Love what they did to the entrance, parking area, and visitor center since the last time we were here. The center was closed since we were there late in the day. Closed at 5pm. Plenty of parking on the upper and lower lots. Views of Pine Creek Gorge (PA Grand Canyon)!were wonderful. Pictures are of the upper lot. Bathrooms in the upper parking lot and entrance way to the gorge (toward left of building). They are older but were clean. Worth the drive if in Wellsboro area.

Did a short day trip here from our camp site and had a fun time. They have different level trail and amazing views to be had. Definitely something that can be done with the family or by yourself.

Best park I've been to in PA! The views are amazing, the hike is challenging but very fun and the campground was super clean. This is a wonderful place that everyone who enjoys the outdoors should visit!

Beautiful park to really take in all the views of the canyon. There’s a really nice observation deck that gradually lowers into other deck areas so you can get a full view at all different angles.

One of our favorite spots in Northern Pennsylvania. This Tioga county grand Vista is absolutely amazing. As you look over the thousands of acres of State Park and watch the leaves blow up following the canyon draft, it’s absolutely amazing. with facilities for every need, lots of hiking trails, a visitor center with excellent bathrooms. This is one of our favorite places.

Beautiful area, there are tons of trails and the views go on for miles. It was a little hazy when we went so I felt like there wasn't as much perspective depth but we still loved it. Very accessible at some points and we will be back soon. Do a little research first to figure out where you want to start but the options are plentiful.

This is a free park so I can't be too upset with some of the changes they made. However the parking lot changes where they chop down all of the trees around the parking lot and change the layout of the parking lot and move all the parking a little bit further away from the park was in my honest opinion a poor decision. I don't know if there's new management there or what, but even the gift shop seems lesser and I'm not sure if there's even possible to get any kind of drinks or snacks up there. Every time I go I can't get anything to drink from like a booth. There used to be a wonderful food truck here that sold Maple related products and maple syrups, however the management here decided they did not want to renew the contract so that's not even an option anymore and to me that was kind of like one of the little highlights of this park. A couple years ago this park was absolutely amazing wonderful and perfect but now I feel like something else has changed, whether it be new management or a change in the times but this isn't what it used to be. There are some great well-maintained trails here especially the turkey trail and the overlook trail is pretty good as well. I feel like they need to cut back some of the trees that are up near the viewing platform so you can see more of the surrounding area.

Beautiful old school state park, well kept. Turkey path was great hike down into the gorge, with views of a lovely waterfall. We also did the Rim trail, which connects some tremendous vistas - it just took us awhile to figure out that the Rim trail was actually a loop, and different from the West Rim trail which is not a loop. Overall, a fantastic time there!

This park is loaded with trails. The Colton point side of the canyon is a true state park. You just have nature and nature activities to do. There is so much hiking so many beautiful views in the park is well maintained with great roads and lots of parking. There is also plenty of trash cans and outhouses to use.

This is a really great park that I definitely recommend visiting. There are tons of trails that you can hike, and plenty of pavilions for barbecues and parties. I didn't see any places to dispose of hot coals though. Anyways, this place is worth having its own journey. Hope you have fun like I did!

I hiked the rim trail - it was advertised as 1 mile but it was definitely 1.5 miles and some parts are not labeled and very muddy. All the 3 overlooks on the rim trail are reachable by car and have parking spots nearby, so you can drive to see it instead of hike it. In my opinion, the first overlook when you first get to the park is really the only good one worth a picture. There is no park office and no spot to get a stamp in your passport. You need to drive to Leonard Harrison for the stamp. I drove around looking, but hopefully I can save someone else the time. The campground looked primitive with boxes to put your tent, and you pay by the honor system: envelope in a locked box.

I was visiting from New York just for 2 days, one night. It is super pretty, however I will say its not very well marked as for what trails are where. When I was driving down, I had no idea where to go, so I just chose a spot on the western side of the canyon. I soon found out that there was only a trail down to the bottom of the canyon and then interweaving trails closer to the northern end of the gorge. My first day was just me guessing at where I thought I wanted to go. My AirBnb was on the eastern side of the gorge, so I drove over there later in the day. I found out that that side is the more touristy area, which is the side that everyone gets pictures on, and I also believe it has the 7-mile trail (don't quote me, as you can tell I was confused this whole trip lol). I didn't get to do any trails on the eastern side, just take pictures of the canyon. Overall, I might visit again with my parents to show them around, but it's definitely not a place you can spend more than two days at.

This is a great viewing area of Pine Creek Gorge. My favorite spot. Across the road is a spot to park several cars. From the parking area you can walk the short trail that takes you to a port-a-pot.

Quiet location to view the PA Grand Canyon. There are 3 viewpoints. Our favorite was the Pine Creek view.

Great access to the trail from the parking area. Nice restrooms. However, the ride to the parking lot is a one mile unpaved wooded road down the hill. Only for a four wheel drive vehicle. Very steep but once you get down to the bottom the parking area is wonderful.

Good place to picnic, access the trail or fish. Clean bathrooms and lots of shady spots to lounge along the river. Parking seems sufficient keep in mind it's not paved.

Great place to park and ride the rail trail if you have a 4x4 or AWD vehicle. Headed north to turkey falls and found barely any spots to access the creek along the way. Campground bathrooms were gross. Flies and bugs were absolutely terrible would suggest not staying at campground late summer

Great history here. Camping is allowed. Please remember there are lots of people on the trail.

Nice place for access with hiking and biking nearby

Quiet lil campground, off pine creek so good place to rest or,camp while rafting or kayaking.

Amazing for bike riding. Loved it.

My husband and I are from Bernville, Pa. We exchanged our vows in 2005. For our Anniversary we decided to reserve the Tioga Brunch Train ride. So much more than we expected. Brunch on the train had linens on the tables, silverware, china plates , cups, glass water glasses. Everything was fine dining. We were very impressed with table setting and brunch meal. Turkey Club Sandwich on rye, chips, pickles, cherry cobbler for dessert all served on China. Choice of Hot Coffee, Hot Tea, Orange or Cranberry Juice all served in juice glass, water in glass gobblet. The train ride and view was breathtaking. Our most amazing and memorable anniversary. Thank You, John and Karen

This was our second year taking the train ride. We enjoyed the regular ride last year so we upgraded to the dinner ride this year. The meal and service was acceptable if not inspired. My main complaint was the entertainment. Some duo called take2. It's not that their playing was bad, but I practically had to scream for my wife sitting next to me to hear me. Mood music should be played softly. Not at full blast. Finally after dinner we escaped to the open air car and the rest of the ride was perfection

We have been on the train 2 years ago, the food was great then!! We went today! There was no easy way for a person with disabilities to wait, they had to stand in line with walkers; standing for about 30 minutes to board!! Our menu stated: Brined and Smoked Pork Tenderloin on a Bed of Kraut With Stout Mustard Sauce, Served With Bratwurst and Potato Hash We had one slice of Pork, with a little gravy, not on a bed of Kraut, no mustard sauce, I had about 1 teaspoon of kraut, with a half of a bratwurst; potatoes were tasteless, salt did not help!! A serving of very cold string beans! You get a glass of ice tea or lemon aide, that was serve before the salad, nobody came back to fill the glass until after the main course! We then receive our cheesecake, which was sheet cake style, not like the New York cheese cake, we got 2 years ago. you could have cherry or blueberry topping, with a teaspoon of whip cream on top! It was a little over cooked! Coffee was served 15 minutes after the dessert! Only great thing about dinner was the couple we met at the table, very nice!! The train itself needed to have the windows clean, and the shade, someone lower to blocked the sun was terrible! If you go for just the train ride, it is beautiful, to see the fall foliage!!

Ride was fun to spend time with family. View was ok. The food was good, but precooked as it probably has to be. The service was nice. We were next to screaming kids which I understand is out of their hands, it was just a little loud.

We found the entire experience to be very disappointing. We expected a quaint experience and it was anything but. The exterior of the trains are filthy and the dining car was tacky (rug falling off the wall). We expected to be taken through bucolic farm country and instead the train basically followed the highway passing many unkempt houses. The staff did a great job and the food was good.

This train ride description is extremely misleading. My husband and I went on this train with our two small children. First, if you sit on the right side of the train expect to see Pennsylvania countryside and a lake. If you're on the left side of the train expect to see other train cars, old houses, then more train cars, then the road. Wait! You think you will get a better view on the way back, right? Ha- NO! The guy stops the train, gets out and walks to the back of the train, which is now the front and drives it back again. So, we get to see the same awful scenery. My kids asked to get off 20 minutes into this 90 minute ride. If my husband and I were alone and on the other side of the train i might, might....well no I probably wouldn't go again.

Went on the sunset ride. It was a smooth ride but the only restrooms that weren't locked were up by the dining cars. A far walk from the coach area. Also at night with all the lights on all you could see was your own reflection in the windows.

Great campground, loop D was shaded with lots of trees for a hammock. Spots were well spaced out and people respected quiet hours. I wish the fire pit wasn’t so tall, the smoke hurt my eyes. The bathroom was clean but my only complaint is that the shower water temperature was not adjustable, it was one degree from burning my skin…. Not good especially on a very hot humid day! The park itself was nice. I swam and kayaked in the lake. Just beware, the changing areas and bathrooms do not have lights inside so it was very dark in there 30 minutes before sunset. The food at the concession is pretty good, there’s a ton of options, and prices are decent. The nature center is nice, they have movies every night. They did have some weird taxidermy presentation by the beach.

A beautiful state park near Mansfield and Wellsboro. There is a public beach and you can boat (paddle and/or electric motors only). There is a playground and a nice 3+ mile loop trail around the lake. You can tent and RV camp. You can also stay at a cabin or yurt. The park was well maintained.

We loved our time at Hills Creek. The campground were well kept. The bathrooms were clean. The sites were large with tree cover. The lake trail was beautiful. We stayed in one of the cabins that had electricity 4 bunk beds and a queen(or maybe double? It was bite enough for two people). The mattresses were acceptable, but we doubled them up the 2nd night and had a better nights sleep. We saw raccoons about 9 pm so make sure you store your garbage and food securely. Our friends stayed at a modernized cabin with a bathroom. They said they loved staying there and it was roomy so we will try that next time. One of my favorite campgrounds all year.

Love this park, people are friendly, we are camp hosts here right now. 2nd year for hosting for them. Campsites are spacious, which I like. There is a nice Concession stand too. Food is good, and a verity to choose. Have 10 modern cabins and 2 yurts available..

Such a beautiful park. Lots of trails. Small beach area. I’m sure it’s wonderful in the summer to visit. We saw some cabins you can rent as well as camping areas. Can’t wait to return

This was our first time camping here. It was a very nice state park and campground. It would be nice to have a playground in the campground area for the kids. Spaces were very roomy to allow games and campfires safely. A couple minor things to improve would be qeeding the boat tie off in campground area. The grading on our spot (19) for the sewer line was actually uphill too, made it work but should be better. The last minor thing, camp host. Extremely friendly, too friendly. Never had a camp host stop by multiple times a day. Welcome us but let us enjoy our time. I do get if folks causing issues but need to relax a little.🙂

One of the best places to watch the stars 🤩 we camped there and the kids had a blast!!! We booked a modern cabin and the he cabin was very clean, well maintained, it had an oven with stove top, fridge, microwave and a coffee machine.

There are many things amiss about this tower, the first being the fact that the billboards by the road advertise a 100 mile view, in reality it is about 9 miles on a clear day. The entire site itself looks like there has been zero maintenance in years. There is a falling apart and molding camper with broken windows adjacent to the tollbooth. The beyond sketchy tollbooth only accepts credit cards and looks like it’s from the 90’s. The sign next to the tollbooth says $3 per person however we were charged $5 each, we only found out when checking out bank transactions. Also it says proceed at your own risk when you enter the grounds. The tower is covered with spray paint and graffiti and looks like a back alley in the middle of a city. The view is nice however. In conclusion you are better off just going to the state park instead, the view is just as good with our all the problems.

Very nice view. only accepts Credit/Debit cards at Tower Entrance. Tower Passes can be purchased at Canyon Country Campgrounds with cash or credit/Debit. The campgrounds are just before the Tower. About 💯 ft high, about 💯 steps. The Tower is over 💯 years old.

Beautiful views, old and rustic, but still solid.

Got attacked by a bunch of french coloured pencils, but other than that, epic place.

Great view! Worth the money and time for sure!

At first it was great. The people seemed nice and I found some clothes I liked. Then it all went sideways. I saw some really pretty boots, exactly what I had been wanting to get my girlfriend for a couple of years now. We found a place for her to sit and I was helping her try them on. This might sound silly to some people, but this was important to me. I wanted to do it, and I wanted to do it a certain way. Suddenly the sales woman rushes up and basically tells me "you're doing it wrong" and grabs the boot out of my hand. I tell her that no, I have a reason for how I'm doing it, but I might as well have been talking to a brick wall. She was being condescending and she basically ruined something that was important to me, in spite of the fact that I asked her not too. Of course, she eventually realized that SHE was doing it the wrong way. I was NOT happy. It was rude and condescending. These boots were pretty pricey and I was all set to buy them along with two pairs of pants, but I put the pants on the counter and we walked out the door. I don't often write reviews, but I'm writing this one because writing is therapeutic for me and I'm trying to get back to the good mood I was in before this woman did what she did. The store is probably fine for the most part, but the experience really wasn't. Your mileage may vary.

What a great piece of living history. This department store has been continuously operating for well over a century as an independent store. They even had an old scale with the inner working revealed. Such a neat place.

Dunham’s Department Store is a charming and quintessential small-town store that offers a delightful shopping experience. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere with all the modern conveniences. The store is well-stocked with a wide range of products, including clothing, home goods, and unique gifts. I was particularly impressed with the quality and variety of their merchandise, which caters to all ages and tastes. It’s a perfect place to find something special or just browse through their interesting selection. The staff at Dunham’s are incredibly friendly and helpful. They go out of their way to assist you, offering personalized service that you rarely find in larger chain stores. The layout of the store is neat and well-organized, making it easy to find what you’re looking for. Additionally, the prices are reasonable, and they often have great deals and sales, which is always a plus. It’s a place where you can find quality products, enjoy excellent customer service, and support a local business. I highly recommend a visit if you’re in the area.

A true “old fashioned” department store, an absolute hidden gem in Wellsboro, Pennsylvania. If you remember when every big town had its own, family run, department store, you will love this place! Selling literally everything from clothes, to hardware, to home goods and anything else you can imagine. The highlight for me was the little restaurant located in the front of the store with a perfect view of the Main Street. I had a roasted red pepper soup that would have done credit to any fancy restaurant in any big city. My wife had a salad that touched all the bases, including an exceptional raspberry vinaigrette dressing. If you’re up for a trip to northern Pennsylvania and you’re near Wellsboro, do yourself a favor and check it all out; you’ll be glad you did!

My family and I go here a few times a year. It has an amazing department store vintage shopping feel to it. From their coffee shop ( who doesn’t enjoy shopping while sipping on coffee?) to their unique gifts Dunhams is a great place to shop.

This store is an amazing step back in time! Love shopping here whenever I’m wellsboro! A must stop!!

Nice place lots of stuff huge variety. Friendly staff.

Quiet, clean park with plenty of parking spaces and a nature trail that'll help you forget you're right in the borough. Great for kids, getting some exercise in or just relaxing at the pavilion.

Great park. Very clean and real nice for children. Clean picnic area.

Its a beautiful park with upgraded playground equipment for all ages ..

What a beautiful upgrade to the borough park! People can walk, picnic, and play. Kids climbing, slides and swings. A nice quiet area just outside downtown.

What a wonderful local park for this community. My family stopped here one evening and ate our take out dinner here and found this park to be the cleanest and family oriented parks while being up to date with accommodations. There was a huge playground with ADA restroom facilities nearby. Nice pavilions with a huge amount of picinic tables and plenty of green grass for those four-legged family members, too.

Good park for the kids. Will be nice when the next phase with the trails is completed. Wish they would have gone with higher quality playground equipment, it's less than a year old and already showing signs of not lasting much longer.

Love this little park. The improvements are great. Miss the basketball court. Wish the woodland Ave sidewalk ran all the way to the corner. Have to walk the stroller in the middle of the street to get up to the new sidewalk on Bryson. Can't wait to have chicken BBQ from the new pits

It's a small venue with tables and chairs and movie theater seats in the rear. They sell some snacks and drinks, but people are welcome to bring their own food and drinks of any sort. It was a short distance from our air bnb, so we walked. There are upcoming performances of tribute bands and acting that seemed interesting. Nice little venue!

The Deane Center for the Performing Arts is a true gem in Wellsboro. My recent visit left me thoroughly impressed by the quality of performances and the welcoming atmosphere of the venue. The staff and volunteers are incredibly friendly and helpful, ensuring that every visitor feels right at home. The seating is comfortable, and the acoustics are superb, making it an ideal place to enjoy a variety of performances. The programming at the Deane Center is diverse, offering something for everyone. During my visit, I had the pleasure of attending a live music performance that showcased exceptional talent. The intimate setting allowed for a close connection with the performers, enhancing the overall experience. One of the standout features of the Deane Center is its commitment to the community. They host a range of events, from theatrical productions and concerts to educational workshops and community gatherings. This dedication to fostering a vibrant arts scene is truly commendable.

Beck's Bistro is fabulous! The food is great and the atmosphere is very warm and cozy. Wellsboro is blessed to have a restaurant like this.

A nice little venue that hosted some pretty big name jazz artists on 8/1/24 as part of the Endless Mountain Music Festival I do need to mention they have a fair amount of tables with seats, and maneuvering around them is not always easy....it's pretty tight.

We went for a Memorial. Very nice clean large area

Tiny little venue but nice mudman kicked ass

This is a great place. They have wonderful events. The people that work at the facility are great, too. We enjoyed the TUSK concert tonight.
