I enjoyed the area. Is wide open and lots of people just hang out on the grass. There are history markers all around. There's a parking area but more can be found on Princeton Pike. There's a monument on one side. There are no restrooms anywhere. Behind the historical house there is a preserve where you can hike around.
This is the most well-preserved Revolutionary War battlefield in America, thanks to the Clarke family and the Hale family, from whom it passed to the state of New Jersey in 1946. Unfortunately politics got the better of the place and produced the fictitious Milner Report, a fairy tale version of the battle created to preserve the Maxwell tract. For a long time, the Thomas Clarke House was derelict.
Open field with hidden trails through the woods, nearby stream, cable bridges, and lots of history. This really is an amazing park
Decent park, but the building is never open (even pre-covid). My biggest issue is as a veteran, the flag I not lit at night which is a HUGE NO-GO for proper flag etiquette and veterans that know and have served under this flag... I have tried calling around and no one seems to know who to talk to about this!
Popular spot for picnicking, laying out on a blanket to get some sun or read a book. You can safely park your car on the shoulder of Princeton Pike. A great place for pictures especially in the fall.
