Hotel overview

Situated just across Route 6 from the seasonal public beach on Lake Wallenpaupack, this vintage 2-star motel offers a quiet retreat with striking water views. Established in 1952 and still family-run, it attracts travelers seeking an unpretentious, affordable stay close to outdoor activities.

Rooms are modest but well-equipped with air conditioning, a kitchen area, and free Wi-Fi. The property is smoke-free and welcomes families with accessible facilities, though pets are not permitted. Guests often appreciate the motel’s peaceful atmosphere and proximity to local attractions such as hiking trails and boating on the lake.

On-site dining is anchored by Gresham's Chop House, an Italian-American steakhouse known for its hearty meals and friendly vibe. While breakfast isn't provided, several nearby diners and eateries offer convenient options. The motel’s location makes it easy to explore Hawley’s small-town charm as well as prominent parks and recreational areas.

“Clean and comfortable. Walking distance to the lake and the chophouse, and there’s plenty to do, and the view is gorgeous. Very affordable, and the room comes with ac and heat, a microwave, and a fridge. The manager was also helpful and friendly. If you’re coming down for a weekend, this is the perfect place to stay.”

“We had a two night stay 09/09-09/10/22. Our room was very clean and comfortable with fresh towels and face cloths both days. The staff was very friendly and personable, and breakfast at the Paupack Diner was great. We had a lovely view of the lake from our patio chairs. Our stay was short but comfortable and relaxing. It was also quiet at night and if we are up that way again, we will definitely stay there.”

“Gresham’s Lake View Motel is the place my Mom’s family stayed at year after year in the 50s and 60s. The location is awesome, right across from Lake Wally, with their own dock) and next to Chops Restaurant (delicious and a bit upscale for the area) and Wally’s Pizzeria (very unfancy, but also delicious - the Mexican food is good too!). The rooms are absolutely basic - and if you don’t know that in advance, it’s an adjustment. But it sure beats camping (says this non-camper). And the service is wonderful. Amy made us feel at home, helped us in a pinch with our family picnic & bbq, and told us the tales of the resident beavers. Highly recommend!”
