Top-Rated Poconos Getaway: The Best Times to Visit Woodloch
There’s never an offseason for good, old-fashioned family fun in the Pocono Mountains, especially here at Woodloch Resort, which is conveniently located only two hours from Manhattan. Regardless of the season, Woodloch provides every family with a one-of-a-kind Poconos getaway. Splash in Lake Teedyuskung under the warm Pennsylvania sunshine, hike through our pristine wilderness during autumn’s peak, and ski down the slopes at Masthope Mountain – the choice is yours! While it was challenging to choose just four of our favorite times to visit Woodloch, these specific occasions certainly stood out.
Autumn Midweeks
A Poconos getaway during autumn’s peak should be on everyone’s bucket list, which is why we urge families to avoid weekends during the leaf-peeping season’s pinnacle. Not only will you get to enjoy some of the most colorful foliage on the planet, but the roads will be practically empty. Autumn Midweeks are also one of the best deals on the East Coast as we offer outrageous savings for children six and under as well as teenagers. You’ll be able to combine fun Halloween-themed games and seemingly endless homegrown activities while appreciating the glorious combination of tiger orange, marigold, Tuscan yellow, and emerald in our lush forestry.
July & August
There’s no secret that July & August are the most popular months here at Woodloch Resort, as thousands of families from New York City flock to Hawley, PA, for a well-deserved, summertime, Poconos getaway. Many of our homegrown activities are centered around water during the summer months. Splash in one of our pristine pools, explore Lake Teedyuskung in a family-sized rowboat, and enroll in the Summer Olympics. One of the biggest perks of a midsummer Poconos getaway is that you can do just about anything!
Spooktacular Weekends
During select weekends in October, we transform our family resort into a Halloween-themed wonderland – we call them Spooktacular Weekends! Not only is the surrounding wilderness a colorful natural painting, but your family can hop aboard the world-famous Haunted Hayride, show off their costumes in the Halloween Parade, and even go trick or treating. Autumn is especially fantastic because you can still partake in home-grown outdoor activities but also enjoy the splendors of fall: leaf-peeping, s’mores, pumpkin-spiced lattes, and cozy sweater weather!
Ski & Stay
Earlier this winter, we detailed the incredible savings and value that comes with the Ski & Stay packages here at Woodloch Resort. There isn’t a better mid-week, wintertime, Poconos getaway available. With the Ski & Stay package, families can enjoy unlimited skiing, snowboarding, and snow tubing at Ski Big Bear as well as two meals daily, countless on-site activities, and nightly live entertainment. Take a break from the slopes with ice skating, and the Winter Olympics. Woodloch is one of the best family resorts in North America because our team is dedicated to creating a warm, friendly, and exciting atmosphere which pairs perfectly with the Pocono Mountains’ beauty.
