Location: estate isolation vs downtown convenience

Skytop Lodge – Location

Skytop sits on a 5,500-acre private estate in the Poconos and is best reached by car.

  • Rural, resort setting with lakes, miles of hiking trails and on-site activities.
  • Driving is the most convenient access; nearest major airport is Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (AVP).
  • On-property shuttle service circulates the broad estate.

Choose Skytop if you want wide-open grounds, trails and an on-site activity hub.

Hotel Fauchere – Location

Hotel Fauchere is in the heart of Milford within easy walking distance of local museums and the Delaware River.

  • Central address: 401 Broad St — close to The Columns Museum and the Upper Mill.
  • Walking access to town restaurants, shops and riverside trails.
  • A car is recommended for regional day trips, though town errands are walkable.

Choose Hotel Fauchere for a compact, walkable base in Milford.

Rooms: variety and capacity vs individually decorated guestrooms

Skytop Lodge – Rooms

Skytop offers many room types across a large lodge and cottages to suit families and groups.

  • 193 rooms and suites (48 suites) across multiple buildings and floors.
  • Room types include Cottage and Deluxe Room, 1 King Bed (Deluxe King / Premium King).
  • Rollaway beds available; pack-and-plays on request; Wi‑Fi included.

Skytop gives range and capacity for families, groups and multi-room needs.

Hotel Fauchere – Rooms

Hotel Fauchere has 16 individually decorated guestrooms with upscale linens and bath features.

  • 16 rooms total; room types listed include Superior Room, Suite, Compact Room, Deluxe Room, Premium Room and Compact Room, 1 Queen Bed.
  • Rooms feature espresso makers, flat-screen TVs, down comforters and Frette Italian sheets.
  • Bathrooms have deep soaking tubs and rainfall showerheads in many rooms.

Hotel Fauchere suits travelers after a small, well-appointed boutique room rather than a wide range of room types.

Dining & drinks: multiple resort venues vs a single in-house restaurant

Skytop Lodge – Dining & drinks

Skytop has several on-site dining venues covering casual to fine dining.

  • Windsor (breakfast & dinner) and Lakeview (Mediterranean dinner) are the resort’s signature restaurants.
  • Casual options include The Taproom, The Market and Corner Roast; reservations required at some venues.
  • Daily service charge covers some amenities but meals are typically billed separately.

Skytop is better if you want variety without leaving the property.

Hotel Fauchere – Dining & drinks

Hotel Fauchere offers one on-site restaurant and a bar/lounge and limited room service.

  • Complimentary continental breakfast served daily (8 AM–11 AM).
  • On-site dining and bar provide a small, concentrated dining experience.
  • Concierge services can help with local restaurant recommendations and reservations.

Hotel Fauchere is a good pick if you prefer a single refined dining option and local town choices within walking distance.

Pools & signature amenity: Aquatic Center and lake vs local-access offerings

Skytop Lodge – Pools & signature amenity

Skytop’s Aquatic Center and seasonal lake beach are core family amenities.

  • Indoor pool and splash pad open year-round (9:00 am–9:00 pm); hydro spa and dry sauna restricted to 16+.
  • Seasonal lake beach with Wibit inflatable water park (weight and life jacket rules apply).
  • Pool/Aquatic Center access is for resort guests and homeowners only; indoor pool may require pre-booking.

If pools, water play and a lakeside beach are priorities, Skytop is the clear fit.

Hotel Fauchere – Pools & signature amenity

Hotel Fauchere’s listing notes fitness facilities and nearby water- and outdoors activities, but no resort-style aquatic center.

  • Fitness facilities on site and outdoor recreation (rafting, fishing, kayaking) nearby.
  • Walking access to the Delaware River and nearby outdoor sites; property lists ‘Fishing nearby’ and ‘Rafting nearby.’
  • No published large indoor pool or lake beach on the supplier listing.

Hotel Fauchere works if you plan town- or region-based outdoor activities rather than on-site resort pools.

Wellness & nightlife: spa, fitness and quiet evenings

Skytop Lodge – Wellness & nightlife

Skytop runs a full spa and an active evening bar scene alongside family programming.

  • The Nest at Skytop Lodge offers massages, facials and specialty treatments; spa guests must be 18+.
  • Library Lounge and The Taproom provide evening bars; dress codes apply in some dining rooms.
  • Fitness center open daily with classes and equipment for guests.

Skytop balances family-friendly evening options with a dedicated adult spa and lounges.

Hotel Fauchere – Wellness & nightlife

Hotel Fauchere focuses on a quieter, refined atmosphere with a single bar/lounge and fitness facilities.

  • One bar/lounge on site for evening drinks; room service available during limited hours.
  • Fitness facilities available; spa-style full-service offerings are not published by the supplier listing.
  • Concierge can arrange local evening plans, but nightlife is town-scale rather than resort-scale.

Hotel Fauchere is better for lower-key evenings and a compact, refined stay.
