    38 sites · RV, Tent

    If you’re planning on hiking the 17-kilometer Morrison Trail, this is the place to rest up before the big departure day.

    Sites are scattered around the trailhead near the Allegheny Reservoir water’s edge. Once you’ve found the perfect spot, start your carb loading for the next day. Boil a big pot of pasta with a side of bread and a few baked potatoes. That’ll keep you going all the next day and then some.

    Austin Dam Memorial Park

    135 sites · RVs, Tents76 acres · PA
    Just outside the quaint town of Austin sits a vivid reminder of one of Pennsylvania's worst disasters – the Austin Flood. In 1909, the dam was constructed on Freeman Run to power the Bayless Papermill downstream. Many wondered if the dam was safe. On September 30, 1911, Austin found out. Poor construction, coupled with torrential rain, resulted in the dam's collapse. Nearly 400 million gallons of water were released, destroying everything for 8 miles. At least 78 people perished in the tragedy. It was the second worst flood disaster in Pennsylvania's history and sixth worst dam failure in U.S. history. The tragedy sparked new legislation to improve dam safety, and the Austin Dam was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987. The ruins of the dam still stand, surrounded by a 76-acre park, as a tribute to the lives lost in the Austin Flood. Don't miss one of Potter County's best kept secrets!
