitting. The baseball field is still there. The basketball court where I would play with my buddies is a little worn but totally functional. They added a small fitness center and the child's playground could use some updating but through my eyes it is as it always was a place to have fun. This Sunday, I came to Taylor Park to have fun again meeting with some Millburn and Short Hills friends to play doubles tennis. It was nice to come back to Millburn and Taylor Park.

    Taylor park concert with Street Hassle and Brass Balls band
    Donna R.

    I came here with friends specifically to see The Band Street Hassle and Brass Balls. This is a 10 piece band with horns that played at Taylor Park as part of The Millburn free summer concert series which takes place in the summer. This park is very easy to get to and there is parking on the street all around. It is also not far from Main Street in Millburn so after going to the concert you could stop in Scotty's or a near by bar and have a drink or two. The park itself is beautiful and right by where the band played about 100 ft or so was a food truck selling homemade pizzas. Near there was enclosed bathrooms. To the right of where I was sitting is a beautiful pond and it has a fountain in the center. You can walk around the lake or bring lawn chairs, or a blanket for sitting. I would suggest you pack your own food or snacks along with drinks and watch one of the free concerts... This place is very kid friendly, the only thing is you can't leave the little ones unattended because there are cars always going by.. I saw several people bring their dogs in the park and they were watching the concert with them..Many of the locals walk from their homes. It's also a good idea to bring bug spray as the sunsets because I felt the bugs biting at dusk. I learned they also have tennis courts and basketball courts for playing. All around it's a nice park.

    Love this park...my favorite features in the park are the water fountain and the flower garden. There is much more offered here...tennis, picnic tables, baseball field, basketball court, etc.

Even on…read morea weekend it wasn't crowded, so my fam could take pictures without cropping out strangers. Really friendly staff gave the kids a scavenger hunt page that turned our visit into part garden tour, part treasure hunt. Between the terraces, tile work, grottoes, and gardens, the whole place blends European formality with a whimsical, art nouveau vibe. Plenty of benches invite you to sit and talk, while fenced-in chickens, geese, and beehives bring the grounds to life. The gardens feel peaceful, playful, and magical all at once. The beauty here is truly un-beleaf-able! NOTES/TIPS: **Admission is $15 for adults, $10 for seniors/students, and $5 for kids, with free parking close by. **Very limited wheelchair-accessibility: okay for the Main Terrace and some flat areas, but most paths are sloped or uneven, so access is limited. **Restrooms near the entrance.

    This place is a true paradise garden hidden somewhere in New Jersey !!!…read more The whole place is so beautiful , very serene , easy to navigate and kept very clean and green . It is definitely somewhere to go for a romantic date . The only issue I found with the place is that we couldn't find the gift shop or the little concession stand - coffee and snack . That was disappointing. Also staff is friendly but doesn't seem to be very good at giving directions . Aside from that it is such a beautiful place to visit

While it gets pretty busy around 4pm, it's often nearly empty. The fenced playground has wood chips covering the ground with an adjacent paved parking lot that fits about 20 cars, 2 large structures with several slides and climbing or hanging options (one for younger kids and the other for older children), a set of swings for babies, older kids, and children who need full neck support (with a harness and crotch strap), 2 flowers in which kids can sit and spin, and a bouncy structure for sitting with a dinosaur and car theme. A soccer/softball field area sometimes hosts organized games for children but otherwise, can be a great place for babies to experience the feeling of grass under their feet and for toddlers to run around in a big, open space or kick a ball. Since we're usually here for a while, I typically bring some water and snacks for my daughter who enjoys them at some picnic tables in a grassy area nearby. A bathroom's accessible in the nearby Community Center through the parking lot area during the day or through the front doors after hours. With all these features, kids won't want to leave.
