About this property

Big Boulder Townhome- Updates, Summer is around the corner!

Welcome to the Blue Heron community at Big Boulder Lake! Our getaway is a three bedroom, two bathroom townhouse with many recent updates and upgrades as new owners in summer 2021. We have replaced all furniture, electronics and kitchen items.

In the summer months, enjoy a short 2 minute walk along Blue Heron's maintained walking paths to the community pool and beach areas, or rent a kayak or pontoon boat. Our rental includes 4 passes to the Boulder Lake Club, extra passes can be purchased daily.

Another few steps and you can enjoy the local staple, Boulder View Tavern, with indoor and lakeside seating and live music on the weekends. If indoor waterparks are up your alley, enjoy Kalahari-- within 25 minute drive!

Enjoy a cozy, updated home with a cabin feel but with recent upgrades to make you feel right at home. Perfect for families and couples that want to enjoy outdoor activities or just a quiet getaway in the Poconos. We comfortably sleep 6: a master bedroom with a king bed, a bunk bed with full mattresses upstairs, with an additional king bedroom downstairs. We have several new upgrades : new 4K television, new furniture, mattresses, bedding, dishwasher, silverware and kitchen equipment.

The rear patio offers wooded views and a gas grill, perfect for quiet coffee in the mornings, or easy meal prep in the evenings. Our kitchen is well equipped and has all you need for your stay-- a dual oven, a brand new dishwasher, Keurig coffee maker, baking tins/sheets, mixing bowls, toaster, microwave, blender and tupperware to store your leftovers.

We have 2 bathrooms-- the downstairs bath has a double sink with a tub/shower, while the upstairs bathroom has a single sink vanity and whirlpool tub to soak and relax after the outdoor adventures of the day! The home has hi speed 500mbps WiFi for all of your streaming devices, or your remote working needs. The living room features a new 4K 75" TV with cable plus Netflix, Hulu, Disney+ and Apple TV. The master bedroom also features cable and Netflix, while the downstairs queen features a smart TV with Netflix, Hulu, Disney+ and Amazon Prime Video.

Four mini-split units provide heating and air conditioning (rare at Big Boulder!) year-round. This provides more efficient and effective heating and cooling throughout the entire home and does not rely on electric baseboard heating- but baseboard heating is available in the winter months. The living area and each of the 3 bedrooms have their own thermostats so everyone can set their perfect temperature. During the winter months, complementary firewood is provided for use inside the wood burning fire place at the center of the living area. The downstairs also features full size laundry: washing machine and dryer.

You can do everything in the area-- snowboard, snow shoe, cross country ski, tube, hiking, bird watching, ATV'ing, golf, tennis, boating, fishing, etc.

Amazing trip and great host!!

The home was awesome. The owners were so easy to deal with and everything was easy. I would definitely rent from them again and hope to come back. I highly highly recommend. It was a perfect experience made even better by the owners.

Wonderful getaway

We just returned from our family vacation here and we had a wonderful time! The beach was a very short walk, which gave you the option to go back and forth freely. Andy was very accomodating, and I always received answers quickly. The house is well stocked for all your needs, and I found the kitchen well equipped for our family of 5. Everyone loved our time there and said they would love to return again!! We highly recommend this "cabin" getaway!

Big Boulder- great location for families

My family spent president's day weekend in the Poconos. This property is at the base of Big Boulder with easy access to family friendly skiing and tubing. The kitchen is well equipped so we did a mix of cooking and takeout. We used the wood burning fireplace and enjoyed good variety of board games. Property is close to Kalahari where we stayed one night before checking in. In the future, I will do day passes to Kalahari as the townhouse much more comfortable and spacious.

Amazing property, amazing host!

Fantastic! That is the best word to describe this rental property. The property was newly renovated and had all the amenities you could need. The host was extremely helpful and responsive if we had any questions. I would highly recommend booking this beautiful home. It was very close to the pool and lake which was great, especially if you have kids. The beds were very comfortable and the AC had temperature controls for all the rooms. I would definitely stay here again. 10/10 rating!

Great lake life getaway

We had a great 10-day stay at Andy’s place, with 3 adults, and 3 kids under 4 yo. It’s a quick 5 minute walk to the beach club, with access to beach, pool, tennis court, lakeside restaurant, and more. The house is clean and well-equipped, with nice touches throughout - you can tell they’ve put some thought into what would make a stay comfortable. Andy was very helpful and even provided us with a few things that made our visit even more smooth. Perfect spot to keep toddlers entertained with some rest for adults. We did lots of nature walks to nearby waterfalls (15 min drive) and spent lots of time on the terrace, beach and pool. It would be a great place to return to!

Perfect Pocono Getaway

This was our second time booking this amazing location! This trip we came up to take our kids snow tubing! The location of this rental is so ideal for anyone looking for a winter activity getaway! Location is perfect to get to Camelback, Blue Mountain, Jack Frost and Big Boulder! Lots of great restaurants nearby and not far from anything you may need during the stay. Had a fantastic trip to Blue Ridge Estate Vineyard and Winery and highly recommend visiting! The wine was amazing and fresh made pizzas! Very family friendly and beautiful! Cannot wait to come back and stay again!

The perfect ski getaway

Brought the family for my grandson's 10th bday. The place was beautiful, comfortable and had everything you needed.

Andy was quick to respond to any questions. Highly recommend this rental. Can't wait to plan my next visit!!

Big Boulder Beauty

My family and I booked this town home for a long weekend. The main living room is open concept with a beautiful wood burning fireplace. We spent hours snuggled in comfy blankets while working our way through the board game collection. The kitchen was well stocked for preparing meals, including dishes with younger kids in mind. The bedrooms were very comfortable and provided ample space for our family of six. We were looking to be close to Big Boulder and the location did not disappoint. We were able to easily go between the townhouse and the slopes when needed. The town house was also steps from the lake and pool - we look forward to returning in the summer.

Awesome rental with amazing location!

Our winter ski trip couldn’t have been better at Andy’s townhome! It is beautifully updated, has a well-equipped kitchen, lots of TV’s and great wifi. The linens and bath supplies were provided as well -we were able to just arrive and begin our vacation! The host was super responsive and provided great recommendations for places to eat and activities in the Poconos! Big Boulder is a few minutes away and Jack Frost and Camelback are about a 20-minute drive from the rental -super convenient. We loved being able to walk to Boulder View Tavern for food and drinks too! There are other restaurants nearby that we look forward to exploring on another visit in the Spring. If you are looking in the area for a place to book, book this one! You won’t regret it. We can’t wait to come back!

Perfect Cozy Lakehouse Getaway!

Most amazing Pocono rental ever! Beautifully decorated and cozy vibe throughout. Not a detail left untouched! Was a great house to rent for two families and felt very spacious. Bunk beds worked great for all the kids to stay together. The kitchen was amazing and is very well stocked with supplies to be able to cook all meals! The house was very clean and bedding was so soft and cozy. Instructions sent by owner were super detailed and covered all questions during our stay. Loved being walking distance to Big boulder tavern! Food was amazing and drinks were great too. We enjoyed the short walk to the lake and the beautiful Mountain views. Just enough stores/restaurants around for what you need during the stay. We loved staying at here and will be booking many more times to come. Highly recommend this property!
