Experience the perfect getaway at the historic Shawnee Inn and Golf Resort, where relaxation and adventure come together in the heart of the Poconos. Bri and Dee recently had the chance to check out the newly expanded spa, offering guests the opportunity to unwind with a range of luxurious treatments. Whether you're visiting as a day guest or staying overnight, the spa provides a serene escape with services like full-body massages, facials, manicures, pedicures, and hair treatments. As Jeromy Wo, the resort’s spokesperson, puts it, “We’re so excited about the spa at The Shawnee Inn and Golf Resort. It really makes it into a destination." Shawnee’s new "circuit" experience includes a sauna, cold plunge, hot plunge, and red-light therapy, creating the ultimate rejuvenating experience.

As destination spa getaways gain popularity, Shawnee is the perfect spot to plan your next retreat. Jeromy shares, "It’s a wonderful opportunity just to add a reason to come to Shawnee," especially during those shoulder seasons when guests are looking for a reason to travel. With the spa’s tranquil atmosphere and the resort’s beautiful location between the Appalachian Mountain range and the Delaware River, Shawnee is an ideal destination for girlfriend getaways, romantic escapes, or any special occasion. The resort, built in 1911, offers a variety of accommodations, from traditional rooms to suites and cottages, ensuring every guest finds the perfect stay. And with seasonal activities like river trips, pontoon tours, and glamping, you’ll never run out of things to do.

Once you’re relaxed, head over to Shawnee Craft Brewery, just steps from the spa. Jeromy notes, "Our Shawnee Craft Brewery was actually introduced almost sixteen years ago, and we brew our own beers right here on property." Here, you can enjoy house-brewed beers and delicious wood-fired pizza in a charming beer garden, during the warmer months. Guests love lounging on the side lawn, playing yard games, and enjoying classic pub fare like pizza, pretzels and chicken legs. With its laid-back atmosphere, the brewery is the perfect spot to unwind after a day of relaxation.

Golf enthusiasts will also love Shawnee’s renowned island golf course, which has undergone a transformation with a new permanent bridge, providing year-round access. Jeromy explains, “Since the inception of our resort, our team was building our bridge in the spring and tearing it down in the fall. With a permanent bridge, we are now able to access the island year-round.” The island, once only accessible seasonally, is now open for golf, tram tours, stargazing, and even a special Christmas tram tour. Shawnee has long been a favorite of golf legends like Arnold Palmer, Sam Snead, and Jackie Gleason, making it a must-visit for golfers seeking a unique and historic experience. When people play on the golf course at Shawnee, they’re really playing among legends.

Whether you're staying for a weekend or just visiting for the day, Shawnee Inn and Golf Resort offers an authentic experience you won’t find anywhere else. From the stunning views of the Delaware River to the exclusive amenities, it’s clear why so many choose Shawnee for their getaway. As Jeromy so perfectly puts it, "It really is that authentic experience that you can’t get anywhere else." Come for the golf, stay for the relaxation, and enjoy the unforgettable charm of this historic resort.
