Settlers Cabin Park is a 1,610-acre (7 km2) county park in Allegheny County,

Pennsylvania, United States. It is a part of the county's 12,000 acre (49 km2) network of
nine distinct parks.
It is sited 10 miles (16 km) west of downtown Pittsburgh in Collier, North Fayette,
and Robinson Townships. Archaeologists from Carnegie Museum of Natural
History helped identify the 1780s log house that gives the park its name. The themes of
the 11 picnic groves are Indian names: Algonquin, Seneca, Apache, Tomahawk, etc.

Settlers Cabin has the most heavily used of the county's three wave pools. The location
along the major route to the airport makes it accessible, and swimmers from Ohio and
West Virginia can easily reach the site. An impressive diving platform adds to the
attraction.[1]
