A summer trip that both you and the kids will love is closer than you think.

School's out, and it's time to make some memories in the Poconos! Just a few hours' drive from major cities like New York and Philadelphia, the Pocono Mountains region of northeastern Pennsylvania is easy to get to for quick road trips and relaxed staycations. Make the most of the 93 days of summer vacation and take advantage of affordable midweek deals. Pack up the family for a trip full of the fresh air and fun things to do that have made the Poconos a popular getaway spot for generations of visitors. Discover rich local history, delicious dining and family-friendly events in our small towns, with world-class accommodations and attractions spread throughout our 2,400 square miles of scenic natural beauty and outdoor adventure.

Relax poolside as the little ones splash the day away at some of the largest indoor waterpark resorts in the country and the largest outdoor waterpark in Pennsylvania. From miniature golf to laser tag, from bounce houses to bumper boats, our area's family fun parks are home to a wide array of popular activities that all ages will love, and local escape rooms and indoor play zones offer plenty of options for rainy day fun. Head to interactive museums like the Quiet Valley Historical Living Farm or sign up for a discovery class at Pocono Environmental Education Center. Plan an outing to summer events including special train tours, classic county fairs and even a NASCAR race weekend.

Many family resorts and local businesses offer great special offers and packages so that you can save on your visit, whether it's a day trip, a midweek break, or a well-deserved, week-long getaway. See you in the Poconos!
