Downtown Chester has great historical bones but also has fallen on hard economic times. That said, this museum is a wonderful storehouse of the area's history. Highly recommended for a quick hour or so visit.

This park has a fantastic disc golf area. Two courses- a 9 and a 18 hole course. Both were laid out in a great manner and made for great play. The park offers trails to walk, several picnic ares, a ranger station that offers merchandise. The lake is good size. non-motorized crafts and fishing with a license is allowed. Very peaceful place---the the disc golf I highly reccomend

The course, which opened in 1971, was designed by Russell Breeden, and is known to many as a “hidden gem.” The large TifEagle Ultradwarf greens offer a smooth, firm and fast putting surface. The tree lined 419 Bermuda grass fairways further insure that golfers of all skill levels will have a challenging as well as a fun round of golf. The signature hole, number 12, is a par 5 that requires two shots over water. Plus, the green has water on three sides and a sand bunker. The course is surrounded by forest land and an abundance of wildlife. Come join us for a very enjoyable day of golf.
