Hank’s & My Most Memorable Getaway

Kendra-Wilkinson-Hank-Baskett-Couples-Retreat-Poconos-1005093

While Hank and I were dating we went to place called Cove Haven in the Poconos.  Its a couples resort stuck in the 70s and it was sooooo old school.  The best part was that they take it so seriously. They weren’t trying to be funny, this place was for REAL!

We arrived and there was seriously no one else there…the whole resort was ours.  When we got to our room, the first thing we noticed was there were no windows and no clocks.  It was like a cave haha.  So basically their goal is for you to forget about the time, and forget about what’s going on in the outside world, which wasn’t hard to do since it was like we were time warped into a different decade!!!

The room also had a heart shaped jacuzzi, a pool, mirrors all around the bed and a bottle of champagne with a plastic cork waiting for us.  The bed was of course round and Hank barely fit on it…his legs were hanging off the edge lololol.  One of my favorite memories from the trip was the night when Hank got up and was trying to find his way back to the bed, but because there were no windows and it was pitch black, he walked smack into a pillar in the middle of the room and all I heard was the loudest thump as he hit the ground!  I was just laughing my ass off!!!! lololol

We did every single activity the place had to offer and barely showered the entire week lol.  We did archery, fed deer, went ice skating (Hank had to wear knee pads and wrist pads haha), and TRIED to go mountain biking.  They gave us these oooold school bikes without gears and the second we got to a hill we both just shook our heads and turned around haha.  We also took a horse and buggy ride which basically went around a cul de sac.

One of the nights we played sex trivia with the other couples staying there and they were all at least 40 years older than us!  There was an MC who was asking everyone how long they had been together.  People were shouting out “30 years” and “50 years” and “25 years” and I just shouted out “7 months!!!!!!”  lololol

This trip was one of the funniest and most unique experiences of my life and it really made us fall in love.  You have to be with your best friend to go to a place like this…we were just laughing the entire time!  If I could recommend any trip for a couple to take, I would definitely tell them to go here!!!  I’m telling you, this place was the best!!! All we had was each other and just so many good laughs!

    To Desiree, Hank isn’t on the Eagles anymore, He went to the Colts….Not tryin’ to be rude, just clearing that up…

    And to AnnaMarie – She’s due on the 25th of Dec. – Christmas Day :)

    And I swear Kendra, I’m predicting Dec. 19th or 20th for the baby to come, but all in all congrats on all the blessings in your life!! :)

  38. jenny says:

    i’m sure kendra can manage to get induced so it’s convenient that her family and everyone can be there for the birth of Hankie pankie jr. you should make some of those Kendra jerseys that you are wearing at the beginning of the shows with the go kendra song, and sell them online.

  39. Jen says:

    Kendra,
    I hope Indy is treating you well!! If you need a good doc for Hank Jr you will need to come to Riley Childrens Downtown!!

  40. LYNN says:

    Kendra, We love you and hank …miss you …i also miss you and the girls from the show.I am not going to watch them…I dont think they are going to be good for hef. What is he thinking ..oh i know what he wishes he still had!!!!! I want him to get back with holly. What do u think of the twins…oh .whatever

  41. LYNN says:

    well kenda… we here at indianapolis are very happy you all came here…we love you all. thanks

  42. Sarah says:

    I said earlier I never comment on these things, but here I go again…can I just say….I’m boycotting the other Girls of the Playboy Mansion show, they will never have anything on you guys, those twins are so f***ing ugly.
    Please keep doing your show :) and bring Hank to England woohoo!
    Right I’m not commenting anymore cos it’s getting obsessive!
    xxxxxxx

  43. Samantha says:

    My husband and I went to the Pocono Palace by Cesars! We had a blast. There was actually people there our own age so it wasn’t to bad! We are an athletic couple so we played basketball, raquetball, went snowmobiling (it was February for our anniversary) and shot alot of pool! We had a blast getting away for the 2 days!

  44. Cindy says:

    Don’t you just love that room so do we but at night you have to leave the bathroom light on….Cove Haven is the best we go like 2 to 3 times a year..We been their 48 times….

  45. Cindy says:

    Look me up on face book Cindy Leonard

  46. Julie says:

    OMG Kendra! This is where my honey moon was.. I loved it. they had all kinds of fun things to do.. They had the newlywed game, the contest where you put the balloon between you and your honey and try not to pop it! and no matter where you were, somebody was taking your picture and you could buy them at Breakfast!!!

    I got married in 1981., did you drive in the love machine bus.?? hahaha.. glad you had fun.

  47. Jacey says:

    OMG! My husband and I also went to this place. It is EXACTLY as you describe it. My husband and I went there to meet for a romantic weekend. I got there first and waited for him to arrive (we were coming in from separate locations).

    Anyway – I had to go to dinner the first night without him. Let me tell you, all the couples at my dinner table were looking at me like I was there for some threesome action. TOO FUNNY!

    We had a round bed also. How about all the little twinkle lights in the ceiling above the bed? Did you have those?

    Thanks for the fun memories. You will be getting junk mail from Cove Haven now. We went in 2007 and I’m still getting brochures enticing me to come back. ha ha!

  48. Jacey says:

    PS. We also met lots of people who go there several times a year. CRAZY!

  49. MiEsha says:

    My boyfriend and I went to Cove Haven 2 years ago and we had so much fun. It was probably the best vacation we took together too because it was pretty much empty. We played all these games and did most of the activities. We stayed in the room with a pool a sauna and heart shaped jacuzzi. It had no windows which freaked us ou at first, but you don’t even notice them after awhile. Had a great time and glad to see that did too

  50. Kaylee says:

    I went as well- I can’t beleive all this people liked it! We went here for a honeymoon and I thought it was down right creepy! You had to eat dinner with 3 other couples. Awkward! And it wasn’t updated and the drinks were super expensive. We even hightailed out there a day early to get out of there.

  51. alyssa says:

    fuck you bitch

  52. alyssa says:

    sarah u need to stop talking shit about the new girls next door there probaly prettier than you

  53. MMA says:

    Alyssa,

    This is not the place for such unkinds. If you don’t like what someone posted, simply ignore it and move on.

    Take care!

  54. Christina says:

    Hey Kendra! I just found your website and I think it’s great how you keep ALLLL of your fan updated! I just wanted to say congrats to you and Hank on your upcomming son; he is going to be soooo handsome (: & also that you look absolutley gorgeous while prego (like always!) I was sooooooo upset when my boyfriend told me Hank was released from the Eagles, their loss! But anways good luck with the baby, only a couple more months girl! Stay healthy and happy and stay as genuine as you seem to be now. Hope there is going to be Kendra season 2!

  55. aga says:

    Hey Kendra ! Thanks for sharing it. it so beautiful place.We love You. :)

  56. Kim says:

    HAHA, my parents went there on their honeymoon in 1977….we always laugh at the pics and how cheesy the place was. Funny it hasn’t changed in 32 years!

  57. Tina says:

    Hey Kendra -

    My hubby & I honeymooned @ Caesars Paradise Stream in 1983 & have stayed there & @ Pocono Palace many times since. In fact, we are long-time members of their “Forever Lovers” program. We love it! They don’t call the Apple “the cave” for nothing as you & Hank found out, lol!
    Two of our faves are the Champagne Towers & the Fantasy Apple. Never been to Cove Haven.

    All the best & much love to you, Hank & your precious angel! :)

  58. marty says:

  60. Paul says:

    This is where me & my 1st wife had our honeymoon back in 1987..It was pretty fun…!! we had “hoagies” one day for lunch…we just call ‘em “subs” up here in Boston…LOL

  61. thật hạnh phúc.Tuần trăng mật thật tuyện vời và đầy ý nghĩa.Chúc bạn hạnh phúc.

  62. Profran says:

    Let me tell you something girl…….you haven’t been anywhere!! All of upstate NY & PA is like back in the 60’s!!!!
    We stayed in a Motel in PA that hasn’t been updated since the 60’s with the brown paneling & the pink tiles in the bathroom!!
    The “NO SMOKING” sign was on the door, but when you walked in it reeked of of old NICOTINE!!!!!!!!! UGH!!!!!!!!!!
    The owner was about 95 & she had a breathing problem….
    They said at the local shops that she is supposed to like in the house (mansion) on top of the hill (mountain), but she can’t run up at down it any more when someone needs her at the motel, so she sleeps behind the partition that is behind the desk. UGH!!!
    Can’t wait until you have the baby & then hopefully the show will be up & running!!!! Good Luck!!!

  63. Cyndi says:

    Hey my husband I and went to the Poconos a few years ago! I think we even had the same room. Loved that place. Take Care

  64. Andrea says:

    I just wanted to say that I watched the new girls next door, and it just isn’t the same without the three of you. You can’t be replaced :( .

    Isn’t that an amazing place. My family has had a cabin on Lake Wallenpaupack for 50 years and each summer we always take our boat for a drive by cove haven on the lake. Wonderful place and glad you enjoyed it!!!

  67. kendra says:

    WHO FUCKIN CARES

  68. MEL says:

    glad you enjoyed it..
    take care

  69. sandie says:

    Kendra,

    So glad to hear the both of you had a great time. I live about five minutes from there and the poconos itself really is such a wonderful place with so many wonderful things to do. I myself travel around due to my busy modeling schedule and appearances that I have to make and find it very rewarding to be able to call the poconos home. If ever you get the chance to come up to the poconos again I would be happy to share some wonderful places to visit. I too understand how it feels to want privacy when you go on vacation so I would be happy to share some of my ideas with you. You can contact me at the e-mail provided if you should want any information or suggestions. Congratulations on your upcoming son!!!
