About this property
Watermelon Chateau -12 mins to Elk Mtn- Lake View
Welcome to The Watermelon Chateau, our cute and cozy cottage in beautiful Northeast PA! Come enjoy every activity the region has to offer year round. Skiers will love the close proximity to Elk Mountain. You can also enjoy kayaking, biking, hiking, golfing and more during the warmer months. It's hard to beat an early morning coffee or evening glass of wine on the deck overlooking the water, and the fire pit is ideal for roasting marshmallows under the crystal clear night skies.
The space
Featuring two bedrooms and two full baths, our interior space is fun and flirty, with a modern look and chic accents throughout. You will love the living room area, with a large picture window that looks at the water, plus an updated kitchen perfectly suited for the chefs at heart. And if cooking isn't your thing, there are numerous local dining options, from upscale lakefront ambiance to quick and easy takeout. Come and enjoy everything NEPA has to offer at The Watermelon Chateau!
