Delaware Water Gap Camping

[Greased Line Swinger]

I want to take my family camping in the Gap this weekend. We'd like the dog to come too so that rules out Worthington SF. I found a few other campgrounds online that would be possibilities, Dingman's, Harmony Ridge, Bear Creek, and Delaware River Family Campground (kinda far but would do).

I can't find any info on Bear Creek, does anyone know anything about this place?

Also, any info or opinions about any of these places, or maybe a spot I missed, would be greatly appreciated.

I stay there all the time. The campsites are right on the Big Flatbrook. There are some trailers when you first pull in and the tent sites are down on the water. The owners name is Ken and he's pretty laid back (and a state trooper so u know its safe for the fam). The valley there is beautiful. Hope this helped.

Bigbow,
Thanks. It was exactly what I wanted, we had a great trip (except that driving rt. 206 sucks). I didn't take the temp. of the water, but it felt a lot colder than the SBR. How much colder is the Flat Brook than the rivers further south, usually?

The Flat Brook is our most intact trout watershed in the state and lacks the development around our other trout rivers, hence it stays several degrees colder and fishes much deeper into the summer than rivers like the Musky, SBR, etc. It just goes to show what a tree lined stream without flashy runoff can be in NJ. Have fun camping with the family.
