Review:

Joseph Allen Skinner State Park, more often recognized just as Skinner State Park, is a public recreational area that was established in 1940. The park spans over 840 acres and has several unique and interesting aspects for visitors to enjoy. One such feature is the historic Summit House, which is an old hotel which first opened in 1851 at the very top of the summit and stayed in operation until a natural disaster damaged it beyond repair in 1938. The building was deteriorating for a while before it was fully restored in 2014 and you can now take tours of the stunning structure. Other things you can do while there are going on a picnic, hiking, mountain biking, or attending one of the many summertime concerts which are hosted there.
