Double Your Pleasure

Once the site of a lumbering operation, Double Trouble State Park now has a preserved historic village which includes a restored sawmill and cranberry packing and sorting house. It also has a self-guided nature trail that meanders through the Pine Barrens, across Cedar Creek and around the cranberry bogs. There's also a working cranberry farm and if you're lucky you can see the New Jersey Devil Cranberry Company at work.

Great place to Hike, bird-watch, canoe and picnic.

Located southwest of Toms River on the edge of the New Jersey Pine Barrens,
