Pocono Point RV and Campground

We had a great first visit at the camp ground with our travel trailer. Centrally located to the various sights we wanted to see in the area. The manager Cheyenne was very accommodating and pleasant to deal with. Would definitely return.

Unfortunately it wasn’t what we expected. It felt like a trailer park. I’d say easily 80% of the RV’s there, we’re stationed there permanently. There was absolutely nothing to do. Noise can be heard from passing traffic from the nearby highway. Sewer could be smelled depending on where you walked. Perhaps it is our fault for not doing enough research, but we did a 10 hr round trip for this. We only stayed one out of the three nights we booked.

Easy in and out..and back on I476. Price is OK..noise from the Turnpike is noticeable. But a good stop for a Jim Thorpe visit.

As soon as we stepped into the cabin we saw bed bug traps all around the bed. We called to ask what is going and they said there are no bed bugs and that it’s just there for precaution. Foolishly believing the host we stayed. The next morning I woke up to small red bumps on my skin. Still I wanted to believe the hosts and not assume it was not a bed bug bite. Early in the morning my partner and I saw a small bug crawling on a kitchen cabinet where we scanned it with a bug identification app and was told it’s a bed bug.

We immediately contacted Airbnb support and the hosts. We told the hosts what happened and they denied the proof of my bite marks being from bed bugs and the picture we showed them. They said the picture we showed them was not from their cabin and not true. According to them bed bugs are only on beds and not on wood. You would thinking running a park you would be educated enough to know bed bugs do not just reside on beds. We went back to the cabin to check out and throw our items into bags to not get them in our home. Guess what we found while getting our stuff bagged… a bed bug on the bed. We took a video of that with the room so they cannot deny anything now.

Do not stay here unless you like being gaslight and getting bed bugs.

Lowest prices around for RVs and tent camping, and is centrally located in Lehighton, close to all kinds of outdoor activities, restaurants, and shopping. I got a senior and cash/check discount, too. Tara, the general manager, is very accommodating, and you can even call her
after hours, if needed. She and her husband, George, both maintain the park. They have a fully stocked camping store, a game room including a pool table, laundry facilities, showers, restroom, and a swimming pool. There's even a stream on their property that is stocked with trout in early spring.
