Two branches of Marshalls Creek flow through the property with over 350 feet of stream frontage. The creek has good populations of brown, brook and rainbow trout year-round. In addition, we are within a short drive from blue ribbon trout streams such as the Brodhead, Bushkill, Big Pocono, McMichaels and more.

We have three bedrooms with a double, queen and king beds and an additional sleeping area in the loft, which overlooks the living room and offers a futon bed and a twin bed with a trundle. This space makes a wonderful reading area and/or fourth bedroom. An old time arcade machine (Space Invaders!) and Atari console are available.

Fresh linens and towels are provided for every guest.

Our washer & dryer are there for your use during your stay. We provide laundry detergent & dryer sheets/dryer balls. To protect our well and conserve water, please limit laundry to two loads per day.

The kitchen is fully stocked so you can cook like you’re at home. We have both a drip coffee maker and Keurig. We provide ground coffee, K‑cups, sugar, creamer, and sweeteners so you can start your morning your way. A Culligan water cooler supplies unlimited filtered water—cold or hot. We also supply quality cookware, dinnerware, utensils, a selection of spices and pantry basics.

The upstairs bathroom features a clawfoot bathtub.

A wood-burning fireplace in the living room and a wood-burning stove on the enclosed back porch help chase away the chill.

You can enjoy the hot tub any time of day—and it's open year-round. A towel warmer inside the back porch, just steps from the 6-person hot tub, is available for your comfort.

Spotlights light up the Woods of Wisdom in the backyard. A flowing creek, picnic tables, fire pit, and hammocks with several seating areas make spending time outdoors a delight.

We provide wood for the fireplace, wood stove and fire pit and also provide propane for the grill.

We are located right off of US Route 209 (Milford Rd) in East Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, very close to waterfalls, Delaware Water Gap, skiing and many awesome attractions. Spend your entire stay at Rustic Rest or explore the area's attractions.

Easy, paved access
Level gravel driveway and the cabin sit about 50 yards off Marshalls Creek Road. You’ll have straightforward paved access—no steep dirt roads or narrow wooden bridges to worry about. sitThe neighborhood is a friendly cluster of cabins, so you get woodland privacy without being completely isolated. You may hear vehicle noise, particularly during commuter hour, since this is a local route; most guests are not bothered by this occasional road noise, but we want to be upfront for anyone seeking total wilderness silence.

Neighboring cabins
The cabin sits on 1.2 acres and within sight of four or five other cabins, including one active VRBO rental. You may occasionally hear activity from nearby properties.

Because our log cabin is rustic and located in the woods, you may encounter wildlife including insects, mice, (flying) squirrels, bats, snakes, raccoons, deer, and bears. If this bothers you, our cabin might not be the right fit for you.

We love dogs and welcome them, but the yard is not fenced. There’s plenty of space on our property to explore.

Note for those with allergies. Our cleaners do a thorough job between stays, but because we’re pet‑friendly, guests with allergies should keep that in mind before booking.

Gathering around the fire pit is a favorite. Outdoor wood fires are subject to state and county rules and seasonal burn bans; if a ban is in effect, the fire pit must remain unused.



Safety Devices:
We have five security cameras located on the property. One faces the front walk and lower part of the driveway. One faces the garage and the upper driveway. One faces the house. One faces the stream on the far side of the house to monitor the water level. The last camera is in the lean-to. They will be on.

No smoking or vaping is allowed inside the cabin or while sitting in the hot tub. If you need to smoke or vape, please smoke well away from the front and rear doors. Also, please dispose of your smoking materials responsibly. Thank you!
