Moon Lake County Park
The park is county owned and a beautiful place to spend some time. Camping, fishing, hiking & swimming, and of course flying are just some of the fun to be had here. It is a 600 acre tract of land with a 48 acre trout stocked lake. There are camper hook ups along with tent sites available for overnight stays. Shower and laundry facilities are also available. A Basketball court, tennis courts, and a softball field are also located in the park. For more information and park regulations please call (570) 477-5467 or (570) 256-3212.

Alternate route, If you are using the directions above from route 81, below is a alternate route that will get you to our flying site. This route should be used when Rt 29N is closed for any reason.
At the intersection of Route 11 and Route 29 N instead of making a right onto Route 29 N stay on Route 11 S and go 3.0 miles and make a right turn on the main road in Hunlockâs Creek (There is a old Post Office on the corner that is not in use), go one half mile and turn right on Hartman Road, go 5.2 miles and make a right turn on Moon Lake Road and follow into Park. This detour is only about two miles longer than coming up Route 29 N; Hartman road is narrow and crooked but should not be a problem.
