I love this Pat, Takes me back to the movies, even Dirty Dancing era. Here is a site I found on the Sterling Inn and it describes the layout and all of the interesting things it had. abandonedplaygrounds.com/2019/07/24/hidden-poconos-the-sterling-inn-resort-hotel-of-the-mountains/ It also has a video tour. It was built in 1855 and it says it was left as it was when the owner died. WOW it was amazing. Thank you for visiting it, it is just amazing. Looks like they tried to keep it running it seems and closed in 2012 because of health code violations. I can just imagine back in the end of the late 1800s families coming from NYC to escape the summer heat of the city. They would take a train up and the Inn would pick them up in horse and buggies. I can see all the men heading back into the city to work on Sunday Nights. They had a bit of everything to entertain them. They were not just a motel with a bed. It is really so amazing. With the pools, tennis courts, ponds/lakes, gazebos, shuffleboards Wouldn't it be great to be the entertainment director there, all the dances and crafts to keep the families occupied until the men came back from the city on Friday nights lol now you have my mind reeling lol. There is also an ariel shot of the property, it is cast and gorgeous. It would be really great if someone brought it back to life. It is an era of goodness. Thank you again!!!

I want you to know a friend of mine wants to buy this and have me restore it. I was there today.

The family that ran and owns The Sterling Inn currently owns and runs The French Manor a few miles away.
Oh ok... yeah ashame when time takes away these places but the upkeep is tremendous.
I have a lot of good memories of the Poconos back in the early to mid 70's..
I used to work there for Ron Logan and his family. Good times!

thanks for your continued support
Such a shame to see places like this just left to rot.
Went there to eat many times. As of March 2024... Nothing has been done to fix it.
Too much to fix in my opinion. Too much competition with more modern places plus with bringing everything to code again my opinion would be costly.
Do you ever remember seeing it open?
Not in my life and I live in area for 18 years.
