Get Wet ‘n Wild In The Poconos

Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains have long been a popular destination for a weekend getaway. However, the region—just 1.5 hours away from Manhattan—is drawing more and more families as the new indoor water park capital of the Northeast. Camelback Resort’s Aquatopia Indoor Water Park opened in early May, and Kalahari Resorts plans to open Phase I of their 150-acre Pocono property this July. For your vacation planning purposes, we’ve broken the scene down park by park, from the most heart-pounding features to what to do once you’ve toweled off. Dive in!
