Herd Community…read more Local community park that's funded entirely by donations. The Good: *All the flowers and plants in the park are native plants. *Plaques on the trees help identify the species. *Amphitheater area for concerts and car shows. *Parking lot and street parking *Shaded picnic area *Native flower trail is gorgeous The Meh: *Port-o-potty only The Ugly: *If you have seasonal allergies, this is not the place for you. So much pollen and stuff in the air got my nose, throat and eyes in a dander. TLDR: Overall, nice little park with decent amenities but probably better for locals than out-of-town folks.

I had site five, which was by the river, but there is a bit of a hill to climb to get to/from the site, so if you have accessibility issues or a lot of heavy gear, stick to sites one or two. The bathroom situation is only okay. There is a building with flush toilets nearby, but it is only open from 7:30am-9pm each day, and those times aren't set in stone. Other than that, there is one port-a-potty that could stand to be serviced more frequently than is currently scheduled. Each camping site has a water spigot, a picnic table, and a fire pit, but you need to buy firewood off-site; we found some at Lowe's. You are close to a lot of scenic drives through farm country, and we saw a lot of Amish traveling by horse and buggy on our drives. Also nearby is the city of Lancaster, which is beautiful, way bigger than anticipated, and surprisingly had several Puerto Rican restaurants. All in all this park is a great home base for a trip to Lancaster, and the camping facilities are great.

I loved that there is a separate play area for smaller toddlers, which my daughter loved. I think she will get a lot more enjoyment out of this park when she is a "big kid", though! Everything was in great shape and well cared for. I highly recommend checking out this park if you have kiddos!

Amos Herr Park is a 56-acre paradise thanks to a brand new children's play area called the "dream…read morepark." I came upon it today while having a meeting in Landisville and was so impressed that I had to bring my boys after school. The itself park was donated to the Township by the late Amos Herr who was a former high school teacher and coach. His ancestors were among the earliest settlers of Landisville. The new "dream park" was almost completely financed and built by the residents of East Hempfield Township. It took them 11-days to construct the playground and it opened last year. This adorable play area includes a zip line! Here are some of the other amenities: * Soccer and baseball fields * Tennis courts * Bocci court * Basketball * Volleyball courts * Restrooms * Rental Pavilion * Large, grassy fields * Benches * Water Fountain (play area) * Dog Waste Station * There are plans to build a trail.

This playground was recommended by my son's chiro's office. Just as a place to go, nothing chiro…read morespecial about it. There is a lot of large equipment, but not a whole lot of variety or imagination in the different interactive functions. Reeves Park's playground (Phoenixville), Smith Memorial Playground (Fairmount Park), Freedom Playground (Haverford), and Aston Twp's new playground all have really imaginitive stuff, and just as large of an expanse (if not larger). I also have to give props to the Reeves Park and Freedom playgrounds for being fenced in (Smith is, but it's so big, the fence is not as containing as it could be). Kids Dream is not fenced, unfortunately, because it is a layer of safety I always appreciate, for young kids who run, and also just to keep out wandering dogs (the ones on a long leash whose caretakers aren't paying attention) or to dissuade sketchy people from hanging around (sorry but they're everywhere). There is a nearby walking trail, and it's also adjacent to township offices (shared parking lot). I do have to comment that there was a bit of litter generally around, which is never okay for a kids' playground. Also, this playground is pretty crowded. Parents seemed adequately considerate, but honestly, all the abovementioned playgrounds had a better vibe to me. Maybe because this place was built up by my recommendation and the reviews, but it wasn't as great as my expectations (and comparative experiences).

If you want your small children to nap, then have them walk up the steps to the slides a dozen times. There is a nice variety of playground equipment for all ages including swings, a 3 person seesaw, spinning/ climbing thing, etc. All the equipment has a castle theme which is super cute. I love that the entire playground is fenced in with fences high enough that young kids definitely cannot get over. The fencing around the steps/ platforms for the slides is also super safe to prevent falls. I feel totally comfortable letting my kids walk up and slide down by themselves while I wait at the bottom. Bathrooms nearby are better than most playgrounds. The only downside is that there isn't a lot of shade. Some benches are shaded but none of the playground equipment is shaded so you feel like you're baking on a hot day. There are covered benches at the entrance of the playground for parents. But your kids will have so much fun that they'll barely notice how hot they are.

This 6 mile trail is full of pleasant surprises; it's one of the more interesting and versatile…read moretrails to ride on.  We started at the Warwick Twp Municipal Park, which itself has a pleasant 3/4 mile paved loop. Plenty of space at the parking lot which also boasts a Bike Share! It's a self-service bike rental for which you can pay online for 2 or 4 hours of use. If you cross the street, the trail is supposed to continue for another 3/4 miles. So in all you have about 7.5 miles of trail to work with in this domain. The trailhead is just behind the Bike Share. The surface is mostly smooth crusted stone until you reached the Ephrata Linear Park portion which is fully paved -- and lighted!  I am now really curious if I should come back and check it out at night one of these days.   The trail is mostly wooded, at least on one side. It passes through Amish farms - you can also tell by the aeromatic air as you pass through them? So many silos in sight along the way, you can even make it a point to count them! You will ride past the Gnome Village, Winters statue, and some interesting murals. There is also a bike park, not sure if it's free to ride through it, but there was a birthday party going on at the time and we got a treat watching young kids getting airborne. There's one "permanent" porta potty on the Ephrata side of the trail. The trail ends at the Main St in Ephrata. It's such a contrast coming out of the trail, as we suddenly immersed into "civilization"!  Seriously, our eyes literally lit up at the sight of downtown Ephrata which is surprisingly quaint, especially with the fall foliage still lingering.   It was such a delightful experience. All of the roads we had to cross had very little traffic, and the drivers were all so courteous and stopped for the bikers.  The only slightly negative was the trail was noticeably crowded. But it's totally understandable as it was a sunny, pleasant, 72 degree weather on a Saturday in November!   We were so blessed!
