Four secluded campsites along Bear Creek in the Poconos, feature spacious safari tents with queen bunk beds, covered dining area, a deck to set up an additional 6 person pop up tent. In addition we have “Check Point Shed” where campers can borrow gear. Drive into your campsite immediately you will hear the sounds of a babbling creek, by giant rhododendrons under magnificent hemlocks and oaks - a truly natural and relaxing experience. Campers can enjoy a short hike to our private waterfall with swimming hole or lay in a hammock by the creek. The sites are surrounded by 400 acres of privately owned natural forest with several miles of marked trails. The campsite is adjoined by Lehigh Gorge State Park and PA state game lands. Sturdy shoes or hiking boots are recommended for hiking. Just minutes away there are outdoor adventures galore: white water rafting, kayaking, biking on rail to trails bike paths, skirmish paint ball, Glen Onoko Falls and Hickory Run state parks. The mountaintop entertainment venue Penns Peak and the historic town of Jim Thorpe are just 15 minutes from the campsite. Jim Thorpe has many fine eatery’s, shops, the Lehigh Gorge Railway and Asa Packer mansion

Bear Creek Falls Getaway
We loved camping on Scott and Christinas property! Everything was perfect! It made packing for camping a breeze! We slept so well in the bunk beds and were very thankful for the heater! They were both attentive and super friendly! The hiking trails are awesome, and the property is just beautiful! We will definitely be back in the summer to do some swimming by the waterfalls!

We loved staying at Camp Dietrich. The camp site was secluded, beautiful, and well maintained. My husband and I love to camp and have all the gear-we were surprised to see we didn’t need the majority of our gear. They had lanterns, cooking equipment, a heater in the tent. Scott was a great host-had maps of his hiking trails and showed us around. We would definitely go back

Loved it
Scott’s place is special. You won’t be disappointed. The campsites are exceptionally well planned and outfitted, with outstanding provisions, for example: kindling, cookware, lanterns, and much more. The waterways on the property provide the magic of the setting and the experience. Scott is a most generous and hospitable host.

This location is perfect for families. There is a small play area and zip line that’s great for kids. Scott was incredibly helpful by meeting us upon arrival and walking us through all we needed to know logistically. Everything you need is at the site. My family and I wish we booked a longer stay. We’ll be back. Thanks, Scott!

Perfection
Amazing campsite, private and peaceful. The surrounding land with all the hikes was icing on the cake and we had a wonderful weekend. Will definitely be back when we can enjoy the water! Thanks Scott
