During the warmer months... {Liberty Mountain Resort, Carroll Valley, PA}

Now that the ski season is officially over and spring has sprung, a lot of people ask, "What's there to do at Liberty during the warmer months?" We happily respond with, "There's lots to do at (and around) Liberty all year round, even when it's warm outside!" Here's a look at what you can do at Liberty when it's not snowing...

The Liberty Hotel: Open year-round with mountainside views and a quiet atmosphere, perfect for summer getaways! More details about getaway packages, spring and summer rates, and availability here. There are also rooms for meetings for groups of 15 to 450! Check out our conference and meeting facilities/services here.



The Liberty outdoor swimming pool: Swim mountainside at this Olympic-size swimming pool; open to all hotel guests.



Regional Golf: Complete a summer getaway with a round or two of golf! There are lots of golf courses within driving distance of Liberty - Carroll Valley golf course is actually right across the street! Check out our list of regional golf courses here.
