This home was not only perfect for the whole family but also just what you need for a personal getaway. It's a perfect Pocono cabin with pool, beach, playground, and tennis court access. Our dog was happy to tag along and the gas fire pit and grill made it feel like home. We will definitely be staying at this location again.

Wonderful stay! The home was very well appointed. Just about everything thing that you would need was on hand.The fluffy towels are a nice touch and appreciated. The fireplace was a bit tricky to start, but the host did their best to talk us through the process.Convenient location near Jim Thorpe downtown area and the Mahoning Drive In Movie.We discussed it amongst the group, and we will be back to stay next Spring/Summer.
