Skytop Lodge

​⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An American Fairytale Castle in the Poconos! ​Skytop Lodge is not just a resort; it's a breathtaking escape into a different era. From the moment you approach the main lodge, you are transported. It looks exactly like a fairytale castle or a grand, private hunting chateau has popped up in the Pennsylvania mountains! ​The architecture is absolutely magnificent. The rough-hewn stone exterior, beautifully contrasted with the vibrant red ivy in the fall (as seen in my photos), evokes a powerful sense of history. The grand stone facade, rooted in the Dutch Colonial Revival style of the 1920s, instantly reminded me of a European castle—it truly is a stunning landmark. ​The interiors are just as impressive. The grand lobbies, with their beautiful wood paneling, towering arched windows, and cozy fireplaces, have the warm, elegant feel of an exclusive old-world club. Sunlight streaming through those enormous windows is a sight you have to see in person! ​Opened in 1928, this Historic Hotel of America sits on 5,500 acres of meticulously designed grounds—planned by the legendary Olmsted Brothers. Whether you are enjoying a round on the historic golf course, relaxing by the enormous fireplace, or exploring the extensive acreage, Skytop offers an atmosphere of timeless tradition and unmatched beauty. ​If you are looking for a getaway where elegance, history, and natural grandeur meet, Skytop Lodge is an absolute must-visit. It completely blew my mind and is a true gem of the Poconos!

This is an historic older lodge, extremely beautiful surroundings and interior. There's several beautiful restaurants inside The library bar is so beautiful to sit in.There's two fireplaces in the lodge one in the main lodge, one in the library lounge. They have many activities to participate in. The food is excellent. We plan on going back again.

Came here with another couple. Love the grounds the hiking paths, personnel are pleasant and accommodating. Had dinner at the Lakeview Restaurant at the Inn. Absolutely fabulous experience. Food delicious, atmosphere and service extraordinary. Have to give a shout out to Lia our server so pleasent, smiles and wonderfully attentive and accommodating. The manager Theo also a professional visiting tables making sure everyone was enjoying themselves from Happy Hour at the bar to Desert at dinner. Highly recommend and will go back.
