Ridge Run Retreat Ski In-Ski Out/King Bed Suite-Book your winter getaway now! Modern yet cozy, this family home in Snow Ridge Village at Jack Frost Mountain Resort offers ski in/ski out access and is on the same site as Jack Frost National Golf Club. My parents were the original owners and in 2020 my wife and I purchased the house and completed extensive renovations. This is not our rental property, it is our second home that we love.

Each bedroom and the great room have individual units that can be set independently.Mobility and stairs: All key rooms are on the ground floor with no internal steps. The main bedrooms, bathrooms, living and dining rooms, kitchen and porches are all on the same level. The “kids” bedroom and loft are the only spaces upstairs.There are many good spaces for people to be social or work quietly. If you need to work from a laptop or have a meeting, or your kid needs to zoom into school, there is plenty of space for that to happen quietly while the rest of your group is having fun elsewhere in the house.Uber and Lyft provide service to and from the house.For skiers and snowboarders:There is a flat and easy walking access trail to the Ridge Run ski slope at Jack Frost Mountain Resort. The distance from the house to Ridge Run is about 200 yards, less than a five minute walk. For any non-skiers who want to watch their family and friends schuss down the ski slope this trail offers easy access for viewing and a good spot to cheer them on. For golfers:On the same property and only a 5 minute drive from the house, Jack Frost National is rated one of the top 20 public courses in PA. The course is a 7200 yard mountain course set in an oak forest with great views. It has wide fairways and easily identifiable targets.There are two other public courses within a 15 minute drive, Mountain Laurel and Split Rock Golf Clubs.Wineries/Vineyards/Distilleries:There are several wineries in the Poconos areas. Two of the best are about 25 miles from the house, and only 15 minutes apart, so you can visit them both on the same day if you’d like. Mountain View Vineyard in Stroudsburg is a winery, brewery and distillery offering tastings of wine, beer and spirits. It also has a small bistro with a menu that changes weekly. Blue Ridge Estate Winery is just down the road in Saylorsburg. You can bring your own picnic or they have cheese platters and brick oven pizza (the cauliflower gf pizza is amazing). Both places are child and pet friendly. Also, only 5 minutes from the house, Holy Ghost Distillery is a small batch craft distillery and cocktail bar. Mohegan Sun Casino and Arena is about 30 minutes away. Hickory Run State Park is a gem about 20 minutes from the house. There is a sand beach swimming area on a lake with a snack bar that serves sandwiches, drinks, ice cream and snacks. It also has 44 total miles of hiking trails, most of which are short and suitable for young, older or inexperienced hikers. Popular trails include Hawk Falls and the surprisingly mellow Shades of Death trail. The park boasts numerous waterfalls, a disc golf course and one of the largest glacial boulder fields in the US. Several streams are stocked with trout for springtime fishing. Mountain laurel and rhododendrons are in peak bloom mid-June through mid-July. Late September through early November are great for fall foliage. Austin T Blakeslee Natural Area. A small and beautiful park along the nearby Tobyhanna Creek. This is our go to spot for a short outing. The creek and creekside trail are gorgeous, and a full door-to-door, out and back excursion can be two hours or less.The nearby Lehigh River offers some of the best rafting and tubing in eastern Pennsylvania. Numerous outfitters are located in White Haven and Jim Thorpe, both within 30 minutes of the house.Francis E Walter Dam. The drive across the top of this local dam is stunning. Kayaking in the reservoir or hiking the shoreline and forest along the lake offers surprising isolation and a feel of real wilderness.Bear Creek Preserve - Natural Lands Trust. My new local obsession. An expansive private nature preserve that is free and open to the public. There are many miles of challenging and beautiful hiking trails on varied terrain. It is easy to combine Bear Creek Preserve with Francis E Walter Dam on one excursion.Horseback riding:Daisy Field Farm is a private farm and wildlife preserve that is right down the road in White Haven, PA. It offers horseback riding, trail rides and other farm activities by appointment only. Please call ahead for reservations.Mountain Creek Stable is 30 minutes away and also offers trail riding, pony rides and wagon rides for the whole family.Shopping:The Crossings Premium Outlets are 25 minutes away in TannersvilleWaterparks:There are several water parks within 30 minutes of the house that offer day passes:Kalahari Water ParkGreat Wolf LodgeCamelback Waterpark
