Poconos is situated northeast of Pennsylvania in the Monroe and Pike counties. This delightful tourist destination is best known for its splendid fall colors and excellent ski resorts. During the summer months, there is still much to see and do. There are numerous lakes and protected areas enabling visitors to see nature – raw untamed and unspoiled – at its best! With as much as 170km of river flowing through the area, this destination is also famed for its water sports.
According to Wikipedia, Poconos derived its name which means “stream between two mountains” as the Delaware River flows through the Pocono Mountains. The suggestion is offered too that as early as the very beginning of the twentieth century, the Quakers who resided in the area established the first of many resorts which led to Poconos becoming a highly sought after retreat for vacations.
If you visit during the warm months of the year, you can spend many relaxing hours fishing in the well-stocked rivers and dams. Obviously there are opportunities for boating and waterskiing available too. During hunting season, many keen hunters descend on the area to bag grouse, wild turkey and deer.
Many families make use of the fresh mountain air to engage in hiking trail activities and camp outdoors. Those who prefer the more refined things in life, have many hotels and resorts to choose from, where they can wine and dine and pamper themselves for a luxury getaway.
The people who are interested in arts and all things cultural will have great fun visiting the art galleries, theatre, historical buildings and scouring the various arts and crafts and antique venues to find objects for their home and friends.
If you wish to expose your children to the way life was in the really “good old days”, you will find excellent examples of early American architecture such as the Antoine DuTot Museum and Gallery which still houses an original and preserved classroom from the 1870’s. The Bell School House which consists of just one room and was built around the same time should really cause your children much amusement.
Over the last few years, Pocono has become a favorite getaway for the people rekindling old passions or starting a new romance. A number of resorts offer couples only romantic getaways with vouchers for river sports, golf and luxury spa treatments thrown into the deal.
However, if it is a family holiday you are after, you can source rental homes, real campfires, log cabins, family resorts on the waterfronts or in the mountains for the whole family. Poconos is the ideal destination if you want to enjoy leaving behind all the stress, which you accumulate in your bust hectic life. Live among nature and get back to your roots. Poconos will teach you how to live your life happily.
