RV rental Lyman Run State Park, PA: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

Surrounded by a hardwood forest of cherry and maple trees, the centerpiece of Lyman Run State Park is 45-acre Lyman Run Lake. This man-made lake is the park's main attraction and is usually a hive of activity during the warmer months. Many Lyman Run State Park campers like to get their stay off to the right start by taking a dip in the lake at the park's 300-foot sandy beach. Open from late May through until the middle of September, the beach is quite popular at the height of summer with both swimmers and sunbathers. A bathhouse, changing rooms, and snack bar are all provided, as is a popular boat rental concession. If you'd like to take a boat out on the water, take note that only electric motors (no gasoline) are permitted in the lake. A boat launching ramp and a courtesy dock are provided, and the calm waters are perfect for leisurely canoeing and kayaking. Anglers will also be pleased to learn that the lake offers excellent trout fishing. Thanks to the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission, which stocks the lake with both palomino and rainbow trout, there are plenty of good reasons to wet a line. If you'd rather do some exploring on foot, there are six miles of hiking trails to enjoy within the park. Rock Run Trail is a popular route that takes in some very large boulders, while Lyman Run Trail lets you hike the park from end to end. Even better, several of these trails link up with the huge trail system in Susquehannock State Forest. And while we're on the topic of the forest, Lyman Run State Park also provides access to the Susquehannock ATV Trail. With 43 miles to explore, it's well worth checking out if you're an ATV enthusiast.
