But I've been coming to this state park for years, especially for kayaking and birding. One summer we decided to keep kayaking until we had explored the entire perimeter of the lake. It took several trips, but we never finished because the lake is too vast. There's a great mix of vendors for rentals, food and boat rides, but there are still plenty of wild spaces to enjoy. Whether it's sailing, hiking, swimming, or kayaking, you will find some great recreational opportunities here.

A generous amount of well kept up restrooms throughout the park. We started at a cabin that was modern and good looking. Each cabin sleeps six.

We were aware so we brought a press for coffee. Great park for families.

There are also soccer and baseball fields as well as shelters for picnics. I wasn't at North Boundary Park for any of that. I was only there on a cold fall morning to take advantage of the "hiking trail" loop around the fields. I put quotation marks around the words hiking and trail because I don't know how much of a hike I consider it due to the entire trail being paved. It's just over a mile in length with some elevation. Regardless, I found it to be an easy to find suburban community park where I felt safe to wander around when there were maybe only two other people wandering the trail. I also found it clean and well maintained. Park hours are posted as 7am - 11pm. There are 2018 plans for a disc golf course and a nature trail that I'm hoping will lead into the actual wooded area (and maybe into some more challenging terrain). I'll check out the park again once the trail is complete.

This is a nice place for heliophiles, walkers, runners, soccer players, and swimmers. There is a…read moreloop that's almost 100% unshaded and a mile long. You can traverse it in either direction, just remember to stay to the right (unless your passing). Inside the loop is a ball field, a few soccer fields, a playground, an outdoor body weight gym, and a large swimming facility with various types of entertainment. There are also a couple shelters with picnic tables underneath, that I assume you can rent for maybe a private party. There are a few restroom facilities with a water fountain as well. Half of the park is wooded and there is a approved plan in place to create an 18 hole disc golf course. The course is supposed to be top tier, compared on a national level. With a planned average of 588 feet per hole, I'm sure it will attract lot skilled talent and probably a competition or two in the first year. If you're new to disc golf, there is a handicapped accessible recreational course planned with six holes, averaging about 175 ft per hole, respectfully. One of the only thing I don't really like about the park is a portion of the paved trail butts up to the road. There is no space or physical barrier between you and cars passing by.

My husband and I came here for the day and were pleasantly surprised…read more It is $5 per person to get in. Food They have a snack bar with the typical food you would expect (hotdogs, nachos, pretzels, popcorn) you can purchase a cup and/or a popcorn bucket for $5 a piece and get refills all summer for $1. Pool The pool is amazing! Perfect place to bring children with two kids areas. The have a small rock climbing wall in the deep end by the diving boards. Three slides, one of which is very tall. Children 12 and under can take a swim test to be allowed to swim in the deep end and go on the diving boards and rock climbing wall. You are allowed to bring floating things like noodles etc. which was really nice. You can only bring goggles that don't have the nose part (scuba goggles?) regular goggles are okay. The deep end is 5ft and the diving area is 12ft. I believe I saw that they rent out life vests for children and they also sell swimming diapers. Adult Swim Depending on how you feel about this it will either be good or bad. At the start of every hour they make all of the children get out of the pool for 15 minutes. The only people allowed in the pool are adults and children under 5 who are accompanied by an adult within arms reach. Seating They have chairs that you can use with foot rests and little tables but you have to get here pretty early to get one unless you see someone leaving you can take theirs. I would recommend bringing chairs and blankets to sit and relax on. There is plenty of space to spread out and not be right next to someone else on the grass. They have a few covered areas that you can set up at if there is space left. They also have 2 covered picnic table areas with 4 picnic tables (although I'm sure those fill up fast) Parks We don't have children so we didn't go to the parks but it looked like there was a lot to do and that it was well maintained. Crowds We went on a Sunday and there were a lot of people there but it didn't feel "crowded". We had to wait in line to get snacks but when we wanted a drink or popcorn refill there was a separate line which was nice. Conclusion- we will defiantly be back it was a great day!

The lunch was provided by their onsite food truck guys in the parking lot, "Your Momma's Kitchen" which had very good food. Burgers/Fries/Chicken sandwiches were the norm. Moving on to outside, Scott got us fitted for helmets and goggles and had us pick our machine, we chose the 2-seater model and got settled. There were 5 rentals in our tour that day, (2) 2-seaters and (3) 4-seaters, plus Scott in the lead. After getting everyone outfitted, Scott got us all together and gave a quick rundown of what we were going to do, what to expect, as well as a quick safety brief. He asked everyone on the tour what their experience level was and talked with us all about the machines. The tour was off and going up, down, and through the hills was completely awesome. It had rained the night before so the trails were just right for slipping, sliding, and having great fun. Luckily, we wore rain gear for the trip, and I will tell you this: I will take mud on the clothes over eating dust all day. The rain was a welcome addition to the trails for us. Over the course of the trip, Scott would stop the tour, provide water or bathroom breaks, and give us history about the place. It was just a few minutes each time, but it was a welcome break. The Mine Tour came after lunch. We all lined up and drove through after Scott. It is surprisingly cool in there, 55 degrees no matter the temp outside he said. We stopped halfway through the tour inside the mine, gathered all the units together and we shut off all the lights.... complete and utter darkness all around. He kept talking through it, giving us some history on the mine and how far in we were. Luckily the lights went on before anyone really freaked out and we got on our way. Getting back to base, we posed for pics and thanked everyone. You leave your dirty helmets on a bench and walk away from your mud-covered machine; they clean it all for you. We washed our boots and took off our rain gear, we were good to go for the car ride back. All in all, we would totally do this again. We were in from California and this was a great way to spend half a day in the hills; tearing ass through the mud, gassing it up the hills and ripping through water puddles. The trails are pretty well maintained; some have ruts but most do not. Heck, what do you expect with 100 people a day riding and tearing it up? Good water spots to go through, some good long straightaways to get up some speed, and hairpin turns to slow you down. We didn't hit any jumps that day; that's probably a different insurance form to fill out. LOL Things to bring: - Riding attire/gloves or a change of clothes. You will get muddy. - Phone for pics and music. The side by sides have Bluetooth, so if you want to listen to music as you tear through the hills, it's available. The music is nice for a bit, but hearing that engine rev up as you run up a hill is music to my ears. - A rag or cloth to clean your goggles; they get pretty muddy - GoPro with mount if you want to record your adventure. All in all, it's a must for me if I ever return to Pennsylvania. They were professional, in good communication before and after the tour, and to me, well worth the money. Scott (our guide) really made the trip what it was for us. His attitude was awesome, and he obviously loves his job. Thank you Scott for a great day!
