When planning your getaway to Woodloch, it won’t take long to realize one thing you never have to worry about is going hungry. In addition to the dining plan that’s part of our all-inclusive packages, there are several places to grab a quick bite.

A Guide to 5 Bakeries in the Poconos

Whether looking for the perfect cookie or a delicious pastry, the bakeries near our Poconos resort have something for you.

How to Experience the Flavors of Fall at Woodloch

How to Experience the Flavors of Fall at Woodloch

When you think of fall, certain things probably come to mind, like crisp air, changing leaves, and pumpkin patches. You may also associate certain flavors with the season. From pumpkin spice to apples and cinnamons, the flavors of fall are delicious. For travelers visiting Woodloch during the autumn months, there are several ways to taste the season, both on and off-site.

Visit Pennsylvania Orchards

One of the most quintessential fall activities is visiting apple orchards. There are two incredible options within a 30-minute drive of the resort, making them great additions to an autumn escape.

Stop by the farm stand at Ostrander’s Orchard in nearby Beach Lake to purchase crisp apples and fresh-pressed cider. You can also get other fall treats like jams and maple syrup. The stand is open seasonally from about Labor Day through Thanksgiving, but we recommend calling before heading over to check their hours.

Another great option is Rickard’s Cider Mill in Honesdale. Since 1929, this family farm has been producing incredible cider. Their season usually runs from late September through early November. In addition to cider, you can also find gourds, honey, pumpkins, and apples.

Try Seasonal Offerings at Our Poconos Resort

An easy way to try autumn flavors is by stopping by in one of our three dining rooms. All menus change daily, and dishes are created using as many regionally grown products as possible. This means our talented chefs use ingredients that are in season for everything from filling entrees to decadent desserts.

Learn how to make popular recipes yourself by reserving your space for one of our cooking demonstrations. Menus for the mid-week event reflects the season, so be sure to check back for updates on our fall offerings.

Create Your Own Fall Flavors in Your Poconos Rental

You can enjoy the flavors of fall from the comfort of your accommodations at Woodloch. Stop by The Market at Woodloch, one of our other on-site dining and food options, to get all you need to create spiced cider or a pumpkin roll. Any ingredients you can’t find at the market are easily found at nearby grocery stores.

To start planning your fall getaway to our all-inclusive Pennsylvania resort, check our availability and special offers. For questions or help booking your stay, call 570-685-8000, option 1.
