Buehler's HistoryBuehler's Idlewild Inn has been a Farm and Guest House since it was built in 1885. The hospitality of clean rooms and great home cooked meals continues today as it began over 130 years ago. Many of our guests have returned for generations with their families. Mark and Mary Crouthamel have been operating the inn for the last twenty three years. We pride ourselves in our all you can eat home cooked meals with many natural home grown ingredients from our gardens. Located in the Pocono Mountains of PA, it is an easy drive from Philadelphia and New York City.
The main Farm House was built in 1885 and has a living room with fireplace, a small library, a knotty pine dining room, and 8 guest bedrooms. The Spring House was built in the 1968 and has 5 guest bedrooms. The rooms are simple - no TV, radio, alarm clock. We ring a rising bell in the morning and bells at meal times - the same as it's been done for years. The bathrooms are shared. We have an old barn, tennis court, basketball hoop, pickle ball, an in ground swimming pool, swingset, an eleven acre pond/lake for fishing, canoeing, rowing, and paddle boating. By the lake we have a big campfire pit for guests to build fires, toast s'mores, and relax. There is a game room for rainy days and cool nights, which has a fireplace, ping pong, table shuffle board, card tables, and a fully furnished kitchen. We are open from the beginning of May through the end of October. Spring/Fall Weekends are Friday afternoon to Sunday mid morning. Our summer schedule begins during the last week of June and goes until Labor Day Weekend, where we're open all week - Sunday 6pm cookout - Saturday 8:30am breakfast. |
