The People we have met are amazing and helpful. The campground has a lake with a beach area, you can fish in the lake, boats to rent, a path around the lake which you can walk, game room, playground, volleyball and basketball in large grass area which would be great for other activities, onsite laundry and camp store. The bath house/Bathrooms are maintained and very clean. Linda the owner is always very helpful. Be sure to check out this hidden gem when camping near the Pocono area.

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.

They don't allow certain breeds of dogs, like pit bulls yet they allow a seasonal camper to have a vicious standard poodle. Rosie seems like a nice dog but don't let it fool you.

Edit: I've been made aware that the campground takes theft very seriously. You should make them aware when something goes missing from your campsite. They log missing items & take steps in trying to find the culprits. Thank you Driftstone for addressing my concerns. Outstanding!

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.
