Reviews of New Jersey Audubon's Scherman Hoffman Wildlife Sanctuary (Zoo)

Bill Scullion

Great gift shop. I bought a scope and some books.

Robert Machover

Best birding store in the area.

Kristi MacDonald

Great preserve for a walk, my son loved the nature camp and I enjoy the presentations and workshops. Also, the shop is a great place to get bird seed, nature guides, children's nature themed books and bird/bat houses.

Great place for birding and hiking. Woods, fields, and hills with the head Waters of the Passiac River flowing through it. Site of NJ Aububon HQ. Nice store, very active bird feeder. Great place to buy binoculars.

few people hike here great place for a river walk we take our dogs and they love the hike it can be a one hour loop through Cross Estate or there are short cuts trail map does not show all trails dogs should be on leash and if they're not, watch out for Rangers up at Cross Estate parking lot Audubon officially doesn't allow dogs, but so long as dogs (and their owners) are well-behaved. ..seems to not be an issue happy trails!

Edward Kelly

Lots of great products and extensive observation trails

So far when I've visited here, I've only explored their trails - of which there are a lot! I haven't yet been able to join events hosted here or see the visitor center, but certainly hope to soon. The Audubon Society here keeps a lot of bird feeders and a variety of birdhouses on the premises, allowing you to catch glimpses of all sorts of cuties - sparrows, robins, bluebirds, warblers, wrens, and swallows, just to name a few. I love visiting here and will be back often!

Nice trails but not well marked at all! Once in a while you will see a tree with spray paint of a color, but I only saw two-three on a trail. A shame bc it would be a great place.

Jennifer Puleo

Great trials and sites!

Brian Boden

A nice hiking and educational destination, and the store has great products including the best bird seed Beyond any from grocery stores or even Pet Shops. A very pleasant and Cooperative staff. Any weird capitalization or Punctuation here is my smart phone, not me!

Great facility with a wonderful purpose. We just joined last week and attended our 1st educational event yesterday, and were very impressed with the knowledge their naturalist, Dorothy, shared with us.

Informative visit. Beautiful surroundings. The staff was extremely helpful in explaining the history,location, and activities available.

Quite hiking trails. Even if you can't hike visit the gift shop and sit indoors and watch the bird feeders. Great friendly staff.

R. Spae

Tranquility on steroids.

Jeanne Rago

Such a lovely place for a walk, or to sit & listen, leaving the stress of the world in the parking lot. Great birdseed, photographs, books & other items for sale in the gift shop.

I Was Here recently for a meeting of a local photo Club so I can't speak much about the facility itself. I was there once many many years ago and I remember that the people were very helpful and they had nice walking trails. I can't say what the condition of the trails are right now because I was there at night. But I would like to go back there during the day and see what they have to offer

Amy Andreola

Great place to visit. Mostly outdoor but some indoor areas, plus a gift shop. Wonderful for class trips!

The river trail is lots of fun with kids.

As a novice birder back in Jan. 1994, I sited two magnificent birds, the Pileated Woodpecker and the Barred Owl. It was a wonderful experience at the sanctuary.
