WILLOW RUN LODGE an Authentic Timber Frame Cabin on private 35 acres with river

Escape to a authentic Timber frame home, perfect for relaxation and rejuvenation. This handcrafted retreat, nestled in the woods on a large private property, offers tranquility without sacrificing proximity to the Poconos' vibrant attractions and activities. Explore the property's walking paths, expansive field, and scenic river, ideal for fishing enthusiasts. Discover our charming "treehouse" tucked away in the woods, providing a peaceful oasis on the deck or in the cozy treetop room.

Inside, the rustic and eclectic decor beautifully showcases the exposed wood beam structure. With 3 bedrooms, a loft, a spacious great room, a well-equipped kitchen, and a bathroom featuring a handcrafted stone shower, this home harmoniously blends with nature. Unwind by the crackling fireplace on chilly evenings or indulge in long, luxurious showers in the river stone shower. The open floor plan allows for seamless interaction between guests while cooking meals, and the heated polished stone floors ensure warmth throughout, even during the coldest winter nights.

This unique and artistic home captivates with its natural ambiance, seamlessly merging the outdoors with indoor living. Adventure awaits just 5 miles away at ski resorts, and Kalahari, the largest waterpark, is a short 15-minute drive. Explore the numerous scenic state parks for hiking, mountain biking, and water activities like fishing, canoeing, and kayaking. A brief hike from the house leads you to a tranquil river, inviting you to float in its cool and pristine waters. Don't miss the opportunity to unwind at our treehouse, whether lounging in a hammock on the deck or nestling into the treetop house to enjoy a movie, read a book, or simply take a rejuvenating nap.

Nature enthusiasts and those seeking a getaway with family and friends will find solace in our mountain retreat. Primary renter must be min 25 years old.

Woodside cabin

The home was beautiful. We were unaware there were two other rental cabins on the property in close proximity. Just a heads up would have been better. Additionally, the layout was unclear- only one bedroom was downstairs. there is a unique spiral staircase (beautiful) that was challenging for the older adults in the party to navigate, so they had to sleep in downstairs bedroom and on the couch. We had a great time!

Tranquil getaway in pastoral setting

We love Willow Run Lodge! The furnishings are comfortable, rustic and kitschy. The swing and chairs on the front porch are a wonderful way to while away an afternoon. There’s plenty to do in the area and walking the grounds and the path to the river is beautiful. The birdsong in the morning was glorious!Jen is very responsive and easy to deal with. The only issue we had was with the WiFi. I couldn’t connect on my Apple tablet or phone, but my husband was able to on his Android. We were able to stream using the smart TV. We’ll be back!

Little getaway

Nice little secluded cabin in the woods. As it is not a hotel, you should expect to find cobwebs etc inside of the property since it is in the middle of the woods-so, overall cleanliness was what I expected. The only negatives were-The kitchen sink handle needs to be repaired. It is very loosely attached to the countertop and the handle would continuously come off during use. 2. It was absolutely freezing upstairs. The welcome email mentioned ordering firewood on a kiosk in the hallway, but there was no kiosk anywhere. We went down the road to purchase firewood which definitely helped defrost us in the main living area but I would highly recommend bringing a few extra heavy blankets. IT IS EXTREMELY DARK outside, again to be expected in the middle of the woods but also terrifying going outside at night with mounds of bear poop feet away from the front door. I would suggest the owner replace some of the burnt out bulbs and maybe invest in a spotlight for travelers safety. Lastly, the internet. There is WiFi but after trying to figure out what the connection issue was we discovered that the internet cord to the modem is very finicky. The WiFi appears as connected but would have connection issues so often we weren’t able to get anything playing. All in, it was an enjoyable quick get away with family.amenities provided made the stay very comfortable. A little TLC in the spring and this place returns to being a true hidden gem.

Ultimate Pocono Experience

Everything about this house and property rocked! You can tell a lot of love and attention went into creating the vibe in the house. Walking the trails, even in the rain, was an added bonus. Also, it's so close to Jack Frost and even though remote, it's still very close to markets, gas stations, etc. Would book again!

Beautiful Cabin in the Woods

This is the perfect location for a quiet, get-a-way weekend. It sleeps 6 very comfortably, has a well stocked kitchen, and a winding path around the property to explore. There are plenty of options for food in the area if you don’t feel like dealing with groceries.

Wonderful Autumn Getaway

My boyfriend and I just spent 3 nights at this beautiful rental property and we had a wonderful stay. The home was lovely and the grounds were spectacular- we absolutely loved the tree house and wooded trail to the river. Everything about the check in/ check out process was super easy, and the host was great. Everything about this listing was as described. We would enjoy staying here again in the future.

Fantastic cabin filled with thoughtful touches

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this cabin. Everywhere we looked there were interesting pieces of decor and everything was laid out comfortably. There is enough wilderness to explore if you want to stay on the property and many trails a short drive away. We especially enjoyed finding and exploring the treehouse in the woods (compete with hammocks). Definitely recommend this cabin for anyone blending woods with comfort on their vacation.

We stayed at Jennifer’s property with our kids for four nights. The property itself was expansive and had a lot of room to roam with our new rescue pup. The house itself was decorated beautifully and had so many neat rustic features including the beautiful wooden spiral staircase, fireplace and three bedrooms. The grounds had some very special features to explore including a creek and beautiful views. Jennifer also provided some one on one guidance over the phone when we had questions. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

Not as described

Listing says 30+ acres secluded land & treehouse it failed to mention that it was shared by other cabins on the same property. Black mold in the bathroom. All chairs at firepit broken, Broken paver step. No step at the back door. Light fixtures very dirty & some not working (which the host offered to have a cleaner come in, I did say I felt uncomfortable with a cleaner there while my family is there to relax. Internet not working. Last straw was 2 smoke detectors in entire home & 1 did not work when tested. Host told me that there were multiple in different areas. I offered to send pictures of those areas showing no smoke detectors, but she was defensive. I told her I wanted to let her know we would be leaving that afternoon as we did not feel safe to spend the night. She kept making excuses for everything “lawn wasn’t mowed because it rained for 4 days, maybe a storm came through & tossed chairs around. Then, she finally said I was harassing her, I guess by responding to her text. She felt I was putting down her home. I told her it’s nice, just not as described & lacking maintenance. She text “leave now” & cancelled reservation which prevented me from leaving a review until I contacted VRBO. Cancellation reason “an aggressive dog (lie) & because access was denied (another lie). Within 15 minutes our stuff was outside the home & we were loaded & leaving within 30 minutes. The cleaner watched us from her car in the driveway all while still getting nasty texts from the host.
