About This Access Site
Hills Creek Lake offers a concrete boat ramp in the Covington/Tioga County area near the Pennsylvania-New York border in north-central Pennsylvania. The ramp is located at the northern end of the lake, with dedicated day-use parking available nearby. This is a popular access point for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters looking to explore the scenic lake environment in this region.

The site is part of a larger recreation area with camping facilities available through Recreation.gov reservations (phone: 570-835-5281). Beyond paddling, the area offers additional recreational opportunities including hiking and biking trails. The location provides convenient access from major routes in the region, making it a practical launch point for a day trip or extended visit. Nearby alternative paddling options include Cowanesque Lake and Tioga-Hammond Lakes, both Corps of Engineers projects in the same area.
