Reading the comments on Trip Advisor. Still has an 80's look to it.

What really fascinates me is that they have a major marketing campaign by buying billboards on major roadways and the reviews on trip advisor tell you all you need to know.

Bushkilll Inn will have a minyan Shabbos nachamu but it's sold out.  Does anybody know another hotel in the Poconos that will have a minyan this Shabbos?  I don't mind bringing our own food.

Been there many times. They haven't been updated in years. Though someone told me they have sections that are newer. If you're just looking for a place with decent space for family shabbos etc... then it's ok...

Nothing really. There is Bushkill falls which is a waste of time besides the fact they charge u to see a sorry excuse for a waterfall. With young children horseback riding and shooting range is out. Maybe look into biking...

Buy a gun from a pawnshop and take it to a public outdoor range. Then sell it back at a loss at the end of your trip.
