Four secluded campsites along Bear Creek in the Poconos, feature spacious safari tents with queen bunk beds, covered dining area, a deck to set up an additional 6 person pop up tent. In addition we have “Check Point Shed” where campers can borrow gear. Drive into your campsite immediately you will hear the sounds of a babbling creek, by giant rhododendrons under magnificent hemlocks and oaks - a truly natural and relaxing experience. Campers can enjoy a short hike to our private waterfall with swimming hole or lay in a hammock by the creek. The sites are surrounded by 400 acres of privately owned natural forest with several miles of marked trails. The campsite is adjoined by Lehigh Gorge State Park and PA state game lands. Sturdy shoes or hiking boots are recommended for hiking. Just minutes away there are outdoor adventures galore: white water rafting, kayaking, biking on rail to trails bike paths, skirmish paint ball, Glen Onoko Falls and Hickory Run state parks. The mountaintop entertainment venue Penns Peak and the historic town of Jim Thorpe are just 15 minutes from the campsite. Jim Thorpe has many fine eatery’s, shops, the Lehigh Gorge Railway and Asa Packer mansion

This location is perfect for families. There is a small play area and zip line that’s great for kids. Scott was incredibly helpful by meeting us upon arrival and walking us through all we needed to know logistically. Everything you need is at the site. My family and I wish we booked a longer stay. We’ll be back. Thanks, Scott!

Scott was an awesome host and took the time to explain the area in detail. Delivered things we needed quickly and really appreciated the ability to spend time on his land.

Bear Creek Falls Getaway
We had a wonderful stay at Bear Creek Falls Getaway! Scott was super welcoming and provided all the info & supplies we could need for our stay. The property was gorgeous. Our dog loved splashing in the creek while we sat back and took in all the beautiful surroundings. We’ll definitely be back!

Bear Creek Hideaway in the Poconos
Camp Dietrich is one of our favorite places to camp! Scott always has the campsite stocked with anything you could think you need. It is the perfect weekend getaway. We brought our parents and brother along with us this trip and there was plenty of space for the five of us. You can hike on the property and go to their watering hole and it’s such a beautiful place to visit. We will for sure be back!
