Canal Mobile Home Park Introduce

Canal Mobile Home Park is an established residential community situated in the heart of White Mills, Pennsylvania. This community serves as a vital resource for affordable housing in the scenic Lake Region of Wayne County. Nestled between the historic boroughs of Honesdale and Hawley, the park offers a tranquil setting for individuals and families looking to enjoy the beauty of the Poconos without the high costs typically associated with the area. The neighborhood is characterized by its unique location along the Lackawaxen River, providing residents with a front-row seat to the natural landscapes that define North Eastern Pennsylvania.

For Pennsylvania residents familiar with the heritage of the region, White Mills is a town steeped in history, once famous for its Dorflinger Glass works. Canal Mobile Home Park integrates into this quiet, small-town atmosphere, offering a mix of established residences and newer manufactured home models. The community is designed for those who value a slower pace of life, where the sound of the river and the surrounding wooded hills create a peaceful backdrop for daily living. As a land-lease community, it allows homeowners to enjoy the privacy of a single-family dwelling while maintaining a low-maintenance lifestyle in a picturesque mountain valley.

The park is conveniently located on Canal Road in White Mills, PA 18473. Its position is highly strategic for local commuters and outdoor enthusiasts alike. Situated just five minutes west of the Texas Palmyra Highway (Route 6), residents have quick access to the historic town of Hawley.

For residents who enjoy the water, the sprawling Lake Wallenpaupack—one of Pennsylvania's largest man-made lakes—is just a short drive away, offering endless opportunities for boating, swimming, and summer recreation.

Accessibility in this rural region is primarily vehicle-dependent, and the park is positioned to allow for easy travel to nearby hubs. It is a scenic 15-minute drive to Honesdale, the county seat of Wayne County, where residents can access healthcare facilities, large-scale grocery stores, and professional services. For winter sports enthusiasts, the community is a manageable drive from several major ski resorts, including Camelback and Blue Mountain.

Furthermore, the "friendly neighbor" atmosphere noted by long-term residents is a significant draw.

Choosing to live here means you are part of a community that values its proximity to the river and the history of White Mills. Whether you are a first-time homebuyer looking to escape high rents or a retiree seeking a low-maintenance home near the lake, Canal Mobile Home Park offers a unique opportunity to settle into the heart of the Poconos' Lake Region at an accessible price point.

The people that live on Canal Road going down the steep hill have stolen flag stone off my family's stone wall. That wall was built by my family almost 150 years ago with their blood sweat and tears not to have it taken down for people to have stepping stones to their trailers. Many of the trailers have also thrown dressers, tires, trash ect. Over the wall instead of paying to get rid of it like a normal upstanding citizen. I have posted laminated NO TRESPASSING signs up year after year and they are always destroyed or ripped down. There is a huge boulder at the end of my property and people have used it for graffiti. This is all very unacceptable. I will post pictures of the wall time stamped from the last few years, and every year more and more stones are missing. I will also post pictures of the trash they have thrown over the wall as well as the back of the trailers to show how junkie and cluttered they are. I will be giving a warning to the park owner this week and give them a week or two to make this right. Or then I will take legal action against both the owners of the park aswell as each tenant individually and I will throw every piece of trash back over the wall. And take MY stones back. I will be hanging new No Trespassing signs this week along with 8 camera's I bought. If I catch you on my property kid or not I will press charges to the fullest extent I can within the law. This is your warning. Take it or leave it just know it's coming in less then 7 days. 🗣
