Need Mini-Vacation help, please!

I want to book a couple nights in the Poconos or Catskills or something....definitely something within driving distance (3-4 hours TOPS.)

Neither one of us has ever gone skiing before, so we'll probably stick to snow mobiling, etc.

2 questions:

a) Where can we go? Anyone have any places to suggest?

and

b) What else is there to do, other than snow mobile?

THANKS!!!
It's a gift for Rich - it'll be the week between Christmas and New Years.

Anyone ever been to Shawnee, PA?

We went to the Ceasars Pocono Resorts a few Novembers ago and had LOTS of fun! There is seriously so much to do - it was great!

my parents just bought a vacation house there.. there is a big flea market on 209 (some junky stuff, but sometimes good finds!), there is tubing near foxwoods, and other ski areas, stroudsburg is a cute little town, and Milford is good too!

a lot of places have snow tubing, which is lots of fun if you're not a skiier.
