Somerset

County Seat

County seat
Somerset is the county seat for Somerset county and the county I live in. It's mostly rural with rolling dairy farms maple syrup collecting and plenty of outdoor activities. There are three downhill ski areas just outside of Somerset as well as a few lakes plenty of camping, rails to trails and outright wilderness. I should mention a group of outlet storesfor the shoppers. Somerset is also a crossroad for the Pa. turn pike running east to west, Philly to Pittsburgh, state route 219 running north to south.

 Our Somerset isn't as exciting as yours, it seems! Hope you have a magical and memorable holiday!

 I spent a lot of time in Somerset back in the mid-1970s, working at a church camp there in the Laurel Highlands. I loved the cool summers.
