This lake is so wonderful. Some of the water close by flows, like Barnes Creek, and Meadow Brook Summit is also a splendid location to look at. Be careful coming to the Blue Mountains, you might not ever want to go home again. Hiking along the Sulphur Creek Trail is tremendous fun, and why not camp at Meadowbrook Lodge and Overnight Park since you're here at Gilson Pond. Why not take a refreshing hike along the Bear Camp Trail; after a long day outdoors Long Creek Lodge is a nice place to spend a night or two.
