Adventure awaits in the Poconos

Explore the outdoors and enjoy the winter landscape! Take in the vista from atop Jack Frost, Big Boulder, or Camelback ski areas by day, and relish solitude and tranquility of a mountain vacation rental by night. Kids and adults alike will enjoy spending New Year’s Eve in the Poconos. Get off the beaten path, and check out the great network of cross-country ski and snowshoe trails – some might be right out your back door! Snowmobiling is also very popular in the Poconos, allowing visitors to cover some ground and take in the beauty of the mountains under a fresh dusting of snow. Rent ice skates for the whole family, and spend the afternoon gliding around a frozen lake. The extra-adventurous can mush a dogsled team across the ice or try out ice-fishing for a true arctic experience.

Relax and rejuvenate in a mountain refuge

While you may choose to curl up with a good book next to the fireplace, there is no shortage of ways to de-stress and unwind in the Poconos.  Enjoy a massage and facial at a day spa, retail therapy in the many shops lining quaint downtown streets, or find your zen at a yoga class in a local studio. A healthy dose of nature is always good for the soul. Take in the scenery and fresh air with a stroll in the woods, then warm up with a hot drink or a bowl of soup in a charming bistro or cafe.
