About the host
Hosted by Scott Kunz
Hey there, thank you for viewing our home. We've been hosting a few years now together, my brother Robbie and sister Eleathea, as a small family owned business. We host in the Poconos Mountains, a place we used to cherish visiting our grandparents and extended family as kids. We wanted to bring that same quiet, rural, family-oriented experience to others.
We hope we can bring as much joy and togetherness to you and your family as it has brought ours over the years.
Cheers!

Why they chose this property
I grew up in Philadelphia, and my family rented a house in the pocono mountains in my youth. I loved going up there, fishing, shooting trap, hiking, running around with my dog. Being able to now host that experience for others is a dream come true!
When I was looking for a property, I really wanted one that I and my whole family could come stay at. I also wanted a space that people were thrilled to visit, with its beautiful large windows in the living room, it's modern design, and large interior it really felt cozy and spacious at the same time.
Having my entire family there, but also having them feel like we weren't crowding each other all weekend was very important. I love that it's a very open floor plan, but there are multiple living spaces in case people want to do a noisier activity downstairs, or watch tv.
Additionally, it's nestled perfectly within the woods, hidden in a far corner where there is less traffic, it has barely a neighbor in sight.
