I try to return there every few years. It's a great place to take friends and family. Especially for the boating experience. The people that operate Seven Points Marina have always been pleasant to work with, knowledgeable, helpful, and kind. Safety is their foremost concern. I'm certain, God willing, that I will be returning again and again. :-) Everything about the 90HP pontoon boat rental was fun and as expected, but not without a few "glitches." The fuel gauge did not work (it was stuck significantly over the Full mark) which resulted in me returning to the dock to determine how much fuel I had used for the first half of the day. They topped off the tank and then I could gauge how much I was using and that I would not run dry for the balance of the day. I cannot understand why I was charged $17.24 more for the total cost for the day than the total of the invoice plus the 3% credit card fee that I agreed to. I'm reading in some other reviews that there may have been a 5% online booking fee that was not itemized and I don't remember reading about when I placed the booking. The receipt for the online booking that was emailed to me was not itemized and does not have the details necessary. But on the other hand, I knew that the rental was going to cost me close to $500 plus the cost of the gas that I used. Nevertheless, my guests and I had a wonderful time.

The place up the street where I just bought the boat let me leave for a two hour drive back to Maryland with no trailer lights or safety chains connected or any basic advice on trailering the boat (like not being able to back up the trailer without a pin to lock the brake actuator- who knew?). The man who helped me at Shy Beaver knew. He was extremely nice and patient with me. He taught me a lot and I think he genuinely wanted to see me leave there safe. After getting my chains hooked up He even pieced my wiring together so it worked. He wouldn't even let me pay him. I really owe him more than I can write here. It turns out he was the Business Manager. Enzo Marin thank you very much for your help.

They have been excellent to work with throughout the process and have exceed all my expectations. This was my first "new" boat and I customed ordered it. Brandon walked me through the entire process and has gone above and beyond to make sure things went smooth.

He immediately said he would go cover it for me on his own time! I have a small business and it's all about customer service to me. Indian Lake Marina shares this sentiment and I would recommend this place to anyone. Thank you all for taking care of me and making this a great experience. I really appreciate it. Jesse M.

The space is scenic with a view of the water, and it's cozy as well with couches, chairs, and picnic tables. During cooler temps, firepits are an option.

Growing up in an area, you never really understand what you have until you move away. You may have…read morethought that this was so boring to come here. You may think why are we going here. But when you move away, and come back for a visit, you want to revisit the area. First and foremost, nobody from this area ('locals' as the out-of-towners say) refers to this as Prince Gallitzin, Prince Gallitzin State Park, or PGSP. So stop it, it's not cute. We simply refer to it as Glendale. Yes, that is the name of the lake, but it is so much more simply to say Glendale than any form/combination you can come up with. The 'locals' here have it right, and you will not win an argument about it. What is appealing about this place is the many things you can do. Camping, swimming, boating, fishing, hiking, feed the deer, playgrounds, grilling, I could keep going. I spent many weekends here camping (to note: I am not a camper). With that, it was like I memorized a good portion of this park. When you camp, you hike, when you hike, you stumble upon a lot of the park. But, it is nearly impossible to see the whole park by foot, you will need a vehicle of some sort. The shoreline of the lake is 26 miles long. But there are so many more things to do in this area. Headache Hill is a favorite. Nothing more than a water tank tower on top of a highpoint. When open, you can climb the water tower and view the park in every direction. Uninterrupted views. The marina is a highlight. The "beach" is another highpoint. There can technically be a lot of beaches here. Be sure to check out the Killbuck Boat Ramp area. You can rent boats here to go out on the lake. You can also launch your boat here (one of very many places to do so). This is also where you can feed the deer. It is almost like clockwork. But be very aware of your surroundings. Feeding deer can draw other wildlife and a bear or two have been spotted here. If geocaching is your thing. There area a ton in the area. Hungry, check out Pirates Cove for sure, whether you want a meal or sweet treat. There are tons to do here. Not far from towns to grab items, it can serve as a nice little getaway. And please remember, it's Glendale.

(To show how much Yelping means to me, our visit here was in January of '21 and I'm just getting…read morearound to thinking about this now.  Obviously I forget way more than I remember.) Who was Prince Gallitzin and why does he have a state park named after him? If you're so inclined feel free to skim this wiki on the Apostle of the Alleghenies. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demetrius_Augustine_Gallitzin PGSP is another creation of the late great Dr. Maurice Goddard who aspired to have a state park within 25 miles of every PA resident. He never reached that goal but he did add 45 parks during his decades long stint in state government including PGSP which was formally dedicated in 1965. So what's here? In the trademark of a lot of western PA state parks, not much and that's the beauty of it. I mean sure you can camp, glamp, hunt, fish, boat, hike, fart, etc. but there is also a loooooooooooot of quiet. elibrary.dcnr.pa.gov/GetDocument?docId=1737338&DocName=PRGA_ParkGuide.pdf What else do I remember: - We stayed in one of the ten cabins by the marina. Three of them allow dogs and obviously those book fairly far in advance especially on weekends. We stayed over a cold as hell weekend in January but I still needed to make the reservation two months out or else there would have been no availability. On the other side of Glendale Lake there are tons of spaces for camping year round but I don't camp so I can't testify about that. - If you need to pick up your cabin keys after the park office closes, head to the office and inside the foyer there are ten cubbies where they put the keys and a welcome/rules/map packet. Note that unless the process has changed, the email you get after you make a reservation does not mention this. Either you know, you guess or you'll have no clue. - IME, there is zero Internet capabilities in the cabins. Maybe that depends on the carrier but at the time, on T-Mobile, it was zip. - There are tons of houses selling firewood all around the area. I'm sure the park sells it somewhere but we bought a good bit from a stand a few miles away. - If you need provisions, there isn't much in the area. The town of Patton is ten minutes away and it has a Sheetz and one small store but past that you're probably going 30 minutes to Altoona for something more substantive. - The cabins are very, very nice. Full kitchens, good heating, nice enough bathrooms and it's usually a full bed with sets of bunks. - It snowed a few inches overnight and the park had their maintenance staff out salting and plowing the entrance roads very early in the morning which is good as most are narrow and winding. Overall the park is very nice. Lots of space/trails to spread out and explore on and the peaceful quiet is intoxicating. This one is definitely on our radar for a visit in the near future.
