Visit Hawk Mountain Sanctuary! Right now is the best time to visit, autumn hawkwatch is happening, trails to hike, weekend programs. Trail fee is modest, but membership allows free entry year round, and all fees/membership dues support local conservation. www.hawkmountain.org. Happy hiking!

What about one of the "camping" cottages or yurts at Tuscarora State Park (http://www.dcnr.state.pa.us/stateparks/parks/tuscarora.aspx). It's only about 15 miles from Pottsville.
