Lake Rehabilitation Project Fall 2026 through 2027: For reservations after Labor Day 2026-Keystone Lake at Keystone State Park is to be drawn down after Labor Day of 2026 through mid-October of 2027. The lake is to be drawn down for dredging work at the headend of the lake. The swimming area will be closed for the 2027 season. Although fishing and boating will still be permitted, we will encourage caution if one pursues these activities as the exposed silt lake bed could pose a significant hazard to navigate. All recreation trails, campground and cabins will remain open. Please contact the park office at 724.668.2939 for any additional questions.

Overview
Description

The 1,200-acre Keystone State Park is great for day-trips and family vacations year-round. Camping, modern cabins, many trails and a lake are all within walking distance, providing an ideal setting for wildlife watching or outdoor adventures. The park is within easy driving distance from the Pittsburgh metropolitan area, the Laurel Highlands and their many attractions.

Recreation:

The 78-acre Keystone Lake has warm and cold water fishing. A fishing area by the spillway is ADA accessible. Fishing is prohibited at the beach, causeway, boat launch and mooring areas.

The park offers a variety of trails open year-round for hiking, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. All trails have easy access with parking available at the trailheads. Stone Lodge Trail is a 1.4 mile, steep loop that winds through hardwoods up to ridge top conifers.

Davis Run Trail is a 2.5-mile trail. Lake Side Trail is a 2-mile loop around the lake. McCune Run Trail is a short hike to a beaver pond and wetland area. Pine Trail is a short loop trail through a red pine and white pine plantation.

Lake Side Trail is excellent for bikes of all types. This 2-mile, level trail loops around the lake on park roads and walkways. Mountain bikes must stay on park roads or gravel walkways. All other trails are foot-traffic only.

Ice fishing, ice skating, sledding and cross-country skiing are popular when conditions permit. The day use area of the park and the cabins provide excellent opportunities for winter sports.

Facilities:

A public boat launching ramp and mooring area are on the north shore by the breast of the dam.
