Deer Creek characterize this park, which is located in an area once inhabited by Susquehannock Indians. A gigantic rock outcropping, soaring several hundred feet above the creek, is called the King and Queen Seat. The creek is very popular for fishing and tubing. Nestled in a natural saddle created by Evitts Mountain and Martin Mountain, this park offers mountain scenery and interesting hiking trails. Three swimming beaches and a modern bathhouse adjoin a 243-acre lake and a large campground.
Some sites are available with electric hookups, some allow pets, and youth group camping is offered.
