Discover The Eagles Mere Museum
Perched on a 2,200-foot mountaintop in the Endless Mountains of north central Pennsylvania and wrapped around a pristine lake, you will find the small town of Eagles Mere – listed on the National Register of Historic Places recognizing over 200 years of historically-significant homes and buildings.
Traditions, Here to Stay
It is a town with traditions at its core — lake traditions, village traditions, cultural traditions, and, most important of all, family traditions spanning generations past, present and future.
Everything Eagles Mere
As the keeper of the endless amount of history, in which Eagles Mere’s traditions are built, the Eagles Mere Museum is at the heart of it all! The historical Eagles Mere Museum exists to preserve and present the rich and unique history of our village for the benefit and enjoyment of you and your family, friends, visitors, and generations to come.
Discover the Quiet Stillness of the Endless Mountains and the Time Capsule-Quality of the “Town That Time Forgot”
Don’t just “get away for a day” when you can literally go back in time at historic Eagles Mere in scenic Sullivan County.
The first cottages started going up in this tiny, farm town around the middle of the 19th century. Slowly, visitors began to arrive at Eagles Mere . They came to stroll along the lake, and maybe dip a toe in the cool, clear water. Perhaps, they’d wander along Main Street and stop for an ice cream cone. Just about any spot in town offered up a view of the setting sun as the reach of its golden fingers slipped from the undulating Endless Mountains.
Soon, those visitors bought into the whole scene – the dream of Eagles Mere. By the turn of the century, quaint resorts hummed with activity. The song of children resonated from the sandy beach. Newlyweds rowed out in search of a quiet nook or shade tree along the shoreline. A solo Flyfisher cut his line through a summer haze from the bow of a trusty Jon boat.
There wasn’t much to a summer day in Eagles Mere. It was simple. Time seemed to slow a bit. On a busy day, there’d be small flotilla of sailboats on the water, happy, oiled-up families crowding the beach and maybe a short line at The Sweet Shop .
Even at the height of its popularity in the mid-20th century, this was the definition of “bustling” in the secluded mountain resort town. And that’s intentional. The idea behind a trip to Eagles Mere was to restore the soul. Visitors escaped from humming cities to unburden their minds of train whistles and traffic, to breathe fresh air and to gaze in awe at star-speckled skies.
And if you visited Eagles Mere today, you’d find that almost nothing has changed.
Don’t let the peace and quiet fool you. There’s plenty to do.
Throughout summer and fall, the Village Green at Eagles Mere comes alive with activity . From twice weekly outdoor yoga sessions to organized hikes and art-centered activities to major seasonal events, you’ll find a little something for everyone. A few popular events include the Antiques Market, the Bi-Planes, Trains and Automobiles Event and the annual Arts and Crafts Festival . There’s even a century ride for the avid cyclist called the Tour De Shunk.
And the fun doesn’t end once the chill sets in. Every winter (well, almost every winter) when the lake freezes over, the Eagles Mere Volunteer Fire Company creates one of Pennsylvania’s most unique winter attractions. For over 100 years, the Eagles Mere Toboggan Slide has been drawing visitors from far and away. The popular ice slide sends toboggans screaming down Lake Avenue and onto the frozen lake at speeds of up to 45 miles per hour. They even set up a hot chocolate shack and a crackling fire nearby. It’s become one of those secret “must do’s” for adventurous NEPA families.
Shopping and Dining
While you’d be hard-pressed to find a fast-food joint with a drive-thru, there are several unique dining options. The famous Eagles Mere Inn Features a few stops to relax and grab a bite. For a more refined dining experience, check out The 1887. If you’d prefer things a little laid back, head over to AC Little’s Drinkery. And if dining outside is more your speed, you’ll have to grab a spot at On The Rocks Patio.
A leisurely stroll into the village will offer up a few more dining options. You can snag a tasty breakfast at the Eagles Mere Country Store , or lunch at The Barn . And don’t forget dessert at what is likely the town’s most popular hangout – The Sweet Shop.
Throughout the village, you’ll also find a scattering of adorable stops for a little bit of shopping. Peruse antiques. Pick up a few new books. Stock up on delightful home décor. And do it all without getting in the car.
Stay and Play.
Whether you’re planning a long break from the hustle and bustle of your every day, a weekend retreat, or just a day away, Eagles Mere can accommodate. Lodging options include the historic Eagles Mere Inn and the Crestmont Inn Guesthouse . Or, you can find any number of cottages on popular booking sites.
The town also features a handful of fun attractions. The Eagles Mere Country Club offers a challenging golf course with breathtaking “50-mile” mountain top views. Catch up on the town’s rich history at the Eagles Mere Museum . Car buffs can explore a little bit of automobile history at the Eagles Mere Auto Museum . And you have to check out the incredible collection of aviation history at the Eagles Mere Air Museum .
If you’re looking to get outside for some fresh air and fantastic scenery, Eagles Mere is also sandwiched between two amazing state parks. Worlds End State Park is located just over 6 miles north of town. The park features plenty of hiking trails, waterfalls, creek swimming and so much more. Roughly 30 miles to the east, you’ll find the famous Ricketts Glen State Park . And if waterfalls are your thing, you have to check it out. There are more than 20 of them in the park, along with a sandy beach for swimming, picnic areas and 26 miles of hiking trails.
Head for the hills.
Regardless of season, when you’re looking for that quiet place to get away, you might want to note the typical flow of traffic, and head in the opposite direction. Step back in time and experience a vision of rest and relaxation that hasn’t changed for well over 100 years. Slow it down for a bit and keep it simple.
Plan your next day trip to Eagles Mere Historic Village in Pennsylvania’s scenic Endless Mountains .
Eagles Mere Lake is privately-owned and not open to the general public. Access to the lake and its amenities requires community membership, temporary community membership, or guest access through community or local resorts. Please inquire with the Eagles Mere Association for more information.

Eagles Mere: One of Pennsylvania’s Best Family Vacation Destinations (Sponsored)
This article is sponsored by the Eagles Mere Historic Village Inc. Opinions expressed are my own.
Last year, I visited Eagles Mere in northeastern Pennsylvania and uncovered firsthand what a fabulous place it is. In my article , I noted how it seemed the perfect place for families, and how much I hoped I could return someday with my family.
So, I was very excited when I was invited back again and my wife and kids joined me for the trip. Bringing them gave me new insights into what makes this town so unique.
Eagles Mere is a borough in Sullivan County in PA’s Endless Mountains region. It got its start as a resort community in the 19th century as the well-to-do from nearby cities, especially Philadelphia, would escape to the mountains during the summer heat. Its stunning architecture is still fully intact and the town is on the National Register of Historic Places.
Today, people come from all around to spend their summers at Eagles Mere, and the welcoming community atmosphere definitely harkens back to “Norman Rockwell” days otherwise long gone.
While Eagles Mere’s shops, museums, and restaurants are open to everyone, many of the town’s best amenities are only open to members of the Eagles Mere Association. However, those staying at the Eagles Mere Inn , which opened in 1887 and is part of Historic Hotels of America, are given access as part of their stay. This means that you can enjoy the community’s incredible lake, beach, hiking trails, country club, and events with the rest of the community on your vacation.
While there are a lot of fabulous aspects to Eagles Mere, the star of town has to be the spring-fed, 230-acre Eagles Mere Lake, which offers opportunities for swimming, boating, fishing, and hiking.
The northern end of the lake is home to the Eagles Mere Beach. This life-guard protected swimming area offers a great chance to take a dip in the lake’s natural spring water whether you want to simply wade in or you want to jump off the dock immersing yourself in the deep water.
My kids couldn’t get enough of jumping off the dock into the cold and clear waters of the lake, and I felt great knowing that life guards were there in case of any issues.
There is a sandy beach and a grassy area where you can relax, play games, and just enjoy the beauty of this area while enjoying a bite to eat from the nearby Beach Shop snack bar.
Adjacent to the beach is where temporary members can rent a variety of non-motorized boats to explore the lake. My family and I decided to take out a family-sized pedal boat and we all had a great time exploring the lake from this vantage point.
If you’re looking for something that requires a bit less work, you can also climb aboard the Hardly Able, a 100-year old wooden troop launch that plies the lake between late June and Labor Day. Members can hop aboard for a free ride around the lake or to simply cross from one side to the other without having to use their car.
Due to the weather, I wasn’t able to ride this boat during my previous visit to Eagles Mere, so it was a real treat for my family and I to climb aboard on this visit. The ride feels like another step back in time, and make sure to take a moment to appreciate the boat’s incredible history and the unique steering system.
Another way to explore the lake is via the Laurel Path, a two-mile trail planted with 130 year old rhododendrons that encircles the lake. This is a relatively easy hike, though there are enough rocks and roots to keep this from being boring. I really enjoy the hike and the chance to walk past interesting rock outcroppings, massive hemlocks, and the historic boathouses that line portions of the lake.
Of course, if you love hiking or biking, there are hundreds of miles of trails in the nearby Worlds End State Park and Loyalsock State Forest . In fact, there are trails directly from the community that connect in with these, giving you ample opportunities for hikes of just about any length and difficulty.
As a parent, another thing that both my kids and I really enjoyed were the many children’s activities available in Eagles Mere. Special programs abound everywhere.
On the morning of our first day, my children stopped by the Conservancy Cabin, which runs frequent kids programs during the summer months. On the day of their visit, my kids were able to make “bug hotels”, which was a really fun art project. They also enjoyed the cabin’s ropes course, music area, and other activities nearby.
There are also a variety of activities for kids available throughout the day at the beach area and the Teen Center. These are sure to keep children of all ages entertained during your visit, and all are available with your temporary membership whether you are renting a house or staying at the inn.
If that’s not enough, the Eagles Mere area is also home to several fantastic museums including the Eagles Mere Museum , the Eagles Mere Auto Museum , the Eagles Mere Motorcycle Museum , and the Eagles Mere Air Museum . The latter three museums are located just outside of town and offer some of the best antique transportation collections in Pennsylvania.
If you come with a big group, those that reserve five or more rooms at the Eagles Mere Inn can get a special behind-the-scenes tour of the Auto, Air, and Motorcycle museums for free. Having done this last year, the collections hidden away throughout town are at least as impressive as those in the museums themselves, and lovers of antique automobiles and airplanes will definitely be enthralled by the collections available.
As I said above, when I visited Eagles Mere last year, I was excited by what I found, but felt that I had only experienced part of the town since I hadn’t traveled with my family. Having brought them along this year, I really have an even deeper appreciation for the myriad of activities and recreational opportunities in this corner of Northeastern Pennsylvania . Think of it as summer camp for adults and kids.
If you’re looking for a unique and fun-filled family vacation, or just a several night exploratory stay, you’ll definitely want to check out Eagles Mere, PA. My family and I will be back!
