Sip Into Summer at Wally Wine Fest in the Pocono Mountains

If you’re looking for the perfect way to kick off summer in the Pocono Mountains, the annual Wally Wine Fest at Lake Wallenpaupack is one event you won’t want to miss. Held lakeside in nearby Hawley, Pennsylvania, this popular June festival brings together wine lovers, live music, shopping, food, and beautiful mountain scenery for an unforgettable weekend experience. Hosted at Silver Birches Resort along the shores of Lake Wallenpaupack, Wally Wine Fest features over 100 domestic and international wines available for tasting, along with live entertainment, artisan vendors, and a lively yet relaxing atmosphere that perfectly captures summer in the Poconos. Guests can stroll the waterfront with a glass of wine in hand, listen to music overlooking the lake, browse local vendors, and spend the day soaking in everything that makes the Pocono Mountains such a special destination.

One of the things we love most about this event is that it combines excitement with relaxation. After a fun afternoon at the festival, there’s nothing better than returning to the peaceful mountainside atmosphere of Saddleview Bed & Breakfast. Guests can unwind by the fire pit, relax in the hot tub, enjoy the quiet sounds of nature, or simply sit outside with a morning coffee before heading out for another day of exploring the Pocono Mountains.Wally Wine Fest is also the perfect excuse for a romantic weekend getaway, a girls’ trip, or a summer escape with friends. Pair the festival with local restaurants, scenic drives around Lake Wallenpaupack, hiking, shopping in Hawley, or even a horse experience back at Saddleview for a full Pocono getaway experience.

The 2026 Wally Wine Fest is scheduled for June 5–7 in Hawley, Pennsylvania, just a short drive from Saddleview Bed & Breakfast. Tickets and festival details are available through the official Wally Wine Fest website. Whether you’re visiting for the wine, the lake views, the music, or simply a relaxing mountain weekend, Saddleview Bed & Breakfast is the perfect home base for your Pocono summer getaway.
