Don't leave the Poconos until you shop here, and be prepared to fill the trunk up with great deals. It has a great location just off the highway. They even have a small playground for the kids.
Advice: Make sure to wear comfortable clothing and sneakers because is a lot of walking from store to store. And go early to beat the crowds!

Entertainment & Activities
Located inside the Stroud Mall, the Cinemark Theater is quite popular in this area. The popcorn is good, and you get one free refill. The areas are clean and seats are in working order. There is ample parking outside, and access in and out of the theater is very easy. This is our primary choice whenever we want to see a film.

Although pretty small compared to other casino's I've visited, there was a very nice variety of games (including a dedicated poker room)! Gypsies night club is a night place to hangout on a Saturday night.

Barley Creek is located right by Camelback Resort. It's a solid place to eat and drink. It gets crowded on Sat. night due to it's proximity to the mountain but it's worth the wait. Try the whiskey burger with the homemade bbq sauce!
