Great Clean Lake! I absolutely love coming here. There's a bit of everything you can do with your family here at Mauch Chunk Lake. There's a super clean lake for you to enjoy. They also have a section for grilling. Or maybe you would like to enjoy a cayak ride in the lake, maybe a little boat ride. That's all available as well. And for those families that take the drive but don't want to drive back home, they offer camping sites. You may need to book camping in advance but you won't have to go far for some fun. Might I add, Downtown Jim Thorpe, PA is one of my favorite places to visit when in Pennsylvania.

A place to enjoy alone or with the family, it has an area to make a grill, with tables, it is a bit neglected but it does the job. It has an area to bathe in the river, there is a spa with a security limit and saves lives. You can take fast food or eat something fast since they have a small sale. They were only accepting cash. It has a bathroom and changing room area. It has parking lots. Good signage and roads. It has other areas for those who want to camp and can set up their tents and awnings. It is separated from the spa area and the grill area. They also have another area for small trailers. $10 cash is charged per person. In general you can have a nice day, it's up to you. It is close to the tourist area of ​​Jim Thorpe and you can visit the shops and take the train. I recommend it and would go back…

Less people, less crowded. Much better weekend experience here than at neighboring Beltzville, most likely because you have to pay to get in. It’s $10 for adults and $7 for children if you’re visiting out of county. It’s about half of that if you live in Carbon County. Downsides are…. Lots of bugs, the grounds aren’t exceptionally maintained and you cannot grill. Still so beautiful there none the less.
