If you love the outdoors, you’ll cherish your time at Arrowhead Lake, a planned township on the banks of the namesake lake. During the summer months, you can swim, fish, tan on the beach, or boat on the lake. State Game Lands are within a 30-minute drive and provide excellent spots for hunting and trapping enthusiasts. In the winter months, you can visit Hickory Run State Park for skiing, sledding, and ice skating. When the time comes to choose a place to stay, forget hotels and pick from one of the many fabulous lakeside rentals in the city instead. Continue reading to find the top vacation rentals in Arrowhead Lake, Pennsylvania.

Moreover, a one-time vehicle fee of 15 USD and a transaction fee of 10–25 USD are also applicable for the duration of your stay.
