Xmas in the Poconos Best of IgoUgo

Overview

Quote:
The best things to do during the Xmas week were: 1. Christmas musical at the Fernwoods Event Center - the production is awesome. 2. Snowtubing at the Fernwoods facility - reduced rates for resort guests! 3. Crayola factory at Easton, PA - an hour away from the resort, but great for the kids. 4.

Restaurant

Quote:
The restaurant is tastefully decorated. The food is freshly prepared and very tasty.

The service is superb.

Best of all, part of the restaurant is an actual train compartment. It is even attached to an engine!

The Crayola Factory Best of IgoUgo

Attraction | "Crayola Factory"

Quote:
The arts and crafts at the Crayola Factory are just amazing! The kids get a lot of hands on activity, and would love to spend the whole day there!

There is also a Silk museum upstairs, but we skipped it.

There is a McDonalds Express in the first floor, so after the factory visit, we headed there.

Overall, a great day out for kids.
