Glenwood Park was 2 miles (3.2 km) south of Hornellsville and 3 miles (4.8 km) north of Canisteo, at Midway Court, in the hamlet of South Hornell. 25 acres (10 ha) in size, it was developed by the owners of the Hornellsville & Canisteo Electric Railroad, inaugurated in 1892, on "a wooded glen and bluff" and "a mile of river" they purchased, so as to build ridership by creating a destination. The Inn opened in 1895. Adjacent to it were a dance hall, which also served as a skating rink, a bandstand/pavilion, merry-go-round, picnic tables, a tennis court, and a boathouse where rowboats could be rented for use in an artificial lake created by a small dam on the Canisteo River. Boys could swim in the river, and "trails for hiking ran back up on the hill through the glen". It was a venue for concerts by the Canisteo Band or one from a neighboring community, banquets, dances, and picnics. "Not a day goes but what a more or less large party visits the spot". No alcohol was served. On Sundays there were excursion trains to it. In the winter it was closed.
