PIKE COUNTY · LEHMAN & MIDDLE SMITHFIELD TOWNSHIPS
Saw Creek Estates has been voted the number one gated community in the Pocono Mountains, and if you spend any time there it becomes clear why. Located in Bushkill, Pike County, just 85 miles from New York City, the community sits alongside the Saw Creek, a trout-filled stream that winds through the wooded landscape. The surrounding woods, private lakes, and year-round recreation give it a character that feels genuinely removed from the everyday, while the amenity package rivals what you might find at a resort property.
What sets Saw Creek apart from most Pocono communities is the sheer range of what is available to homeowners at no additional charge. Skiing in winter, outdoor pools in summer, indoor pools year-round, the only indoor tennis courts in the Poconos, a fitness center, racquetball, basketball, and the Top of the World Restaurant and Clubhouse, all included. The community is financially strong and impeccably maintained, and that reputation holds up in how the facilities present.
The Top of the World complex sits at the heart of community social life. The restaurant opens to the public by reservation Thursday through Sunday and hosts live entertainment, karaoke nights, and seasonal events. The outdoor pool area at Top of the World includes a poolside Tiki Bar. It is the kind of place that makes people glad they bought here.
⚠ STR — Verify by Township
STR eligibility at Saw Creek Estates depends entirely on which township the specific property falls within. The Middle Smithfield Township section permits STR with an annual township license. Lehman Township does not permit new STR licenses in any residential zone — buyers must not assume STR eligibility for any property in the Lehman Township section. Buyers should confirm the specific township of any target property directly with Saw Creek Estates and the relevant township before purchasing.
