4/5 - Good
An interesting historic area with an old cemetery, ruins of old buildings, and waterfalls.

While Briar Crest Woods might not have many sights to explore, venturing just a little farther will lead you to top things to see and do like Pocono Raceway and Big Boulder Lake.

The only things we didn't like were that the air conditioning is too noisy and disrupts sleep, and that the breakfast area is very small. But is a good hotel,

Not good restaurants
Not a ton of dining options nearby, but enough to get you through a couple of nights!
Perfect location for hitting any of the mountains to ski/snowboard but be aware the town is pretty limited in regards to options for restaurants.
Great area
Great food at Murphy's Loft and also Robert Christian's Restaurant
