Kettle Creek State Park RV & Campground Guide

Pennsylvania

Wake up before dawn during your visit to Kettle Creek State Park — the early alarm is well worth the chance to stand on the silent shores of Kettle Creek Lake and take in the views of the misty mountains that rise on all sides. The rest of the day brings plenty of fun: Kayak across the reservoir, hike high into the hills overlooking the water or challenge yourself on the mountain biking trails that snake through the trees. When the snow falls, locals and visitors head to the park for a range of winter sports. No matter when you visit, Kettle Creek State Park offers a relaxing getaway. It's located in a remote part of north-central Pennsylvania, about 15 miles from the small town of Renovo and 70 miles from Williamsport, ensuring year-round peace and quiet.
