Colonial Park is a gem in Somerset County. There are trails, waterfall, playground, tennis courts and beautiful scenery throughout, especially along the water. The rose and perineal gardens are just across the street. It is now on my favorite places to go list.

Nice walk and the trails are marked. There are shirt as well as longer trails and several take you through the woods. Just very nice and peaceful, not crowded when we went.

Rudolf W Van Goot Rose Garden is a one of many nice spots at Colonial Park. Filled with many beautiful roses and other flowers, it brought some needed beauty during this coronavirus crisis. I definitely recommend a stop there.
