Best of Poconos Lifestyles

Day Spa - A tie between Shear Design Day Spa , South Sixth Street, Stroudsburg with a tremendous amount of experience and a penchant for making you feel comfortable, Shear Design is a great place to spend the day, and Ken and Company, Main St. Stroudsburg, Ken's attention to detail and the new second floor spa rooms and lounge make time here a comfortable experience.. It's the "Battle of the Day Spa's".

Drinking water, local-not bottled - We taste tested 4 local water sources, Stroudsburg Municipal, East Stroudsburg boro water, bottled water from the supermarket, and well water from a home in Paradise Township. AND THE WINNER IS....Stroudsburg Municipal Authority. Clearly the winner (pun intended). The best taste and clarity. Odd to think that water from town could be better than your own well. They must take a great interest in the amount of chlorine and other treatments to keep the water tasting so good.

Kennel - Gatehouse Kennels, Airport Road, East Stroudsburg."The Pet Resort of The Poconos". If you're vacationing in the Poconos, bring your pet(s) along, drop them off at this place and expect them to feel and act like THEY'VE been on a honeymoon when you pick them up.

Pedicure - Shear Design, South Sixth Street, Stroudsburg. Try this on for size... the Spa Pedicure This wonderous thing includes; an extended massage, nuturing clay masque, and hot aromatic towels DURING the clipping of your nails. Here's heaven on earth.

Place to Live - Hamilton Township Well, OK, Cherry Valley, if we must be specific. There are times and places when, if you shut out all the noise in your mind and just enjoy the view... you'll think you are in West Virginia. The rolling hills, the solitude, they way the sun comes up over the mountains in the morning. It's truly a shame to tell you about this, 'cause if Elmer's family ever decides to give up some of the estate y'all be standing right in line next to me to buy a piece.

Reason to Wake Up Early on Sunday Morning. Vintage Radio Hour on WESS 90.3 Music from the 60's, 70's and 80's. An opportunity to hear radio as it was ment to be. Lots of well appreciated music and little talking.
