Reviews
"Open space with interesting trees, a pond, a mansion. Next to a large community garden in beautiful Chester county. Plenty of parking."
"Love this little park!!! We love to fish here with the kids. They always catch some fish!! The turtles are alittle crazy and will always try and get your bait."
"Stopped by this park for a little bit and it has a pond with a fountain and some cool water birds. It has a loop going around the pond and plenty of places to park. Good for a little walk."
"We enjoyed strolling around the lake and relaxing on the willow-tree shaded benches in this public park. There is free parking, a picnic table area and 2 portable toilets, but no other amenities. They allow fishing in the pond for youth under 16. The park includes a restored historic mansion with adjacent parking. The mansion with brick patio in the rear is not open for public view but is available for rental. Warning: be aware that residents bring their off-leash dogs here. The dogs are supposed to stay leashed until visitors reach the adjoining Skunk Hollow Park. However, we saw groups of dogs running off-leash around parts of the park. Finding the park entrance is tricky: use 490 Darby Paoli Road, Villanova for gps to find it."
"Peace, serenity, beauty abounds at this Main Line, PA park. Rolling hills for picnicking or sunbathing, a pond for fishing or quiet contemplation, a woodsy hiking trail, and plenty of picnic tables for an outdoor meal. A few grills are available (but need cleaning so bring a grill brush), portable toilets, and of course garbage cans. The picnic tables are shaded and adjacent to a babbling brook. A fair amount of parking near the hiking trail."
