Great park. Clean. Pretty. Well marked trails. No cell reception. Download maps before going.

Easy hiking trails and decent views. Definitely a great place to set up a hammock and just vibe.

Nice 3 mile loop to hike (map says 2?) with a great payoff at king and queen seat rocks. Also a quick ride up the road will get you to a nice waterfall

A small but excellent state park. Great scenery, good hiking, and many interesting places to check out. Swimming and tubing are popular on the larger creek, though there are rapids that should be avoided (powerful slot rapids that have a history of causing drownings, though they would be fun for a short white water course (very short though)). Good accommodations for a picnic or even a cookout. There is an old man made structure on one side of the creek that looks like it is either a bridge support or a foundation for a small structure (unlikely, but almost looks like a watch tower now); still trying to figure out it's origin/purpose/history, maybe part of a mill.

The dialsapointing part..i put my last 1.67 in gas for my scooter to drive 22 miles to get there and he would not cut me a break. Thats why the next time im there.

Down by the falls along Rt 24 there are picnic areas and you do see people in the water. There are Park Rangers there to help you out with more info.

Can you still go Tubing? When is tubing done for the year?

Rich Sanchez | Sep 18, 2020

You can still go tubing. The park is open year round, however, the water temperature will soon be too cold for tubing. Please keep in mind that we do not rent or sell tubes at the park, and there is no designated area for tubing.

Is there any place nearby to rent or purchase a tube for floating down the river?

Not near here.
