About this property

Cottage in the sky in the heart of the Poconos

Whether you are craving an escape from the city and reconnecting with nature or a great place to explore all the Poconos has to offer, you'll find it here at the Chalet in the Sky. The relaxing starts when you turn your car into the drive way. This 600 Square mile view from every room in the house including a wrap around porch is a wonderful gathering place for friends and family! Only two hours from NYC and Philadelphia. The Chalet offers a great escape from the stresses of city life!

Chalet in the Sky is located right in the middle of the Poconos! Wineries and breweries are within a 20 minute drive. Historic Jim Thorpe is a short drive and Beltsville Lake State Park is a 20 minute drive. The lake is 7 miles long and is a hub for boating, fishing and many hiking trails nearby. The Delaware Water Gap is also located within a 30 minute drive and offers beautiful hikes and views along the Delaware River.

Chalet 1st floor- kitchen, family room, wood burning stove, large bathroom with a double sink, shower, and stand alone bathtub, with an electric fireplace on the wall controlled with a remote. Bedroom with King Size Bed.

Chalet 2nd floor - Master Bedroom with view of hills and valley, full size bed. Art table and chair with paints and color pencils

Deer and wildlife often stop and craze through the backyard during your stay. Many different birds visit the tree tops! There are many antique shops and farm stands located nearby. If you love the out doors, the house is also located near the Lehigh Gorge state Park which is home to the Lehigh River. In the Spring, Summer and Fall, go rafting on a Dam Release weekend! Gorgeous fall foliage! The Lehigh River is also stocked with rainbow trout each season. The home is located within a few minutes of the Pohopoco Creek witch is a beautiful tributary to the Lehigh river and also stocked with trout each season!

The chalet is a perfect place to relax and forget about the stresses of everyday life. I have lived in NYC for the last 15 years and when I purchased the house I found it hard to return after long weekends at my home. Now I want to share that experience with others. When you rent the house it’s entirely yours! However if you need anything I am a phone call away! Enjoy!

Host lives below the chalet, in separate entrance, and has no access to the chalet, or any of the photos listing in the listing. If you need him, he is happy to help!

PURE RELAXATION
The Chalet is nestled in a perfect location!! U feel like ur in the middle of nowhere, but only 10 mins from 3 restaurants, Chinese, Spanish or a pizzeria or just 15 mins if u prefer to go to an enormous Shoprite!! The Chalet is clean and comfy!! Jonathan the owner was very responsive ... i can't wait to visit again during the Fall and Winter!! Its definitely a Romantic Getaway spot!!
