From Wilkes-Barre/Scranton International Airport (AVP)
AVP is the nearest major airport commonly used for Mount Airy. Ground options from AVP include rental car, taxi, or rideshare; there is no regularly advertised airport shuttle run by Mount Airy.
Driving is the most direct choice. Follow local directions toward I-80/PA-33 and then Route 940 west into Mount Pocono until you reach Woodland Road; the resort street address is 312 Woodland Road.
- Recommended: rental car for flexibility to reach outlets, waterparks, and trailheads.
- Taxis and rideshares are available from AVP; confirm fares and wait times at the airport curb.
- Mount Airy does not list an airport shuttle service; check the resort if you need a private transfer.

From Lehigh Valley International Airport (ABE)
ABE is a common alternative for domestic flights. Driving takes roughly the same order of magnitude as AVP depending on traffic and route choice.
If you arrive at ABE and want to avoid renting a car, arrange a taxi, prebooked shuttle, or rideshare — availability varies by time of day and local providers.
- Drive routes typically use I-78 west then local highways north into the Poconos.
- Plan extra travel time for weekends and holiday traffic toward resort areas.
- Confirm payment and tipping policy with your ground carrier (major credit cards accepted at the resort; verify vehicle payment rules separately).
| Option | Notes |
|---|---|
| Rental car | Best for exploring regional attractions; parking at the resort is complimentary. |
| Taxi / Rideshare | Convenient for direct transfer; prebook if arriving late at night. |
| Private transfer | Good if traveling with golf clubs or heavy luggage — coordinate in advance. |
From Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) and international arrivals
EWR is a viable choice for international or wide-range domestic flights. The drive can be substantially longer than AVP or ABE, so factor that into arrival plans.
Public-transit combinations are possible but take significantly longer; many visitors choose to pick up a rental car or arrange a private transfer for door-to-door service.
- Expect multi-hour travel by car depending on traffic; consider flight arrival time before reserving the resort room (check-in begins at 4:00 pm).
- If using public transit, research bus/train connections and a final taxi/rideshare from the nearest Pocono station.
- Call the resort or BookResorts agents (+1 (888) 605-1350) if you want help arranging transfers or have late-night arrivals.
| Service | Practical tip |
|---|---|
| Car rental | Most flexible; suited for sightseeing in the Poconos. |
| Bus + taxi | Cheaper but longer — check schedules in advance. |
| Private shuttle | Comfortable option for groups; must be booked ahead. |
From New York City (bus or driving)
You can reach Mount Pocono from New York City by driving or by scheduled bus service. Martz Bus and other operators run routes from the Port Authority area to the Poconos; travel time by bus is about three hours depending on connections.
If you drive, allow about two hours without heavy traffic. A car or rideshare remains the easiest way to reach the resort and to visit nearby attractions like Crossings Premium Outlets or Camelbeach.
- Bus: check current schedules and arrival station (Pocono or Mount Pocono stops) and then take a short taxi or rideshare to 312 Woodland Road.
- Driving: use GPS to route via I-80 or I-87/87 connectors depending on your starting point and traffic.
- If coming by bus, note that taxis/rideshares in the Pocono area may be limited evenings — prebook a pickup if possible.
| Mode | Typical duration |
|---|---|
| Bus (NYC to Mount Pocono) | Around 3 hours |

| Rideshare/taxi | Depends on provider availability; fares vary |
