Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2008
Hi, We are delighted that you are interested in our condo. We take great pride in maintaining it and use it often to ensure that the user experience is great!
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 of this Condominium
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.
