Location: Locust Lakes Village, Poconos, Northeastern Mountains, Pennsylvania, USA (1/2 block walk to swim or fish & 10 minutes to ski or golf)

Accommodations:  Chalet, 4 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 3.5 Baths (Sleeps 8-10)

Pamper yourself with Bed and Breakfast comforts in our spacious 2900 square foot nature retreat which boasts three fireplaces; one in a dining/relaxing sunroom, the second in a warm family room and the third in a fun recreation room with pool table. These rooms are loaded with picturesque windows, cathedral ceilings, sky lights and contain cable TVs, VCR/DVDs and CD players.

Perfect for two to three families, the four stylish bedrooms, contain luxury sheets, down comforters, terry cloth robes, cable TV and three and a half bathrooms. There are two additional sofa beds available.

With all the comforts of home and then some, the three exterior decks surround the four season chalet providing gas grill dining, a place to commune with nature and friends, or a hammock for solitude. The frequent "deer" visitors make outside dining a real treat! The adjacent 21,000 acre state game lands of Brady Lake also contribute to your serenity and peace.

In the winter, the greatest decision you'll have to make will be whether to drive around the lake to the community ski slope or skating lake or partake in the 10 minute drive to Big Boulder, Jack Frost, Camelback or Split Rock (with year round recreational activities). Discounted ski vouchers are also available for Jack Frost and Big Boulder Ski Resorts. Opening this fall is a new 52,000 square foot indoor water park.

Enjoy a leisurely 1/2 block walk to the swimming/fishing of Locust Lake, rated "Best in the Country Trout Fishing" by Pennsylvania Game and Fish. This is only one of the five beautiful lakes within the community. Enjoy fishing on the serene banks of the lake or sunbathe on its sand beach. Babysitting services are also available if parents would like an evening out alone. Interior smoking is not allowed.

We pride ourselves on never having an unhappy customer. (See Comments)...

  • Wow, That was the first thing I said upon entering your beautiful home. Lisa and Rich, I am so glad my sister find you and your home. I couldn't have asked for a nicer place for my family and I to spend my 40th birthday weekend. It was so warm and cozy (every room) and you supply us with lots of fun and games and suggestions and you leave us with nothing to worry about, you thought of everything. My family and I all loved it and I am sure you will be hearing from some of them but for me personally, the extra step you took to make sure I had a birthday banner and lots of noise makers for when my big 40 arrived was very, very thoughtful. I shall recommend and absolutely return to your lovely home. Thank you again so, so much!

  • Lisa and Rich: You should be very proud of yourselves!! Your home is absolutely beautiful and, I do believe, you thought of everything to make your guests' stay an easy, carefree one!! Thank you so very much. We had a wonderful time. I also wanted to mention to you that we took your recommendation and went to the brunch at the Blakeslee Inn and Restaurant. We all loved it. You really are terrific and I appreciate all of the personal attention you have shown us. I am sure I will be talking with you in the future!!

  • Dear Lisa, A little hesitation renting on line and site unseen but from the moment I opened your door I was pleasantly surprised and relieved. Your home was everything and more than I anticipated..You and rich really do put so much into this home to make anyone feel right at home without the stress..The pictures do not do the home justice as you already know..The house is enormeous inside and room for many..The three seperate living rooms with fireplaces are a treasure..Of course i wish i had the secluded masterbedroom over the rec room..Pool table was great,level and plenty of room to play.. I think the most exciting part for my kids was feeding those deer by hand right off the deck..Thanks for all you both do to make this home everyone else's..Hope to return as soon as we can!!!

  • Dear Lisa and Rich, Thank you very much for making our New Year’s weekend so special. Your wonderful house was perfect for a group of friends looking to get away from busy life to feel so relaxed, welcomed and well taken care of at this lovely house. It exceeded our expectations in many ways. Thank you very much for letting us stay here! And a special “thank you” for arranging fresh snow the night before the New Year’s Eve. It was so beautiful outside and so cozy inside. We loved it! Isaak & Elvira

  • Everything was perfect. The layout of the house was spot on, it was clean and confortable. We could not ask for a better home to enjoy our Thanksgiving. Great hikes and scenery in the area. The kids loved the park and the lake. Weekend was perfect, looking forward to returning. Thanks so much!

  • I can't even begin to describe what a wonderful time we had in this beautiful home. I thought the Poconos would be fun, relaxing, but maybe a little boring - boy was i wrong!!! We spent 10 gorgeous days in the house and loved every second of it. Even on rainy days, there were plenty of things to do in the house. Between the cable tv's, pool table, air hockey, games, video games, and Karaoke, we were never bored. Our 2 dogs had a blast too. They got to see deer for the first time (even if the deer didn't want to be friends, i think they liked it), and had more than enough room to get away from one another. The beach and lake were beutiful, and I highly recommend trying the white water rafting! I can't say enough good things about the house and surrounding area, but Lisa definitely has another family to add to her annual renters list. This place is PERFECT for families of all sizes and Lisa and her family are a true pleasure to work with. If you would like more info, please feel free to e-mail me.

  • Lisa, Just wanted to say that we really had a great time at your home. You thought of everything and we are so grateful. My husband, Andrew, is a general manager of a hotel, and so, as you can imagine, we are very fortunate and accustomed to top-notch accomodations. You provided a fine sense of hospitality. We loved the community and so did the kids. We had four adults and four children under 5 and managed to find room to escape - needed at times. The lake is warm and gorgeous. Activities were plentiful and we managed to do a lot - two favorites were the Poconos 500/NASCAR race and Wayne County Fair. Attaching pics of the kids on your swing, at the fire, and feeding the deer. They really enjoyed the swingset too (under separate email). We also had a campfire and roasted marshmallows. Sincerely, Amanda/Andrew/Parker/Hannah Neil/Dawn/Josh/Sam (UK contingent)
