    I really like this place there's a lot of good history there and most of it is free. The couple dollar video is worth it. This is right in the middle of a whole lot of great walking paths

    What a great place! Very cool! I love the historical preservation here!

    The parking lot is directly across the street from the museum section of the grounds here. The parking lot is paved and there seems to be many spaces, although if there's an event there or a reenactment going on then the parking lot would be considered pretty small.

    There's a neat walkway in front of the museum that they've lined with the 13 original state flags and the original/ fiest US flag that Betsy Ross created.

    The museum was made pretty cool. Wide open spaces throughout, many places to sit and look out the large glass windows to watch the Delaware River where Washington crossed over. There's a small gift store. There are nice restrooms. And then a section that's a museum...old guns, old housing items from the time, old medical devices used during battles, old beds, an old desk. It was nice to see all those things preserved.

    Outside, there's an engraved rock that marks that land as the place where Washington crossed the Delaware River. We were informed that the placement of the rock actually changes over the years so where ever you see the rock doesn't mark the exact spot where he first stepped onto shore in PA. But it's still pretty cool to see it marked as being on the grounds. There is a stairway that takes you to the water, again since he crossed over before any of us we're alive, the exact spot is unknown but it was fun to walk down to the river.

    There's also many old homes/ buildings that have been preserved and you can walk on a paved walkway from the museum and see them. There's also an old boat that Washington would've crossed in. That was cool to see. I didn't walk the length of the path, it crosses another street and keeps going. Maybe someday.

    Reenactments. Apparently they do the Washington crossing reenactment on Christmas Eve since that's the night he actually crossed the river. Anyone can come and watch. I'm sure it's freezing so bundle up. We we're I formed that they do rehearsals the week prior and that's where you can meet some of the people and they open the buildings for you to see inside and watch how people used to do things back then. Some of those fun things aren't open the night of the reenactment so sounds like the rehearsals might actually be more interactive and fun.

    Great place. Beautiful grounds.

    We loved it here. So quiet and serene. It's amazing to go walk on the bridge and overlook the river. We loved it here in fall season and can't wait to see it in spring time again!
    Must visit if you love nature and long walks :)

    I am so glad that they have updated the museum on the park grounds. Such a noble and ominous event in the history of our country was embarked upon from these very shores. It is so nice to see an exhibit that exemplifies and amplifies the magnanimity of the historic Crossing. The presence of this historic offering ennobles the American soul. Do not come to this area without stopping here, your Patriot heart depends on it.

    History aside (which you can learn through the small museum and historic buildings) this park is wonderful for strolling alone, with someone, or with someone and your dogs. My dogs love drinking (and sitting in) the creek waters. They do have tent sites and I often see young families having wonderful times here.
