A major resort in the Poconos is getting a new owner and an upgrade.

Developer Jim Ertle announced he is buying Fernwood Hotel and Convention Center in Bushkill and plans to make major improvements to the facility.

Current owners, The Bushkill Group, will keep the villas, golf course and snow tubing areas.

Ertle says his management team will make improvements at the hotel that will include adding a Big Daddy's Family BBQ, a New York Bagel and Deli and Bleachers Sports Bar and Grill.

Upgrades are planned to the banquet hall and the GameZone arcade.

He has scheduled a press conference Friday to discuss more details.
