Fall & Winter Forest Retreat: Ski, Spa & Sauna- Poconos & Narrowsburg, NY

A thoughtfully designed rural escape for solo travelers, couples, small families, and furry friends within a few hours from NYC & Philly. Little Norway awaits!

Enjoy our ¨tiny spa¨ without the price tag of nearby Woodloch: whirlpool & Finnish sauna all to yourself in the surrounding forest & creek. Enjoy the resort amenities (pool, ski, lake) and nearby artsy towns of our Pocono-Sullivan Catskill mountain community.

Our on-site ski resort, Ski Big Bear, is a family-friendly mountain perfect for a crowd-free ski day (3 min drive from house). Stay 3 days or more and you are almost guaranteed freshly groomed conditions and countless chair-to-chair runs.

NOTES ON NATURE

Being close to nature is part of the experience given our rural location. We have bald eagle, porcupine, deer, and the occasional bear visitor! We choose not to use insecticides in order to keep the environment healthy for you and the local wildlife. We want you to feel completely at ease here and are always happy to answer any questions ahead of your stay.

We do have two neighboring homes towards the front of the property, so while we cannot guarantee 100% privacy, these neighbors are rarely present.

NOTES ON PARTIES

Little Norway is best experienced as a space for chill time. If you are seeking a space for a party, we can recommend other areas of the Poconos. Quiet hours are 10pm-6am.

Tämä chalet tarjoaa asiakkaidensa käyttöön porealtaan, saunan ja kuntokeskuksen. Tämä chalet tarjoaa asiakkaiden käyttöön myös grillejä, puutarhan ja pyykinpesutilat.
