The city has beautiful beaches, with sand castle sculpture contested, pumpkins on the pier, paddle board lessons, biking and walking trails and so much more. We recently got into pickle ball because MILFORD just put in 8 courts at Eisenhower park. You’ll never run out of things to do in this town. "
