Hidden among the mountain trees sits a peaceful spot, a Bed & Breakfast designed to provide a tranquil sanctuary to all who visit. Feel inspired by the sounds and sights of nature. Relax and rejuvenate. Explore the area around Santosha on the Ridge, a secluded B&B in Pennsylvania, sway in a hammock all day, or do whatever your heart desires.
Sat high atop the Pocono Mountains overlooking the Delaware River, Santosha on the Ridge is within fairly easy driving distance of both New York City (72 miles) and Philadelphia (102 miles).
But, once your gaze falls upon the enchanting Bed & Breakfast, reflected off of the shimmering pond, you'll likely feel little incentive to leave the tranquil sanctuary.
Sink into the cozy couch or chair, overlooking a rustic fireplace, with a good book, the newspaper, or simply drink in the sights around you as you chat with fellow visitors.
Awake refreshed each morning, starting your day off with a delicious meal: Fresh muffins or scones, maple-baked pears, puff pancakes, poached eggs, and breakfast pizzas. Arrive for 9 a.m. breakfast or alert the staff if you must eat earlier.
While away the hours with your favorite book or by napping on the comfy hammock, surrounded by the sounds of nature: the rustling of the breeze through the trees and the melody of the birds.
You'll find plenty to do around Santosha on the Ridge, near the town of Shawnee, too. Explore the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, Columcille Megalith Park, or Worthington State Forest.
Guests at Santosha on the Ridge will also enjoy free wine tasting at the nearby Mountain View Winery and will receive a discount on tickets to the Shawnee Mountain Festival.
Slip away to the mountains for a tranquil weekend at this secluded B&B in Pennsylvania. Our state is also home to a plethora of other charming bed and breakfasts.
