I wish there was a rating higher than 5. The place above and beyond expectations. It was clean cozy and overall just perfect. I stayed with family and we all had the best time. I wish we would’ve stayed for more than one night. Nikki made us feel so welcome in her home. Even our little pup was welcomed with his own little treats. Thank you Nikki for a perfect weekend

Perfect in Poconos

One of the best stays EVER !! The host went above and beyond making sure our stay was great. Left little thoughtful 4th of July gifts for us. We couldn't ask for any better communication ! The cottage was set up PERFECT - from necessity items to a coffee bar in the kitchen ! Most definitely will stay here again and if could give more than 5 stars - most certainly would ! A rental no doubt

About the host

Hosted by Nikki Duran

Host profile image
I am NYC public HS teacher. I love the outdoors, cooking, reading and traveling. I love hosting my home so others can appreciate the beauty that is here. Enjoy the simple things and get a break for the city grind.

Why they chose this property

The home is nestled on a 3.5 acre lot surrounded by tall trees and ample greenery. It is quite and secluded which allows you to enjoy the tranquility of the home and enjoy the beautiful wildlife. Front and back decks along with a propane fire pit make evenings that much sweeter as you roast your s'mores (provided by me).

What makes this property unique

What makes my property unique is the time I dedicate to make each guest that stays very special. Just the little things that I leave for my guest to show my appreciation for choosing this home. A bottle of wine awaits your arrival along with special treats ( depending on the season or holiday). Traveling with little ones? They are not forgotten (as a small arrival gift is left for them as well).
