Secluded Poconos 5BR Lake Retreat with Beach Access and Skiing

The Williwaw (funny name, right?) is simply a great place to stay! It's central to such a wide variety of activities, you can visit every weekend and not run out of things to do. The cabin is super clean and comfy with all the touches of home which make it easy for a family vacation. The kids will love playing outside in the woods, roasting marshmallows or telling ghost stories in the bunk beds. Adults will appreciate the huge wrap around second story deck nestled among the trees which offers a great place to grill, visit with friends, or just curl up with a good book and a steaming cup of tea.
Locust Lake Village boasts three lakes with fishing, swimming and boating as well as several beaches, a playground and tennis courts, all of which you will have access to during your stay. In the winter, we've got a ski hill with a T-bar and a sledding hill for the kiddos, and of course we're within a few minutes of 3 major ski slopes. The clubhouse always has different fun activities too, such as line dancing or paint and sip. For a fun day out, we're 20 minutes from Kalahari water park, or for a day of hiking and nature, head to Hickory Run State Park just a few minutes in the other direction. The tourist town of Jim Thorpe is just down the road and features white water rafting, mountain biking, or a real steam train ride for a leisurely tour of the Lehigh Gorge. Lake Wallenpaupack is about a 30-40 minute drive, but it's a lovely ride through the country and there you can run a larger boat for fishing or even water skiing. After a day of fun, return to the Williwaw for a relaxing evening and a restful sleep. We have different mattress types in each room with different firmness, all of which are comfortable and a ton of pillows to choose from. The sun rises through the trees in the back yard and creates a magical landscape, for those early risers, we highly recommend an early cup of coffee on the deck or in the back yard to appreciate the quiet.
