About Prompton

Prompton is a small, quiet borough tucked into the rolling hills of Wayne County along the Lackawaxen River. Life here largely revolves around the outdoors and Prompton Lake, a scenic reservoir framed by wooded hillsides, open pastures, and a handful of rural homes. It offers a peaceful country setting just a short drive west of Honesdale, giving residents plenty of space and privacy while keeping everyday shopping, dining, and schools within easy reach.

Having Prompton State Park right in town is a major draw for outdoor lovers. The lake and surrounding parkland offer year-round recreation, from kayaking, paddleboarding, and fishing to mountain biking, hiking, and disc golf. With its welcoming small-town atmosphere, deep community roots, and convenient access to Route 6, Prompton is a great fit for anyone looking to settle down in a relaxed, scenic corner of northeastern Pennsylvania.
