Thanks for your interest in our Pocono retreat. This executive custom built home is used frequently by us and we are sharing it with guests that would like to get away from the weekly hustle. Although the home is within 10 minutes from all of the Pocono activities (Camelback, Delaware Water Gap, Shawnee, Mt. Airy Casino, just to name a few) we have found that our guests are more than happy just sitting back and enjoying a week/weekend of peace and tranquility in our home.
You can spend your day reading a book in the all glass 4 season sunroom or relax in the family room and view the custom built 400 gallon Reef aquarium. The aquarium is built in as a peninsula viewable from 4 seperate rooms on the first floor. The first floor of the property includes a full billiards room, family room, kitchen, formal dining room, 3 season outdoor sunroom and a 4 season heated/cooled indoor sunroom, laundry room, and half bath . We had a custom painter come in from NYC to paint a mural in the 4 season sunroom and a rendition of Michael Parkes' painting 'Gargoyles' in the family room. A 50' Bang & Olufsen Plasma screen is mounted above the fireplace for your viewing pleasure and setup with xbox 360 for the family. The entire home has speakers built in to the walls and hooked up for satellite radio or your iPod. Broadband Wifi access is also included with your rental. In the spring and summer our guests head outdoors and grill steaks and burgers to perfection on our Weber grill while listening to their favorite music on the outdoor speakers.
Upstairs guests have the use of 4 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. All of our bedrooms are custom painted and have custom lighting along with a ceiling fan for comfortable overnight sleep.
We take security seriously in our homes. For your safety all doors and windows are setup with sensors, along with motion sensors throughout.
Included in your rental is access to an indoor covered olympic size heated pool at the local Howard Johnson. In addition all renters receive 10% off lunch/dinner or bar bill at the Serengetti Bar & Bistro in the Howard Johnson. The HoJo is a 5 minute drive from the house.
Please feel free to contact us with any questions and seasonal discount offerings.

                        Thank you very much for offering such a great house for rentals! It is a gem of Pocanos :) Both our families have had a great time. The house was very clean and the housekeeper Lori was very helpful. The owner is very attentive to travelers needs. Very happy with our stay!

                        We stayed there with my family and a couple other families for the NYE break. All of us have small children ranging from 2-5. It was a great well-maintained space with lots of modern furnishings. Ideally the space would be perfect with lots of adult guests for a summer time bbq, as there is a large backyard and deck and you also have the ability to pipe music into the yard. But our situation was different with small children, but even so there were still lots of areas for the kids to explore with smaller rooms and multiple staircases from them to play on. Most of the ground floor were not carpeted, but the kids were fine once we put socks on them. They loved the fishtank. Kitchen facilities were nice. Everyone is correct about the AV system, but once you understand the logic behind how it is set up, it is pretty easy. Distancewise it is a bit secluded from everything, with about a 15 min drive to town, but I guess that's why you are renting this house in the first place, right? It's about 15 min from Alpine mountain, a mainly family ski resort and 25 min from both Shawnee and Camelback. The owners were very friendly and accommodating to us as well. Overall, everyone was very happy with the house, and would stay again. We had a great time!

                        Recommended for: Age 55+, pet owners, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway.

                        Owner response: Our pleasure having great guests visit! Glad you enjoyed your stay and look forward to seeing you again soon.

                        Thank you, Ongelique for making your home into a vacation rental. Everything about this home made me feel at home, it was simply exquisite; especially the beautiful paintings and the fish tank. We were originally a group of 9, which changed to 11, but we were all very comfortable. Some little flaws I did have were no ceiling light in the room I slept in, the sink kept clogging and the shower barely had warm water of the single bathroom, and the shower head was broken in the main bedroom. Although this was not any major issue, the amazing house made up for all of this :-) The dining room was awesome and there was plenty of dishes and eating utensils that came in very handy. Also, we had a bit of difficulty with the TV, but eventually figured it out. Overall, we had a great time and thinking of making this a once a year trip preferably at this rental. Thanx again! :-)

                        Owner response: Elizabeth Glad you enjoyed your stay. Very sorry you had issues with the light in the bedroom and issues with the shower head. We will definitely have this resolved asap so all of our future guests don't encounter any problems. All issues have been resolved. Thanks again for letting us know. Thanks again for visiting our home. Ongelique

                        Thank you, Ongelique for making your home available as a vacation rental, and an extremely nice rental at that!! You never know just how clean a home will be when you rent it online, but this one was excellent. This home is not your average vacation rental with its tile and hardwood floors, nice furniture, and comfortable beds. My family of 6 enjoyed playing pool, watching the flat screen tv, and were mesmerized by the fish in the saltwater aquarium. We didn't spend much time in the rental, but if we had chosen to cook, there were plenty of dishes, silverware, glasses, a very large refrigerator, as well as, spices to use. I think possibly for those who might be technologically challenged, they might have difficulty figuring out the tv/sound system, but not for my family! Thanks again for the pleasant Poconos experience.

                        We had a good stay. Plenty of sleeping space, clean and met expectations. Getting the TV to work took some effort, but all-in-all, I'd stay here again. Big positive was the outdoor space. Nice size sunroom, large covered deck, larg outdoor deck with grill and then a big yard. No shortage of space.

They were available to answer every question I had(which were quite a few) :). The only 2 flaws were that we weren't able to watch any DVD movies because it was too difficult to figure out. And the water was constantly coming cold :(....BUT, overall I would definitely come here again, The good weighed out the bad :)

                        Had a few friends out for the weekend and we couldn't ask for anything better. The property and the home are beautiful, comfortable, and built for the perfect weekend escape. We had a great time just lounging around the house and the yard.... the property is relatively secluded and was exactly what we were looking for. Owner was very accomodating and responsive to all questions and queries before and during our stay. Absolutely a worthwhile vacation rental!

                        we had a group of guys up there for a golf weekend. Owner was awesome, very concerned about our comfort, happiness with it and responsive to a few initial questions we had about the property. The bedrooms were well kept and backyard very nice/fenced in. Great overall experience, would go back anytime
