Farið yfir af @darianny: I found this gem while scrolling TikTok and booked a spontaneous family trip. The nature trail and river behind the hotel were my absolute favorite parts—so relaxing! We ate amazing Latin food, and while the pool was chilly, we still had a blast. Definitely recommend it.

Is The Woodlands Inn open?
No. It was closed by code enforcement in November 2025 and remains shuttered as of early 2026.
Why was the hotel closed?
Unpaid utility bills led to a power cut, which revealed fire safety and electrical code violations.
Can I get a refund if I booked online?
You must contact your booking platform (Expedia, Booking.com) immediately; the hotel front desk is unmanned.
Is the nightclub Club Evolution still open?
No, the nightclub and restaurants (Shogun, Crescenzo's) inside are also closed.
What is the best nearby alternative?
The Mohegan Pennsylvania Casino Resort is just down the road and fully operational.
Will it reopen?
Unclear. Owners stated intent to fix issues, but the 'unsafe' designation remains.

The Seven Tubs Nature Area nearby is a stunning spot for a hike, regardless of where you stay.
