Parking lot was spacious and there were restrooms too. There is a pathway down to the falls and also a long walkway around (Mister Rogers Pathway). We chose the long way around which was nice. I can only imagine how beautiful it would be during the fall months. When you arrive to the falls there is an overlook view which is really amazing. You then cross a little bridge and walk down a set of stairs to the waterfall. The stairs were fairly new and manageable- going down and back up. There is an area that you walk and stand under and behind the falls.. I loved that!!! It was so neat. We look forward to returning.

I checked out the covered bridge and a few of the park's streams and creeks. There's also a fun playground with a parking area very close to the bridge.

This review is limited in scope to the annual covered bridge festival held here every Sept. Each…read moreyear EQT Washington and Green counties partner with various covered bridge locations in their areas and host a two day event centered around the bridge. Mingo Creek park has the pleasure of having two covered bridges within their confines. The most popular is the Ebenezer covered bridge which has a lot of marketplace craft vendors, food vendors, and a dee jay on site. The other is located at the Henry bridge also within this park. The event is well organized and well thought out. Although parking gets to be packed they offer free shuttle service to the Ebenezer covered bridge from a farther location. Parking is in the grassy areas but they do offer handicapped and special needs parking a well. Be prepared to wait however when entering and parking. There are definitely long lines here! Once on the grounds they give you a free shopping bag along with brochures not only of the festival but about other businesses in the area. Some of the covered bridges allow you to bring your pets; this one does not. Reception is very bad here so you are encouraged to bring cash wherever possible. Should you find you don't have enough then they have two ATMs on site for your convenience. Restrooms are also on the grounds I was blown away by all the different craft vendors selling autumn and holiday merchandise. Food is located throughout the venue as well as picnic pavilions for you to consume your purchases. Staff is very friendly and you can actually walk through the covered bridge itself as well as soak in the natural beauty of Mingo Creek. I enjoyed visiting the various vendors. Ended up purchasing a few pairs of earrings and some homemade dog treats. The food selection was great and you could just smell the fresh sausages coming off of Country Accent. My favorite of course was Patti's pastries in Center Twp where they sold giant homemade cupcakes and ladylocks to die for! Believe me, this dessert shop is worth the hype! I was glad to pay my first visit to the area and am hoping to check out their covered bridge self driving tour of the vicinity when the autumn leaves change.

Probably the best county park I've seen in my travels. There's also a 2-lane boat launch area and 2 restroom facilities.

Game fish like hybrid striped bass, smallmouth, pike, walleye, muskies are constantly feeding off the schools and migrate in and out of the creek.

There's a tower up a long, winding road, but you don't even need to go up into the tower to see the gorgeous mountain view. The landscape is breathtaking, I'm sure, during any time of the day.

However, I loved going for walks in the area. It's such an amazing experience. Peace, quiet, utter bliss... what more could you ask for? If you walk up this dirt road, you'll encounter a wooden tower on a hill. If you walk up the tower, you can take in the breathtaking view. A full 360° of trees. It's all picture-worthy. You truly won't be disappointed. You can continue to walk around to discover new things. There's a lake next to the Lakeside Lodge. I would always see weddings take place at the lake from the Stable Lodge. It was really nice to see something like that. Unfortunately, this place is private property. You can't just walk in willy-nilly. We rented out a cabin, that's the only reason we were granted access. The place is being sold. It's up for around $1.3 million dollars. Therefore, we can't rent out the Stable Lodge anymore. The whole place is gated off. I wish I could go back up there, just one last time. It's truly amazing. That place means a lot to me. My family has been going up there since I was a baby, and I'm 17. A lot of memories are kept there. It's also the place where I found myself. I would do whatever I could to go up there just one last time. I want to share the experience with my girlfriend. I would pay that $1.3 million to go back up there. If you're lucky enough to visit the 18 acres of pure scenery, you won't be disappointed for even a second.

The park is on the smaller side but does have plenty of parking spaces. The trail is paved and clearly marked. I was expecting it to loop all the way around the lake but it didn't seem to.
