Reader Testimonials
I deeply believe that people experience print media differently than digital media. I do not find sitting with a cup of coffee and a lap top remotely relaxing or introspective — I tend to mindlessly jump from one link to the next and my 'reading' is puddle-deep and somewhat ADHD. Whereas when I pick up the Skylands Visitor in print I actually read it through cover to cover and use it to plan things that I want to do and see. One is like a little 'mini-vacation' for the soul and the other is just like everything else digital — drinking a mass of new information from a firehose…
I just want to compliment you on your wonderful magazine that I also get online. It is so informative, so enjoyable and I look forward to reading all of it.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I just have to write and let you folks know that this site is excellent. It's well designed, very comprehensive, easy to navigate, creative, inclusive and visual. I stumbled across it six or so months ago, have bookmarked it, and keep coming back. My husband and I have taken so many trips, drives, adventures based on the info and maps on your site. So...often times we just complain.
I wanted to let you know how good your site is and I wish every county/state had a website as good as skylands.
If there are awards out there for best website - then I nominate NJskylands.com. Great work - love it....keep it up. You're heads above and far beyond any website out there.
I recently discovered this website and love it.
Thank you for opening my eyes to some of the amazing places so close to home.
I've lived here for 8 years and think I've seen more great nature in the last couple months than ever before. I look forward to discovering even more beautiful scenery as the seasons change. You all have done an excellent job with the website, maps and detail offered and I am happy to recommend this website and the places you list to my friends and family. With gratitude, Puja Minotti
We have lived in Clinton Township since 1964 and saw things in your beautiful magazine we never knew were close by.
Hi, We've been in touch before (one of these years I would enjoy writing a piece for you) and I had to send you this email right now. Skylands as magazine and weekly update is a joy! Descriptions of activities are tantalizing and geographically covers just enough territory to make any excursion probable and possible. Thank you.
NJSkylands: I have been aware of your magazine for a few years but have only been a subscriber for about a year now. It is a wonderful little magazine and always has interesting stories about a very spectacular area of New Jersey.
These folks in NW New Jersey should feel very lucky, it is a lovely area and can compete scenery wise with any state in the union. I live just outside West Chester, PA in Chester County which is also a very nice area but Skylands beats it !
Best regards, Guy Lisowski

We're getting too old to drive to New Jersey, and I hate being tempted by your e-mails. Please remove me from your mailing list.

Advertiser Testimonials
Dollar for dollar, this publication has performed better than anything else I have ever tried,
including local, regional and national magazines and newspapers of all shapes and sizes. Qualified customers, who would never have known that my shop existed, continually walk through my door as a result of my ad in the SKYLANDS VISITOR. These people include visitors to New Jersey from all around the country, as well as residents of the state whose curiosity about our little corner in Frenchtown has been stimulated. The important thing is that most of these people have come ready to spend money in my shop. -- Ron Kobli, Decoys and Wildlife Gallery
I see the click thru's to various websites I maintain, and from your site, so
I know what you are doing is working.
That is important since I am always spending someone else's money and need to report back to them. -- Giulia Iannitelli, Innovative Marketing Designs
Just wanted to let you know how pleased we were with Skylands coverage of our Pathways event. You made the process very easy for us and the results speak for themselves. -- Jennifer Coltas, event coordinator
For the Kutztown Folk Festival we received 1034 coupon returns from Skylands Visitor. That was the best coupon return for any of the 22 magazines we advertise in. The next best coupon return for magazines was 356. That is quite amazing. You obviously have a very well-regarded magazine for people looking to go on excursions, etc. within the area of New Jersey you cover as well as outside into Pennsylvania. Thanks. -- Joe Byrne, Byrne Advertising & Design, Blandon, PA
To Whom It May Concern at NJ Skylands.com: This is to extend our heartfelt thanks to you for featuring The Museums at Drakesville Historic Park in your event promotions last month. Here in Ledgewood we usually don't draw visitors from outside our local area, but for our April 8th opening, happily, that was not the case. First of all we had at least double the usual number of visitors for our April opening, and those visitors spent a great deal of time in our museums and certainly seemed to enjoy the experience. When we queried them as to where they had heard about us, they replied "NJ Skylands website."
The Roxbury Historic Trust, Inc, comprises a small group of dedicated volunteers who curate and manage the King Store and King House Museums. Our efforts and our financial resources are all directed to the preservation and historically accurate renovation of our two old buildings (and we're proud that both are on the New Jersey and National Registers of Historic Places.) Having a banner day of interested visitors who appreciated and enjoyed our site was a very big deal for us.
Thank you, New Jersey Skylands!!
Kindest regards, Mary Ann Dudak, Secretary to the Board of Trustees Roxbury Historic Trust, Inc.
