Apart from its inspring history, Crowleytown has numerous facilities for a great family weekend. The site offers a shaded picnic area along with grills for visitors use and a ramp for boat launching. The site is maintained as part of the Wharton State Forest.

Crowleytown was the site of the Crowleytown glassworks built by Samuel Crowley in 1851 on the edge of the Mullica river. The town consisted of the glass house, a blacksmith shop, a school, a store, and about 17 other dwellings. It was here at this factory that the first Mason Jars were developed by John Mason. The glass factory was later leased to Daniel Berlin of New York in 1857 with Samuel agreeing to purchase half of the glass products. The site was later renamed the Atlantic Glass Works and after a series of fires in the glasshouse, the property was abandoned in 1866 and fell completely back into Samuel's hands. Crowleytown was combined with Crowley's other glassworks at Bulltown to become the Burlington, Atlantic, Cape May, and Philadelphia Glass Company. Records show that the Crowleytown part of the glassworks closed down sometime around 1874 although the town remained until the 1930s. The site is now a park and a public boat ramp. Crowleytown, NJ.
