Sickman’s Mill

Tubing down the creek is a delightful way to spend an afternoon. This is a pretty straightforward operation — pay your money, they give you a tube and pick you up an hour or so later. The water has been low both times we’ve been there so be prepared to scoot yourself off the rocks. A great multi-​generation activity.

A little off the beaten path but totally worth it. $ 10 to tube plus they have a small selection of food or you can bring your own and enjoy it in their picnic area. Recommended for ages 8+ (you do have the option to tether tubes together so younger kids can enjoy also). We love what the owners have done with this place and we hope to see their business continue to thrive. Definitely a fun & unique group or family activity!

Nothing like a pleasant tubing trip down a small river in Pennsylvania. Only $ 10 and takes about an hour — 1.5 hours. Nice people. Easy experience. Woman driving the van was a little edgy. Great for kids. You can’t go wrong here.

Hands down, my group’s favorite part of Pennsylvania! For only $ 10 they supply you with a tube. From there, you hop in the tube and begin your float down the river. Truly a relaxing and unique experience. They pick you up at the end of the creek and bring you back to the entrance where you can grab lunch (or eat your own; they have picnic tables). Great for kids and adults of all ages!

This is the second time that we (The Maven Club) have had an event at Sickman’s Mill. Not only did we jump in the creek and tube down the creek (a little over an hour), but then we were able to use some of their creek-​side tables to have a picnic.
What can I say, the concept is simple, they hand over a tube and you get in the creek and enjoy it. At the end, they pick you up and run you back to the beginning. If you decide that you want to go a second time, they usually will offer you a deal.
This event is good for adults and kids (although make sure they can hold their own in a tube). It is good clean wholesome fun. If you sink down deep in your tube, remember to lift yourself up a little bit here and there because some of the creek is a little low in some spots. or the rocks are a little high.
If you take a group, make sure you ask about group rates. This is a great event for friends and family, clubs, church groups etc. It is really safe and very refreshing.
Thank you to the owners for having us again and since is it such a popular event with our club… know that we will be back!
