Pocono Preview: News, Activities & Events of the Poconos  

It may be 21 degrees in the sun, but summer is on the way. Do you know where you are going to go this summer with the family? If you live in the Northeastern United States, you've probably heard of the Poconos.

Beginning Tuesday, March 18th, we'll be talking about the Poconos each week. Guests will be from the various resort properties and attractions. We'll preview things to come, as well as discuss what's happen now! 

In the 70s and 80s, it was the destination of choice for thousands of people for their honeymoon. While heart-shaped beds are still available, the nature of the area has changed dramatically.

There are traditional resorts such as Skytop, Pocono Manor and Shawnee, dozens of hotels with a full range of amenities, and, over the past decade or so, slopeside condos, golf courses and water parks.

Less than two hours east of New York City and Philadelphia, the elevation changes to provide cooler summer temperatures and a wide array of activites, ranging from RV parks and campgrounds to deluxe accommodations with an indoor waterpark.

If you like to hike or bike, paddle a canoe or kayak, the Poconos would be a great place to visit. Check out PoconoPreview.com for more information, and a convenient online reservation service.
