From here you can travel upstream by car on either side of the WIld
and Scenic Allegheny River. Adjacent to this property you can hook up
with Allegheny Outfitters where you can rent a canoe, get a ride to the
dam and get picked up later at a destination of your choice.
This pre-Civil War structure is located on Pennsylvania Avenue at
Hemlock Road on Warren's East Side, just about right across the
street from United Refining. This building is now a private club,
featuring riverside dining year-round. You can't miss it as you enter
Warren on the Glade Run Bridge.
The road directly behind the old hotel is Hemlock Road, which leads
to a new easy-access, family fishing pier right at the tailwaters of the
Kinzua Dam and the National Fish Hatchery.
The hatchery is open for tours until 3 p.m. most days. The fishing pier
seems to be always open. If you ever wanted to see a very large dam
up close this is the place to do it.
Hemlock Road was only recently paved and there are only about
one-and-a-half lanes for most of it. It hugs the river closely and a lot of
fly fisherman are able to find a nook or cranny to park along it.
Standing close to the building you can just make out the remnants of
the hotel's old name arranged in a horizontal row between the
windows of the first and second floors. You might have to squint your
eyes a little bit to see it.
If you cross the Glade Run Bridge here away from Warren it takes you
to the Longhouse National Scenic Byway and Kinzua Dam on a
beautiful drive on Route 59. (Turn left at the blinking light onto Route
59).
From here, explore the great outdoors at the dam, the river, Kinzua
Lake, or into the half-million acre Allegheny National Forest.
If you happen to be interested in eating in a pre-civil war restaurant,
you can contact the Eagles Club FOE #313 at 814 726-1172 and ask
about membership.
