What is there to do? On a nice summer

day, there are plenty of lakes and rivers to go swimming, boating, or tubing. You may also take a tour of the mountain side by four wheeling through the woods or hike the famous Susquehanna trail.

During the winter, you can enjoy the white snow covered mountains by snowmobiling on the trails, sledding, cross country skiing, down-hill skiing, or simply relax around a cozy fire. Star gazing is also a popular activity all twelve months.
