"Cute little historic area tucked behind a beautiful neighborhood. Toys on table are there for anyone visiting to play with, just be respectful and leave there for others to enjoy too. Plenty of parking."
"Great place for scenery and an amazing metal sculpture, my only small issue is no biking and the only good place for me to put my bike was behind it, I had to bike an extra little bit, would give it a 4.5 stars but I sadly cant"
"Oh this is a fun site and place to walk in the woods. Wear lung pants and long sleeves to protect against ticks - there are a ton of deer in these woods - and the assorted prickly ground cover."
"This place is in the middle of nowhere; actually it’s at the dead end of Maple Ave. The Brees family maintains it, which is cool because it was a young Christopher Brees, as an Eagle Scout, who organized a project to find the lost dig site in the 80’s. It is definitely worth checking out and if you bring children, there are always little Dino toys on the picnic bench for them to play with. You’ll only be there for 5 minutes unless you try to hike down to the actual dig site down the small ravine, which we did, but it isn’t marked, so it’s not worth it. Either way check out this historic spot, then head to Kings Highway (and Chestnut Ave) Haddonfield where they have a bronze statue of the Hadrosaurus."
"I enjoyed the Hadrosaurus Foulki Site. The history of the find is interesting. The historical tour map of Haddonfield which relates to the find was also useful and interesting."
