Visiting the Poconos and experiencing everything it has to offer, both indoors and out, promises to be one of those vacations that every member of your family will remember fondly for years to come. This trip will be the one your kids tell their own kids, enticing the grandkids to beg for a Pennsylvania getaway as well, and who can blame them? This guide to indoor activities in the Poconos will be the start of something wonderful—a family tradition that could quite possibly go on for generations!
Pocono Indian Museum, 5905 Milford Road in East Stroudsburg
Museums can be a tricky proposition when traveling with children, but the Pocono Indian Museum offers something that appeals to all ages: a free arrowhead with each child admission. Just remember, it’s for the under 18 crowd, not the 18-year-olds that have refused to grow up! Featuring artifacts and exhibits that teach us about the original American inhabitants, the gift shop also sells replicas of their everyday items, allowing everyone to experience a taste of history.
The Mauch Chunk Opera House, 14 W Broadway in Jim Thorpe
Live theater is always fun, and it is even more so when held in a theater built in the late 19th century! While today it is a space primarily meant for music, it’s also a much-loved venue for stand-up comedy. A night at the Mauch Chunk Opera House will be memorable, no matter what you’re here to see.
Karaoke at Shenanigans, 286 Lake Harmony Road in Lake Harmony
Found almost within walking distance of your Lake Harmony hideaway, Shenanigans has been a local hot spot for over 20 years. Offering live entertainment and the opportunity to show your family your singing chops, a night of wings, drinks, and karaoke is an all-American escape and one of the best Poconos indoor activities!
