Directions:
Take RT 80 west to exit 12. At the end of the exit ramp, take a right onto RT 521 (Hope / Blairstown Rd). Take that to the end and make a left onto RT 94 South. At the first light, make the weaker right onto Bridge St. Do not take the sharpest right, make sure you are on Bridge St. Follow that up the hill and make a right onto High St, then bear left onto Millbrook Rd. Follow that for 6.4 miles until you see Historical Millbrook Village on your right and turn right onto Old Mine Rd (North) there. Continue on Old Mine Rd for 1.5 miles and make your first right onto Flatrockville Stillwater Rd (also known as Blue Mountain Lakes Rd). The parking area is 1.3 miles up on the left.

Important: If you decide to use GPS and not these directions, please note that you can only approach the destination from the western side. The eastern side is gated off even though it may show as a continuous road.
