Thirty acres of a 1913 estate fashioned into a series of formal gardens including a meadow, woodland with shrubs and a produce garden.

My daughter and I spent an entire afternoon here last Saturday exploring the grounds and gardens. The grounds are incredibly beautiful and unique. The many seats and benches throughout the property encourage quiet contemplation of your surroundings. We had a very enjoyable time and I look forward to going back for one of their picnic evenings!

Everything about this place is great. They run on time, their website is easy to navigate, the staff is wonderful (shout to Dan for being an awesome guide!) and the rooms are incredibly well designed. My friends and I had a blast in both the Revolution Spies and The Lab rooms. Thanks for giving us a great first and second escape room experience!!

This is the unforgiving spot where George Washington's weary troops passed the brutal winter of 1777-78.
Reviewed By Zach F
Our Scout troop toured the encampment utilizing a Bluetooth speaker and the audio tour. It was a wealth of information over and above what our leaders were able to convey to the scouts. Two of them are history teachers and the audio tour was accurate to a tee it was a wonderful addition to our trip.

Jenkins Arboretum & Gardens is a wonderful example of humans working alongside Mother-Nature in preserving, creating, and showing what lives among us. We lose more local woodland areas every year in the name of progress so please visit and enjoy this beautiful garden sanctuary as my wife and I recently did.
5. Wharton Esherick Museum
Overall Ratings
5 based on 52 reviews
Wharton Esherick was a sculptor who worked primarily in wood, readily extending his unique forms to furniture, furnishings, utensils, interiors, buildings and more. His motto, "if it isn't fun, it isn't worth doing," is evident in the joyful expression of his work, inviting the eye and the hand. A National Historic Landmark for Architecture, his hilltop studio/residence, with more than 300 of his works on exhibition, has been preserved much as it was when the artist lived and worked there. The Museum is open to the public through guided tours for which reservations are required.
Reviewed By Rosemary G - Paoli, Pennsylvania
This museum is an incredible gem, worth visiting! Small group tours are available. This was the home he built. Hard to describe the woodworking here but it is priceless. He integrated the woods, trees, colors along with his carvings and sculptures. Plan to spend at least 3 hours for the tour and exploring!

I have really enjoyed being a season ticket holder for the past few years. Peoples Light and Theatre has something for everyone; original plays, musicals, drama, classics. Students can attend for reduced prices when tickets are purchased the day of the show. They are really accommodating to season ticket holders who need to change dates. Check them out!

Reviewed By Ted S - Dagsboro, Delaware
I cannot really describe this place nor do the photos tell the whole story. This is a working museum of collectibles from circuses and antique animatronics, nickelodeons, antique cars, dolls, player pianos, music boxes - well, you get the idea. These displays showcase the 60-year collecting hobby of someone who remains unidentified. How he did it is beyond me but he has surely traveled all over the USA and has millions of dollars stashed away somewhere. Regardless of what interests you it's probably been collected and placed on display. I was blown away by the number of items that WORK! See and hear the most astonishing collection of working player pianos I have ever seen. Also, the kinds of mechanical music machines to be seen at old sideshows in circuses. check the website (americantreasuretour.com) for times when they are open and for prices. I expressed astonishment at the technical knowledge obviously present to get all these machines working and repaired. The tour guides are pleasant, funny, and knowledgeable. Something for all ages and if your as old as me see how many items you remember as a kid!

A place of quiet reflection that blends religion with patriotism. You can pray and think about those who sacrificed much to birth this country. Much to look at and think about.
