Six stories, with earth tone palette, impressive soaring lobby (with waterfall), and stylish rooms Mount Airy was named Pennsylvania’s first AAA-rated 4-Diamond Casino. Then, twelve years ago, the “Beautiful Mount Airy Lodge” of yore was demolished, and in its place stands a structure that draws a more refined clientele, and would fit nicely in the Adirondack woods. In courting newlyweds in the 60’s and 70’s with lots of gold leaf and heart-shaped tubs, the Lodge symbolized all that was kitschy about the Pocono’s.
Now known as Mount Airy Casino Resort in Mount Pocono PA, people of a certain demographic (Boomers, especially) will recall the earworm of a jingle from its previous life: “All you have to bring is your love of everything…Beautiful Mount Airy Lodge.”
