Westport: Kettle Creek and ATV Trail

Discover Westport as an outdoor destination through three distinct points of interest: the Whiskey Springs All-Terrain Vehicle Trail, with access from town; a nearby section of Kettle Creek; and Kettle Creek State Park in the surrounding area. They offer ATV riding opportunities, a trout stocking program, and a park with defined daily hours. So if you’re looking for a vacation rental in Westport, it helps to first decide what you want to focus on: should your day be centered on trail access, Kettle Creek, or the park? Access, location, and hours each shape your plans differently.

ATV Riding and Access

The Whiskey Springs All-Terrain Vehicle Trail offers 50 miles of ATV riding in summer and winter. Access is from State Route 120 in Westport, following Kettle Creek for about 1.5 miles and then heading north on Two-Mile Road. When planning, it’s helpful to distinguish what each figure represents: about 1.5 miles describes the access route, while 50 miles refers to the riding opportunities on the trail. The trail is open to registered Class II ATVs. Check the current trail regulations before you travel. This lets you confirm vehicle requirements before planning your days for summer or winter riding.

Trout Stocking on Kettle Creek

Near Westport, Kettle Creek has a 5.6-mile section that runs downstream from Slide Hollow to the mouth. It was added to the trout stocking program in 2026; trout are stocked both before and during the season. The trout program is a different reason to visit than the trail’s riding opportunities; if you’re interested in both, plan for the section and activity separately. For seasonal planning, note that stocking takes place before and during the season, while the trail offers riding opportunities in summer and winter.

Kettle Creek State Park

Kettle Creek State Park is in the surrounding area of Westport on SR 4001: seven miles north of PA 120 at Westport and three miles west of PA 144. It is open every day, year-round, from sunrise to sunset; day-use areas close at dusk. Plan your visit according to the park’s hours and those of its day-use areas.

Choose Your Accommodation Based on Your Plans

When choosing a vacation rental in Westport, the main considerations are what you want to focus on during your stay and where you want to spend your time. The trail is accessible from Westport, while the state park is in the surrounding area; for Kettle Creek, the trout stocking section near Westport is a specific point of interest. Compare your stay dates with the seasonal information for the trail and stocking program, as well as the park’s daily hours. This will help you decide what matters most before booking.
