Parker Dam State Park Beach, Sand beach in Huston Township, United States
Parker Dam State Park Beach stretches along a 20-acre lake, offering a sandy shoreline surrounded by dense forests of white pine and hemlock trees.
The beach area was developed in the 1930s by the Civilian Conservation Corps, which constructed numerous recreational facilities throughout the park.
The beach serves as a central gathering point for community events, including the annual Fall Festival where carved pumpkins float on the lake surface.
The beach maintains operating hours from 8:00 AM until sunset between late May and mid-September, with a maximum water depth of five feet.
The beach sits at the western terminus of the 75-mile Quehanna Trail system, connecting visitors to an extensive network of hiking paths.
