About Nuangola

Nuangola is a quiet Luzerne County community wrapped right around a natural, heart-shaped lake. Originally developed as a summer getaway in the early 1900s, the borough has kept that peaceful lakeside charm as it evolved into a year-round neighborhood. Everyday life here centers on the water, with winding roads, classic cottages, and modern homes tucked among the trees along the shore.

The community also has a rich local culture, highlighted by the historic Grove Theatre, which has hosted summer-stock productions for generations. Families are served by the Crestwood School District, and with Interstate 81 only minutes away, commutes to Wilkes-Barre or Hazleton are quick and convenient. It offers a relaxed, scenic retreat where neighbors easily connect by the water while staying close to everyday regional amenities.
