Friday Fun
Afternoon
Start off your getaway horseback at Mountain Creek Riding Stables! All year long, Mountain Creek offers visitors the option of public trail rides, but you can also book a private group ride to keep it just the girls. No matter what you choose, be sure to let The Swiftwater’s concierge know- they will make booking your ride even easier! Not interested in horseback riding?

Evening
After your activity-filled day, enjoy an incredible hibachi show and sushi, alongside music and dancing to end off your night at Desaki, our sister property. Then, walk up the sidewalk back to The Swiftwater to “wine” at Olivet with a handcrafted cocktail, or head back to your room to watch a movie on your 65-inch smart TV. If you want to keep the night going, head to Downtown Stroudsburg and catch a show at The Sherman Theater, then hit the town on Main Street!
Saturday Exploration
Morning
In the morning, indulge in a delectable meal at our in-house restaurant, Olivet, and head out for another exploration-filled day! To start your day off, head down the road to the Pocono Premium Outlets for a plethora of fun stores. If you want to find some hidden gems, we suggest going to Pocono Soap in Downtown Stroudsburg, then hitting up the shops on Main Street.

After a morning of shopping, explore the Poconos even more by following our Beverage Trail! If nature is more your groups’ vibe, the Pocono Mountains is the perfect place to be. We have so many great hiking trails throughout the area, many of which are near The Swiftwater! To make the decision easy on where to go, we put together a list of the top 10 hiking spots in the Pocono Mountains.

After seeing more of what the Poconos has to offer, head up the road for dinner at The Frogtown Chophouse! Here you will find incredible, high-quality cuisine. If you want to visit a hometown classic, be sure to check out the rustic setting at Jubilee Restaurant in Pocono Pines. Then, after your delicious meals, head back to The Swiftwater! You can relax by the fire on our garden patio or take a swim in our indoor/outdoor pool- the choice is yours!
