In 1918-1920, this Park was known as a traveler's wayside; motorists could stop to have their cars serviced and enjoy a quiet picnic lunch. The Park was the forerunner of the rest areas maintained by the State Department of Transportation. Located on wooded, sandy knolls, Wharton Brook still offers solitude for a quiet, peaceful picnic.
