to the sand dunes along the sandy beaches of Delaware Bay.  As Fern Road ends, you will see a little curvy pIt is a quick .2 mile walk to the sand.  Enjoy!

If you still want the pretty, beachy views but prefer level sidewalks over sandy paths, then a stroll down Shore Road/Beach Drive in Town Bank is the place to go.  You can get there from the beach (above), or a 12-minute walk via local streets.  

Out our front door, make a left onto Fern. another left onto Bayshore Drive (which is quickly renamed Clubhouse Drive), and a right onto Pinewood Rd.   Pinewood Rd will end at Shore Rd, again on the shores of Delaware Bay.

Cox Hall Creek Wildlife Management Area (WMA)

 is one of South Jersey’s best-kept secrets - and it is only a short walk from your vacation home!

If you want to put some miles on, take a walk (or run, or bike ride) through this WMA.  Set on a former golf course, the buildings are long gone, and the land has been replaced with a variety of natural growth. Markers provide interesting information about the wildlife and nature you may see. Maps are provided to help you navigate the many former golf cart trails.

Pine forests, open fields, ponds, and marshes abound.  Some paths are paved, and some are hard-packed dirt.  Some trails provide shade and some allow you to soak up the sun.  Miles of opportunities and a variety of trails will help you enjoy a new and different path each time you visit.  Leashed dogs are also welcome!

Go right out the front door, then make a left onto Bybrook Drive. Walk 7 short blocks to the entrance of the Ponderlodge Parking Lot on the right (it is slightly hidden by a turn and natural growth, tucked away between two homes). 

Getting to Cox Hall Creek WMA is a 2-minute car or bike ride, or a 10-minute walk.
