Adult Day Programs “Near Me” | What is Woodloch’s AWAY?

Yes, Woodloch Resort is the top-ranked family resort in America, according to USA Today. But our lakeside respite has also gradually evolved into a desirable midweek escape for couples, groups, and company retreats thanks to our adult programming. In recent years, we identified a need to implement an array of adult day programs to please the general public, particularly New York City area residents. Most adults (mainly parents) don’t spend nearly enough time on themselves. With no allotted “me time,” it’s easy to become stressed, overworked, and distracted at home. Woodloch’s AWAY program is the perfect escape for adults aching for a bit of fun, relaxation, and much-needed self-reflection.

The AWAY Adult Day Programs

Unlike most adult day programs in the Pocono Mountains, the AWAY program focuses on the most precious commodity in the household: you. AWAY stands for Art, Wine, Adventure, and You. Many of these adult programs are sophisticated and creative, while others provide sheer bliss amid towering forestry and still waters. A lot of our guests tell us that they found us by searching for “adult art classes near me”—and art certainly does play a significant role in the AWAY adult program. Here’s a taste of what to expect during your well-deserved midweek vacay to Woodloch Resort.

ART: You don’t have to be the next Pablo Picasso, Vincent van Gogh, or Andy Warhol to revel in the creative ambiance of our art classes for adults. Most of these adult classes involve painting, but we occasionally book photographers and sculptors. Two other types of artistic adult day programs that we offer is a mixology course as well as cooking demos.
WINE: Whether you’re a self-described sommelier or just getting your vino-loving feet wet, you won’t soon forget the wine and chocolate pairing here at one of the only all-inclusive Poconos resorts. The back-to-the-basics wine tastings, meanwhile, are also a whirlwind of flavor and sophistication.
ADVENTURE: As you might expect, we offer countless outdoor adult day programs, including guided hikes, ziplining, ice skating, snowshoeing, and even paintball. All of these on-site activities provide an optimal level of adventure and exploration. Because we’re a four-season resort, the daily activities do depend on the season as well as the weather.
YOU: At the end of the day, the most critical letter in the AWAY program is you. Not only will you have exclusive access to all of the aforementioned adult day programs, but you can partake in everything else that we offer—from live music to an abundance of lakeside fun. We all need a healthy dose of me time periodically, and we couldn’t think of a better destination to recharge your batteries than right here in the glorious Pocono Mountains.

All-Inclusive Poconos Resorts for Couples

Most guests who enlist in our AWAY adult day programs are couples. And while that’s certainly not a requirement, many of these events are especially romantic. Don’t forget that our 1,800-acre campus is also home to a world-class Poconos spa: The Lodge at Woodloch. Spa treatments combined with fine dining at Tree Restaurant, nightly live performances, and AWAY programming sounds like an idyllic escape to us.
