NOTES ON NATURE

Our home is in a forested area that stays under 70 degrees for the vast majority of the year. We have one window unit available in the Master Bedroom, but NO CENTRAL AC.

During the summer, guests typically stay comfortable by enjoying the community pools, lake, beaches, and other outdoor amenities during the day, while cooler evening temperatures, wall to wall screened windows and fans keep the home comfortable in the evening.

Being close to nature is part of the Little Norway PA experience. 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.

NOTES ON PARTIES

Little Norway PA 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.

SAFETY NOTE

Our photos show a wood burning fireplace. Our wood burning fireplace is unfortunately non-operational. Guests tell us they enjoy the cozy, easy-to-use electric fireplace in place of the wood burning fireplace in the photos.
