Strategic Short Term Rental: Proximity to Poconos Attractions
Hello BP,
Today I want to talk about everything Pocono attractions. The Pocono Mountains are for adventure seekers, nature enthusiasts, and folks who want to enjoy some time with friends and family (or alone) in a quiet, peaceful place. When it comes to short-term rentals in this vacation destination, proximity to popular attractions is key. In this blog post, we'll explore the must-visit hotspots that guests want to be near.
Ski Resorts:
- Jack Frost/Big Boulder: Located in Blakeslee just a couple minutes from well-known Lake Harmony.
- Camelback: Camelback is located in Tannersville, just a couple minutes from the Tannersville Crossings shopping outlets.
- Blue Mountain and Elk Mountain: Blue Mountain is a bit further, about 45 minutes south of Mt. Pocono, and Elk is closer to one hour north.
Family Friendly parks:
- Kalahari, Camelback, and Great Wolf Lodge: Three massive and fully indoor waterparks open year-round for family fun.
Entertainment and Leisure:
Mt. Airy Casino: Try your luck at table games or slots ( Or stick to renting Airbnb's :/ ) Also offering Pool, Spa, Dining, and Golf.

More importantly ensures that visitors choose your home over others when it comes to booking. Whether it's the thrill of skiing, the joy of water parks, or the tranquility of nature hikes, being close to these attractions enhances the overall experience for your guest when they stay at your Short Term Rental home.
