Wikipedia description:

Glen Summit Springs is a private community located in Northeastern Pennsylvania, United States, on the northern slope of the eastern end of Nescopeck Mountain, where it sweeps to the north to meet the southward bend of Penobscot Mountain. The area has long been known regionally for its mountain springs and is now protected by over 450 acres (180 ha) of pristine, uncultivated forest made up of privately owned and conservation lands. The area was once the summer residence of many of the Wyoming Valley elite including the Kirbys, Welles, Hollenbacks, and Sterlings. The community is located in Fairview Township, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, east of the census-designated place of Mountain Top.
