About the host

Hosted by Shashank Agarwal

Host profile image
I’m a host who genuinely enjoys creating memorable stays for guests. I put a lot of thought into designing comfortable, welcoming spaces where families and groups can relax, reconnect, and make great memories together. I love attention to detail, and it’s important to me that every guest feels taken care of from the moment they book until checkout.

What I enjoy most about hosting is hearing how much fun people have had — whether it’s a family gathering, a quiet getaway, or a celebration with friends. My goal is always to provide a home that feels special, comfortable, and thoughtfully prepared so guests can simply enjoy their time in the Poconos.

Why they chose this property

We chose this neighborhood because it offers the perfect balance of peace, privacy, and accessibility — everything we wanted in a true mountain getaway. The home is tucked into a quiet, wooded community in Blakeslee, surrounded by nature, wildlife, tall trees, and fresh air. It feels beautifully secluded, yet it’s close to all the top attractions the Poconos is known for.

What we enjoy most about this neighborhood is the sense of calm it brings. Guests can relax in complete privacy, take walks through the forest, unwind in the hot tub or sauna, stargaze at night, and feel disconnected from the busyness of everyday life. At the same time, we’re just a short drive from hiking trails, lakes, ski resorts, restaurants, and entertainment — making it ideal in every season.

It’s a neighborhood that truly lets you slow down, reconnect, and enjoy the best of the Poconos while still having every convenience within reach.

What makes this property unique

"Stay Painted Bear" is a truly one-of-a-kind luxury retreat in the heart of the Poconos, designed with comfort, creativity, and family fun in mind.
What makes this property stand out is the thoughtful blend of high-end amenities and unique, Instagram-worthy experiences you won’t find in most vacation homes:

Custom murals and artistic touches throughout the home that create a warm, memorable atmosphere

Outdoor wellness experience with a hot tub and cedar sauna

Barista-style espresso setup for coffee lovers

Wood-fired pizza oven & outdoor kitchen, perfect for hosting and creating unforgettable meals

Fully equipped game room with air hockey, shuffleboard, pool, pong table, and neon-lit features for endless fun

Kayaks, paddle boards, and trolleys for warm-weather adventures

Kid-friendly and pet-friendly design including a curated playscape, family board games, and thoughtful touches for all ages

Peaceful wooded surroundings with wildlife sightings and total privacy

Sleeps up to 18 guests comfortably — ideal for family gatherings, celebrations, and group retreats

Our family poured heart and soul into every detail to create a home that feels both luxurious and welcoming. Guests consistently tell us it’s unlike any place they’ve stayed — relaxing, inspiring, and full of surprises around every corner.
