Grounds For Sculpture is a 42-acre sculpture park and museum located in Hamilton, NJ, United States, on the former site of the New Jersey State Fairgrounds. Wikipedia
The grounds are beautiful with lots of landscaping and water.
There is also a place to eat called Ratz ( a little pricy) I like their happy hours.
