Wyckoff Dock Site
Along these creekside banks, a summer afternoon in 1916 changed Matawan—and American pop culture—forever. The setting is tranquil today, but the story here inspired one of cinema's greatest thrillers.

This stately mansion has stood witness to daring plans and revolutionary courage. The spirit of independence lingers across it's centuries-old woodwork and massive chimneys.
Ryer House
Elegant and bold, this Main Street landmark grabs attention with it's vibrant hues and grand design. Once home to powerful merchants, today it stands as a reminder of Matawan's golden era of architecture and ambition.
Mount Pleasant Cemetery
Wander beneath ancient trees to a site where Matawan's earliest settlers and Revolution veterans rest. The stones here whisper tales of courage, unrest, and community spirit from ages past.

So much fun and not pricey at all. Did it with a group including kids. They had fun too. We will for sure do more hunts in the future.

It was good family fun. Great that you can pause to have lunch etc. was fairly easy but didn’t initially realise clues had time limits - hence missed out! Would definitely do another elsewhere.
