| description |
Certain places just attract people. The cool, clear water of Little Buffalo Creek has been attracting people for centuries. American Indians frequented Little Buffalo Creek on hunting trips. Farmers and merchants used to gossip and pass news while the grain was ground at Shoaff’s Mill. Nearby, merchants, local people and travelers met at Blue Ball Tavern. Today, thousands of people meet at Little Buffalo State Park to picnic, swim, fish, hike and experience nature and history. |

| importantInformation |
The Little Buffalo State Park swimming pool will be opening for the 2015 season on Tuesday June 23, 2015. We had planned to open the pool on June 6, however, weather delayed the contractor’s work on the project. The pool will remain open through the season, closing on Sept. 7. Daily pool hours are posted at the park; hours are dependent on weather conditions and staffing. Pool admission prices remain the same as last year: $6.00 general admission, $4.00 senior citizen admission (age 62 and up), $5.00 late day admission (after 4 PM). Children under 42” tall are always free. |
