Perfect ski weekend getaway!

We had a wonderful time at the Robins nest retreat! Our hosts were extremely attentive and helpful during the massive snow storm and the house had everything we needed for a weekend away! The house was perfectly situated between restaurants and Shawnee mountain. And there’s nothing better than enjoying a relaxing, scenic hot tub session after a day of skiing! We will definitely be back!

Heaven!

If peace & quiet, (except for the sound of nature and a babbling stream, all while enjoying a relaxing dip in a hot tub) sounds enticing, then this is your next destination! This home is clean, cozy, and relaxing. The host, Valarie, is so sweet and very organized with directions and protocols/procedures for use of the house. You will LOVE your stay here!

Comfortable, roomy house in a beautiful setting. The home is very convenient to many attractions and activities. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and watching the stream and wildlife. The bed is very comfortable and the house is nice and clean.

Perfect for a weekend away with pups

The house has everything we wanted for a weekend getaway. Everything inside is clean, well-stocked and as described. Roku TV's make it easy to watch what you want. The real star of the show is the covered back deck with hot tub, grill, and propane fire pit. It was perfect and spacious for a few chilly nights. The back yard down to the creek is perfect for letting well disciplined dogs roam and explore. Excellent bird and animal watching there as well. Overall we could not ask for more and would stay here again.

Bushkill Trip

We loved the area and the beautiful outdoor setting. The house was clean, but not pristine like other VRBO locations we have stayed at. We had issues with hot water when taking showers. We had to move really quick before the water became cold. We spent a lot of time in the hot tub which was so nice, but setting 2 was not working. The overall maintenance of the house was lacking, but it didn't stop us from still having a good time.

Great private stay

My husband and I stayed here with our 2 month old son and our Bernese Mountain dog. Such a beautiful property along the creek and the house was perfect for our needs. A major bonus for us was seeing wildlife while at the house: raccoon, fox, dear, and black squirrels! Location was perfect to visit the falls nearby and having access to the community center with an outdoor pool was really nice. Valarie was easy to get ahold of and quick to respond Definitely would recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet, private stay ina convenient location.

Can't wait to come back!

This property was everything I needed for a secluded getaway. The house was clean and stocked with everything you need to cook, serve food, and stay warm on an unexpectedly chilly night. I took my 80-year old dad for a long weekend and he was sad to leave. Far enough from the road and neighbors that there is privacy and I felt safe letting my dog roam unleashed. Super happy this is a dog friendly host. Would love to come back again for a romantic getaway... perfect to enjoy the fire pit, hot tub, cozy couch and master bedroom suite. Nicer and better equipped than a cabin, but still has a rustic and cozy feel. The tremendous trees and stream on the property are really beautiful. Highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Valarie Petrycki

Host profile image
I have been the owner and creator of “Bushkill Waterfront Rentals” since 2007. It has been my greatest passion and I think that is why people continue to come back to stay!

Why they chose this property

We decided to buy the house next door when it became available since we have fallen in love with Tom's creek, which runs right in the backyard!

What makes this property unique

It is a quiet, secluded house in a amenity filled, private lake community. I am told that the pictures don't do it justice... The outdoor space is lovely with stringed lights for an enchanting evening soak in the hot tub or a relaxing time around the gas fireplace table.
