About the host
Hosted by OMAR
I am a native New Yorker in a creative field. It is my dream to live in the big city, but love to have the opportunity to go to the country.
I bought this house to do just that and also rent out for short term rentals.

Why they chose this property
I wanted a property that is close to all the best things around and is a year round destination.
Summer on Lake Wallenpaupak is a great time of year.
Summer being by the lake to enjoy the water, swimming & boating on those hot summer days.
Take in the Fall Foliage and small country towns. Plus all the Fall Festivals.
Hiking in the Pocono Mountains is a ideal for hikers
Skiing in the winter - The house is about 45 minutes away from 5 ski resorts.
Watch the trees bloom and days warm in the Spring.
So much more to do in the Poconos than the Catskills.
