| Description | Pymatuning is one of the largest state parks in the Commonwealth. Pymatuning Lake is especially lovely in late spring evenings when the sunset gilds the water and colorful sailboats appear to slide across a lake of gold. Non-powered boats and boats to 20 horsepower are permitted. There are three Pennsylvania boat marinas where motorboats, rowboats, canoes, kayaks, and motors can be rented. With 401 campsites in two areas, Pymatuning is one of the largest camping areas in the Commonwealth. 20 modern rental cabins are available for year-round use near Jamestown and 5 modern cabins are open during the summer season near Linesville. Anywhere along the lake, there are beautiful vistas. Unique sights include the dam and the Linesville Spillway. The Spillway is perhaps one of the best known locations because the ducks walk on the fishes' backs to compete for food fed by the visitors. Three bathing beaches are open from Memorial Day through Labor Day. In addition, a beach for campers is located in the Jamestown Camping Area. Two of the beaches have bathhouses with sanitary facilities. In the winter there is ice fishing, ice-skating, sledding, iceboating, cross-country skiing and snowmobiling. Pymatuning co-hosts the annual Winter Fun Days with the Pymatuning Trailblazers and hosts the annual Spooktackular Event in October. |
