Located at the first fork of Sinnemahoning Creek, this park offers a picturesque view of surrounding peaks and deep valleys. The name is derived from an American Indian word meaning "Rocky Lick", a natural salt lick believed to be located near the mouth of Grove Run near Sinnemahoning.
Highlight of the park is the George B. Stevenson Reservoir. Two launch areas accommodate motor and non-powered boats alike. Anglers find warm and cold water species in the lake with native brown trout in feeder streams.
Pontoon boat interpretive programs are offered Memorial Day through Labor Day, and the mooring area is a good place to observe bald eagles and ospreys looking for fish.
Tent and RV camping is permitted on 35 sites. A two-story modern cabin accommodates 12 people and can be rented year-round along Brooks Run.
Hunting is permitted on 1,400 acres. Three picnic areas, several hiking trails and playground round out the amenities.

At just under 390 acres, Sizerville State Park is surrounded by nearly a half-million acres of state forests. Outdoor enthusiasts will particularly enjoy this "hidden" area which acts as trailhead for the popular Bucktail Trail.
A profusion of woodland wild flowers and summer's mountain laurel are evident throughout the park.
Twenty-three sites are available for camping in addition to five secluded streamside tent sites. Other amenities include six picnic pavilions and more than 200 picnic tables, swimming and wading pools, and concession stand.
The east and west branches of Cowley Run flow through the park providing anglers with a high quality, mountain freestone fishing experience. Hunting is also permitted in about half of the park and on the state forest lands surrounding it.
Hiking ranges from an easy walk to a challenging 1,900-foot mountain climb. The Bucktail Trail is part of an extensive backpacking trail system traversing the state's central northern tier.
