Ballyowen

Reception at 6 PM Saturday  

Aye laddie, you might be hearing the pipes welcoming you. 

Getting there from Christ Church involves going straight back North on 94 about 11 miles.  Wheatsworth Rd will be on your right.  Ballyowen is a little more than a mile up Wheatsworth on your right (if you are coming from the south).  Look for small discrete club driveway entrance.

Its about a 25 minute drive so take your time leaving Newtown for the drive up.

If you go back to the Crystal Spring resort properties after the wedding, follow 94 all the way back.  It will take you about 35 minutes. From the end of Crystal Springs (Appalachian Hotel) its about a 15 minute drive back south again  to Ballyowen.

Crystal Springs resorts to Ballyowen

A shuttle bus will run from the hotel properties to the reception and back again that night.  The schedule hasn't been set yet but expect it to visit Black Creek Sanctuary and Mineral Springs before the reception.  Riding is encouraged as its country roads and dark after sunset.

Bring your dancing shoes and your best moves.  Its a great place to celebrate

Places To Eat (Breakfast/Lunch)

These are recommendations from local residents.  These could be great choices for breakfast or even a lunch.  They are in Vernon Township which is North on 94, a couple of minutes past the Appalachian

Lox of Bagels

Place By The Tracks

Mixing Bowl

Here are comments:

As for breakfast there is one place in town in the complex of the A&P. It is called "Lox of Bagels." Yelp Lox of Bagels  They have the best Taylor ham bacon egg and cheese on an everything bagel in all of Northern New Jersey. 

One alternative that is about a mile away from lox of bagels, is called "Place by the Tracks." Either place will give you a great breakfast, but neither have much seating for a large group, so you would have to order and pick it up. 

The only place I would recommend that could hold a large group would be a place right near the mountain called "The Mixing Bowl". Yelp Mixing Bowl
