The Whitehouse lane side has a sheltered picnic area. I believe there's a charcoal grill. I assuming you'd need to contact Highspire borough for reservation information. It would be nice if the trail extended around the whole reservoir. In my opinion the only negatives are the occasional bike, or dog without a leash.

My favorite area was where we could see the crystal clear pond in the cave floor. Next to the visitor center are some goats, alpacas, and a turkey. Also there's a cage with a blue and white peacock. I wish the peacocks had more space to roam, as mentioned by another Yelper.

THE BEST!!!! I…read moreremember getting excited as a kid when we'd cross the bridge from the East Shore and start winding up the steep hill that leads to the park. And you know what? I still get just as excited making that ascent as an adult! This park is so beautiful!! You get THE BEST view you can possibly see of Harrisburg from this one little field. The playground section is well-kept with antique charm. The tennis and basketball courts give nice options for play. So does the baseball field. The picnic pavillion is a nice, shady place to take a breather. The bathrooms aren't even that shabby. And there's ample parking. I actually think Negley beats out Central Park for me. I just love it so much :-)

Lots of local businesses and individuals (like ANG's 193rd Special Operations Wing) sponsored & helped with its construction.
