poconoceancity Posted July 19, 2019 Report Posted July 19, 2019 Hello everyone, We’re in the Pokes and planned on hitting Montage Water Park today. Just found out they are closed. What’s something fun to do outside anywhere within an hour of Lake Harmony? Thanks!
RidgeRacer Posted July 19, 2019 Report Posted July 19, 2019 Depends on what you're looking to do. Off the top of my head...H2ooohhh, bushkill falls, Kalahari, Ricketts Glen, camelbeach, hawk falls, Boulder field, train ride in Jim Thorpe, Lehigh gorge, stores in Jim Thorpe, there's a nice driving range / mini golf in sciota with some good eats nearby.If I think of anything else I'll post 2
theprogram4 Posted July 19, 2019 Report Posted July 19, 2019 there are 2 fireworks stores near camelback 3 2
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted July 19, 2019 Report Posted July 19, 2019 (edited) Out of all places your kids will like Camelbeach the best..can also do mountain coaster, alpine slide and zip line. Funny cause half my summer loving friends are down the shore this week. Edited July 19, 2019 by GrilledSteezeSandwich 1
JFskiDan Posted July 19, 2019 Report Posted July 19, 2019 https://no9minemuseum.wixsite.com/museum I really want to check this out, so if by chance you go, let me know what its like. Notice they recommend you bring a light jacket since the mine is about 50 degrees year round. 3

jordan Posted July 19, 2019 Report Posted July 19, 2019 Why the heck would you go to Montage water park when you are closer to Camelbeach, which is one of the top water parks in the country? 1

This. i would rather go hang out with the trashy people from PA at Montage, than the trashy people from NJ/NY at Camelback. But i would also rather just run under the hose than drag myself to a waterpark. Edited July 19, 2019 by JFskiDan 2 1
jordan Posted July 19, 2019 Report Posted July 19, 2019 Camelbeach rocks! seriously. don't listen to the naysayers. 1
theprogram4 Posted July 19, 2019 Report Posted July 19, 2019 (edited) as someone who has lived in all 3 areas, NJ and NYC people are significantly better to hang with than scranton/wilkes barre people (unless you like heroin)(or are Schifdawg, he's good people) Edited July 19, 2019 by theprogram4
toast21602 Posted July 19, 2019 Report Posted July 19, 2019 I’d rather not hand out with any trashy people. 1
poconoceancity Posted July 19, 2019 Author Report Posted July 19, 2019 It was trash city, ended up at Barley Creek for now.
RidgeRacer Posted July 19, 2019 Report Posted July 19, 2019 Maybe too late but I forgot to mention Beltsville, Mauch Chunk lake Park or the lake at Hickory Run if lakes are your thing. You can't really escape the tourists. There are a higher percentage of tourists at certain places (CB) than others but they're everywhere. It is what it is. 1
JFskiDan Posted July 20, 2019 Report Posted July 20, 2019 If you thought CB was a little trashy, beltsville wont score high marks. Which is a shame, it could be a pretty cool place. 1
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted July 20, 2019 Report Posted July 20, 2019 I’ve had this song stuck in my head since about Noon.

Dorney Park owns all in terms of trashiness along with some thuggery..the head security guy in this video is now a South Whitehall township police officer.
