Thank you so much!
Thank you for taking such good care of our administrators at their retreat last week. They were delighted with everything including the sleeping rooms, meeting room, food a activities. I also want to express my appreciation to you for making by job easier in planning the retreat. You both were extremely helpful and efficient and had all details, big and small, covered. This is their third retreat and I have to say that it was the easiest and smoothest by far to plan, thanks to you both.
Great Time at Split Rock Resort
I just wanted to say that our group had a great time at Split Rock. We made good use out of the Lake and the Pizza place. The kids all had a blast and we and many others are looking to do it again next year. You treated us right and had plenty for us to do. Everyone we came in contact with, from Beach Patrol to lifeguards to bartenders to front desk to turtle races and games was terrific. Thanks

The Famous Split Rock
500 million years ago there was an ocean here! 400 million years ago, this part of the Earth was a mass of convulsions, earthquakes and tremors. 300 million years ago, three glaciers slowly and formidably crept over the same land that is now Lake Harmony and, of course, The Split Rock Resort. It is believed that the actual split rock, a large outcrop of red sandstone, was the result of the last ice sheet, known as the Wisconsin Glaciation which occurred about 70,000 years ago.
A little more than 180 years ago, the Lehigh Coal and Navigation Company bought 45,000 acres in the Pocono Mountains to protect its headwater rights to the Lehigh River. The development and transfiguration of the land began in 1938 when Robert V. White took over the presidency of the company. Mr. White realized the potential of the beautiful mountain terrain, naturally stocked with fish and game. Within 10 years of its opening in 1941, The Lodge was one of the East Coast's finest year-round sports resorts.
With the demise of the coal industry, Lehigh Coal and Navigation lost much of its interest in The Lodge, and it was sold to Treadway Inn in July of 1967. Treadway operated Split Rock until shortly after a devastating fire destroyed a major portion of The Lodge on Sunday, August 23, 1970. In 1971, a group of Split Rock cottage owners formed Pocono Recreation, Inc. and purchased the Split Rock property from Treadway in June of that year. Pocono Recreation, Inc. constructed 50 rooms at the Lodge and operated the property though out the 70's. On April 2, 1981, the stock was purchased by Jack and Barbara Kalins and merged it into their company, Vacation Charters, Ltd.
Since that time, The Lodge has been developed into a first class resort, and more than $150 million has been invested on new facilities to accommodate the growing number of guests, as well as attracting new visitors. The owners, management, and staff realize the rich tradition and history of Split Rock, and will continue to serve our customers in accordance with the time honored standards expected by our vacationing guests.
