The beautiful tree-covered mountains and the sparkling waters of Lake Harmony make the area perfect for a wedding. If you are planning a wedding in the Poconos, consider booking our Pocono Mountain vacation homes for your guests at Pocono Mountain Rentals.
Accommodations in a Poconos Lodge Rental
Our large lakeside homes are a great option if you are looking for accommodations for your wedding party.

You and your friends and family can relax together in the evening before the wedding for drinks on the private patio of your Poconos lodge rental or eat breakfast together in the morning while you get ready for the big day. Many of our homes also have large patios with seating and views of the lake so you can bring your wedding party back to your house and have a barbeque with your closest family and friends. Several of our rentals have access to a hot tub and pool as well.

After the Big Event
Whether you’re staying and enjoying some vacation time with your family and wedding guests or you’re flying off to your honeymoon in some exotic locale, leaving everyone to fend for themselves, after your big day has ended the fun can still continue. Group hiking expeditions in the parks that surround Lake Harmony allows large parties to continue spending time together; the Delaware and Lehigh National Heritage Corridor in Jim Thorpe offers 26 miles of trails that range in difficulty levels from easy to difficult.
Summer weddings may interrupt your important golf plans for a day or so, but not for long. Jack Frost National Golf Club, located in Blakeslee, is a 200 acre, 7200 yard span of some of the most beautiful landscape in the Poconos; multiple elevation changes gives the course a degree of difficulty without making it intimidating for novice sportsmen and women.
Rent kayaks or canoes from Lake Harmony Watersports and spend a relaxing and invigorating morning exploring the area via water; early morning adventures are more peaceful, but feel free to sleep in late and enjoy the rowdier fun that accompanies afternoon boating trips. The Poconos Mountain Music Festival takes place on weekends starting in July offers a variety of shows in a variety of musical genres guaranteed to please all the music lovers in your group.
Large Group Dining
Finding a restaurant that can hold your entire group may be difficult in other vacation spots, but you chose Pocono Mountain Rentals for your Poconos lodge rental, and we have your back as we offer this list of restaurants that can easily accommodate your dining party. Enjoy thick burgers and cold beers and handcrafted milkshakes at the B-Lux Grill & Bar in Pocono Manor or feast on juicy steaks and fall off the bone tender and succulent ribs at Bailey’s Ribs and Steakhouse in Mount Pocono. When you’re not willing to wander far from home for a great meal and some good times, Shenanigans, right here in Lake Harmony, offers a fun night out with live entertainment on the weekends. Patio dining in the summer is an experience visitors should try at least once during their stay in the Poconos.
