A private lake, a hundred secluded acres and the whole place to yourselves for a weekend: that is the idea behind a wedding at Watonka Outdoor Facilities near Hawley. The family-run property in the Poconos covers 100 acres of quiet, rustic land with a 10-acre lake, and couples have the entire property from Friday to Sunday. For wedding photos and video, the lake, the woods and the grounds give your photographer and videographer room to roam, and with guests staying all weekend there are plenty of candid moments for a wedding film beyond the ceremony itself.
Couples who have married here describe saying their vows outdoors at an arch on the grounds and holding a cocktail hour on the deck. The farmhouse-style building has a dining hall that seats up to 200 indoors, a rec room, a commercial kitchen your caterer can use and a 1,500 square foot outdoor deck. Some couples bring in a tent and dance floor for the wedding reception on the grounds. The weekend can also hold a rehearsal dinner, a welcome party, an after party and a farewell brunch, all on the property.
The wedding package includes 16 rustic cabins with up to 130 beds, so many guests can stay on site Friday and Saturday nights, around the wedding day. Watonka is a BYOB facility, and caterers serving alcohol must be licensed; you hire your own caterer, and the venue keeps a preferred vendor list. Parking is in the upper grass field. The indoor spaces are not handicap accessible, which is worth planning around for older guests. The season runs May through October, and the property closes for the winter.
Watonka is family owned and operated and is in its 61st year of operation. Beyond weddings, it rents the property to groups and hosts other private celebrations.
Locations set their own rules about where photographers and videographers can stand, when they can take photos or film, and whether vendors need approval. We don't state those rules here.
