About this property

Country Cabin in the Poconos, Couples getaway, Cresco, Barrett Township

Newly remodeled, the cottage exudes warmth, comfort and easy living reminiscent of slower paced time, but includes the modern necessities like internet access and a Roku television.
The romance inspired bedroom, colored in whites, soft pinks and greens, present a peaceful, serene and soothing refuge from the maddening world. Calming and a place to restore your energies, allow your cares and troubles to fade away in restful sleep. The green, checkered sofa pulls to a twin-size bed; perfect for a third guest.
Have some fun in the teacup inspired kitchen! The fully equipped kitchen is waiting for you to compose wonderful meals. The deep white sink makes washing dishes exciting! Rose inspired shelves and romantic plate racks hang upon the walls, a reminder of an era gone by.
Turning our focus outward, we hope you noticed the Weeping Willow tree alongside the house on your way in. It is in the background of a seating area for 4, a picnic table and a wood fire pit – a perfect location for relaxing, staying warm and enjoying the outdoors. In the rear of our cozy, country cottage is a babbling brook, plentiful wildlife, ferns and trees.
We hope you enjoy your stay and come again soon. We live across the street should you require help with anything.
Jaime and Jamie

This little cottage was perfect for me and my daughter. It seems secluded, yet so close to many things. The house provided everything we needed and the communication with the owners was great! If I ever need to be in the area again, I will definitely be looking to stay here!

Weekend getaway

The property itself is very clean and cozy. But the location is not the greatest and the house is in the backyard of the property owners so there is little to no privacy felt alittle uncomfortable

I’m sorry you didn’t have the best experience. The property isn’t in our back yard... we do not live in the house next door. The cabin has its own property, the closest house is merely a neighbor. We strive to provide our guests privacy, as the picnic area and fire pit are by the woods.

Perfect house for a quiet getaway

A great getaway for 2 in a quiet area. The house is beautifully updated with comfortable furniture. Very easy to work in the kitchen and it has all the basics for making your own meals. Jaime was responsive to my questions, although we didn’t have much. Spent an afternoon in the front yard sitting area for some R&R after biking.

Perfect Little Space!

We very much enjoyed our stay in this cute little cottage-like setting! It was very close to the event that we were in town for, communication was great, and the cottage was a super cozy spot to come back to after the festivities for both days. The owners have put some thought into making this a place of rest and relaxation, and they have done a great job. It's an old space with great vibes and character. The linens and towels were also plentiful and clean. Would definitely recommend!

Relaxing Get-away!!

I very much enjoyed my stay at the Cresco cottage! My daughter and I came up to the Poconos for a relaxing couple days in nature. The home was extremely clean and beautifully decorated. Everything you could need was in the kitchen for cooking any meal. While we encountered no major issues, the host was very accessible and helpful as needed for minor questions. Thank you, Jaimie for helping us have a great weekend getaway!

Lovely time!

Well maintained and clean. Overall, great experience. I suggest a more comfortable pullout and maybe moving the kitchen table down a bit so you could add a microwave stand. Having it on top of the refrigerator could lead to accidents plus a lot of people are too short to access it easily.

I’m glad you had a good time! I have a new sofa bed on order for 6 plus months now but with covid it’s crazy! There’s a small step stool for the microwave by the table. I’m sorry for any inconvenience.

In such a clean home and conveniently located area of Pennsylvania, this home includes an aura of comfortability and invitingness difficult to find in a lot of areas. An enjoyably silent stay makes this a peaceful and pleasant retreat, accommodating those wanting tranquility.
