About this property
New Elk Mtn Listing: Cozy family ski house -- 2 min from Elk!
Enjoy our beautiful 3-bedroom, 2-bath house nestled in the hills below Elk Mountain! The spacious, family-friendly (and pet-friendly) home is a quick 2-minute drive from the ski resort—with views of the slopes from our back windows.
The updated farmhouse features: a large, well-equipped kitchen with a wood-burning fireplace and large dining table; comfy living room with widescreen, smart-TV; cozy family room with games, books and tranquil views of the yard, pond and surrounding hillside. The mudroom offers storage for boots, skis and other outdoor equipment, as well as a washer and dryer for your wet gear. And we have a single-car garage for easy loading/unloading in snowy weather.
The bedrooms include: extra-large master bedroom on the first floor with king bed and ensuite bath; front bedroom (second floor) with 1 queen bed and 1 full-size futon; back bedroom (also on second floor) with 1 full-size bed and 1 single bed. The second full bath is located on the first floor, just off the kitchen. Towels and sheets provided for your comfort and convenience.
The 3-acre property is on a small, rural road. Tall pines, oaks and maples shade the house. Out back, the grassy yard circles a large, stream-fed pond that is home to bullfrogs, ducks, fish and the occasional otter. Unwind with family and friends around the campfire.
The Endless Mountain Region in North Eastern Pennsylvania (NEPA) is a great destination for any season. Of course in winter, our home is the perfect base for a family ski trip! The short drive (2 minutes!!) to the mountain, makes for easy return trips for lunch, naps, etc. Elk Mountain Ski Resort offers the best slopes in PA, with exceptional snow-making, excellent ski/board school, and a perfect balance of beginner, intermediate and expert trails. We are also just a few miles from snowmobile and ATV trails.
In spring, summer and fall, hike or bike the trails at Elk Mountain or the expansive network of NEPA rail-trails. Paddle down one of the local creeks, play Frisbee golf at Prompton State Park, go antiquing in the nearby towns of Honesdale or Hawley, or just sit outside and enjoy the peace and quiet. Whatever you choose to do, our house makes a great home base!

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely farmhouse so much. The house is beautifully cared for and the setting is so filled with nature. We look forward to our next stay!
We enjoyed our stay. The house is very close to Elk for skiing. It is clean, well stocked and very comfortable. The garage fit our midsize SUV perfectly.
The house was great and exceptionally convenient to the mountain! Every last detail of the house and amenities were so well thought out. We’ll be back for sure.
Everyone had a great visit. Host was responsive and worked with me to stay an extra day. The house is very cozy and is a good location. Thank you. Teri
Everything was great but would have liked curtains or shades on the windows.

We appreciate your feedback and will take that into consideration. Just to clarify for future guests, we do have curtains for all bedroom windows and frosted glass on the shoulder-height bathroom windows. The kitchen and family room windows do not have curtains.
The place is great and you can’t get much closer to Elk. The house was plenty of room for a family of four to hang out together but also get some space. The hosts were super responsive to questions and the house had pretty much everything you need.
Absolutely perfect home. Perfect size and location.
The location to the ski trails is perfect. The house was clean and rooms comfortable . Owner was great to work with. Definitely a place we would like to stay every year
We loved our stay here! The house is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. It had all of the supplies we need to enjoy our stay. The kids loved fishing in the pond. The views are beautiful and the area is nice and quiet.
OMG Ms. Eva house was awesome! My family enjoyed the fishing, area and overall peace. They caught many large bass and I caught a bluegill. We will def return in the future without hesitation.
