The property was just beautiful! Well taken care of, super comfortable and the cleanest we have ever stayed at. We enjoyed the fireplace so much and sitting outside in the rain under the overhang. We hope to visit again sometime!

There were a lot of interesting decor which I'm sure has history. They had many extra's for any situation from extra water for toilets to lanterns, hair dryer, first aid kit and so much more. Location was perfect for the park. Thank you for an enjoyable stay.

Diamond Janie’s was a very charming cabin and hosts had all the bases covered. Is the most perfect place to stay to hike Rickets Glenn, close to either entrance and the red rock corner store. Say hello to the little chipmunk living by the tranquil little creek on the property. I will be back.

A great place to stay to enjoy Rickett’s Glen State Park. So convenient! The cabin is cozy and quiet. The outside back area is a relaxing retreat to have a morning cup of coffee and sit in an Adirondack chair. Would visit again.

Diamond Jane's cabin was truly a blessing for my daughter and I on our trip. The cabin was very clean and accommodating for our weekend. The Host's were spot on, on what renters are looking for and we could not have asked for anything more. Truly a great getaway spot!

The cabin is more astonishing in person!! The craftsmanship is beautiful and the atmosphere emanates a cozy, comfortable, home away from home feeling that will leave you wanting to make this your permanent woodland retreat!! The hosts were absolutely fantastic!! They provide lists for everything you need to ensure you are well prepared for your trip, leaving behind the stress of life as you walk through the cabin doors. I know not to look any further for Pocono rentals because this will be our go to for a romantic couple retreat and our family friendly vacation! Thank you Stephanie and Brian for being amazing hosts!!!

Our stay was just perfect. We came for a long weekend to hike the falls. When we got there, I was very pleasantly surprised at how lovely, clean, peaceful, and charming the cabin and grounds were. It’s very close to the trailhead as well, if you are coming for the hike like us. We enjoyed the fire pit outside by the little stream as well as the indoor fireplace. The kitchen was very thoughtfully stocked with all you could need to prepare meals. The gas grill outside was a nice touch as well. It was great for the two of us, but would be wonderful for a bigger family too. Highly recommended!

Property was just as described and the owners were exceptional in their communication. It's a beautiful little cabin that is perfect for couples. The large living room area could have easily slept another couple or kids. The fire pit and little brook right out the back door as well as the Adirondack chairs made for three wonderful evenings around the fire. They also have a nice propane grill out back. There is a general store right down the street with some items that we needed ( if you're a hoagie lover try the Palmer special) as well as a Dollar General about a mile away. Rickett's Glenn is 3 to 4 miles away up the mountain and a wonderful place to hike. We had a phenomenal time and will definitely keep it in mind for the future. Highly recommend staying here if you are in the area.
