Camelbeach Mountain Resort Review

Dont go unless you have kids. It's a 24 hour playground.

We went to the zip line for my father's birthday and it was a great choice, the staff was very nice.

Amazing location, great lifts, even though it hadn t snowed much yet the slopes were really well-prepared. The staff was also super friendly and helpful.

Lots of ski trails,, very good place to go for lots of fun activities.. One of the best places in Pennsylvania

I loved the place!!!! First cause of my 3 back surgeries they put us right by the elevator which was so nice. Then the day sheets they gave you was very cool I stayed 5 nights 6 days and everything was awesome. The staff was cool, the mas massage was very good to die for. The beds as you see in pics below I didnt want to leave the bed lol. And the sights wow with the mountains in the back the wild life deers are not so scared. Geez I can go on and on. Taco joint I think it's called Zacks taco Shack is toooo diieee for WOW me being Mexican this reminded me of the roach coaches back home California its a good think when I say roach coach lol. See pics for rest the water bar was awesome but some people drank all day and didn't go to the bathroom I went 5 times and it seemed like no one else did eww lol

Whole resort (accommodations) is non pet-friendly. There is no option as a guest to have your pet with you and in 21st century this is a real shame. Not a single dedicated room.

Excellent facilities. Well trained staff. Friendly.

Came out for a day trip and managed to ski from open to close on Christmas. Had a good time, enjoyed all the runs, wish I could have stayed longer. Upset that so many of the runs were closed and not snow covered that day.

Took a snowboarding lesson and then tried out the smaller hill. Wish the food was cheaper and better, but seems most ski resorts have the same idea as far as that goes.

Wonderful place for adults & children. Was afraid to go zip lining but Morris (worker) told me how smooth the zip line was & I tried it. He was right. I'm glad I did the 4000 ft ride. Every worker was so polite & asked how we enjoyed the different rides. Can't wait to go back with my daughter & granddaughter.

Strangely fun terrain, some decent verticals on par with the best of the Mid-Atlantic, very friendly bar has a west coast vibe. Far too hard packed (icy) at night and the novice boarders make sure it stays that way. Needs grooming in turns at night for safety. Damn near ice skating and some poor lighting makes it kind of sketchy for beginners. Pretty basic for everyone else though ICE always ratchets up the challenges. Equal with Blue Mt in scope when fully open, Not the level of scenery or condition of snow of Elk but a bigger day. If you can go to Catskills, Adirondaks, Berkshires or Vermont..do so they are much better at everything. If not..this will do fine for everyone in small doses. Lots of New Jersey here, the good and the bad.

Solid mountain for beginner to intermediate terrain. Long lift lines and limited vertical, but hey, it's closer than Vermont!

Pretty nice mountain to ski on. Went on presidents day weekend. awesome deal if you ski after 3pm with half price lift tickets. ski rentals are reasonable at 28 a person.

Beware if you dont have 4 wheel drive, I would not drive with bad road conditions, they do drop some sand, but the road leading up to the parking lot was rough.

Bunny hill was very challenging to get to, lift tickets are very expensive for size of mountain

this is one of the best water and mountain park i have been to

Prices have gone up! The coaster is supposed to be disinfected, what a joke!!! The employee did a short squirt with something, not even hitting every part that was touched, and no wipe down! I watched the employee repeatedly do this.... great way to let the germs go free!

Great place. One of my favorites in PA. First time buying a season pass. Need a few more trails open

This has become the spot to be when the weather gets hotter.

Went to the waterpark. Very crowded, but still enjoyable. Employees were polite and helpful.

Tons to do. Just avoid the crowds as much as possible

We went here couple years ago. If you have children, you all will have a good time.

Took my son mid week. pre bought tickets. junior tickets were only 5$ less than adults. Parking lots were empty but still had to pay 40 dollars to park, which I ve never ever seen at any other ski resort. Locker s were 15$-30$. Additionally there were a lot cans/garbage on the mountain. Things to consider before going.

Beautiful place, delicious food, great fun especially for children

Cant complain.
Bring your own coffee the coffee there is 3$ per cup around and it was awful. Any coffee snobs please fyi. Bring your own mini brewer and cream/water. I cant start my day without a acceptable morning cup.
Water may have been bad from tap. Smothered out the flavors of the brew.

Winter time its a total destination.
Trust me its money well spent for a day trip or two lol.

Will be a staple in my seasonal vacations

The kids lessons are great but the overall mountain is extremely busy and parking can be challenging.

Great ski resort. Fast ski loft. Lots of longer trail to come down.

It's pa skiing a d get a packed on Saturdays. Lots of beginners go here and make it difficult to navigate the slopes.

My son who has Down Syndrome has been wanting to ski for the longest time seeing that all his siblings ski or snowboard. With skepticism I signed him up for lessons at Camelback. It has been an awesome experience for him. He has the best teachers Ty and Treavor. They are so patient and understanding making provisions for my sons needs as they see fit. Big shoutout to Ty and Treavor.

The staff was excellent. They were informative, able to answer all my questions and provided a great customer service experience. I will definitely visit again.

Skiing was pretty good but the burgers are bad and my fries were cold

I appreciate the long fluid greens. Perfect for a beginner like me, maybe next time I'll be ready to tackle a blue.

Overall disappointed Skiing experience. I have never been to a ski resort where you have to pay for all day parking and the lift lines were outrageous. Only silver lining was that they had nice outdoor seating at their restaurants. My main complaints were their COVID protocols WHICH WERE NONEXISTENT.
I have been to a couple of ski resorts in the area this year. Every resort had enhanced sanitizing stations throughout the resort, easily accessible maps, even one way markers inside the lodge for rentals etc. and of course a mask policy that was enforced to make everyone feel safe.
Camelback resort had not a SINGLE bottle of hand sanitizer in the lodges or common areas, no digital maps, no one way markers and let me tell you about how they weren't enforcing masks..
I'd say half the people in the EXTREMELY long lift lines had masks on. Most other had a piece of cloth that could cover their face if a ski patrol member were to walk by but would disappear once they walked past. The employees loading the lifts and managing crowds DIDN'T SAY A WORD TO ANYONE about masks. I had expected to see more passes pulled for this but it didn't seem like anyone cared. I was so enraged I started calling people out in the lodge for not wearing them. It's a procedure to keep everyone safe yet it seemed like everyone treated it as a vacation where they didn't have to worry. And there was no staff enforcing. Don't waste your money or your safety..

I've never stayed over night at Camelback but I'm only 40minutes away so it's really the best place for me for day trips. The slopes are always well groomed. It's best to go during weekdays because weekends are extremely crowded and sometimes unbearable.

Loved our visit on 1/24 Their restaurant was good for my first visit. The venison burger was delish and the beer flowed wonderfully. Usually go to Ski Roundtop, but this was a nice for a change. Much longer trails than Roundtop, but it is taller, too, @ 2100 vs. 1300 ft high. Dropped my helmet and goggles while on the lift, but was fortunate the lift operator walked up quite a steep grade to get them for me.

Cool skiing experience. Loved the fact that they were open until almost 9pm.

Camelback is very clean and a pretty place to hang out in basically the scenery is very green and mountainous

Pretty nice. Been going for years pahroh is fun and so is nile mile and the anthony trial.

When you print your tickets on line from camelback site you get s deal 4 people for $ 129.00. We spend the whole day there kids going on the slides and water rides, napping, going to lazy river. You can't bring food there only 1 bottle water per person . Food there is a fast food little to $$. Place is clean.

One of the best water parks I've visited before, lots of tubes, very tasty food and good prices, clean, they have a pool with waves its like being in a real beach, its a nice place for vacation and having and unforgettable experience, this place is specially for families and kids, you won't regret, recommended, the price its cheaper when you doing it with a 4 people group.

The kids had a great experience, the loft is ok, not cozy for winter.

Visited for the first time this last weekend. Very quick service, little waiting time for the lifts and staff very friendly. Slopes had a good range and were a very enjoyable ride.We will definitely be back.

I love this mountain! Trails are usually in very good condition and most open always. When you go on a weekday even during a holiday week, you get the best experience. No wait for lifts, and not crowded with inexperience skiers!

The resort is very nice and extremely clean. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The skiing and snowboarding is great, the mountain is well maintained

Positively the worst experience. From parents not supervising their kids whom throw large rocks to security telling us that we signed a waiver so they don't care... 1st of 5 days a ready to leave.

Too crowded. If you are going there for skiing, expect spending half the day in the lines.

Lots of inexperienced skiers. Icy rimes of fake snow. Nice staff. Good lodges.

We went with our niece and nephew for the mountain coaster and snow tubing and had a blast. Coaster was a good length and surprisingly thrilling. If you like sledding, you'll like tubing, though these are straight down runs with no turns. Staff was organized and kept the lines flowing.

Only went for the snow tubing. Lines were super long and there aren't clear signs of where the different entrances were.

I loved the place. It was fun and the employees were super nice.

An average mountain. Below average ticket and rental experience (90+ minute wait). Fair pricing but nothing to sing about. Better to rent off mountain for cheaper prices and a much better service.

Great conditions, staff was great, prepping more terrain

So much fun!! If you re a beginner and hesitant, don t be! Excellent skiing resort.

Camelback proved to be a great time even in the summer with the outdoor and indoor water parks, and ziplining. Would definitely return, though they could use a bit more training for staff because we were constantly told wrong information all the time.

I love this place its so relaxing but still close to home

Went to the snow tubing. Thought it was very cold, bad heating in the lodge didn't help. Dirty Lodge and bathrooms never saw them cleaned. Ride not worth the hour wait in the cold.

I ve been here a few times prior to Covid. And then recently I went beginning of Jan 2021 during the weekdays and once again in early March. Parking fee is new and that was a surprise. They literally hunt you down the moment you arrive. The Covid precautions & face mask enforcement in areas is really nonexistent. (At the lines waiting for equipment rentals INDOORS, people didn t have masks on, noses poking out, security and staff says NOTHING). Except maybe if they decide to single you out in my case. I was in line for the Sullivan Express outdoors and didn t have mine on (because the strings broke) when there were literally 10 other people behind me who didn t have theirs on but the same woman said nothing. The only difference? I m a POC and everyone else there were white, and so was the staff woman. She was nice about it saying thank you for understanding and even had an extra mask but literally the rest of the day, I ve heard no one else get called out even if they didn t have any face covering. So there was that.
More slopes and lifts were closed. When I went a few weeks ago, the snow was really icy. So be careful. If anyone has a better place in Poconos PLEASE LET ME KNOW !! I m going to be nice and at least give 3 stars. But this place is not it after Covid.

Awesome place to learn to ski runs are short so it s easy to meet your friends down at the base

Super awesome place to have the family at for the day ot weekend

Very nice place but smaller resort, best to go during the week if you can

This place is amazing great service, nice rooms, the staff is amazing, & the skiing is very good.

Love this place

Good place to go snowboarding/skiing this has been my main mountain for 5 years now. And the conditions are not always that great but there is always something open.

The trails are... Meh. Don't expect powdered snow. Skiing is skiing and Camelback can be very fun. The lodge is very nice

We were skeptical to book a room here because of Covid-19 but we enjoyed our time A LOT! They could ve done a better job to ensure everyone is wearing their face masks in public areas, but at the same time you must remember you are also at a waterpark where face masks are not worn. If you are scared of Covid I suggest you not go to any hotels (not entirely the resorts fault). They have caution signs and distance stickers EVERYWHERE. The staff are very nice and rooms were clean!

My boyfriend and I enjoyed the outdoor waterpark more than the indoor because it was bigger and obviously outside. We had a great weekend at Camelback and are actually going back this weekend with friends!
