Ski trip

My family rented this cabin for a short ski trip to Elk mtn. The cabin was really nice and described nicely in summary. We couldn’t do much exploring of propety due to amount of snow but we are already looking forward to renting this in summer. It’s right on lake with a dock, couldn’t ask for anything better. We really enjoyed our visit.

Rustic Pocono Cabin On Small Lake

Nice, rustic, well used, comfortable cabin. Lovely Summit Lake with fish to catch and the host providing a row boat, canoe and kayaks. There is a nice fire pit for campfires, the host providing the firewood and comfortable seating. Located away from other attractions, the cabin and grounds made a nice place for our family vacation.

Great, Cozy Stay -- Need 4 Wheel Drive in Winter

We had such a lovely time at this cozy little cabin! It’s simple, charming, and had everything we needed, including firewood for the fireplace, which made our evenings extra special. While it’s a bit more basic in terms of amenities, the location is perfect for skiing and offers a peaceful getaway. Just a heads-up—the owner’s advice about needing a 4x4 in winter is definitely true—one of our family members in a Tesla couldn’t make it. The kids had a blast, and the Internet worked perfectly. Overall, it was a fantastic stay for anyone wanting some quiet time in nature!

Relaxing Getaway

The property was secluded and relaxing with beautiful views. House and decks could use some maintenance and updates. It was clean and comfortable - plenty of space. Camp across the lake gets noisy.

Lake front Getaway

Overall, the stay was very nice with the best being lake access and availability to the equipment. Really enjoyed how it seems so secluded and private. The cabin has a very rustic feel which is fine and expected but some focus on basic upgrades and property maintenance would make it perfect.

Pocono Heaven

We stayed here President’s Day weekend 2024 and had a wonderful time. Very comfy cozy. Only approximately 25 minutes away from Elk Mountain which was very convenient. Just make sure you bring everything you need as the stores locally may not have what you need.

Great time

Thanks so much Jim! We had a great time. Fishing was decent. We caught a bunch of pickerel and some bass. We also fished at Belmont Lake which was nice. The place was great. We especially liked the fire pit area and the dock area. Thanks for everything. Rich Wilcox

nicer than the pics make it look… kind of

I stayed here with 7 friends. We showed up to the property and actually thought the pictures didn’t do it justice, a lot nicer! We had an amazing stay, and the AC works good during the hot summer months (not as much in the loft). Tip- bring toilet paper, garbage bags, and paper towel. It says provided but there was 1-2 of each. A couple little things we thought that could make this place even better: 1. More seating. it sleeps 10, but there is only seating at the table and couches as well as dock for 5-6. 2. Clean/update carpets. Just so old and dirty. 3. Lighting outside- rope lighting by the fire and down to the dock would look stunning. Really fun trip and really amazing stay.

An outdoor delight

The lakefront chalet was in an incredible location! We lucked out with gorgeous weather to enjoy the outdoors here, which is truly the highlight. Ample kayaks, a canoe, a fishing boat, even some tubes, there’s plenty of options. The fire pit was stocked with logs making it easy to enjoy a nighttime fire and surprisingly we didn’t ever need bug spray (a welcome surprise). The cabin interior is definitely that of a cabin- the carpeting and couches are a little tired and maybe it could use a female’s decorating touch, but there was a nice view of the lake to eat by and essentials were all there. Beds were comfortable. For a house that allows dogs we weren’t expecting perfection inside (animals create wear and tear, we get it)! I’d say it was true to the online photos. We appreciated being able to come and go easily with the check in and check out process. There wasn’t a mile long list on exactly how to do things that many STRs have- it was refreshing to just clean up as we would at our own house and be on our way! Thank you Jim!

We have returned to this property year after year. Our family enjoys all the thoughtful things supplied here: firewood, grill supplies, boats, bikes, campfire chairs, line for the dog, etc. Our family only needs to pack our clothes and food! The kids spend hours on the float. We boat all day. We take walks and the neighbors we run into are kind. No road noise, so peaceful. Breathtaking view from the porch. Yes this is more of a rustic cabin - and we love that. We loved the hummingbird feeder this year. Thanks for another great year.

Always a Fun Vacation

Our 14th or 15th stay here. It's nice to see the improvements that Jim the owner is making. New carpet and tile in the living area were welcome improvements. We normally come during the cooler months and have never needed to use the A/C but it was HOT during our visit and the A/C was wonderful. Fishing was good, weather was the best we've had. Always great to explore and find new places in the area
