Recreation Here at Home - There is a great variety of opportunity for leisure time in the Hershey’s Mill Estates and West Chester area. I’ll highlight a few of them here but the list extends almost without limit.First, there is the swimming pool area here in the development. The pool is open from Memorial Day through Labor Day and is the hub of many activities. There is a kiddies pool that the younger children love because it is shallow with a fountain is the middle. The large pool is busy all summer long with not only swimmers but also as a focal point for pizza, hamburger and other parties on Friday nights as well as major neighborhood parties on the weekends. The Newcomers’ Party starts the season off and it ends with a final get together over the Labor Day weekend. The tennis courts are next to the pool and provide young and old with many opportunities for exercise and fun. Take a look at the Hershey's Mill Estates web site for more information and a look at the facilities.Golf – There are some wonderful golf courses in the West Chester area, both public and private. Listed below are some of the closer courses. Purchase a Tee Time golf pass and get great discounts at many of the fine courses in the area. Just click on the link below to go to their web siteSome of the public and/or semiprivate courses in the area are: Honeybrook Golf Course, Honeybrook, PA - a very nicely maintained layout in Amish country. Downingtown Golf Club, Downingtown, PA – this is a great test of golf. It has a good full service restaurant on the property. Ingleside Golf Course, Thorndale, PA – it’s more challenging than it looks, especially number 8.
East Goshen Township Park – East Goshen owns a lovely 55 acre park on Paoli Park across from the Chester County Chamber of Commerce building. It has many sports activities such as baseball, softball, soccer fields, tennis, volleyball courts as well as a 1.5 mile equipped fitness trail.
