Nockamixon State Park

The 5,286-acre Nockamixon State Park is in the rolling hills of scenic Bucks County, close enough to Philadelphia or a day trip, but far enough away for a vacation. Tohickon Creek, Three Mile Run, and Haycock Run feed the 1,450-acre Lake Nockamixon, which is a rest stop for migrating waterfowl and a destination for boaters and anglers. Visitors can stay the night in a cabin or enjoy the many activities of the park for the day. Popular activities are picnicking, swimming in the pool, hiking, biking, disc golf, hunting, fishing, and boating. Seasons and Hours: The park is open every day of the year, sunrise to sunset. Day use areas close at dusk. The park office is open specific hours. Fishing and boating is permitted 24 hours a day in designated areas. Some park areas are closed to vehicles in the winter. Contact the park office for facility seasons and hours.

This park has everything you can wish for from beautiful vistas, hiking trails, biking trails, boat and canoes rental , fishing and golfing. Visited the overflow overlook point and then headed to Marina. We had lunch by the beautiful lake on a sunny day enjoying gorgeous views of boats and canoes passing by on the lake. The spot was off the trail and pretty isolated. We will return to the park more prepared with bikes and fishing gears next time.

They have stores in barn number two that have items that I haven't seen in over 20 years and they are new in their original packaging . It was like going back in time to the museum of toys and collectables. Great place. Barn two makes it worth the trip to the Quakertown farmers market. Remember barn two is behind the main market behind the water tower.
