Tanglwood Resort

The Resort and Its Setting

Tanglwood Resort is a timeshare property in Tafton, Pennsylvania, within Pike County and the broader Pocono Mountains region. It operates independently rather than as part of a major hotel brand, but it carries RCI affiliation, meaning owners aren't limited to using their week only at the home resort. Specific unit layouts and on-site amenities can vary by season, so anyone buying or renting is best off confirming current details directly with the resort or through the seller before committing.

Tafton and the Pocono Mountains

Tafton sits within one of the Northeast's longest-established mountain vacation regions. The Poconos have built a reputation over decades for outdoor recreation and family-friendly travel, and that infrastructure — trails, lakes, rivers, small towns — is largely what owners are buying into when they choose a week here. Lake Wallenpaupack, a short drive away, is the area's big draw for boating, fishing and swimming in the warmer months. Further out, the Delaware River is a go-to spot for whitewater rafting, kayaking and canoeing, and Tannersville offers a walkable mix of shops, restaurants and trailhead access. Summer brings the lake and river crowd, fall draws visitors for foliage, and winter shifts the focus to holiday travel and cold-weather activities — meaning a week at Tanglwood can suit quite different travel styles depending on when it falls.

Selling or Renting Out a Week Here

If you own at Tanglwood Resort and are ready to sell or rent out your week, BidMyTimeshare.com is a private resale and rental marketplace: you list your week yourself, set your own asking price, and buyers or renters contact you directly through the platform. There's no commission on the sale — sellers pay a single, one-time listing fee to get their week in front of buyers, and that's it.

Because Tanglwood is RCI-affiliated, that's a point worth highlighting in your listing — buyers interested in exchange flexibility will want to know their week could potentially be deposited with RCI, subject to RCI's own rules and availability at the time.

As an independently operated resort, resales here typically go through Tanglwood's own owners' association or on-site management rather than a branded resale desk. If you're buying a resale week, ask the seller (or the resort directly) for the current transfer fee and the latest annual maintenance fee before you agree on a price — these can change and aren't something we publish ourselves, so get them confirmed in writing. It's also worth asking exactly what transfers with the week: some resales already include RCI enrolment or exchange credits, others don't, and that can affect what the week is worth to you.

Practical Notes for Buyers and Renters

Renters are usually looking for straightforward things: which weeks or seasons are available, what's included in the unit, and how close it is to Lake Wallenpaupack or the Delaware River for day trips. Peak interest in the Poconos tends to cluster around summer weekends, fall foliage season in September and October, and the winter holidays, so these periods book up faster and are worth listing or booking well ahead of time. Outside of those windows, the region is quieter and can suit buyers who prefer flexibility over fixed peak-season travel. Whatever your plans, confirm amenities and any seasonal closures directly with the resort before finalising a purchase or booking.
