Ski Weekend

The house was a nice place for our little family with my only concern being the place smelled like whatever was being cooked in the house below us at dinner time. Otherwise it was comfortable and clean and a relaxing stay after skiing at Elk Mountain.

Great Weekend Stay

My husband and I really enjoyed staying here for the week. The place is so close to many great attractions in PA. We loved spending the mornings and evenings out on the deck overlooking the water and afternoons kayaking in the lake. Great location and lovely home.

This was the perfect launch spot for all our explorations of the Pocono mountains and surrounding towns and at night - nothing can beat the lake view from the deck as the sun goes down.

About the host

Hosted by Jonathan Walko

Host profile image
Jon and Beth have been together for 15 years, were married in 2011 and love the Lake Life they have created together. They travel as often as possible but in all the many places they have visited around the world, Elk Lake remains their favorite.

Beth grew up coming to Elk Lake visiting her grandparents, many cousins and friends. Once she brought Jon to visit too he instantly fell in love with this welcoming, quaint, beautiful, private spot to enjoy all four seasons.

They try to make their guests as comfortable as possible with all the amenities to feel like home. They are quick to respond, have many places they love to recommend to their guests that they enjoy visiting as well and really appreciate any feedback people give them to improve their current and future stays.

When they named the Star view unit it was special to them because of the many beautiful stars that light up the sky, full/half/eclipse moons, and every once in a while even a shooting star (sometimes too many to count)! One night Beth and Jon didn't have renters yet and were on the private deck looking at the beauty of the sky and thought to themselves what better name for this special and private unit than the Star view suite!

Beth and Jon are down to earth, positive and grateful people that appreciate all the many adventures they have had and continue to have. They are so happy they get to share this amazing Lake with people near and far!

Why they chose this property

We have been coming here with our family and friends for many years, we hold Elk lake as a special place in our hearts with endless memories to count.

What makes this property unique

Private lake, deck, dock as well as kayaks, a canoe, outdoor and indoor activities provided! Also a short stroll to a Tavern with food, drink, good company and music!
