Outdoor Adventures

You can see a lot of nature within the resort’s 325 uncrowded acres, but you’ll also be close to many beautiful Pennsylvania State Parks, including Big Pocono and Beltzville. Try a horseback ride, whitewater rafting, ride a bike, or visit a local nature center.

The Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area and Bushkill Falls are among the natural wonders you might want to visit.

With lakes and rivers galore, the Pocono Mountains are perfect for swimming, boating and fishing. If you don’t want to paddle your own canoe, rent one - or a kayak or raft. You can have fun on your own or join a group adventure with a local outfitter. Of course, you can always lay back and enjoy the spring-fed lake right outside your cottage.
