Austin Dam Memorial Park

135 sites · RVs, Tents76 acres · PA
Just outside the quaint town of Austin sits a vivid reminder of one of Pennsylvania's worst disasters – the Austin Flood. In 1909, the dam was constructed on Freeman Run to power the Bayless Papermill downstream. Many wondered if the dam was safe. On September 30, 1911, Austin found out. Poor construction, coupled with torrential rain, resulted in the dam's collapse. Nearly 400 million gallons of water were released, destroying everything for 8 miles. At least 78 people perished in the tragedy. It was the second worst flood disaster in Pennsylvania's history and sixth worst dam failure in U.S. history. The tragedy sparked new legislation to improve dam safety, and the Austin Dam was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987. The ruins of the dam still stand, surrounded by a 76-acre park, as a tribute to the lives lost in the Austin Flood. Don't miss one of Potter County's best kept secrets!

The best camping near Sizerville State Park guide

Overview

About

You want a picnic? We’ll give you a picnic—just come to Sizerville State Park and take your pick from the more than 200 wooden tables and benches scattered around the grounds of this 386-acre plot of perfection. Nom it up, then channel your old swim coach and instruct all your peeps to wait 30 minutes before cannonballing into the 105-foot pool. Unless it’s off-season. That could be painful. But, we’ve got alternatives!—work off the marshmallow kabobs on one of the five miles of loop trails for varied levels of hikers, or hop on a snowmobile or a pair of cross-country skis and see all the sights of this beautiful space.

Anglers, hunters, and trappers will find their happy place here at Sizerville and campers equipped with both RVs and tents are welcome year-round. Come fall, you could find your next handmade gem at the Annual Autumn Festival, or in the warmer months, you can pop your head into the Environmental Education Building to check out the many species of butterflies that this park’s native plants attract. And, all that? That’s just the start of it. We’ll let nature do the rest.

When to go

The best time to visit Sizerville State Park is during the warmer months, from late spring to early fall, when the park's full beauty is on display. Winter can be harsh, with heavy snowfall limiting access to certain areas, making it less ideal for visitors.

Know before you go

  • Check weather conditions before your visit, as they can change rapidly.
  • Be aware of park hours, typically from 8:30am to 5pm, and plan your trip accordingly.
  • Ensure you have proper gear for hiking and any other activities you plan to enjoy.
  • Stay informed about any trail closures or area restrictions during your visit.
  • Remember to practice Leave No Trace principles to preserve the park's natural beauty.
