Mount Pocono Campground

Nice location and great place to camp and unwind. There were friendly guests in my experience (we were near mostly regular, repeat campers to this campground) , clean pool, nice site, and the staff was not overbearing or asking us to be super quiet at son early time like 9 or 10 am. We visited my parents for a night over the summer, and had a great time. I enjoyed my time at the casino right down the road, and enjoyed drives through beautiful and historic parks, bridges, towns, etc. Make sure you get to the waterfalls early on in the day or you will miss them!

I just saw a poor review of my favorite summer place to visit. I was there 3 months ago when this person who is complaining about the cold states that his children needed heat. This is camping. If you cannot brave the cold then you should NOT be camping. Check the weather before you leave!!! I was at the site adjacent to these people that were complaining about the cold that weekend. THEY WERE RUNNING A GENERATOR!!! I was kept up the previous night because of their generator and was woken up at 6:00 a.m. the next morning with the running of their generator!! I go camping for peace and quiet!!! Not to hear city noises such as a generator waking me!! That is the reason that the camp owner was up at these individual sites! These campers were being inconsiderate of the people who were trying to get away into the quiet for a long weekend. I called the camp owner and complained! I have been going to this campground for 6 years and have never had a bad experience besides this one with the loud neighbors. I give Mount Pocono 5 stars every time. I love the stuff and I love that they keep the campgrounds and restrooms/showers clean. They have a person who is in there at least 2-3 times a day cleaning! I would highly recommend this campground to families!!!

I really want to give 0 star but it is not possible. From check in the staffs were rude to us. We rented five tent sites. The weather was unusual on Sept 1st, 2017. It went down to 38 degree during night time. We were playing cards until 1:30 AM. When we went to sleep, we found out that electricity is not working. There is no way we cloud sleep without small heater on because of cold weather. We called the phone number we found online few times, no one answered the phone. We went to office which close at 11 PM but got the manager's number to call from near by pay phone. We called the owner / manager Debbie to check the electricity for us. She came after about 10 to 15 minutes, she started yelling for no reason and she was in very bad mood and very bad attitude. I guess we disturbed her sleep. When she arrived one of the kids (about 2 years old) was crying because heater was not working and she wake up in middle of the night. Debbie (manager) told us the baby can't cry and it is quite time. What a non sense? Anyways, she has no clue what to do when electricity is not working and she started blaming us that we might have done something. She told us it might be a major issue and started blaming that we caused the issue. She told us this can't get fix and told us to stay without electricity. We had to explain her that we need heater because of kids. After few tries, she did something that fix the issue. We asked her that what was wrong? She was clue less. That made us all nervous because weather was very clod and we were with 7 kids. Anyways, we planned to camp for three night but short our trip to just one day. Next day the forecast predicated lot of rain and cold weather, so we thought if the electricity goes out again and if they can't fix it than the kids will be sick. After cleaning the sites, we ask them to check the sites. Again, the manager Debbie came to check the sites, she was very rude. The sites were even cleaner than even before we rented. She could not find anything wrong, so she show one pile of onion somewhere and asked us to pick up that. We were all looking at each other that how low someone people can go. We been to many other campsites. We have to clean the camp sites every where but they have cleaning staff who pick up some small left over garbage and inspect the site after guess check out. But I guess, they want to run the business with bare minimum staff. Anyways, they don't have any security after 11 PM. It is very hard to get help after 11 PM. That is red flag for security purpose. Also, during day time, I notice only one person picking up garbage and one lady cleaning restrooms. I could not find any other cleaning or helping staff on ground. Other camp sites have many more staffs. I think they want to run the business with maximum profit without worry about guest security or cleanness concern. Also, want to mention one more issue, we rented sites with water and electricity, but the water was not available per site. There was one water connection shared with five sites and also the water connection was far from site. Not convenient at all. Avoid if possible this camp ground.

We love this campground. It's close to Mt.Airy casino, Pocono International Raceway, Kalahari water park, one-day road trips. The campground is well taken care of with a huge pool and a playground for the little ones. Very dog friendly. The owner and staff are super and plan functions and festivities thru out the season. We have been camping here since 2013.

It's a very cramped place but the other campers are very friendly. The owner seemed grumpy and unfriendly. I smiled at her and she glared at me. The best part about this campground was the small trail that led to an abandoned farm house. There wasn't any signs to mark the trail and the beautiful house had weeds growing around it. If it were more taken care of, it could be a gorgeous tourist attraction! I don't think we will be coming back here because it's so cramped.
