People have been camping in the Poconos for a VERY long time. There are campgrounds all over the map and campsites at state parks and other spots where you can park a camper or pitch a tent.
Recently, Brianna Strunk visited Pocono Camp and Glamp in the Jim Thorpe area and learned how glamping in addition to horseback rides resulted from a former YMCA camp for teens from Philly. The former summer camp has been upgraded to have all the modern amenities that you could ever want or need along with more of your traditional campsites.
The Poconos is a year-round destination for millions and with 24-hundred square miles of mountains, forests, lakes and rivers with historic downtowns and iconic family resorts, it's the perfect getaway for a weekend or an entire week.
