Large Private Rustic Retreat w/hot tub, fire pit, game room
"La Maison de Montagne" (The Mountain House) welcomes you to the heart of the Pocono Mountains. Located just five minutes from Camelback Lodge, this light-filled, enchanting home was renovated in the French rural farmhouse style. You’ll find gorgeous hardwoods, custom industrial accents, and high quality craftsmanship throughout.
There’s plenty of space to comfortably hang out in the living room which has a massive sectional. The fireplace and large TV on the custom feature wall make it the perfect place to relax with a glass of wine or hot chocolate after a long day of skiing or hiking.
You’ll love cooking or even just making a cup of coffee before hitting the slopes in the completely updated chef’s kitchen where you’ll find high quality stainless steel appliances and a gorgeous apron-front copper sink. Dine comfortably in the breakfast nook which seats six, or the full dining table which seats eight.
The outdoor spaces are a delight even in the winter. Rest your tired muscles in the hot tub, or make s’mores over the fire pit. You’ll also find a deck with a patio set and propane grill (propane included) just off the kitchen, and a picnic table and hammock near the firepit. There’s plenty of room to play cornhole or other outdoor games in the warmer months.
Three of the bedrooms contain plush king-size beds and the fourth bedroom contains bunk beds; all are adorned with the finest linens. In total, there’s plenty of space for eight to have a great night’s rest. Each bedroom has more than enough storage space for your luggage and gear, and each bedroom also has its own TV.
The bathrooms (one master en-suite and one spacious guest bathroom off the main living area) are totally modern with unique tilework and lovely fixtures, to include luxurious rainfall showerheads. Hotel-quality bath linens await you.
Finally, the sizable game room is an excellent place to spend your evenings or a day when you need a break from the outdoors. With a full size pool table, vintage arcade game, high top table, sofa, large TV, and industrial theme, you’ll find hours of entertainment.
Minutes to Kalahari Resort, shopping outlets, skiing, waterparks, hiking, and much more.
The house is fully stocked with a full-size washer/dryer, appliances, and cookware. A 220V electric vehicle charger outlet available at no charge.
Age restriction 25 and over.

This was a nice house with a hot tub that provided a lot of entertainment and comfortable living space. We really enjoyed ourselves here and the host was very responsive! Especially appreciate easy check in and check out.
The location was great! Close to everything we wanted to do during our trip. The house was comfortable and spacious. The kids loved the kids room with the bunk bed.
Great place to relax and enjoy the pocono mountqins. It has a great location, close to a lot of attractions. The place is really nice, modern and clean. I would highly recommend booking a vacation here
Leading up to the weekend, the owner was very easy to communicate with. His responses were quick and clear, My brothers and I had an excellent time reconnecting. Home is clean, comfortable and has excellent amenities. Property is near a busy road but you wouldn't know it. A tasty breakfast bistro is in walking distance. Wish we had an extra day or two. Would rebook without question.
The home was very spacious and clean. Backyard and fire pit leaves time for cozy nights and backyard fun. This house was located close to many day trip adventures.
What a fantastic house. Everything you could ever need was provided. The home is decorated beautifully and it was so comfortable. I would stay here again if ever in the area! The host was so attentive and kind. Best VRBO!
We were celebrating 40 years of friendship. Loved the pool table and video game. House was very clean. Host was extremely responsive when I reached out to him during our stay. Very close to shopping and restaurants
This place is great. Then entire house is completely renovated. Its secluded in the woods so you can have fun here! Rooms are all of good size. Outside area is nice with hot tub and solid fire pit setup. Communication with the owner is great as well. Rent with confidence!

Thank you so much for staying in our house Kevin!
You are always welcome here:)
Everything we needed. Family weekend away. Communication with the host was excellent: friendly, and responsive. Comfortable stay. Kitchen had everything we needed for basics like coffee, etc. we didn’t attempt any meals there but looks like we could have with pots and pans etc. Kids braved the hot tub outside in freezing cold temps.
Thank you for the stay! What a beautiful and lovely home. This home is very welcoming, very clean, organized. There’s nothing negative about this home. Surely I was at peace, everything you need is there the hot tub, the fire pit. My favorite place was the back porch were I had my coffee every morning to listen to nature. My grandkids loved the fact they had their own room and the game room is super cool, with a pool table and a classic arcade game with 80’s games. Only suggestion, a safety guard should be available for toddlers at the entryway downstairs to game room.especially if you have hyper toddlers lol. I thank you and God bless!
Great communication with the owner. Easy check in process. House was exactly as described in the listing. Clean. Well stocked. Great amenities. Comfortable. Excellent location. Close to a wide variety of stores. Restaurants. Activities. A minute off a main road. Very convenient. Would definitely recommend. If I had anything "negative" to say, it's minor stuff. Could use a dish drain and few kitchen towels. Maybe a couple larger inside door mats to keep from tracking debris into the house (we kept it clean). All very minor little stuff that doesn't detract from the rating of this home. We had a great time. Hope to return for next year's trip..
The house is great and just as advertised! Communication with the owner was easy. Came with a group of friends for 4th of July weekend and had a lot fun. Definitely recommend this house.
This was a very nice property with a homey feel that was very clean. You can tell that the inside has been updated and renovated with a lot of nice Pinterest worthy touches! Communication with the host was excellent and he responded to any questions promptly. The hot tub was a welcome treat after a long day of skiing. I would only have a few suggestions that could improve the stay. Blinds on the windows would add some extra privacy as most of the curtains were sheer. We used the kitchen to prepare all of our meals and a pantry closet to store groceries would have been useful. There were plenty of pots, dishes and utensils but a few extra dish towels would be handy. Also I wish we could have figured out how to use the gas fireplace without the blower option. It provided a great atmosphere but did make the room very hot and we would end up turning it off after a little bit. The living room area with the big TV was fantastic to hang out in but a recliner would have been a nice extra seating option. The downstairs game area was a fun spot and the bedrooms down there were very nicely decorated with plenty of room to spread out. The only other issue we had was there was a fan humming noise that was coming from the closet area that housed the hot water heater. You couldn’t hear it upstairs but it was annoying if you slept downstairs. Overall the house was a good choice for our group and I would recommend it! Thanks Besik ;-)
This updated home is beautiful inside and an excellent value. Plenty of activities and restaurants. Only downside was an odd septic odor which prevented use of the back yard amemeties.
