The spring-fed river and Trout Run Creek support trout fishing, while scenic overlooks and rocky bluffs frame the landscape. The park features 1930s structures built in National Park Service rustic design and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, campgrounds, bathhouses, and dining facilities within a unique ecological zone where two distinct subsections converge.
