Charming & Traditional
Activities here at The Settlers Inn take advantage of the property’s scenic grounds, thriving gardens and rich history. Experience a Canal Walk on Wednesdays. The guided tour explores the remnants of the D & H Canal that are located on the grounds. During summer, Thursdays bring a guided Lake Walk, while a Garden Tour on Wednesdays offers the opportunity to explore the Inn’s lovely manicured gardens in-depth. The lawn overlooking the gardens is the setting for yoga on Saturday mornings during warmer weather.
The riverside fire pit is the place to be on Monday evening for S’mores- a beloved summertime tradition. Daily Wine Tastings let you sample vintages from the restaurant’s award-winning wine list while you learn more about the diverse world of wine. The Settlers Inn is known for its farm-to-table restaurant. Enjoy an extraordinary meal and live entertainment during Jazz on the Deck every Wednesday throughout summer or live piano music on Saturdays. Cold-weather activities at The Settlers Inn tap into the wealth of history and flavors cultivated here. Enjoy mocktail and tastings or find a place at the fireside history chats, which include a Chef’s Tasting.
Waterfront & Wonderful
Our sister property, Silver Birches, is located right on Lake Wallenpaupack. When you stay at The Settlers Inn during summer and fall, you can visit the Recreation Center any day of the week and take out one of the resort’s kayaks, SUPs or canoes. Group SUP sessions are offered on Mondays. Other summertime wellness activities include lakeside yoga on Tuesdays. Every evening throughout the year, we raise a glass to a day on the lake with a special Sunset Champagne Toast. All that fresh air works up an appetite, so there’s a picnic every Tuesday at noon during summer. On Thursday evenings, find a spot by the lakeside fire pit and indulge in s’mores. From Memorial Day through Columbus Day, Sunday’s Lakeside Live brings entertainment to the lawn at Silver Birches. Activities move inside during winter when you can take part in Wednesdays Book Swap or challenge yourself during PubOlympics on Thursday.
Cool & Contemporary
Take some time to visit Ledges Hotel during your Pocono Mountains getaway. The glass factory turned boutique hotel has a cool contemporary atmosphere and views not found anywhere else in Hawley. There are daily cocktail tastings as well as live entertainment events such as Blues, Brews and BBQ every Sunday from Memorial Day through the end of August. Winter and spring bring the opportunities to warm up with a fireside history chat along with chef’s tasting.
Historic & Hustling
You can’t miss the Hawley Silk Mill. The building is the largest Bluestone structure in the world and once housed a thriving silk factory. The mill was repurposed into an eclectic lifestyle center boasting shops, an art gallery, fitness center and offices. On Thursdays, take a guided tour of the historic structure, which dates to 1880. You can also work out anytime on the state-of-the-art equipment at Lake Region Fitness. On Fridays, from Columbus Day to Memorial Day, enjoy Bakery Bites at Cocoon Coffeehouse and Bakery.
