Pocono Mountains in March

Not the best time

March isn't ideal for Pocono Mountains. Consider a different month.

All Months

Summer brings warm lake weather and peak family season. Water temperatures hit 75°F by July, perfect for swimming and boating. But you'll pay premium prices and fight crowds at popular spots like Bushkill Falls. Fall delivers the famous foliage show from late September through mid-October. The maple and oak forests explode in reds and golds, making every drive scenic. Hotels raise rates 30-40% during peak color weeks. Winter transforms the region into a snow sports playground. Jack Frost Big Boulder and Camelback Mountain offer decent skiing, though don't expect Vail-level terrain. Spring arrives late - May is your best bet for mild weather and smaller crowds. The waterfalls run strongest from snowmelt, and wildflowers carpet the forest floors.
