That's exactly what Carroll Valley Resort offers and it is located in the small Pennsylvania town of Carroll Valley, just outside of Gettysburg.

Carroll Valley Resort features two golf courses, hotel, tavern, smoking lounge and is at the foot of one of the most popular ski resorts in South Eastern Pennsylvania. The Tavern also features beer and wing specials, and twice a week they hold World Tavern Poker Tour Texas Hold'em tournaments. What ever it is you are looking for there is a good chance that Carroll Valley has it. In the summer, it’s golf, wings and beer. In the winter, it’s skiing and, well, wings and beer. Maybe a cup of coffee (Irish?).   It’s truly a man’s getaway.
