The community was also the home of Roadside America, a large community of miniature trains and villages, located off Interstate 78, that was open to the public at that location from 1953 until 2020, when the attraction was closed, largely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. [7] [8]
Just to the north of Shartlesville was the Mountain Springs Arena, which hosted events including rodeos, concerts, horse shows, demolition derbies, tractor pulls, and an annual country fair.
