Keystone State Park

We spent a nice day at Keystone State Park. The park has a pretty lake which is used for fishing, boating, and swimming. There are several picnic areas and some trails on which to walk. Cabins are available for those who desire to camp.

Fort Ligonier

Reviewed By motherchristmas61 - Richardson, Texas

The actual fort is great and worth seeing. Disappointed in the center that is not completed or they are remodeling, not sure which. A lot of 'coming soon' signs where there should be displays.

Saint Vincent College

Reviewed By PensandSteelersFan - Pittsburgh

I visited the beautiful church on campus the week before Easter. It felt very peaceful. I also visited the Mister Rogers museum and loved seeing the memorabilia. In past visits I have been to the grist mill, the cemetery, and of course Steelers camp. Saint Vincent has a wonderful campus!

This is a nice small museum on the Lincoln Highway housed in a 200 year old home along the original alignment of the highway through this area. It has some nice photos and descriptions of landmarks along the highway and a good film to introduce...MoreThank you for stopping by our museum. Have a grand adventure along the Lincoln Highway and beyond!

My toddler is a Daniel Tiger super fan! So being that we were able to get on the trolley and have him see the show and become super excited was worth the 5hr ride from Philadelphia. The park offered free return tickets for the 2018 season as something occurred in the water park. I had no idea I was given this, the person at the booth should have been more clear.

The Good
Free Parking
Plenty of rest areas

The Bad
Only one attendant per ride makes lines super drag out
The food is pricey at the park, I recommend purchasing the online food combo you save on average $2 dollars a person if you go this route.

This is the first time my friends and I have participated in this business’ escape rooms. Being a group that has participated in other companies’ games, we were very excited to try a new brand. The game itself was fun. However, the service was awful. The attitude, verbal input, facial expressions, and mannerisms of the staff member that helped us was terrible. He appeared to be annoyed and openly spoke to the group as if we were being scolded for excitement. He was rude and unprofessional. Our group was not using foul language or being rude, we were asking questions in the beginning and cheering after winning. When we had asked about a provided example, he threatened to “dock time from the game” if he could not get through his speech. When we finished, members went to use the restroom after being in the room playing for the hour, and he stated they could not be in the group photo if they didn’t return within 30 seconds. (Luckily the business phone had rang and bought them some time to finish.) I’m not sure if he was just having a bad day, but if this is how this business operates, I’m not planning to go back and find out. I’ll choose a different business!!
