love it here! Not only are they a wealth of information for things to do around the area but it's just beautiful to take a walk, do some boating or ride the trail. The picnic tables make it a great place to sit with lunch and enjoy the beautiful scenery.

What a surprise when we parked the car. The setting is all around delightful. The stilted architecture is current and elegant, surrounded by vast green lawn that faces the Susquehanna River. It is also a perfect vantage point for viewing the Veterans Memorial Bridge. The center provides an excellent source of information for accesses to the river as well as bike trails in Lancaster County. It also offers facilities for events such as exhibitions and weddings. The parking lot, though a substantial size, could be overrun especially in the summer during popular boating and biking season. There is one boat launcher and 2 docked paddle boat access points, including one which is wheelchair accessible. And I should count also the one undocked access point right under the bridge. The center marks the southern end of the Northwest Lancaster County River Trail, currently my favorite trail. The one negative I should point out is that it can be confusing to get to the trailhead. There is an overflow parking area and restricted access road that can potentially mislead. The key is to go across the traffic light to where the murals are and head left until the Y intersection where you'd have to cross twice in order to get to the trail. Aside from that, this place is perfectly situated and planned out.
Its absolutely beautiful and peaceful along the river. Enjoying a milk shake from Coffee & Cream shop on 101 N.Front street Columbia Pa 17512
This was a wonderful surprise. The trail maps and knowledgeable staff were so helpful in planning our experience. The Center has a beautiful view of the River from the raised, covered porch. This is the perfect spot for lunch.
Beautiful place to picnic! There are picnic tables and benches, by the water which is nice.There is a boat dock, which we did not use but it looked like there was plenty of space to load and unload, and the parking spaces were large enough for trailers and there was also ample parking and an overflow lot. I was told there is a museum that goes over the history but I did not attend yet, I will update when I go back! There are also trails I did not get to hike but it is a beautiful area and I will be returning for the trails as well. This review is not as thorough as I like but I wanted to share the info I knew because this is a beautiful place to visit.
