    Many people like to go to Greenwood Lake. This lake is so wonderful. There's whitewater on Black Creek for all you thrill seekers; after a long day outdoors HAZLETON MOTOR INN is a tremendous location to spend a night or two. Whitewater Raft Campground is a splendid campground nearby, and you're probably interested in lakes, Upper Owl Creek Reservoir is one of those nearby. Looking for something near Greenwood Lake? Tamaqua Reservoirs is close at hand, and the view  
   of Nesquehoning Mountain is beautiful.
Through the long summer days at Greenwood Lake temperatures are ordinarily in the 70's. During the dark hours of summer temperatures plunge down into the 50's. All through the wintertime the highs are typically in the 20's, and winter nights come with lows in the 10's to Greenwood Lake. If you need a place to stay Ramada Inn Hazleton is a perfect choice, and why not take a little tour to Grassy Meadow Run if you're
 
               here. This lake is so wonderful. The Appalachian National Scenic Trail offers hiking at its best; there are some good whitewater spots on Nesquehoning Creek.
If you came for an overnight stay Rosemount Camping Resort is a fine site to camp, and why not take a refreshing hike along the Pinnacle Trail. Take a hike on the Valley Rim Trail. Greenwood Lake in fact is in the middle of a charming outdoors paradise. Greenwood Dam is an out of the ordinary thing to check out; a golf course close by is White Birch Golf Course.
All the water falling down from the sky makes Greenwood Lake a wet place; the wettest month of the year is frequently August, that's the one that rains the most, and February meanwhile is the driest month.

Stairway Lake
16 miles away
Not to differ from the obscure description given on the site, but Stairway Lake, or the Landingville Dam isn't quite the picture painted by that description. Well...Blue Marsh Ski is a cool half-hour away, you can about jump across Mahannon Creek, Mountain Springs is on the other side of the...mountain. But for real, the Landingville Dam is a decent place for water skiing and bass fishing. It is a superb location for crappie fishing and bird watching. The spillway is a great place for pickerel fishing and the emptying Schuylkill River is a wonderful run on a kayak or canoe. Take 'natural area' and 'desilting basin' with a grain of salt, as this dam is both. Natural enough to see a bald eagle, yet enough of a basin to see hundreds of plastic bottles strewn on the shores. Reasons to come to Landingille: carp, jet skis, foilage, isolation. Reasons not to: total lack of civilization, middle of nowhere, water pollution, isolation....
