About the cozy chalet available: our 1,750 square foot chalet is located in the un-gated section of BBL which allows for the ease and convenience of coming and going for you and your guests. The warm and inviting floor plan captures you the moment you walk through the door and immediately makes you feel at home! The beautiful and spacious layout allows guests to relax in the living room with plenty of seating or the kitchen area with seating for 4 at the island or the 6 person table. From all angles, the fireplace (wood included) is front and center along with "Big Buck" above it! There are 4 nicely sized BR and 2 full baths with one bathroom and bedroom located on the main floor. There is a deck on the back of the house and a 2nd floor video game area for the kids with comfy bean bags. Kids love this cozy little hangout! A smart TV and DVD player are located in the living room along with a variety of DVD options. High-speed internet is included.

We are in the highest point of the Poconos so it typically stays cool in the house at night during warm weather months. While the house does not have air conditioning, there are ceiling fans in each room as well as box fans if needed. I have owned the house for over 10 years and not once did I wish I had air conditioning!

Outside, sit back and relax around the fire pit! Enjoy some s'mores and campfire stories while making memories that will last a lifetime. Or go on a little adventure and find your own sticks and wood in the area surrounding the house. On the back deck, there is a charcoal grill if you are up for BBQ'ing.

The house is located on the same street as Lake Natalie where there is a Marina and fishing options. The Gouldsboro State Park is across the street and offers great hiking options and breathtaking views. It is also a short drive to many other adventures including: Kalahari Water Park Resort, Great Wolf Lodge, Camelback Mountain Resort, Mt. Airy Casino, Montage Ski Resort, Jack Frost Mountain Resort, Pocono Raceway, Split Rock Waterpark, Arrowhead Lake, The Crossing Premium Outlet Shopping, Claws'n'Paws Wild Animal Park and so much more! Additionally, you can find grocery stores and great restaurants within 15 minutes.

Thank you for booking! We know you will have a great time relaxing, working or enjoying a little time away!

Great Mountain Getaway
This was the perfect house for our mountain gateway. The residence has a nice inviting vibe. We were looking for a “pet friendly” home as this was perfect. The dogs loved it and it was great to not have to leave them behind when we traveled. The access to Big Bass Lake pool, courts and beaches was wonderful. It is a very safe and secure community. If you like to hike, the state park across the street has miles of trails. I brought my kayaks and had plenty of easy access to the three lakes nearby as well. The owners answered all my questions prior to arriving and made check in simple and easy. Great stay!

Great stay
Such a great host! Everything was clean and well equipped! We had deer visit us pretty much every day and was a highlight for us city peeps. Nice and quiet even with the state road close by you could hear tractor trailers ( we live near a train so it was nothing to us). Lots of swimming options and very nice facilities. Loved the fire pit! They even left us a basket of s’mores fixins which was a wonderful thoughtful touch. It was a super hot humid week but there was fans for all the rooms and it got chilly into the late night and gave us beautiful crisp perfect mornings for coffee out front to wait for the deer 🦌. Excellent WiFi to appease the kids and their electronics and the men to watch their movies. Things to do and see and shop all within a half hour all directions. Would definitely stay here again! Thanks Kristy!
