Located in Northampton County at the confluence of the Delaware and Lehigh Rivers, most campgrounds in this region operate from April through November with a few offering year-round access.

What to do
Fishing opportunities: Pocono Point provides creek-side camping with fishing access directly from a stream that flows from Beltzville Dam. "Nice lake for fishing. About an hour from a motorbike riding park," notes Luis B. from Pocono Point.
Outdoor adventures: Blue Mountain RV and Camping Resort offers mountain biking and hiking options during warmer months. "Staff was nice & showed us to our campground, hauled our firewood, and checked in regularly to make sure we didn't need anything. There were endless activities from hiking to mountain biking," says Rosanna C.
Disc golf course: Several campgrounds feature recreational facilities beyond standard amenities. "If your into Disc golf this place has that too," mentions Lois D. about Blue Mountain Resort, which transforms from a ski area in winter to a camping destination in warmer months.

Tips from RVers
Entrance challenges: Some campgrounds have difficult access points. "The entrance made for a challenging entry up a steep grade, narrow roadway, and sharp turn in. I made it without problems, but it wasn't easy in a 45' motorhome towing a Jeep," warns Matt S. about Stonybrook RV Resort.
Connectivity concerns: Cell service and internet access vary widely. At Village Scene Park, amenities include "30/50 electrical amp on all sites, private mailboxes, public water and sewer hook-ups, 24 hour coin-operated laundry, WiFi (albeit quite low speed)."
Site leveling preparation: Many campgrounds in this region have uneven terrain. "Our site was level and nicely graded. We didn't have any trouble getting in and out and all the hook-ups were well-placed and worked well (including the cable)," reports Nancy W. about Pine Hill RV Park.
