This 41-acre park is in an isolated area of the Seven Mountains region
known as the Stone Creek Kettle. While this Centre County park is small in
size, it is surrounded by an 80,000-acre block of Rothrock State Forest.
Penn-Roosevelt is a good base for those seeking low-density recreation on
this vast expanse of public land.
Directions:
The park is easily reached from US 322, one-half mile east of Potters
Mills (where US 322 changes from two to four lanes) turn south onto
Crowfield Road (six miles to park) or further east, turn south, (near the
runaway truck ramp) onto Stone Creek Road (also six miles to park).
Penn-Roosevelt can also be reached from Greenwood Furnace State Park. Turn
onto Broad Mountain Road at the park office. Follow the Penn-Roosevelt
signs (12 miles to the park). The roads to the park are not plowed in
the winter.
