Essentials of Family Travel:

What is the winning recipe for a great family getaway? Think about the where, when and what your getaway can provide to your family. It may be an affordable destination that will ensure you don’t leave with buyer’s remorse? How long will the trip take? Lastly, what type of activities suit your family’s interests best. The Poconos region of Northeast Pennsylvania regularly checks all these boxes for outdoors-minded travelers. 

Choose accommodations that serve as the perfect base camp:

• Have family in the area – perhaps they live in Monroe County and you want to be near them?
• Enjoy the benefits of a vacation home with great community amenities? 
• Ensure that conveniences like nearby grocery shopping, attractions and shopping abound.

When to travel – The Poconos Region is a Four Seasons destination

• High Season is Summer: Waterparks, whitewater rafting to a great mix of State Parks can provide you with a fun-filled vacation. 
• Ski Season: From December to February, visitors flock to the Poconos ski resorts to ski, snowboard, ice skate or snow tube to their hearts’ content. 
• Fall Season: Fall Foliage, scenic train rides and trips to local vineyards, farms or orchards is the beginning of a list of family-centric activities. 
• Spring Season: Avoid the crowds but immerse yourself in great hiking, biking or even an afternoon of ziplining can be had. 

Solution: Book in advance to get the time frame that meets your needs. Consider midweek savings or grab the weekends that sell faster. 

Why choose a Vacation Rental Home vs. Hotel Box?

• Enjoy the privacy and full amenities of a single family home in a gated community. 
• Get surrounded by nature – lake view, ability to bring your furry friend(s) to enjoy the fenced yard, private hot tub and seasonal private pool. Watch the white-tailed deer, chipmunks, squirrels and songbirds abound from the front yard or sitting in your sunshine-filled bedroom. 
• Benefit from the savings of cooking in a well-equipped kitchen or heating up left overs to eat by the fireplace.
• Live like a local from all the smart options that our guest binder recommends. 

Solution: Trust 3rd party guest reviews for proof of a well-maintained vacation home such as “Sunset Dip In The Poconos – where we practice the art of hospitality.”
