This vrbo home was very clean and well taken care of. It was very comfortable with plenty of room for family and friends BBQ's. When the bbq tank went low after we used it a couple of times the host brought a new one immediately. I have only good things to say about this vrbo, and we were there for nearly a month. The host Ash made everything easy from beginning to end. Everything was in proper working order, The community is also beautiful, with an easy to go to lake and restaurant right there. The community is also very family friendly. I have nothing but good things to say about the property, the area, the host. Perfect stay

The house was neat, clean and organized. Perfect for a group of 8-10. Game room was a little smaller than advertised and the kids didn't use it as much. The property didn't have the grass cut and weeds were overgrown. Other than that, our family did have a great time. There was plenty of propane for the outdoor grill and fire pit, the house and beds and towels were all very clean. Quiet street set back in Towamensing trails where the kids could play outside without any worries. Communicating with the host throughout the trip was quick, efficient, and seamless.

Poconos getaway

My family & I stayed here for a long weekend. The house was beautiful! It was very easy to get to, and there were good places to go hiking/nature walking nearby, which is what we were there for. The area was a little lacking in food options - seems like it was just a bunch of pizza places - but the house was lovely. It was easy getting in touch with the property manager, too. Would definitely recommend this home!

About the host

Hosted by Ash

Host profile image
Hi, I'm Ash. Our Pocono Mountains chalet is family-owned, and we've put a lot of care into designing it for families, groups, and pet-friendly travelers looking for a real getaway.

I respond to messages quickly and are always available during your stay. Whether you're planning a family reunion, a couples retreat, or a weekend away with friends, we'd love to host you.

Why they chose this property

The Poconos has been one of our favorite weekend escapes for years — close enough to the city to be easy, but quiet enough to actually unplug. When we found this spot in Towamensing Trails, it had everything we'd been looking for: tall pines, a real sense of seclusion, and a tight-knit community with lake and pool access just minutes away. It felt like the kind of place we'd keep coming back to — so we made it ours, and now we share it with guests who want the same kind of escape.

What makes this property unique

It's the combination that makes it special. Most Poconos chalets have one standout amenity — a hot tub, maybe a fireplace. Ours has a hot tub, a real cedar barrel sauna, and a separate heated game room with a foosball table, arcade machine, and TV. Add a propane fire table on the deck, EV charging, and a pet-friendly policy, and you have a place that genuinely works for everyone in the group — from kids to grandparents to the dog.
