About this property

Private Cottage Nestled in the Trees;Pet Friendly-Near Slopes-Waterpks-JimThorpe

Thank you for considering My Vacation Property Rental (MVP Rental) for your upcoming trip to the Poconos. I have owned and been hosting people at homes in this resort community since 2011. Over the years, across multiple properties, I have managed thousands of reservations and have gained the expertise to offer a relaxing retreat for both your group, and pets.

This home was the first property I purchased and was used personally for many years while also renting until relocation to the area ended the need for a second home. The home is located near the edge of the community but is tucked back into thick pines and is well hidden from view. Easy to get to, yet fee ls much more secluded than it is. The third-floor covered deck is without doubt the best spot to take in a snow or rain storm. It's so quiet at night you can hear the snow landing on the pine trees. It's a fantastic location.

The home is tastefully decorated, comfortable for families, and cozy for romantic getaways.

We rented Will’s place for a quick girls getaway. We loved the outdoor upper deck, the large kitchen, and the large livingroom couches! The home is tucked away in the woods, which gave a cozy feel. I’ll definitely be renting this home again!

Great cozy house for a getaway

Clean, large and cozy house wonderful for hosting family or friends. Took my wife's family on a mini getaway and the main focus of the weekend was definitely the fireplace and the kitchen table. It was large enough to host us all. Will definitely be booking again.

Cozy Pocono Cabin!

Perfect for a last minute snowboarding getaway! This cabin was a perfect place to come home and unwind after a long day at the slopes and the Waterpark. The neighborhood was charming and quiet. We slept very well in the beds and the home was clean. As a family of 5, it was so nice that everyone had their own space to relax in. Our host was also accommodating and easy to work with!
