Sang Run State Park is a public recreation area covering 264 acres (107 ha) in Garrett County, Maryland.[3] Focal points of the state park are a homestead, Friends Delight, that dates from the early 1800s and the historic Friends Store, which as a center of Sang Run's community life sold various staples and served as post office until the 1970s.[4] The park offers picnicking, hiking trail, and a put-in for Class V whitewater rafting on the Youghiogheny River.[5]
