“We loved staying at Hopskip Home! It was perfect for our family of four and really loved the layout. The kids enjoyed the loft as their bedroom and the kitchen/open concept was warm and inviting. Graham & Krista were easy to communicate with and accommodated our requests and questions. The community is quiet and all of the amenities are easy to get it to. I loved checking out Hopskip Home’s IG page for extra pictures, videos, and tips! We loved the Poconos and will be back again!” -Angela
