Harrisburg is a small city with a nice small-town feel. There are plenty of good restaurants downtown, including the Firehouse and Appalachian Brewing Company (ABC). ABC is a great place for the beer enthuisiast because it offers 4-6 excellent microbrews and seasonal brews.
Harrisburg is not really a place where you'd want to spend more than ...

I absolutely loved my visit to Harrisburg, PA. I'm from a small town in Oklahoma, and I have to say I got to see alot things I thought I would never have gotten to see. For starters, the mountains. They were absolutely breathtaking! And just to name a few other nice things, were the capitol, the river/lake, the old station, and the weather were ...

My family and I have been visiting Harrisburg for years and have never had any problems with our visits at all. There are plenty of things for a family to do there. We tour the state capital building where they have guided tours and the architecture is lovely and is filled with alot of rich US history. There is the State Museum which has a great ...

Kokomo's
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 09/26/05
They have great Hot Wings and lots of TVs. There's a good selection of beer as well. The place is close to just about everything downtown. They also have a few other Kokomo's in the area.

Hidden gem . . . .
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 02/16/06
Lovely small city with great views of the Susquehanna River from the well manicured paths on the city side or from City Island, which is home to the city's minor league baseball team, miniature golf, and river boat rides. This area is clearly up and coming with signs of life everywhere you look. Whether its the opening of a new restaurant or ...

i love that it is soo colorful and exciting plus i am from harrisburg soo i love this place
i was there last week to look at a nearby school. I was only in Harrisburg for a spin around down town and to catch my train back to DC, but still got a highly favorible impression. Feels like a city of 250,000, rather than its modest 50,000. Very convienent. 2 hours from dc, 2 hours from philadelphia, 90 minutes from baltimore. Near Hershey, home ...

Our first adventure in Harrisburg!
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 09/17/05
The roads are very difficult to understand immediately, but the cost and atmosphere is awesome. We bought a lot here for $900.00 (a very large one at that in middle-downtown,) and just love it. It's very similar in demographics of Danbury CT (06810) in population. However, the geographical area here is much much larger. I recommend Harrisburg to anyhone.

A hidden treasure
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 09/10/05
The whole Harrisburg area is nice, Gettysburg, Hershey Park, Lancaster and Amish Country, etc. The weather is usually cooler than in the DC area. NO TRAFFIC to get there. Great place to visit for a quick weekend trip.
