Spending time on or near the water, especially a lake, is never difficult when we live in PA. After all, our home state has more than 2,500 natural and human-made lakes. With all that water, it’s probably fair to say that we’ll miss some of the hidden gems from time to time. Beltzville Lake in Pennsylvania, for example, may be a bit hidden, but it boasts some of the bluest water in the state.

Nestled in the foothills of the Pocono Mountains, Beltzville State Park spans more than 3,000 acres and boasts the beautifully blue Beltzville Lake.

Definitely bring your beach gear along if you’re visiting during the summer. The 550-foot sandy beach is perfect for a little sunbathing or for drying off after a dip in the cool lake.
