In turn, the bucolic tree-lined paths that run along the Raritan Canal Park and Nature Preserve, and which are perfect for walking, jogging, and biking, are a mere one-minute drive away. In addition, the local neighborhood of Somerset, New Jersey abounds in supermarkets, restaurants, banks with ATMs, shopping malls, coffee shops, etc.
