Visitors and locals alike find the highlights of summers in the Poconos often come on or near the water. The summer isn’t complete without visiting a lake, creek, river, or waterfall, taking a dip or launching a boat. The region has no shortage of swimming holes and places to float about, from endless lakes and creeks to the rivers that run through the region. This includes the Delaware River -- the longest free-flowing river in eastern PA. Spanning 282 miles, the Delaware River cuts right through the Poconos with 130 miles along Wayne, Pike, and Monroe counties. While the Upper Delaware – along Wayne and Pike counties – is popular in its own right, most in the region think of the famous Delaware Water Gap when thinking of hitting the river in the Poconos. The Delaware Water Gap cuts th... 08/07/2024

When we picture summer, we often see common images: long lake days, s’mores around the campfire, hiking or biking through shaded, winding trails. Another scene that sparks that summer feeling?

There are several fairs and carnivals that visit the Pocono region each summer, and one of the most popular is the Pocono Mountain Carnival in the town of Mount Pocono. The oldest and largest carnival in the region, Pocono Mountain Carnival is ringing in its 98th year providing endless memories for those in the area.
