Stairway Lake
18 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....

Pinch Pond Family Campground
18 miles away
This is a nicely maintained campground... nice showers, laundry facilities, pool, store, etc. Lots to do in the area. Downside is the noise of the Turnpike which is so close you could touch it. If you are a heavy sleeper, this is the place for you! Otherwise, try to get a site as far away from the tpk as possible... even then, you still hear the rumble but not as much....

Knoebels Resort and Campground
19 miles away
...eirs very clean. While it's a pain sometimes because there is no sewer or water hookup, we always have a great time there. My daughter who is now 13 started going on roller coasters there when she was 9 and now we can't keep her off of coasters where ever we go. I also like the fact that we can walk back and forth to our site. Sometimes when we go to amusement parks I really don't feel like going on the rides, but I do because I had to pay to get in. At Knoebels you either buy tickets and go on the rides you want or sometimes they have a handstamp. If you don't want to go on rides, you can still walk around and enjoy the park without having to pay. I also like the fact that it is geared towards families. In the amusement park you can wear a bathing suit when you are on the water rides, but to walk around you have to wear clothes, you can't walk around in just your suit(guys and girls) and if your shirt says or shows anything offensive you have to either wear your shirt inside out or leave the park. This is definately a great family park and the people who work there are very friendly...
