Poe Valley State Park, State recreational park in Penn Township, United States.
The 620-acre park contains a 25-acre lake named Poe Lake, surrounded by the extensive Bald Eagle State Forest spanning 198,000 acres.
The Civilian Conservation Corps constructed the lake and park facilities during the Great Depression, establishing the park in 1938 for public recreation.
The park hosts evening amphitheater programs and guided nature walks throughout summer, connecting visitors with Pennsylvania's natural environment.
Visitors can reserve 45 campsites with flush toilets, warm showers, and electric hookups, or choose from three camping cottages near park facilities.
The Reeds Gap Spur Trail stretches 18 miles through the park, connecting to Reeds Gap State Park while intersecting with the Pennsylvania Mid State Trail.
