I have been coming here for years. When I was a kid it was for the lake and picnic areas. Now I refuse to go to the lake as the people who seem to go are rude, loud and obnoxious. They do have an area to buy food, but it's a bit over priced. Outside of the lake area are great walking, hiking and biking trails. It is quite beautiful and you may even forget you're in NJ for a bit. Try to load the car up as entry during the "on season" is charged per car.

Saw thrice last night, awesome show. This was our second concert at this venue, we like sitting side stage near the restroom (inches away from the bands entering the stage!), get there early this place gets packed. I invested in VIP parking both times, worth every penny for a nice parking spot and cutting the entire line on a cold rainy night! I appreciate the security team for being as tough as they are, you can't take chances today. The bartender was friendly and the drink prices are decent ($12 a beer at the wellmont theater compared to $7 at starland).

Just saw America perform this week--great concert and perfect example of how the State Theatre brings in many nostalgic bands in addition to children's events, a Broadway series with hot shows on Broadway, blues and jazz, comedians, and much more. Prices are reasonable compared to...MoreThanks William - glad you enjoyed the show!

Pool bar. Clean, good drinks, fun staff. Good neighborhood place. Only issue is the host a pool league every night so no one else can come in and just shoot a game for fun.

i do not use those words too often in my reviews but wow! i never expected the place to be that good! food, atmosphere, and staff were just top, top notch-- especially christine. very friendly, cozy, yet professional. service was impeccable. we sat on the chef's counter and watched as they masterfully prepared and plated their creations. i tries the eggplant ravioli and creamed cheese chard. evrything else i tasted from others was simply amazing. just look at my pictures. the duck breast was the best i have had in years. this is a farm to table place and of course everything was freshly prepped. the heirloom bread and home made butter are a must. you wont be disappointed. oh i will be back.

This is a great theater, even though it's gone through several managements in the last few years. You can't beat being able to book your seat in advance (although warning: don't wait until the last minute or you'll find yourself with no availability), and you can find good deals on the popcorn as well. Thumbs up!

We used to visit this park in late 90s when we were living in Iselin. When we visited a few weeks ago, we were delighted to see the park so much improved with facilities and upkeep. There are spots for picnics, playing, place for artists to perform and everything a good community park should have. Felt very nice to be here.
9. Perth Amboy Waterfront

I know that Perth Amboy doesn't necessarily have the best reputation. We had a great time many years ago and thought let us head back there to do some sailing.
Our family has a 36 foot boat that is moored here. Took the launch to our boat and sailed on a Friday - the last day of summer. The winds were light to non-existent. Even so, we were able to go slowly and enjoy the harbor. The winds picked up and we relaxed as we enjoyed the water, the sun, and the view of Staten Island. Are you kidding?
Not at all. What a relaxing day. There weren't too many boats in the area. Once sunset came we got to enjoy a beautiful skyline with the sun setting. If you were in the mood you could have gotten dinner at the Armory.
This place is close to where we live (about 45 min away) which makes it ideal. Yes, there are other places to keep your boat (yes, we've tried a lot of places in a 100 mi radius) but this place works for us.

Living in the central Jersey.
I always drive down south for beach.
This one place is amazing. Well maintained.
Very scenic and peaceful.
Place looks ideal to take a solo walk too.
Wish I could live by this scenic view.
This place has been a blessing.
