Lake Harmony, PA

At the top end of this photo is The Resort at Split Rock. The pictures below show that long established four season resort on Lake Harmony. Originaly built and owned by Lehigh Coal and Navigation Co, the Lodge was a vacation get-away for hunting and fishing for their executives but quickly eveolved into a public facility. The first picture below shows the Lodge from the swimming/dock area.

The picture below is a panoramic shot of Lake Harmony from the docks at Split Rock. From this viewpoint you are looking toward the bottom of the photo in the aerial view above.

We are digging up some more old photos of the area and will psot them later.

Lake Harmony was frozen over for most of the winter. This was just prior to starting to thaw. taken at the "spilway" end of the lake (where it "flows" into the Tunhkannock and tobyhanna Creeks Watershed) Ice fishing is a popular sport here when the conditions are right (which is most winters)

Someone hoping for Spring/Summer and th ewarmer weather. Maybe the ice with the fishing then will be with a cold drink rather than fishing through the ice.

The Easter Bunny Greeting arriving children at the Annual Easter Egg Hunt sponsored by the Bradley REALTORS(R) Team and another local REALTOR(R), Maureen Kennedy, , for the local area children. In addition to the treats/toys found in all of the the eggs, 1st, 2nd & 3rd place Easter Basket prizes are awarded to the lucky children finding the special eggs.

Some of the many children checking their egg contents. Four age groups, 1600 eggs, and 12 special eggs make up the day. ALL of the eggs were found again this year (which is great as we do not need to go around to find them after the event).

The above picture was taken from the southeastern end of the Lake. THe Resort at Split Rock is located at the top of this picture. Lake Harmony, the largets natural lake in the Pocono Mountains of Pa, is a 125 acre spring fed lake which permits power boats(with proper registration, boat tags, identification, and insurance) for area property owners to fish, water ski and enjoy the outdoors. It has been a popular vacationing area since before WWII and has evolved from a fishing/hunting/summers oriented venue into a four seasons resort area with a growing full-time residence population.

Split Rock is located on the NW end of Lake Harmony. The views above were taken from our Split Rock Neighborhood website.

Lake Harmony is about 125 acres in size and while that is small, it is the largest natural lake in the Pocono Mountains. It is a spring fed lake, with over flow going into the Tobyhanna Creek .and Tunkhannock Creek Watershed. It is about 15 feet deep at the moment (it has been deeper but storm water runoff is having its impacts). A local group, Lake Harmony Concerned Citizens have been actively monitoring, measuring and treating the lake for some time now. It is improving in condition and only stands to return to its full glory with continued agressive control of what goes into it.

The above views of Lake Harmony are taken from our Neighborhood Website. Clockwise starting upper left they show: the docks at Nick's Lake House (our pontoon boat is the one with red roof on the end, the docks owned by Lake Harmony Estates Home Owners Association, tennis courts for LHE HOA and their private beach on the lake.

Access to and Boats on the lake require a yearly boat tag and must be owned by property owners in Lake Harmony as it is a private lake.
