Those this looks like a motel from the outside. It is such a peaceful place to stay. We booked a room for our family and our dog and we were able to just open our back patio door to an enclosed wooded area. It was all lit up at night and there were fireflies around And the pool and restaurant were right across from our room. There was a beautiful stream on the other side of the wall. Just a really nice area if you like the woods.

Staff is great and the outside bar is wonderful. We stayed in the Tower on this trip as a wedding took over the main building. We found the Tower to be nice, comfortable but someone in an adjacent room to ours was smoking and the smell came through the vent into our bathroom, totally smelling up our room. I contacted the front desk immediately upon entering the room so I wasn’t charged a $250.00 cleaning fee. Also, we found the bed a bit hard and the pillows were not plush but rather solid and uncomfortable. Overall, we had a nice stay, prefer the main building but the Woodland remains our go to for a stay in Wilkes Barre PA

Great place to stay

This is an older hotel that has everything you need. Everything was clean. Nice environment with the wooded lot and outdoor space. Breakfast was much better than your typical free hotel buffet. I appreciated how nice the staff that staffed the breakfast.
