GenieSummary

Cook Forest State Park in Leeper, PA is a beautiful park located on Rt 36. The park has fantastic hiking trails where you can explore old growth forests with many great sites. The park has spacious pet-friendly RV sites with a lot of shade. There is a small laundry available. The bathrooms are decent, and while the shower house could use an update, there is no lack of hot water and great water pressure. However, there is limited cellular reception in the area, with non-available coverage for Tmobile and Verizon. But fortunately, the Park Ranger Office provides a free wifi service that allows you to make calls and check your email. The nearby fire tower and scenic drive along the river road are noteworthy, with lots of picnic tables and places to hike. Although the park is quite remote, you can ask the Park Ranger at the office for maps of the area or directions to the campground, as finding the exact location of the campground can be a bit challenging. Lastly, there are not many shopping options nearby, so bring everything you need.

From The Campground

Cook Forest State Park offers a variety of activities and amenities for visitors to enjoy. The park features scenic views from Seneca Point Overlook and Historic Fire Tower #9, as well as the Sawmill Center for the Arts and the Verna Leith Sawmill Theater. Visitors can also participate in hands-on activities, guided walks, and evening programs to gain appreciation and understanding of the natural and cultural resources in the area. The Log Cabin Environmental Learning Center offers indoor space for programs and displays historic logging and rafting tools, models, and artifacts. The park also provides ADA accessibility and curriculum-based environmental education programs for schools and youth groups. Visitors are reminded not to feed wildlife, as black bears are native to the area. The park is open for camping and overnight lodging during the 2023 Trout Season.
