There is another place just like, that near where I live in PA. It was called Mt. Airy Lodge.

I remember their TV commercials playing all the time in the 1980s showing honeymoon couples relaxing playing tennis etc. it was a huge complex in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania. Every room looked like the set of a bad 1970s porno movie.

YES!Bad 1970s porn movie is the best description. But in a good way, the place was so cool. I have been there several times, not as a guest but to visit friends who worked there. I would go up there to hang out. My friend would get the master keys and show us the unoccupied crazy looking rooms that had red flocked wallpaper and gold cherub lamps. I havent been there since it changed into a casino but I hear its very nice. A non-cheesy nice.

I went to pocono mountain high school which was adjacent to mount airy. we would cut class and hang out there until security chased us off.
in the early '90's the place was really falling apart. so the casino is a huge improvement.

as a bonus the guy playing saxophone in the commercials is fred bevans he was one of my friend's father.
the ceaser's resort was way more '70s porno though.
