We had a fantastic week. The home is well equipped. The property has great trails - and the trail map was really awesome. We enjoyed the fireplace, the comfy furnishings, and the game room.
The house was great. It was spacious, well-maintained, comfortable and well-appointed. We had a great time and the space was perfect for us to all gather and have fun together. I would certainly recommend this location and owner to other families!
This was our 2nd time coming to celebrate Sukkot with our friends and family at this place. It is perfect for everything we needed and the property is beautifully kept. We never got tired of waking up to the amazing views! The owners have been so gracious to us. We'll always have good memories about visiting this place.
We were very happy with our weekend vacation at this house, Mark was very prompt and easy to communicate with. We enjoyed the many trails on the property. The kids enjoyed the basketball court and game room. Kitchen was well stocked. We enjoyed the patio with the firepit
One of the best vacation homes we had stayed in a long time. It has everything a family needs and is within short driving distance of many attractions. The host was very prompt in responding to our questions. We are already planning to come back next year.
Great property to explore. We went on a hike almost every day and could take a different path every time. The porch overlooking the mountain was an awesome place to have morning coffee. Great memories a very responsive host makes for a great value.
This house was beautiful inside and out. The views were amazing. The house was spotless. I went up for my bachelor party and everyone had an amazing time. I would recommend this house 100%. I will be going back in the fall. And I will tell others about this house as well. A huge thank you to the owner for providing us with everything.
This place was beautiful and lots to do. Great place for a family or group of friends. Owner was very good and responsive. Would definitely book here again. Great location as well
Had an awesome time at this awesome property! I have been here before and absolutely love it! The property is clean and well stocked with everything you can imagine and then some!
Such a great property and host! We especially loved hiking around the property and to the picnic area. The house has everything you might need, and lots of fun things for all ages (teens to toddlers). The huge deck and fire pit were a hit with everyone. The location was convenient and close to lots of activities. We ended up needing to go to the urgent care in Palmerton (always an adventure traveling with small children), and I can vouch for the care there as well!
We couldn’t have asked for a better property to accokodate the 3 generations staying for a long weekend. Whether is was greeting sone much needed rest reading a good book on the deck or patio, the teenagers and young adults enjoying outdoor motorized sports, or coupes enjoying the acres of trails, everyone enjoyed themselves. The house was cozy and comfortable for the group and the kitchen was well stocked with basic needs. Great property and we could not have chosen a better home for our needs
We loved the house and land for the pups. It was a great place to spend our weeks vacation. Close to all the things we love to do but a quiet place to relax.
Our family of 7 plus our 2 dog babies had a wonderful time at this beautiful home. Our Golden retriever Maggie Mae especially loved the property. She has been sad since we left. House is adorable & nicely furnished. We cooked 3 meals & had everything we needed. Loved the new gas grill. Deck was great for star gazing at night. We hiked the property several times & hung out at picnic area. This house was one of our favorite & the town is so cute! We will definitely be back!
We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this property. The house was great and provided everything we could need. The property around the house was fantastic, we enjoyed walking the trails and hiking up the ridge. Palmerton was a few minutes away and had several places to get food, including Claude's Creamery for some great ice cream. The NE Turnpike extension access is close by in Lehighton as well for going North or South. We were able to easily get to many places from here, such as Hershey Park, Baltimore Aquarium, shopping on Macarthur Rd in Allentown, and the outlets in Tannersville. Overall it was near our family in the area, was close enough to all of the attractions we wanted to get to and then some, and was a very quiet and relaxing property to wind down in at the end of a busy day. We couldn't have asked for better, thank you!

Why they chose this property
I grew-up in the Philadelphia area and always loved the mountains. I got started skiing in high school and I got hooked. I wanted a house by a ski area for my kids and I was fortunate enough to be able to afford a second home right by Blue Mountain. This kids are older, scattered about and we've now opened the house up to renters.
What makes this property unique
The setting is private. Just a few minutes to the Valley Lodge of Blue Mountain Ski Resort, close to the Appalachian Trail, Lehigh River and Beltzville State Park. We're close to the Poconos, but not so close that you feel like you're in a tourist trap. Palmerton is a nice town, if you want touristy things, go to nearby Jim Thorpe. River outfitters along the Lehigh River Gap provide great day trips and we have 4 kayaks available to guests who want to DIY on the river.
