Black Moshannon State Park

Black Moshannon State Park address is  4216 Beaver Road, Philipsburg, PA 16866-9515
Their website is http://www.dcnr.pa.gov/StateParks/FindAPark/BlackMoshannonStatePark/Pages/default.aspx

 Hiking/ walking trails, canoe & boat rentals, swimming , fishing  and  bike riding are all offered so bring along appropriate footwear and gear ( fishing equipment, bike ) if you are interested in any of these activities.

Cabin 20 ( the former ski lodge- no it's not as glamorous as it sounds , lol)  is on a private road with plenty of paved parking.   It  sleeps  eight with one queen size bed, and three sets of bunk beds.  A second cabin that sleeps six ( one queen size and two sets of bunk beds) has been reserved. Both cabin have full baths, kitchens and living rooms. Plan on bringing bedding, or a sleeping bag. If you are flying in and do not have space for bedding, let me know and I will provide it. Towels are not supplied by the Park so plan on bringing your own.

The cabins are reserved for June 1rst through June 7th.  You may come for the weekend, or for the entire time , whatever fits your schedule. As we get closer to June, I WILL be asking for a firm commitment as to who is coming and for approximately how long, so I can get a better handle on meal planning and amount of food to have on hand.  If you have any special dietary needs or food allergies, PLEASE let me know.  And if you have a particular dish you would like us to try, by all means feel free to make suggestions/bring the recipe.

If you are flying in, the nearest airport is  University Park Airport,  State College . PA .  Their website is   Universityparkairport.com.  There are car rentals available at the airport, or I can probably provide transportation from the airport to the park.


NOTICE -  cell service in the park is limited, so fair warning. Techies may experience withdrawal symptoms.

If you wish, bring along a favorite scary or funny movie in DVD form for movie night , as well as any games you'd like to play. There will be a number of choices for day excursions but no set schedule other than Relax !
