My wife and I loved the place, it was well kept, the blankets were warm and the bed comfortable. The lounges/daybed type things were so comfortable I ended up taking an accidental nap. The view out the back window/off the porch was nice. The area itself was quiet.

Amazing get away in the woods

The cabin is a nice quaint place to stay lots of trees for privacy birds chirping and tree branches slightly swinging. Great getaway for a weekend. Inside feel like an old cabin but with modern accessories.
Great room for kids and teenagers

Absolutely Lovely

Everything was just as listed - clean linens and towels, a clean house. There was some trash in the back or side from the neighbors, whose trash had been ravaged by some critter, but it wasn't an issue for our purposes.We had a multi-day event at Kalahari Resort and loved being able to quickly go back and forth - close to everything but remote enough to be relaxing. Loved the communication with the host!

Very nice cabin...

The cabin is very nice and well kept, very clean... The sofa was not very comfortable. Chris was very responsive and helpful. We couldn't find much to do in the area so that was really they only downfall. Our little dog had a blast exploring.

Cabin

The cabin was quite cozy and clean. We would have rated our stay higher had it not been for the people renting the property next to it, who played loud music and banged pots and pans until midnight. These things happen, and it's just the luck of the draw with other Vrbo people trying to have their version of a good time. Maybe we'll have better luck next time.

Just what we needed!

My kiddo wanted to stay in a cabin and have a fire in a fire pit, and this fit the bill perfectly. Clean and tidy and not remote--in a tiny neighborhood near all the tourist stuff but feels far away from that.

Perfect weekend getaway

My family and I had a wonderful and comfortable stay here at the cabin. It was the perfect spot to come back to after a day of activities in Mount Pocono. outlets were close and we had a wonderful breakfast out. The kids loved exploring the wooded property. We will definitely come back and stay again in the warmer months so we can enjoy the outdoor fire pit!
