Resica Falls Scout Reservation, Scout reservation with waterfall in East Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania
The reservation spans over 1,028 acres of natural space along Big Bushkill Creek, featuring woodland areas, camping grounds, and outdoor activity facilities.
Founded in 1957 after joint purchase by Philadelphia and Valley Forge Councils in 1955, the camp originally consisted of three main sections: Big Springs, Great Bend, and Firestone.
The reservation functions as an educational center where scouts develop outdoor skills, environmental awareness, and leadership through structured programs and activities.
Visitors can access fishing spots, rent cabins during fall season, and participate in summer camp programs through online registration at the reservation office.
A 45-foot waterfall marks the central natural feature of the property, while the Thomas Richards Arena and Sir John Templeton Dining Hall serve as main gathering spaces.
