Additionally, someone some time ago "decorated" a pine tree into a Christmas tree complete with ornaments and a manger. There's also the broken down house in the middle of nowhere. We both had fun trying to navigate and the awesome payoff was a massive powerful waterfall along the Tobyhanna Creek. We stayed a good 15 minutes just observing its greatness. If you're not careful in your step, you'll step in the mud and be S O L. You may consider hiking boots here instead of the sneakers I wore. Check out the shot videos I posted. If you like woods and a not too strenuous hiking trail steepness wise, this is a great place to check out.

I stayed in the organized group camping area and loved how the sites that we booked allowed for plenty of tents to spread out within your group. We stayed in J, K and L. Last year there were porter potties and this year there was a bathhouse. Sadly there were no showers, the family bathroom was locked all weekend, and maintence getting to the bathroom was not good. Wehad to walk through a field of knee high grass to get there. During peak tick season, this was not ideal. Lastly, quiet hours apparently do not exist this is area of camping. Groups around us were chanting and singing before 5am and had an intense volleyball match at 6am. Boyscotts camped near us and were up late screaming until 12am. There needs to be more ranger presence, this truly altered our experience. The state park itself has great hiking and swimming area but the organized group sites were very mismanaged.

The lake is stocked every year with trout and there are plenty of bass, crappies, and pan fish as well. I think boat rentals are about $20/hr. There are plenty of trails but they aren't maintained that well which is actually how I like it. Gives you somewhat of a challenge. Alcohol isn't allowed in PA state parks but if you need to wet your whistle, The Dutchman Tavern is right on Rt. 507 of you go north and Hammerjax Bar and Grill is on the end of Phillps Road about 1 mile from the park.

My family and I also enjoy picking blueberries from the bushes that line the lake.
