The décor at The Tickled Trout will make you feel like you’re vacationing in Europe while being less than two hours from New York City and Philadelphia. Nestled in the heart of the PA Pocono Mountains this spectacular mountain retreat is secluded and serene yet includes all the amenities of a lake community.

Outdoors, you will be surrounded by majestic hills, pristine lakes, natural wildlife, lush foliage and fresh air. You can lose yourself reading a good book or listening to your favorite music in the midst of panoramic views on the private deck. Or you can immerse yourself in nature by snow skiing, ice skating, snowmobiling and snowboarding in the winter as well as hiking, swimming, fishing, horseback riding, playing tennis and golf in the summer. A golf cart at the house can transport you within the community while your car stays stored in the attached garage.

There are just as many year-round indoor activities such as fine dining and casual meals at cozy restaurants, shopping at outlets and antique stores, trying your luck at the casino and catching a blockbuster movie at the local theater. Or you can enjoy yourself without ever leaving the house by relaxing in front of a crackling fire -- either inside or at the outdoor fire pit -- sipping a glass of champagne in the Jacuzzi, watching some movie classics from the DVD selection and being entertained in the well-stocked game room.

Whether you’re interested in a vigorous schedule or an intimate rendezvous, discover The Tickled Trout for a multitude of activities. Make it your next vacation getaway and catch a boatload of joy and contentment.
