The quiet unincorporated community of Lake Harmony, Pennsylvania, has long served as a popular summer retreat, thanks to its lovely, eponymous glacial lake and proximity to the Pocono Mountains. In the winter, you can visit two ski mountains—Big Boulder Mountain and Jack Frost Ski Resort—just a few minutes' drive away. In the summer, there's Hawks Falls in Hickory Run State Park (also home to Boulder Field, an 18-acre rock field that has baffled local geologists for centuries), or nearby destinations like the Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railway or the Lehigh Gorge Trail.

Other highlights include the Poconos Farmers Market, where you can buy fresh vegetables and baked goods, along with fare from local eateries like Piggy's and Nick's Lake House.

If any of that sounds appealing to you, consider the four-bedroom, three-bath mountain house at 105 Crosshill Rd., now on the market for $529,900. The 3,672-square-foot house, which was built in 2010, has an open concept living/dining room with double-height ceilings, a full wall of windows, and a stately stone fireplace.
