Outdoor Adventures & Golf

Hike, paddle, play and golf across the Poconos

Use the cottage as your home base for hiking, waterparks, scenic dams and a round of Pocono golf.

A home base for every season

From waterfall hikes to a day at the waterpark, the Poconos have something for every kind of outdoor lover. Pocono Dream Cottage puts you close to it all, with a hot tub and sauna waiting when you get back.

Seasonal activities change through the year. Outdoor waterparks like Camelbeach operate during warmer months only, and trail conditions vary with weather. Check current operating dates and conditions with each destination before you go. Your stay includes the cottage and its amenities only—lake access, resort amenities, attraction admission and equipment rentals are separate unless confirmed by the owners.
