Located in downtown Morristown, N.J., Macculloch Hall has been part of the local community for over 200 years, first as the home to community-minded residents, George and Louisa Macculloch (1775-1858, 1785-1863), and since 1950, as a not-for-profit museum and garden. Founder W. Parsons Todd (1877-1976) endowed MHHM as a resource for all Morristown and Morris County residents. A Federal brick mansion, Macculloch Hall was built in 1810 by George Perrott Macculloch (1775-1858), the "Father of the Morris Canal." Today this historic house and decorative arts museum comprises nine period rooms, two exhibition galleries, a dedicated classroom, and an expansive formal garden, which is open to the public free of charge.

This 127-acre preserve, which surrounds a historic Colonial-Revival mansion and its formal gardens, offers self-guided nature trails with all trees and shrubs labeled as reference.
I discovered this place in 2019 and wanted to go back in the spring, so glad I did! The flowering trees and all the daffodils were beautiful! Definitely a nice place for a walk to quiet place to sit and look at all the beauty.

COVID-19 has taught me to appreciate our county parks more than ever and I don’t take things for granted like I used too. So as the parks are reopening with restrictions enjoy the beauty you can find within them, practice safe distancing and wear a mask as we do when walking the trails while looking at what nature has to offer.

We took a guided tour and enjoyed everything! We didn't spend much time in the main building, so went back to look at some of the displays. There's too much to read for just a one or two hour visit. You must have a guide to go into the historic house, and the stairways are steep and narrow. Definitely not ADA approved! Lots of original beds, paperwork, kitchen appliances and more. Well worth the time.

Took a trip to Schooley’s mountain park for a quick hike and ended up taking a nap on one of the huge boulders scattered close to the falls. Very relaxing clean park with some downsides. Makes sure you bring your hiking shoes there is some difficult terrain at some points. Also the green trail abruptly stops due to storm damage I believe. Don’t pass the fence or else you end up in someone’s property.

COVID-19 has taught me to appreciate all our county parks either small or large and to enjoy the beauty you can find within them. This past weekend Lewis Morris Park partially reopened with restrictions, so when you go out practice safe distancing and wear a mask as we did when walking the trails and enjoy what nature has to offer.
