RESERVATIONS REQUIRED
You can book a reservation below! We’ve got 2-hour time slots that can be booked for 4 to 24 people, depending on availability. Please book reservations 48 hours in advance if possible. When requesting a reservation, please include your name, phone number, date and time requested, and number of people in your party.
​
DEPOSIT
A $75 non-refundable deposit is required to confirm your reservation. The deposit is applied to your bill on the day of your reservation. The reason this deposit is non-refundable is because we have to order food and schedule staff in advance. If weather forces us to close the S'mores site, your deposit will be refunded in full and/or we will work with you to schedule another date! Remember: even if you have to cancel for some reason, you can call ahead to let us know and we can arrange for you to pick up your S'mores package and take it to-go!
​
WEATHER
We've tried, but it turns out we can’t control the weather! S'mores dining sites are outside, in the shade, and sometimes when the sun goes down, it gets dark! The dining site fire pits are propane (so not a lot of heat). We do have some umbrella heaters but that only covers a small footprint. You should check the weather forecast and dress the way your mother would tell you to - warm layers, etc. etc. If we have to close because of weather (lightning, hail, locusts?), we’ll contact you and refund your deposit in full. We can’t guarantee indoor seating in the event of a weather cancellation. We'll try, but no guarantees. Should this be the case, we're happy to pack up the event for pick-up.
*Please note that underage drinking is strictly forbidden and will be closely monitored. Any underage drinking by anyone in your party will result in the entire party being asked to leave immediately with no refund. Authorities will be notified where applicable.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is the site private?
Yes, each site is only booked for one group. We have a total of five sites that vary in size to accommodate a variety of groups.
​
Do you have wine or cocktails?
We do! You can purchase beer, wine and cocktails at the Tiki Bar. You can also purchase wine by the bottle or cocktails by the carafe.
​
Can I bring my children?
Absolutely! S’more dining is family-friendly!
​
Can I bring my dog to the S'mores Site?
Yes, but you must notify us in advance. We will send you our dog policy, the most important thing being that your pup must remain on a leash that is held the entire time. In other words, no leash dragging on the ground behind the pup or tethered to a tree or other object.
​
Can I take the leftovers?
You are welcome to take any leftover food home with you. Bottles of wine must be recorked and we need to attach your dinner receipt to your bottle.
​
What are the mask requirements?
As of June 28, 2021, Pennsylvania has lifted all statewide COVID restrictions and masking requirements. That means you do not need to wear a mask while at Barley Creek.
​
Can I bring my own food or drinks?
No. Outside food and drinks are prohibited.
​
Are we permitted to use the Pint Size Park amenities?
Yes, as long as the facility is not closed for a private function.
​
Can you accommodate groups of more than 20?
Absolutely! We can book multiple sites to accommodate larger groups. You can also work directly with our catering team to craft a catered event for larger groups of 25 or more. Email our catering team here.
​
Can I decorate the site?
We’re big believers in no-trace camping, and that means simple decorations that can be easily removed, disposed of, and won’t leave a mark of any kind on furniture, firepits, or Mother Nature (we love our trees!). Absolutely no nails, staples, screws, glue, tape, confetti – you get the idea. The only thing you should leave behind is the faint trace of your footprints and the echoes of your happy laughter.
​
Please note the following:
We take underage drinking very seriously. If any member of your party who is under 21 is in possession of an alcoholic beverage or suspected to be consuming an alcoholic beverage, the reservation will be terminated immediately. Authorities will be notified where applicable. All illicit drugs are also prohibited.
​
No foreign objects are permitted to be placed in the firepits.
​
We know it’s tempting, but no climbing of trees or fences. Please be respectful of our neighbors and do not trespass on their property.
