8 Picture Perfect Towns in the Poconos (WorldAtlas.com)

Barrett Township consists of the five villages of Cresco, Mountainhome, Canadensis, Buck Hill Falls, and Skytop. One of the many enjoyable features of the township is the Brodhead Creek, a 22-mile-long renowned trout-fishing destination, meandering through lush valleys and wooded areas, drawing anglers and outdoor enthusiasts alike. History enthusiasts might enjoy perusing the remnants of what was once an opulent resort dating back to the late 19th century, the former Buck Hill Inn. The inn was demolished in 2017, but one room that was the former bowling alley in the resort still stands and is being used to house the historical artifacts for public showing. While Barrett Township possesses a modest commercial presence, such as local markets and cafes, lush landscapes and pieces of its past such as those found in the Buck Hill Inn display create a most indelible impression.
