Chester County Historical Museum

Reviewed By tbartelme

Downtown Chester has great historical bones but also has fallen on hard economic times. That said, this museum is a wonderful storehouse of the area's history. Highly recommended for a quick hour or so visit.

Chester State Park

Reviewed By jlantern3 - Columbia, United States

This park has a fantastic disc golf area. Two courses- a 9 and a 18 hole course. Both were laid out in a great manner and made for great play. The park offers trails to walk, several picnic ares, a ranger station that offers merchandise. The lake is good size. non-motorized crafts and fishing with a license is allowed. Very peaceful place---the the disc golf I highly reccomend
