Photographs of the village during the foliage season have been popular since at least the 1960s,[citation needed] and scenic images of the village have appeared in jigsaw puzzles, calendars and postcards.[citation needed] Postcards of this type have been published since at least 1914.[3]

A painting of Waits River is featured on the album Fred Waring & His Pennsylvanians - The Sounds of Christmas (Release date: 1959).[4]
