Map & Owner's Profile
Lakefront Condo Near Big Boulder Ski Area in the Poconos!
Year Purchased: 2008
Why the Owner Chose Big Boulder
The Pocono Mountains is a wonderful four season location that is central to the New York City and Philadelphia areas. The weather is dramatically different in the summer and winter than is typical in the Mid-Atlantic states, so the winters have plenty of snow and the summers are cooler with much less humidity. This translates into fun in the form of skiing/snowboarding, hiking, bicycling, running, swimming, kayaking, tennis, etc.
The accessibility of the Poconos drove our decision to purchase here.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
Our condo has a great view of Big Boulder Lake and offers easy access to skiing/snowboarding, hiking, bicycling, running, swimming, kayaking, tennis, etc.
There is a pool and hot tub on-site in our development. You will also have use of The Lake/Mountain Club which is a short walk down the street with tennis courts, another pool, kayaks, etc.
In the winter, Big Boulder (BB) Ski Resort is less than 1 mile down the street and you can use your Lift Ticket to ski at BB or at Jack Frost Ski Resort (5 miles away). Two ski resorts for the price of one.
