About this property

Pocono Cabin in Masthope Mountain Community

Come relax in our 2 bedroom/1 bath cabin in the Poconos! Situated in lovely Masthope Mountain Community and nestled in the quiet woods, this home has been completely redone with new floors, new kitchen, fresh paint, and updated bathroom. The one level floor plan makes it easy to vacation with your kids, your parents, or your friends! Featuring 2 bedrooms, our home can sleep up to 6 people. Bedroom 1 has a queen bed. Bedroom 2 has a queen and a twin bed and there is a futon in the living room.

The kitchen is fully stocked with dishes, pots and pans, silverware and utensils, and a Kuerig coffee maker. Outside is a gas fueled BBQ grill and a firepit for making s'mores!

The community has 4 seasons of fun. In the summer, there are two outdoor pools at the mountain summit where there is also a Tiki bar, restaurant/pub, playground, and mini golf. At Westcolang Lake there is a beach with a swimming area with Lifeguard, diving docks, fishing dock, volleyball court, playground, snack bar and bocce.

In the winter, Masthope is home to Ski Big Bear with skiing, snow boarding, (including lessons and rentals) and tubing as well as cross country skiing - renters get a discount on skiing! Get more information on the Masthope . org website.

Convenient cabin located in Masthope Community
This is a neat little cozy spot near the Delaware Water Gap. My friends and I had a great time enjoying the quiet and the beautiful nature that surrounds the house. There is reliable wifi and decent cell service, and there were plenty of people around so we still felt safe. We were not accustomed to certain practices however, so be prepared. In order to access the lake, you need to have amenity badges, which was not clear to us until after we arrived (we booked understanding that amenity badges were not available for the 4th of July weekend). Be prepared to bring all trash and recycling to a singular location at the end (which was nifty, not something I had seen before). Also be prepared to bring your own sheets and towels. Overall it was a comfortable stay that had most of what we needed. We did wish there was more upfront information about what we would have access to before booking, but we had a good time regardless. Also: if traveling in the summer, there is not great AC, so consider fans or other ways to stay cool.

Cozy cabin in the woods
We loved that we could be basically alone in the woods as well as 5 mins away from the pool and 10 from the beach. The boardgames were a hit as was the fire pit. Definitely would recommend!

Cute, but hot and musty
It’s a nice property, nicely redone. Had all the amenities we needed for our stay. Loved the touch of the stock of travel sized toiletries just in case you forgot something. Was also stocked with cleaning supplies and fans, which we appreciated. We traveled with our two small boys, and having the master on the same floor as the boys’ room was so convenient. The fire pit area was great and stocked with wood. As for the negatives… There was a significant musty/animal smell that was apparent even walking up to the house. It set off our allergies and we lived on Claritin during our stay. I’d recommend treating for bugs, because there were a fair amount of flying ants in the living room and master bedroom. Nothing that made us uncomfortable, just a recc. The air conditioning was absolutely not enough to cool the house, and we weren’t even there during a heat wave. We slept with a series of fans trying to get cool air from the AC unit in the kitchen to spread through the house, but it did not work. Beds were terribly uncomfortable and in need or replacement. Our main gripe was that the community access was blacked out for owners only, as we visited the weekend connecting to July 4. We had no access to the pool or lake until the last day of our stay. Definitely recommend verifying with the office before booking if you’re hoping to use those amenities. Overall I’d stay again in the fall when things cool down, and call to ensure renters can access the amenities.

Nice and Cozy
Overall, it was pleasurable. Lack of laundry facilities forced us into town for laundry. Nearest laundry is 35 minutes away. Beds left much to be desired. Amenities were plentiful. Trash compactor hours were not convenient. Very limited hours to take trash. Had to bring trash home with us. Overall very nice for a getaway.

Cute cozy cabin
My family and I had a great stay at masthope. The cabin was very clean and adorable. It was perfect for my family of 5. The location was four mins from the ski mountain. You do have to be careful because the stairs leading up to the front door was slippery when the temp dropped. The host responded very quickly and answered all the questions we had. Would stay here again!

Surprises
Was surprised to learn we needed to check in somewhere other than the house. Was surprised to learn we had to drive our garbage to an offsite location after checkout. Was surprised to learn we had to make our beds before leaving. Was surprised to learn we had enough hot water for only 1 shower. Other than that it was a cute place to stay for skiing!

Lovely little cabin
What a lovely little cabin in the woods. Clean, comfortable, nicely decorated. Gas fireplace to add ambiance. Covered porch for sipping tea in the morning or whisky in the evening. TV was fiddly but we worked it out. The only thing we didn't appreciate was having to bring our own sheets and towels. We have a full bed at home so I had to buy queen sheets for their bed. If I had known that immediately I might not have booked. It should be included in the original posting. Other than that, perfect in every way.

Peaceful easy feeling
The cabin was perfect for some time away alone. Connected with bald eagle energy at Roebling Bridge, visited the Native American festival held at the Big Bear Summit (and got to dance a little), took a ride to the quaint town of Narrowsburg along the NY side of the river, and writing came easily as I sat in front of the fire in the cabin. Everything was clean, comfortable and cozy. Folks at Masthope Community check in were friendly and helpful.

Cozy cabin in lovely mountain community
The place was just big enough for a small group of friends or a couple’s get away. The place is refurbished inside and has all the comforts of home. The beds and futon are not the most comfortable, but they were ok for a few nights. The water pressure in the shower is amazing and the fire pit area seats 5-6 people and had plenty of wood. The community has a nice restaurant and bar for the locals called “The Summit”. Overall a lovely stay and would definitely stay again!

Very nice family getaway. Everyone was very helpful upon arrival. Wish the office was open longer hours for far distance travelers. The cabin was great and the fireplace by itself kept the cabin toasty. The automatic settings for fireplace worked very well. Beautiful and scenic setting.

Cabin
We had a great stay at the cabin in Masthope. One suggestion I would make would be to include in the description of the rental that amenity passes are $7 per person per day for amenity use, such as the pool, lake, etc. Other than that everything was as expected. Thank you!

Summer getaway
This was the ideal spot for a nature getaway. Tons of deer everywhere, so be careful driving! From from the multiple river access points and hiking to the peaceful surroundings it made for a great time. My one point was that due to the extreme heat during our stay, the air conditioner seemed ineffective so it was tough to sleep without extra fans which I went to buy.

Ski weekend away
We took a long weekend away to ski. The house is perfect location to Ski Big Bear. We booked ski tickets ahead of time and did not realize there was a discount because we were renting in Masthope Community. House was perfect size for family of 4. Owners were very responsive and easy check in and out. Make sure to bring room spray, as there was a musty smell throughout the house.

Christmas fam Vacation
Everything went smoothly during check-in. I had a little trouble with the lock box and called Maureen who helped right away. Once inside the place was clean and cozy. She had everything you could think of games, cable, Netflix, Hulu, books and even a Xbox. We had planned ahead and already had these things but it was nice to know the it was there for us. From reading reading reviews on others house I came prepared with Clorox Wipes, Lysol, air freshener, sheets and pillow cases. I’d suggest you do the same (For any house). Maureen did have extra covers ect if needed but we’re funny about that stuff especially with Covid-19’s these days. Over all this was a great place to stay. The neighbors are friendly. It’s walking distance to the ski lodge. We are already talking about coming back next year same time or even during the summer.
