You’ll feel like you’re staying at an exclusive resort in the Poconos, but you won’t have the traffic and noise. You won’t even have to travel to the Poconos; you can vacation close to home in Schuylkill County.
Echo Valley Campground in Tremont changed ownership about a year ago. Since then, new owners The Campground Guys and Manager Wilmer Hershberger have done extensive landscaping and added a group of tiny houses.
The tiny houses sit along the creek, shaded by towering pine trees. Each has a fully equipped kitchen and a full bathroom and sleeps six people. As an added bonus, each tiny house has its own private hot tub.
Hershberger, who lives on site with his family, said Echo Valley has about 80 RV sites, including pull-through and back-in sites for small to large RVs.
“We have a mix of customers, with some having long-term sites and some coming for one night as they travel,” he said. “There are three bathhouses, including one that is handicapped-accessible.”
Echo Valley also has a campground store, a laundry facility, and free Wi-Fi for guests.
If you’ve wondered what it would be like to live in a tiny house, this is the perfect place to give it a try, Hershberger said. He said the tiny houses are made in Pennsylvania and come equipped with everything a guest would need, from kitchen equipment to bedding.
Echo Valley Campground is at 52 Camp Road, Tremont. For more information, visit echovalleycamp.com or call 570-695-3659.
