BEST PLACE TO GO!!!!!! Better with friends rather than with family. This place includes beautiful zip lining view, best tree top adventures, great drop zone, and a humongous lake for you to canoe. Not a lot of restrictions making the fun even more than other places. This place is meant for all ages.

It's a camp, so it's not going to be luxurious. Rustic cabins with the essentials. Service very attentive and food was quite good but typical fare. Grounds are very nice with two large swimming pools. Located about 45 minutes from Allentown, PA.

I chaperoned a school trip to the Poconos with about 40 HS seniors. The rooms were clean and comfortable, there was a lot of activities for the students, and plenty of food. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Really Good place in Pennsylvania. With amazing ziplining, canoeing and a swimming pool, this place is a must visit when visiting the Poconos. The food is average there. Overall, a good trip we had on June 17 with my school friends.

Every year I go to Girl Scout events here Cabaret. I love coming so much. I love going on all the zip lines rope courses and all the sports stuff. Staff are super nice and even nicer when you go on rope courses. The food is an amazing now so I recommend bringing some food with you for your cabin so all you have to eat there is your lunch breakfast or dinner. Amazing campsite love it 100%

They hold a naked camp there for gay men beginning today the 15th for 10 days. 500 to 600 naked guys. All meals and lodging provided and you can do half-time.

It was great!!!!! I loved the activities and the staff were nice. The cabins were spacious. My favorite part was the lake. The lake is so fun and beautiful. This was the Girl Scouts Camporee. The lunch wasn't great. We also still did things when it was raining. This place is great you should try going there.
