Arguably, one of the most magical times of year is the holiday season. From the glowing lights to festive happenings, this season is one meant for creating lifelong memories. This year, add a bit of extra holiday cheer to your celebrations by planning a last-minute getaway to Woodloch. Our family-friendly resort is the perfect destination for anyone looking to celebrate Christmas and the holiday season in the Poconos.

What to Do on a Festive Poconos Winter Vacation

Between events and things to do at our Poconos resort and things to do in the surrounding area, there are plenty of ways to get into the holiday spirit.

• Hunt down the elusive yule log! Legend has it that whoever tracks it down is blessed with good luck in the new year. Join other guests to hunt down the log hidden on our 135 acres before enjoying holiday snacks.
• One of the year’s most anticipated events is our annual Festival of Lights. Grab a hot chocolate and wander our half-mile of seasonal displays. Offered between Thanksgiving and New Year’s, this outing takes place via wagon ride on our Nature Trail.
• Taking place in mid-December, Hawley Winterfest is a great time to explore downtown Hawley. Shop holiday bargains while taking in the splendor of the twinkling lights. You can also go on carriage rides and make holiday crafts.
• Book your spot on a festive ride on The Stourbridge Line. The Santa Christmas Tree Express departs from either Honesdale or Hawley, while the Pocono Winter Wonderland Express leaves the Honesdale station. There’s also a holiday dinner train!
• Enjoy some of our incredible on-site winter activities. Go ice skating on Lake Teedyuskung or take part in the winter Olympics. Be sure to visit Woodloch’s Edge for even more festive fun!
