Simply the best
The home was exactly as described - updated, beautifully decorated, clean and comfortable. Easily, the best part of our stay (aside from making unforgettable memories) was working with Bobby and Brandon. They are the most gracious, responsive hosts I’ve had the privilege of working with. They went above and beyond every step of the way; even going so far as to share holiday decorations with us. Thank you for such a wonderful experience; we can’t wait to come back!!

This house is all that and more. We enjoyed my Daughters Sweet 16 Birthday weekend and couldn’t of asked for a better place to do so. We enjoyed nights by the firepits making s’mores and of course the hot tub was very relaxing. Bobby and Brandon are amazing host.

Amazing Pocono Home
We have travelled a lot over the years and stayed in many many homes; this is by far top 5. Every detail has been considered and the place is immaculate. There are a lot of rental homes in the poconos and many just don’t cut it from our perspective. This home will definitely not disappoint you . If your considering staying at this home stop considering and book it. You don’t want to stay anywhere else.

Girls Trip 2021
This was the absolute perfect spot for our girls trip. We wanted somewhere peaceful in nature that was spacious and modern. This was absolutely all that and then some. There was no detail overlooked and it definitely felt very much like home. The hosts were very prompt in their responses and offered some terrific recommendations. We would definitely love to stay here again.
