This accessible mountain escape, cradled between the Delaware River and ancient ridgelines, has enchanted East Coast travelers for generations with its blend of natural drama and cozy resort hospitality. Whether you're chasing the mist of cascading falls or carving fresh powder down mountainside runs, the Poconos deliver mountain romance without the alpine remoteness.
