<strong>Hickory</strong> <strong>Run</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>Park</strong><br />

In the Western Poconos, this large campground<br />

is primarily forested, however there is a grassy, fairly<br />

open section. It has modern restrooms with hot<br />

showers and a sanitary dump station. A camp store<br />

sells general camping supplies, ice, firewood and<br />

food.<br />

The Bear Truths<br />

Black bears are wild animals and are stronger and<br />

faster than people. Bears use their claws to tear apart<br />

rotting logs to find food, and those claws also work<br />

well to open garbage cans and coolers.<br />

Black bears have an excellent sense of smell.<br />

Aromatic scents coming from your personal items<br />

can attract a curious and hungry bear from a<br />

great distance. Bears are attracted to the smell of<br />

toothpaste, deodorants, air fresheners, food and<br />

even the clothes worn while cooking. Store all items<br />

inside a vehicle.<br />

Bears that are dependent on eating human food<br />

can become aggressive when people get between<br />

them and food.<br />

If you come in contact with a black bear, try<br />

chasing it away by making loud noises like yelling,<br />

honking a car horn or banging a pot. Notify a park<br />

employee if you have difficulties with bears.<br />

Pets<br />

Pets are permitted at designated campsites in<br />

this campground. Please contact the park office or<br />

contact station for guidelines for pets.<br />

Pets are prohibited in swimming areas and all<br />

overnight areas, except the campgrounds involved<br />

in the pet program. Guide dogs and service dogs are<br />

not considered pets.<br />

Camping Season<br />

This campground is open the second Friday of<br />

April and closes in mid-December. Shower facilities<br />

and the dump station are not available after the third<br />

Sunday in October.<br />

Reserving a Site<br />

Most campsites in <strong>Pennsylvania</strong> state parks can be<br />

reserved 11 months in advance to noon of the day<br />

of arrival. Campers without a reservation arriving<br />

after noon should check at the contact station or<br />

near the campground entrance for instructions.<br />

Reservations can be made using MasterCard,<br />

VISA, American Express and Discover credit cards<br />

or personal, traveler’s and cashier’s checks. To<br />

receive a confirmed reservation, full payment must<br />

be received by the Bureau within ten days of making<br />

the reservation.<br />

To reserve a campsite, visit www.visitPAparks.<br />

com, or call 888-PA-PARKS (888-727-2757),<br />

Monday to Saturday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. except on the<br />

Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and New Year’s<br />

Day holidays.<br />

Campsite Issuing<br />

Advance reservations are available for almost<br />

all campsites. Unreserved sites are available on a<br />

first-come, first-served basis. If an employee is not<br />

available, read posted instructions and check the<br />

“After Hours Posting Report” then proceed to an<br />

available site and set up.<br />

The appropriate fee must be paid to a park<br />

employee or deposited in a supplied honor system<br />

envelope before setting up on a campsite.<br />

Cancellations can be handled via the Internet<br />

under “My Account” or by calling the call center.<br />

Cancellations made up to the close of business<br />

seven days prior to your scheduled arrival date will<br />

incur a $10 cancellation fee. If you cancel six days<br />

or less prior to the arrival date, you will forfeit<br />

the first night’s fee or $75, whichever is the lesser<br />

amount. There is a $10 fee assessed for all changes<br />

made to your reservation, except adding nights to<br />

the reservation. Changes to a reservation can be<br />

made at the call center, but not via the Internet. Any<br />

cancellation or change on the day of arrival must<br />
