What a lovely local place to appreciate nature! Beautiful plants and flowers everywhere. Wish I'd learned of it sooner since it's so close to home. We haff a little picnic on the mansion lawn as I'd seen others do. Not crowded on a Friday late afternoon. An extra plus is that they have nice mowed or gravel trails to walk on without worrying about ticks hiding in tall grass.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

I don't understand why the Arboretum is still closed and can't seem to get an answer. I usually hike in it 3 times a week, never see a staff member, so it can't be a staffing issue. Come on - lets get this open so it can be enjoyed once again.

Yes you can have picnic. They have group picnic shelters/ tents (reservable). I am not sure if there is a fee to reserve. I would call to confirm. I would recommend to bring blanket if there is a fee and you can sit on the grass.

Why the path between Acornhall and the back door of Frelimghuysen Arboretum is close?

Liliana Gervais | Sep 27, 2020
Xiaowei Liu | Sep 27, 2020

Last time I checked about a month ago at Acornhall, the door can be open by anyone. You just need to close it after you pass it. Hope this helps
