great stay

We had a great stay here. The snow made it magical and the kids were busy playing outside and watching the deer through all the windows in the living room. The beds were new and comfortable. Everything in the house was very nicely updated and clean.

Relaxing Vacation at the Hideout

Cozy house in the woods, enjoyed the relaxing living area, well stocked kitchen and comfortable king size beds. Nice sized deck for grilling and dining. Great fire pit area with chairs and lighting was fun for evening fires and smores. Close location to fishing area and main pool/tiki bar/beach. Thank you for a great stay!

Quite relaxing

Although it had snowed heavily the day before our arrival, the drive was cleared and the directions on how to gain entry were clear. It's a very quiet area and a very cozy cabin.

Perfect Little Chalet !

My wife and I always go away Halloween weekend and this year we found the perfect little hideaway for the two of us! The cabin was quaint and was decorated in a way that we felt comfy right away. It was located perfectly in the center of all of the adventures we had planned in different parts of the Pocono’s. We will most definitely return to the little chalet!

Rustic Chalet Getaway

Stayed here for two night. It is a rustic chalet in a great location. There is plenty to do in the hideout and this home is centrally located. We enjoyed the walking path on the side of the road along the lake. Check the photos well, the two twin beds are actually mattresses on the floor. Kitchen had what we needed and the living room is cozy and roomy.

The Little Jewel in the woods

The place is lovely, in the perfect location. Shopping centers about half an hour away. Perfect neighborhood. The only downside I found was difficult to drive at night, streets are very dark, I think at least on intersections there should be a street light, it's easy to go into a ditch while turning because you can't see where you're going.

Loved it!

Had a great 5 day stay at the little chalet in the woods with our family of 4 (2 adults and a 2 & 5 year old). Loved the front porch grill/seating area and fire pit. The house was clean and well stocked! We had more than enough room in the house too! The property manager was great and quick to respond as well. Thank you! We’ll be back!

Family Getaway

We are so grateful for the wonderful long weekend getaway we were able to experience at this beautiful and welcoming property. My daughters are graduating medical school and college this year and so, family getaways are even more precious somehow to try to get moments together. The property was just as it looks in its pictures - absolutely wonderful. We enjoyed cooking and watching movies in the evenings, while we explored the region throughout the days. The only extremely tiny bump for me is that I could not find a broom at the end of our stay - I don't know how I missed it - but I could not find a broom to sweep up as we were packing up. Thank you for a lovely stay, it's an absolutely beautiful property that is BETTER than its pictures. Thanks for the new memories. Marie

New year getaway

Arrival was a breeze, and the directions given from the manager made it extremely easy upon arrival. When we arrived at our chalet in the woods, it was everything we wanted. It really felt like you where surrounded by wilderness. Plenty of driveway.. everything was tidy and neat , we didn’t have a single issue while we were there. It was nice and warm when you needed it to be and cooler when you didn’t . We have stayed at arrowhead, and we believed that’s were we would return too, but the hideout has our hearts. Our house was literally walking distance to the ski hill, just a street over, and you wouldn’t even know it because of the authentic Poconos vibe the property offers. It’s the perfect spot. I’d give 6 stars if I could.

Not Great

In a nut shell it was dirty. Lots of cobwebs. Tables in family room and downstairs bedroom were dirty. The changing table had an actual baby tooth left on it. There was no TV in the downstairs bedroom. No curtains other than one sheer curtain on one bedroom window downstairs and a shade on the laundry room window. The neighborhood was nice and well kept but it’s in the middle of no where.

Beautiful home in the Poconos!

We had an absolutely lovely stay at Robert's home. The rooms were large and comfortable, beds were soft, kitchen was well-appointed and living room had games and books to entertain our little ones! This was our first time at the Hideout and we enjoyed all the community amenities. We wished we had a longer stay!! We would absolutely return. Thank you for having us!

Relaxing Stay

This property was exactly what my husband and I were looking for. Beautiful, rustic, clean, remote, and secluded. We had a wonderful and relaxing trip. Went to a couple of local restaurants, and some other activities. We mostly wanted to get away from the hustle and bustle and this is definitely the location you are looking for. Thanks again for a wonderful stay!
