Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Nice little area with great views. We were there for the fall foliage so the beach was closed, but we could still walk on it to get some nice views. Between the water and mountains it makes for a great view. Some picnic tables so it would be a good lunch spot. All but the family restroom were locked, but there was no one there so it worked. May have concession stand there if you go in the summer to swim. Great views secluded in the mountains. Will be back.

I have reviewed this already and will return to do more stargazing in the future. Great place to see the milky way and constellations.

If you enjoy riding your ATV/UTV then Lyman Run has some of the best trails in the Susquehannock State Forest, you can ride right into the State Park at Lyman Run and park at the dam at the lake where you can enjoy swimming, fishing, canoeing and kayaking. The facilities are top notch and the staff are friendly and helpful.

We stopped by and admired the lake view from the dam and hiked one short trail. It was okay but nothing great. People were riding ATVs there. The beach area was closed due to COVID but it looked like they usually offered swimming. Restrooms were open but soda machines had not been refilled. A line of kayaks along the shore but no one out on the lake.

Reservoir in the forest with cute little beach. Grassy area above beach was dog friendly. Two cute campgrounds nearby too.

After the dam was rebuilt some years back, the lake was just like it was when we were kids. A nice sunny day surrounded by the mountains is enjoyable with a picnic lunch. BYOF since there are no nearby restaurants. The lake is refreshing with its usual warm and cold spots.

Nice swimming area. Clean bathrooms. It would have been nice if hey had showers. It looked like there was a hike around the small lake. Next time we will try that. They had a nice concession stand.
