        I went here on Good Friday since I had off from work and it was a beautiful day. I parked in Lancaster County in the lot on Mountain Spring Rd. Its a small lot but there were only a few cars there. I did the loop counter clock wise, starting along the creek. Since I always prefer trails along water, I loved this part of the loop. I took the blue Explorer trail which leads towards the reservoir. I stopped by the small museum and sat outside which backs to the reservoir. There were only a handful of people there. I wish I would have known about this place when my kids were small, they would have enjoyed it. Its interactive learning. I also walked the conservation trail. Then I connected to the loop again and went back to the parking lot via the Elders Run trail. This trail is not as exciting, although there are a few old foundations right off the trail. Parts of the trails are muddy but there are wooden platforms and log rounds to step on. I dont go to this part of the county often, I didnt realize how nice it is.

        Middle Creek is a great place for bird-watching despite the foolishness of the people who run it. As you can see from the photographs there is some sort of renovation going on to the visitor center. Since the visitor center has been closed for over a year-and-a-half why on Earth are they doing any kind of renovations to begin with? You can't go in now; you couldn't go in for the last year-and-a-half; and presumably after the renovations are done you still won't be able to go in. Dumb! That being said Middle Creek is probably the single best place in Lancaster County to bird. There are certainly other places that are excellent and I don't mean to demean them by saying this. But in terms of diverse habitat I think Middle Creek wins hands down. There is ample parking, excellent trails and a wide variety of flora and fauna. Worth a visit. However, the Visitor Center is closed still (at least on weekends) with no place to use bathroom facilities. Shameful.

      Hi, Edward - thank you for your review. During the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Visitor's Center had two full-time staff and two part-time staff. Three of the four staff members were considered high risk and managers felt it necessary to keep the center closed, but the rest of the grounds open for public use until our staff was vaccinated or more comfortable with proper precautions in place at the center. Middle Creek has over 150,000 visitors a year and the safety of our staff was of utmost importance due to the sheer number of visitors we get per year.Behind the scenes (pre-COVID), Game Commission staff was working on an addition to the center that will feature the Game Commission Conservation Heritage Museum, a new wing of the center dedicated to the history of conservation within our state. The timing of the start of that project lined up when we felt comfortable opening the center. However, because of construction areas within the Center, and renovations, such as replacing the original 50 year-old floor, managers are waiting until the major parts of the addition are done to ensure the safety of guests inside the Visitor's Center since it is an active construction zone. We anticipate the Center being able to be open this fall, but the Conservation Heritage Museum will be open this Snow Goose Season, assuming there are no restrictions in place per state guidelines.We regret that we have had to be closed this duration of time, but are looking forward to reopening as soon as possible. The renovations and addition to the Center will provide a more diverse experience for our visitors while ensuring that the Middle Creek Visitors Center will be able to be used for many years into the future.
