room design concept will be inspired by the natural elements of the Poconos, maximizing dramatic views of the surrounding mountain scene. Rooms will feature warm, rich tones with vivid accent colors. Modern furniture will complement the spaces such as polished quartz
desktops with waves of dark gray and black swirl recalling natural minerals. Plush fabrics with organic patterns will be accented with splashes of auburn reds, and custom curated artwork will incorporate earthy forest tones. Thoughtful design details will include bedside
pendants in bronze metal finish and seeded antique glass shades. The spacious suites will showcase rich chocolate brown with subtle taupe, enhanced by vibrant blue and yellow accents. In addition to a spacious shower, suite bathrooms will feature freestanding tubs. - Ballroom and Events Center: Currently, Mount Airy Casino Resort offers 4,000 square feet of flexible banquet / meeting space for groups ranging in size from 30-200 people.
