Over 85 years ago a twelve year old boy named Jack and his friend were hiking to the top of Big Pocono. On their way, they discovered a jewel of a lake in one of the most spectacular mountain settings in Northeastern Pennsylvania. at jewel would become Mountain Springs Lake Resort. Charming cottages and winding country roads now grace the 325 woodland acres and pristine shores of the mile long spring-fed lake. e standard of quality established over 70 years ago by Jack and Marjorie Rader continues today as their children and grandchildren join them in preserving a proud family tradition.
