Had a great stay at Promise Kept cabin! Enjoyed the hot tub, fire pit, game room, and fireplace. Great base of operations for exploring the Poconos and a perfect place to relax for the weekend.

We really enjoyed our trip here! We had seven adults and two dogs. More than enough bedrooms and space. Easy location and very quiet neighborhood. Host communication was excellent!

I'm thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your trip at my cabin with plenty of bedrooms and space for your group. It's great to know that you found the location convenient and the neighborhood quiet. I'm glad my communication met your expectations. It was a pleasure hosting you, and I hope to welcome you back for another wonderful stay in the future!
Great house and had a great time! The kids loved it too! Plenty of room to spread out with 14 people and a baby. Jason was amazing at getting back to us with any questions and only wish we could’ve stayed longer.
My friends and I had a great time spending 4 days at this cabin. Tons of amenities to enjoy right there (arcade games, hot tub, firepit, etc.) Property owner's hospitality and communication was great throughout. One if not the best VRBO rental experience and I've been renting places for nearly 20 years. Should all the stars align, my friends and I may be back again in 2025 :-)
We booked the place for a chill bachelor party weekend. Jason was great to work with and his communication was on point. The house had the rustic feel with modern amenities. Would definitely book again!!

I'm thrilled to hear that you had a great bachelor party weekend at the cabin. It's wonderful that you enjoyed the rustic feel along with modern amenities. I appreciate your kind words about my communication. Looking forward to hosting you again for another memorable stay!
We loved this Poconos house! Our large group was very comfortable with all the bedrooms and common areas. The kids and adults enjoyed the game room downstairs as well as the large hot tub. Jason was available and communicative during our stay. Thanks for everything!
The place was easy to access. Jason was so attentive with all the questions or any concerns (if any) that I had. The place was clean and well maintained. From the hot tub, to the fire pit, to playing ping pong or video games this place was well equipped and beautiful to stay at. And all beds were very very comfortable. We will be back. Thank you for a wonderful week relaxing vacation.
This property was just the perfect place for my family and I (my pets two) everything was in their place, the kitchen was fully equipment and the rooms were comfortable for all our family members. Jason was great with communication and he always answered us immediately. We hope to come back next year.
What a great time our family of 15 had ranging from ages 14 to 82! Celebrating our daughter’s 25th birthday. House was wonderful and had everything we needed and was a perfect Pocono feeling with decor! Loved it and would rent again! Jason was great at communicating from start to finish!
Our family of 11 spent a very relaxing 5 days enjoying the Lake Harmony area. Great location in a neighborhood perfect for walking our dogs. Less than 10 minutes to Lake Harmony, Jack Frost Ski resort, several restaurants and stores. Although the weather didn’t cooperate we made the best of it catching up on sleep. We enjoyed the large tvs for watching football games, dining area for playing games and the living room for working on a puzzle. Some much needed family time for cousins and 3 generations to begin 2025 together.
This cabin was a great location for our family get together. We came together from three states and both people and pets were all able to find a place to call their own. More importantly there were ample spaces for us to gather in smaller and larger groups. Whether it be in front of the big screen tv, on one of the decks or at the hot tub/fire pit, we were able to create pricless memories. It was clear that our host Jason considers the comfort of his guests priority while also being mindful of the community surrounding the cabin.

Thank you for your wonderful review! I'm thrilled to hear that the cabin was a great location for your family get-together, accommodating both people and pets from three states. I'm delighted that you were able to create priceless memories together, whether gathering in front of the big screen TV, on the decks, or at the hot tub/fire pit. Ensuring guest comfort and respecting the community are top priorities for me as a host. Your kind words mean a lot, and I look forward to hosting your family again for more memorable gatherings in the future!
We had a 15 person group, ranging in age from 9 to 96. We had a fabulous time. The house was spacious and clean. There were places the kids could hang out and play games and the main floor, with the kitchen and living room, was able to accommodate everyone at meal time. Host Jason responded promptly to our questions. The community beach was ideal for an afternoon outing. Would definitely recommend this house.
Overall the stay was very comfortable and relaxing we had a lot of fun at the fire pit and hot tub. If you are looking for a place to get away from everyday stress, this is a good place to do it.I only have one very small recommendation for the owner. I would like to rent this place again in the winter season in the future and I am a person who really enjoys the smell of firewood. It took me a little work to light the fire pit, since the wood was a little damp. It would be a good idea to build a shed or pergola for the wood or place it in a place where it will not come into contact with rain or snow.
