Check in: We were told that check in was between 2p.m-7p.m. Upon arrival there was only one staff at the camp store/front desk, she was on the phone with a guest making a reservation. I waited about 15 minutes and she finally checked me in. I got a map of the campground, the wi-fi password, trash bag, etc. Location: Lizard Creek is located about 20 minutes from Jim Thorpe. There is a Giant grocery store about 10 minutes away. Beltzille State Park is about 20 minutes. Cabin: Full service cabin. Queen size comfortable bed. Bedroom had a closet and 2 bunk beds. Plates, dish soap, paper towel, sponge, pots and pans provided. Full size refrigerator and microwave. There was a grill outside which we did not use, it was dirty, previous guest did not clean it. The TV was not working properly, the screen was not clear and the remote did not have working batteries. I brought this up to the front office lady who spoke to the owner. We were given new batteries but the screen was the same. The next morning, a new TV was installed. It worked great! The cabin had a table and chairs on the deck and a fire ring with 2 benches around it. The laundry room and the public restrooms were located in the building in front of the cabin. Bathroom: Good size, hot and cold water. No problems taking a shower or bath. Storage in bathroom. Overall, besides the long wait at check in, we had a good experience.

All I can say is I've been camping my whole life (49yrs) and have never been to a campground this nice. Small stocked pond to fish, very clean and well kept place, clean good tasting water, showers are equally as nice as the MGM penthouse suite or the Cosmopolitan Hotel in Las Vegas, they have a swimming pool, outdoor kitchen where on holidays and events they cook for the campers, laundry area, then there are the upgraded mini deck sites that come with Adirondack chairs, all sites come with water and electric (probably sewer hook up too but we didn't talk about that). If I didn't own land up here to boondock on, I'd stay here in a heartbeat. You should give it a try!

I looooove this campground! I've been here a few times with friends over the past few years. This…read morepast weekend we had one of my favorite camp sites. I woke up to the most beautiful view. The skies were blue, surrounded by green as far as the eye can see, birds were chirping and the warm sun beaming. The campground is beautifully maintained, everyone is very respectful of other campers. The sites are far enough away from one another that it really feels like a camping trip. It's also close enough that I can walk over to the next site to visit a friend. All the sites come with a small cabin. It's very basic but it's sufficient if you chose not to tent camp or if you bring kids or dogs and prefer to stay inside. I woke up to bunnies running all over the campsite. What a view and what an experience! A friend camping near the water spotted a baby brown bear! If you're looking for a fun camping experience with friends, family, your partner or just by yourself I would highly recommend this place! The views are amazing, the locations is clean and well kept, there's firewood that can be purchased on site, it's a quick 90 minute drive if you're coming over from Philadelphia.

We stayed at the Creekside campsite and definitely want to return. We had an absolutely fantastic and serene time on their property. I was very excited to get to see a Black Bear up somewhat close, which also can be scary if you aren't expecting it, but the owners let you know and it seems fairly common there. At dark, we also saw three chirping otters floating down the river together... very adorable. It is way more wild than other campsites, so of course leave your food and cooler in your car. Definitely BE CAREFUL when using the suspension bridge as it slants a bit and can get wet! Firewood will be under a tarp next to some crates along the beginning of the main camp road.

The visitor center is open and AC'd, has a nice nature display and is where you check-in. The camp site is has electricals for RVs. We're definitely coming back next year

Located on the outskirts of historic Jim Thorpe, this county park is perfect for a family getaway…read more Mauch Chunk Lake is about 115 miles from New York City and about 85 miles from Philadelphia. Swimming is one of the most popular activities, but one can only do it while lifeguards are on duty. On the beach, visitors can enjoy access to play equipment for children, a food and refreshment stand, and a beach pavilion. However, as parking can be limited in Jim Thorpe on weekends, one could arrive early to secure a spot; otherwise, use one of the pre-paid reserved parkings at $26, including the parking fee and 2 round-trip tickets every Saturday and Sunday throughout October. A shuttle bus begins from this park at 10 a.m. and runs every 10-15 minutes to the Opera House, which my partner, his aunt and I did last Saturday while attending their popular Fall Foliage Festival.
