It's right past the Camelback resort, so if it isn't crowded there, traffic should be a breeze getting to the park. The Indian Trail was a bit rocky and a little steep at parts, but the blazes are easy to follow, and the trail was doable for beginners. Make sure you wear good, sturdy shoes. There was plenty of parking and some picnic tables nearby.

Note near the parking lot 3 there's a trailhead with a quest book, it's sweet to leave some memories there. The trails are well marked but some are quite steep, be aware of the elevation changes. There's beautiful lookouts and the view from the top is pristine. Many places to just sit, enjoy and meditate. Only sometimes there's mindless people blasting loud music, but luckily most times you can enjoy the nature in silence at the mountain top. Tip: download a map from the park website before hitting the trails, it will help you greatly to locate yourself while hiking.

The entire trail is comprised by a flat gravel path and foot bridges, and the entire trail offers wonderful views of the lake, the lodge, and some huge private residences abutting the lake. The Lake Trail is 2.1 miles and closely follows the shoreline of Mountain Lake, if you include the path to and from the lodge. We'd walk this every day if we lived here.

Really beautiful site, but it was hard to find. The address in the tour book took us to a closed,…read moreprivate road, and it's a windy two lane road with no shoulder, so it was also hard to find a place to turn around. There is a bit of a pull off area, and there is a restroom, but when I went off season (warm but not declared in season) it was locked. So mileage may vary on its usefulness. Luckily, if your eagle eyes spot the pullover parking lot, the falls are a pretty short walk. I recommend taking the path to the right to the top of the falls so you can then move down the steep incline instead of going up. The view from the bottom is very pretty. It's a good view and only needs like 20 minutes tops of your time. It was quite doable for my senior mother, but some parts were very slow moving. She enjoyed it, so it does still work for beginners as long as it's not been raining. Would recommend stopping by if you like seeing waterfalls. It's the tallest in the state and very scenic.

After a week of downpours we headed up to the Poconos to chase some waterfalls. Raymondskill was…read morefull of fury exploding over the weir like it had somewhere to be. The mist expanded well over the entire overlook of the middle falls where it swirled and danced almost to the top falls overlook. We parked in the bottom lot and took a light hike to the middle falls overlook - there were steps to the top overlook but my arthritic knee would not allow it so we drove up to the top parking lot and took another easy "hike" to the crest and I am glad we did. Photos don't do justice to the majesty of this natural wonder. The trails are friendly even to the weary and wobbly like me! Easily traversable but could be slippery in bad weather. The complete hike is only about a mile but you can still get a great view at the middle falls platform at roughly 1/2 mile in and out. Majestic & magical Raymonskill is glorious, but after the rain is a thunderous wonder and truly something to behold

The lake is stocked every year with trout and there are plenty of bass, crappies, and pan fish as well. I think boat rentals are about $20/hr. There are plenty of trails but they aren't maintained that well which is actually how I like it. Gives you somewhat of a challenge. Alcohol isn't allowed in PA state parks but if you need to wet your whistle, The Dutchman Tavern is right on Rt. 507 of you go north and Hammerjax Bar and Grill is on the end of Phillps Road about 1 mile from the park.
