Fun place to visit, especially for families!

Not that much to do if you've been there a couple times already
In a nutshell
More than just the chocolate factory and amusement park
brendareed Says: Many years ago as a little girl I remember being able to tour the actual Hershey factory. Large vats of chocolate and a big souvenir packet of different kinds of chocolate are firmly established in my memory bank. Unfortunately for us today, touring the factory is not...
brendareed Says: Charlotte Hershey, wife of the chocolate company’s founder Milton Hershey, loved roses. Hershey Gardens began as a small area created by Milton so his wife could have a rose garden. Today the rose garden is 3.5 acres and sits in the middle of 23 acres of lush gardens and...
brendareed Says: I’ve been going to Hershey Park since I was a little girl…so that means about a half century of Hershey Park enjoyment! I remember the park before there were all the new modern roller coasters and it was really just the Comet, the old white wooden coaster that is still there...
brendareed Says: I’ve enjoyed the Hershey Spa twice, each time getting a chocolate massage (it’s not really chocolate, but rather chocolate scented oils). From the moment you check-in at the spa, you are pampered completely.Each time I made a reservation for my massage at a set time....
Antique Car Show and Swap Meet
grandmaR Says: The Eastern Division AACA National Fall Meet takes place each year during the 1st full week in October. The Hershey Region began hosting the show in 1955 and this year will be their 50th anniversary. We started going in about 1963 after I made contact with another 1932...
AACA Museum - A Hidden Treasure
ngates64 Says: The AACA Museum is about a mile up the road for the Hershey Entertainment Complex (where Hersheypark and Chocolate World are located). This short drive out Rte 39 gives you the opportunity to see vintage cars, motorcycles, trucks and buses in a beautiful building all set in...
PinkFloydActuary Says: I haven't been to an amusement park for quite awhile, so I didn't know what to expect. When we went, the kids were two and five, so we grabbed a map online, and went to the entrance area the night before so we could plan what rides they were the correct height for. We...
PinkFloydActuary Says: We arrived in Hershey mid-day, so we didn't want to spend money on the park for only half a day. Instead, we felt it would be nice to stretch our legs here at the Gardens. Overall, there are many things to walk around and see. Start with the various themed gardens around the...
meakosiak Says: lots of rides to choose from. the roller soaker is fun but you better try it while the sun is still bright and warm. it gets chilly with squirting water guns below and water drops just over your head. they do warn people that in every ride, make sure you've got every...
Dancing at Hershey Hotel on the weekends
Jamesever Says: This is a free and fantastic way to spend the evening for those who would like an intimate evening in a plush and sophisticated setting. Inside, you can spend an day relaxing in the pool or jacuzzi and even enjoy a massage and chocolate. Later, you can enjoy dinner in either...
RheaM Says: When you go to Hershey in the winter, the amusement park is closed, but Chocolate World is open and really fun! They have a super cute free ride that shows you how chocolate is made, it also seriously gives you a chocolate craving, but fear not! The showroom has TONS of...

the dining room, the cafe, the lounge: Dining at the Hotel Hershey
PA2AKgirl Says: I may never be able to afford to stay at the Hotel Hershey but I can certainly find it in my budget to eat or drink there:) Well, mostly drink. haha:) The hotel offers a variety of places to eat: from the dining room, the cafe, the lounge, the creamery, the "fountain" (which...
The Chocolate Avenue Grill: Chocolate + Grill = Awesome
PinkFloydActuary Says: Without a doubt, the best meal we had on our trip. I didn't really get to the "chocolate" part of the restaurant (because we didn't do dessert here), but the main courses were great. We went to dinner after a full day in the park, fortunately, the restaurant is casual. We...
A&M Pizza: "Best" Pizza in the area
PinkFloydActuary Says: This is a neat little food stop (not really in Hershey - but in neighboring Palmyra.) We made this our choice after reading it was the best pizza in the area. Well, I guess that's all relative :) You order at a counter, and they'll call your number to pick up your food (huge...
Cielo_Algaeed Says: Hershey's offer free trolley service to/from the parking lot. The area is so huge so make sure to remember the number you park your car. If not, you might find yourself roaming around and checking all the parked vehicles in the area.
Hershey Park: Chocolate, of course!
brendareed Says: What to buy in Hershey? Chocolate, of course! You can get all the current types of Hershey prepackaged chocolates as well as many yummy homemade goodies at the restaurants. Need your own “world’s largest chocolate bar”? No, problem. You can find it here (for a price!).The...
Cielo_Algaeed Says: At Hershye's Land, you can find lots of designer labels in their Outlet store. Coach, Tommy Hilfiger, Max Mara, Banana Republic etc. Their prices are really cheaper by 10 to 20% from the regular price.
grandmaR Says: With vendors in 9,000 flea market spaces, and owners of approximately 2,500 show cars plus visitors from all over the United States and many countries throughout the world the Hershey hotel and motel spaces are strained to the utmost. There are no spaces available for at...
davecallahan Says: Hershey, PA crime stats put it into the top 10% of safe places for vacationing in America.There are only 4 sex offenders registered in the greater Hershey area.The averages show less than 1 murder or rape per year. Auto Theft is the prevelant non-violent crime and even that...
Helpfulness
If you are a masochist then this is the course for you.
For $85, you can spend three hours being tortured, frustrated and having you self-esteem destroyed. It is truly humbling and humiliating to play this course unless you are better than average golfer. We duffers should avoid this course at all cost.
Even playing the short tees at 4900 yards (7100 yards for the long tees) is grueling. The whole course is up, down and all around. Narrow fairways, gorse along the edges with horrible rough up to 10 inches long; water hazards that are voracious as wild pigs hungry for your balls; greens with pin locations in 11-inch rises. And everything is so well kept that you have to believe the establishment knows they are frustrating you on purpose (no one to blame but your own poor skills).
Greens are bent grass and play fast in the summer heat.
There is a strict dress code (collared shirt, long pants or normal shorts, rubber spikes only).
Driving ranges and putting greens and chipping greens are all available for your warm up exercises.
For a once-in-a-lifetime experience, give this course a shot.
