McFeaters Cove Boat Launch
About
McFeaters Cove Boat Launch is a boat launch in Yellow Creek State Park in western Pennsylvania, about 6 miles from the town of Clymer. Summer is the warmest stretch for getting on the water. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show July highs around 82°F with lows near 59°F, and September is milder, with highs near 75°F. The launch sits slightly higher than that station, so it may run a touch cooler. Hikers can pair a launch with time on foot. Stake Church Trail starts about 0.1 mile away, and the Stake Church Loop Trail and Black Hawk Trail are each roughly 0.4 mile off. Paddlers looking for moving water will find Two Lick Creek about 7 miles away.
