Second year back!

We had a great second year at the house! Lauren is quick to communicate with us during the booking, check in, and stay. The area is great with a lot to do even during the winter months. Highly recommend this to groups of friends and family!

Perfect Getaway!

What a beautiful home away from home! I was excited to write a great review because it was such a great place! Everything was perfectly clean, comfortable, and accommodating! The game room was so perfect and fun for our kids, and the kitchen was fully stacked and made hosting friends so fun. We enjoyed making teas and coffees at the coffee bar and loved relaxing at both fireplaces. We will definitely be back, as the place was perfect!

Good Location

Overall stay was enjoyable. Loved the deer all over. Hoped for snow but we missed it ( nothing owners can do about that. lol) Had nice coffee bar. Lots of things for the pups. Games and pool table were nice. Could use some updates our opinion compared other VRBOs we’ve stayed in the past.

Great stay with some minor comments

Super comfortable and spacious apartment in a great location. The only issue I had was a lack of services (shampoo, toothpaste...) and the place wasn't the cleanest I've ever been to, but by no means dirty/unpleasant. Host was really nice and helpful. Will return in the future.

Beautiful home, peaceful neighborhood.

We really enjoyed our time here. Everything was great and exactly how listed. The check-in process was smooth, easy, and secure. The house was clean and had everything we needed. There was even a dog bed and dog bowls. The lower level and game room area was awesome. Great outdoor spaces too in a really quiet and peaceful neighborhood. We also enjoyed the nearby community. We would definitely stay here again.

We had a great time staying in the Poconos for Father’s Day weekend. The house was great and it was a short walk to the lake. You cannot access the lake from the property, but there’s a nice beach with a playground close by.

Great time!

House was great. Just as advertised. Had a great long weekend. Took advantage of nearby Hickory Run SP and made the 1-hour drive to Knoebels Amusement Park for some wooden coaster rides (highly recommend Knoebels - such a pleasant change from the standard amusement park). Hosts were responsive and helpful. You won’t be disappointed here.

Nice house

Nice & clean house, liked that it had a longe with pool table on the first floor for my adult children to hangout. The only issue I had is that the lake wasn’t accessible from the yard due to wet lands.

Great Cabin Stay with Friends

Had a great overall impression of this booking and stay. Host was very communicative and provided a bunch of detail regarding check in and stay. When we arrived, the place was exactly as it was pictured. We had a couple questions during the stay, but the Host was very quick and helpful to getting us situated. The cabin had everything we needed and made our stay just that much more enjoyable. No one in my party of 5 had any complaints, we had a great time. Surrounding area was nice and quiet, and we were able to enjoy the wooded nature around us.

About the host

Hosted by Jim & Lauren

Host profile image
We are Mick & Mel, two Mississippi mutts rescued by a set of best friends living out our days in the suburbs of Philly. After spending many years visiting the Poconos, our parents, Jim & Lauren and Bill & Briana wanted a place to call their own.

We spent winter of 2022 recreating this inviting space and are excited to share it with you and your family!

Why they chose this property

We are two young families excited to combine our love of travel and hosting into this new adventure. We have put a lot of effort into outfitting the house with amenities that make it easy for families to enjoy time together. We focused on creating a space that we love to visit with our children and hope you do as well.

What makes this property unique

As dog owners and toddler parents, we've make sure to create a space that is safe and welcoming for all. Our home is centrally located in the community, a short walk to the beach, playground, sport courts and community center.
