Amazing vacation house!

Our stay was excellent from beginning to end. When we walked in the house it was clean, well stocked, and welcoming. There is lots to do at the house and very close to mountains, restaurants, and stores. If you have a group, this is the place to stay. I highly recommend it!

Amazing

This was a great stay. We had 15 people in our party and there was enough space to accommodate everyone. The hot tub was a great way to relax at the end of the night. The dining areas were big enough where we could all enjoy dinner together. It was clean and well decorated. We 3 nights and each night there was something to do whether it was relax in the hot tub, we had a game night down in the game room and even relaxed outside. The kids even enjoyed seeing the deer and rabbits that graced the yard at times..

Family and dog had a great stay at this home. Plenty of indoor activities to do plus outdoor hot tub.Only hiccup was check in as previous tenants made it difficult for the cleaning crew to be done in time. Our check in delayed by 20mins roughly. Regardless, house was spotless and ready for our stay. Highly recommend.

Excellent Stay!

Property was spacious and had plenty of room to host our large group! Everyone had a bed and the common indoor and outdoor spaces had room for everyone to hang out in rain or shine. There was some construction on the pool deck which was not pictured that was a surprise, only reason for the 4 stars. Definitely stay here, MGMT are quite responsive and accommodating.

House was clean. Basement was amaZing for children. Plenty of space. House needs a lot of updates and bed seem full size not queen. Deck being built around pool is not safe at all for you get children and outside is not upkept. Grass needs to be cut

We had a wonderful stay at this property and would absolutely book it again. We had a group of 13 and were so impressed. The home was spacious, well-stocked, and had a layout that worked perfectly for our family. The pool and jacuzzi were big highlights — once everything was cleaned and ready, they were a great place for us to relax and spend time together.The hosts were extremely responsive, thoughtful, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. Their cleaning team and handyman were fantastic — professional, kind, and helpful when we had a few minor issues that needed attention.Like any rental, there were a few things that popped up (such as trash bins being full from the previous guests and some minor cosmetic wear around the home), but none of it took away from our ability to enjoy the space or the time we spent there. We could tell the owners genuinely care about the guest experience, and they were open to feedback and eager to make improvements.Overall, this was a great home base for our vacation. It was clean, comfortable, and full of everything we needed to create special memories with our family. We’re grateful for the hospitality and hope to return again in the future!

Great Spot for a Ski Getaway!

We had a great time in the house and everything went about as smoothly as possible! There was plenty of room for 4 families and everything and just worked. The only updates I'd recommend would be to supply some additional cookware and utensils. For a house that sleeps 18, there was only a set of utensils for like 12-14 people, a few pots and 3 pans. We added a colander to the collection :-) If you're going to the Poconos to ski, the location is pretty much perfect! It was so conveniently located that we hit Camelback, JF/BB and Blue Mountain. IF you're going with a group. This is the spot to stay.

Poconos Ski Trip

Our group of 10 adults and 1 infant had a great time here. The host was communicative and responsive. The house itself was perfect for our group. Plenty of bedrooms that each couple had at least their own queen bed. We also had plenty of space to gather around the living room, or spread out in the basement where they had ping pong, billiards, and multiple arcade games. They also had another couch and TV in the basement in case people didn't want to watch the same thing upstairs. We also loved the endless hot water supply which is often an issue when traveling with a group as large as ours. Cooking was also easy as there was plenty of counter space and a large enough oven/stovetop. I appreciated how there was a second full size refrigerator in the laundry room hallway. We were provided with enough paper goods and trash bags for our 3 night stay, although I would recommend bringing your own aluminum foil/plastic wrap for left overs. I appreciated this place had plenty of silverware and plates/cups for everyone, unlike some other large rentals.The location was nice and quiet and close to many mountains for skiing/snowboarding. There was also other local amenities nearby which the host provided a nice list in the guide once booked. Overall we had a great time! I have received many calls and texts already from my friends how they loved the house and after many years of Poconos ski trips, we have finally found the perfect house. We will definitely be back next year!

Booked this property for a 4 day getaway with friends. House is beautiful and was clean upon arrival. Scott was very responsive prior to booking and even during our stay.

About the host

Hosted by Scott Kunz

Host profile image
Hey there, thank you for viewing our home. We've been hosting a few years now together, my brother Robbie and sister Eleathea, as a small family owned business. We host in the Poconos Mountains, a place we used to cherish visiting our grandparents and extended family as kids. We wanted to bring that same quiet, rural, family-oriented experience to others.

We hope we can bring as much joy and togetherness to you and your family as it has brought ours over the years.

Cheers!

Why they chose this property

I grew up in Philadelphia, and my family rented a house in the pocono mountains in my youth. I loved going up there, fishing, shooting trap, hiking, running around with my dog. Being able to now host that experience for others is a dream come true!

When I was looking for a property, I really wanted one that I and my whole family could come stay at. I also wanted a space that people were thrilled to visit, with its beautiful large windows in the living room, it's modern design, and large interior it really felt cozy and spacious at the same time.

Having my entire family there, but also having them feel like we weren't crowding each other all weekend was very important. I love that it's a very open floor plan, but there are multiple living spaces in case people want to do a noisier activity downstairs, or watch tv.

Additionally, it's nestled perfectly within the woods, hidden in a far corner where there is less traffic, it has barely a neighbor in sight.

What makes this property unique

With a hot tub, outdoor pool, movie theater, pool table, ping pong table, arcade machine, n64, there's never a lack of things to do! You may never end up leaving the house.
