Thank you so much! I’m glad to hear the house had everything you needed and that you enjoyed the space and outdoor areas. I really appreciate your kind words about the communication too. We’d love to have you back anytime!
The owners were so nice and easy to deal with. The house was so clean and comfortable. Has everything and more. Great place and people. Thank you for having us there.
We had the perfect weekend here for a short notice weekend getaway. It was great being so close to Montage mountain so we could ski in the morning and then come back and relax. Our son loved the pool table, dart board, and games. He can’t wait to come back.
Clean and comfortable, enjoyed the updated kitchen and baths. Could not appreciate the community amenities due to bad weather but Anle to Golf one day and food was very good at Golf Clubhouse.
My husband and I brought our 2 year old daughter here and had a really nice few days. We loved going to the beach during the day and sitting by the fire out back at night. We found the king bed on the first floor extremely comfortable. Can’t wait to return!
We were really happy with our stay. It rained all day and we enjoyed the well stocked games, pool table, darts, and fireplace.
The homeowners were friendly, easy to get ahold of, and answered all my questions.
We love the ski Hill. We came last year and snowboarded for one day and staff remembered us. Staff was very friendly.
We had a great time there, the home was great and had a lot of room. The community was very spacious and the home was only 30 minutes away from a lot of stores. The communication with the owner was good and they replied very quickly. We had a lot of fun there.
This was our first trip to the area. The Lake Ariel area was beautiful and the house we rented was excellent. The owner,Paul, was very responsive and friendly. The place exceeded our expectations. We will be back!!!

Shonda we are so happy you and the family enjoyed your stay! We very much loved hosting you all. We can’t wait to have you back!
We have stayed at this rental home twice. Once in the summer and this past February to ski. The Hideout is a great spot for families and this house is the best rental available. Plenty of beds for two families to get together!! Main floor equipped with plenty of games for all ages. Clean, updated, stylish.
The Cottage was clean and comfortable. It was well-equipped with kitchen utensils, a new gas grill, smart TV, and games. The Hideout is a really nice, quiet community. Check in was easy and staff was helpful. Paul was helpful and responsive Loved the nice cool mountain air! Would definitely stay at the Salty Box Cottage again!
Beautiful and clean home. Lots of nice amenities pool table, darts, games, grill, firepit, swing and full kitchen supplies. The gated community has a walking trail, mini golf, pools and access to lake with a beach
The house was very clean, comfortable, and cute. My 4-year old loved all of the games available inside the house as well as all of the things to do around the neighborhood. The whole family came so my husband and I could attend a friend's wedding, and the house was very accommodating to all of our different schedules and needs. A lovely home.
My family and I were lucky enough to be the first renters of Paul and Fatima’s home in the Hideout community. Everything was just as shown in the pictures, beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. The owners were very responsive and easy to communicate with and even had the fire pit ready to go! During our stay we had a good bit of rain so playing pool as well as the games that were at the house was great. Thank you Paul and Fatima for making our stay enjoyable.

Jennifer we were so excited to have you and your family as our first renters! So happy that you enjoyed yourselves! All the best! Paul and Fatima
Everything was as expected. Newly renovated, clean and conveniently located in the Hideout. My 1 and only issue was the King bed was too soft for me, I unfortunately need a more supportive mattress so I had to go sleep with my on in the bunkbed room. My husband had no problem though.
The Hideout is a gem of a community, with two very nice sand beaches and a very helpful 24-hour staff. This cottage was just what our large family needed for a few days in the Poconos.
We have five boys ages 3 to 16 and they all fit comfortably in the bunk room, leaving a whole bedroom for our daughter, and we slept great in the main-floor bedroom which had plenty of room for the baby's pack and play.
The very large dinner table was perfect: Some friends of ours with an equally large family were staying at another VRBO a few miles away and they had no dinner table at all!
Paul and Fatima were extremely gracious, attentive, and flexible--would recommend to anyone!
