Just a few miles from Sweet Forest Breeze, the MACA Pool is the go-to spot for family-friendly fun. Cool off in the pool during warm afternoons, then head to the snack stand for grille cheeses my kids eat two of piece. Or snag a hot pretzel and cheese without breaking the bank. When the pool closes, head over to the monkey bars and swings before heading back to base.

Location: 7650 PA-36, Leeper, PA 16233Get Directions to The Market Basket
On a scenic drive through Cook Forest, we stumbled upon The Market Basket, an Amish grocery store that’s become a favorite. Their bakery is a treasure trove of glazed donuts, fried pies, and cinnamon rolls that are so good, we serve them at the inn on special weekends. This hidden gem also offers bulk foods and discounted items. But remember: it’s cash only, so try not to be so modern and put some $20s in your wallet.
4. The Wizard of 66: Roadside Magic
Location: Route 66, near Leeper, PA Wizard of 66 on Facebook
Every journey into Cook Forest should include arriving via 66. This is a driveby, not a really a stop. The kids love yelling, “The wizard is out!” while adults enjoy the cheerful vibes and reminder they are headed into the enchanted forest.
