Thompson Park,

805 Newman Springs Road, NJ 07738

"Great park with so many activities to do indoors and out! The off leash dog area is well maintained, the playground is great for older and younger kids. There are indoor restrooms and vending machines at the Visitor Center and creative art center as well as porta potty's throughout the park. Trails are both paved and unpaved, relatively flat terrain awesome for roller skates/blades. Bring a blanket and picnic on the lawn or find one of the areas with tables and grills for a beautiful lunch!"

"We went to Thompson Park Day, and again recently to snowshoe... both times we were impressed by the facilities! They have all sorts of activities which you would never expect in Monmouth County. We brought our own snowshoes but noted that they had cross-country ski and snowshoe rentals. The staff were still so kind to greet us warmly and let us know where we were allowed to venture to with our gear. Our son was so happy to waddle in the snow and see all the beautiful nature. Excellent park, we will be back!"

"Clean park featuring a dog park, paved trails, a pound, playground, and other activities. The resivor trail is currently my favorite. The monmouth county park system also offers a variety of classes and I do take pottery here as well."

"Great park in Monmouth County. Something for everyone in your family. Hiking, biking, boating, walking, tennis, pickle ball, kids play ground. Fall time foliage is beautiful"

"Large beautiful park with lots of trails. Great for taking a leisurely bike ride or enjoying the park with your dog. We had a dog pack walk there today. Lots of parking available. Several bathrooms. Also, there are lots of paved trails making this park area very accessible for those who move differently. There are several call boxes distributed around the park, in case of emergency."
