I generally do not post about my personal life on my blog. However, living in the beautiful Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania needs to be shared. It is the heart of Pennsylvania and is the largest resort area in PA. I never thought I would love living in a private gated resort community but it's a wonderful life. Our animal friends make it even better.
The Pocono's are full of wonderful artists, galleries and art communities so we fit right in.
I wanted to share the beautiful views from our home on the side of the mountain overlooking the huge lake. What a way to paint every day!!! Come visit the beautiful Pocono's and while your here, visit me too.
Enjoy!
The Poconos is and has been Pennsylvania's most popular tourist destination. It is also known for its brilliant color during the fall, in which the mountains are a mix of vibrant red, yellow, and orange. The region contains over 80% of the state's resorts. These resorts earn 1.5 billion dollars in gross revenues and employ 18,000 workers. The region is also a popular winter destination. State parks offer snowmobile trails, snowshoeing, and eagle watching.
Popular summer activities include whitewater rafting and canoeing down the Delaware and Lehigh Rivers, camping and hiking, water parks, and smaller attractions such as Claws N Paws Wild Animal Park, Kittatinny Rafting & Paintball, Houdini Museum and others. Another popular recreation activity growing around the Poconos is disc golf. Currently there are several disc golf courses located around the Poconos. Other outdoor activities, particularly golf, are also popular options.
Another attraction is Pocono Raceway, a major automobile racetrack, which is home to two NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races, the Pocono 500 in June, and the Pennsylvania 500n August. It also serves as a racing school and motorcycle track.
The Poconos is a major resort destination with new additions such as Great Wolf Lodge for families, a resurrection of Mount Airy as a gaming (slots) and golf resort, the famous Caesars Pocono Resorts with heart-shaped and champagne whirlpool baths for two (couples only) and a retreat known as Woodloch Pines hat has added a spa facility.
