About this property

"Lakefront heaven for families"

Regardless of the season, a sunset-filled getaway awaits you at Arrowhead Lake in the Poconos. Whether it's a glass of wine on the oversized deck, an early-morning paddle around the 260 acre lake, a soak in the hot tub, an afternoon game of cornhole, some ice fishing and ice skating on the frozen lake or a quiet read by the fireplace- this retreat is an ideal setting for your next family adventure.

Our 4 bedroom, waterfront home is ready to host! The kitchen is prepped with everything you could possibly need for a family dinner. There are brand new countertops and floors (2022). The 4 cozy bedrooms on the main floor of the home are outfitted with new mattresses (2022) and all bathrooms were recently renovated (2020). There is a brand new gas fireplace (2022) in the Living Room to take the chill off those winter days playing games at the oversized Dining Room Table.

The lower level of the home has fantastic views of the lake, a coloring table loaded with supplies for the little ones, air hockey, foosball, books & a huge selection of games for all ages. There is strong wifi in the house and all the TV's are outfitted with Firesticks/Roku. A DVD player and a large selection of movies round out the inside activities.

The lakeside firepit is where we like to spend time with friends, enjoying a fire & making smores. In summer, plan for a game of cornhole followed by some fun on the pedal boat or kayaks. Fish for Bass off the new dock (2022), float away the afternoon on one of the numerous tubes and rafts. There is even some fishing gear available your use and enjoyment.

In the fall, indulge in an afternoon paddle around the lake & pick a local hike with the most incredible foliage. In winter, once the lake freezes, try your luck and bundle up for some ice fishing or ice skating right in front of the house.

In EVERY season, you are certain to enjoy the AMAZING sunsets, sunrises & night-time sky right from our oversized 3-tiered deck loaded with seating. You also might want to consider taking in that amazing sky while soaking in the hot tub... All of these seats are front and center to the amazing show that the clear mountain sky provides every day.

A great house to stay in!
I want to start out by saying that before, during, and after our stay, the host Jennifer was amazing! She was wonderful to communicate with and was very flexible and accommodating with us! The house was probably the cleanest vacation rental we have ever stayed in. The kitchen was fully stocked and we were able to cook several nice meals for our group of 8 during our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit. Our only complaint was that we didn’t come when it was warmer out so we can enjoy the lake a bit more! We all said that we would definitely come back and stay again!

Great time
We had a wonderful time at your beautiful home. We enjoyed floating on the tubes and kayaking in the lake. There was so much to do to keep you busy the whole time. House is well equipped with everything you could need. Jen is a great host and made everything come together for a great experience. Looking forward to next summer.

Perfect Quaint & Cozy Lakehouse for the Whole Family
Our stay was wonderful! We had a big group with small kids; it was perfect for us - plenty of space, esp. in the kitchen/living area, and the downstairs game room was ideal for the kids, who had a blast playing down there. They loved all the games (tons of options + an air hockey table) and never got bored. Jen provided everything we needed so it truly felt like home, including a basket of s’mores supplies as an extra special treat to make by the outdoor fire pit, a very sweet touch! The large dining table was great for family meals for our big group. The kitchen was stocked with pots, pans, and supplies - all very clean, as was the entire house; the bathrooms were immaculate! The location was beautiful, right on the lake! We came at the end of winter; there is a terrific sledding hill just a short walk away, and popular ski resorts, nature trails, shopping, groceries, and outlets are all within a 15-25 min drive. We already want to return in the summer to take more advantage of the gorgeous outside area and the lake! From the time we booked the rental, through the check-in/check-out process, everything was very simple and went smoothly. The Internet and heat worked well, and Jennifer was extremely helpful and very responsive, providing lots of tips, advice, and answering all our questions. She was an amazing host and definitely went the extra mile to make our stay comfortable and ensure we had everything we needed. We can’t wait to stay here again! Highly recommended!!!

Fantastic winter lake weekend!
This was the perfect property for a weekend getaway in the Poconos. Plenty of room for two families, excellent play room downstairs for kids to hang out, stocked kitchen, etc. The owner was extremely responsive throughout the weekend and couldn’t have been more helpful. The location is excellent; we skied at Jack Frost and enjoyed coming back to beautiful lake views. Can’t imagine how great it is in the summer! Would definitely book again.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Shea-Schwacke

Host profile image
Hi! Welcome to our little slice of mountain heaven! We have had such an amazing time here with our kids, their friends and our grown-up friends that we thought to share some of the magic with you all. The Poconos is really a gem of a place, it has something for everyone. We hope that you have an opportunity to take advantage of some of it's charm & serenity. -Jen & Bill-

Why they chose this property

When we were looking for a place in the Poconos, we really never thought we would end up here in this house. It had been on the market for some time and definitely needed some help. The "Joy's of Homeownership" is a whole different concept when it applies to something other than your primary home! We have made strategic upgrades over the time we have owned this place, it's pretty special to us. You will have an extra special time while you are here with your friends & family!

What makes this property unique

I have always thought that having a finished lower level of the house was the key to 'group trip success'. Letting the kids have their own space while adults can be upstairs was a big win for us. Having the lake as your backyard is a pretty FANTASTIC thing! Take advantage of it. Use the kayaks & floats. When it's Summer and a breeze comes in off the lake, open the windows for instant 'mountain AC'. In winter, bring a book, make a fire in the fire pit and watch the deer cross the frozen lake. Or sit toasty warm by the fire and watch folks ice fish. They are a committed group! I always like to walk through the community in winter when its super quiet. The cruch of new snow, the peacefulness - just shouldn't be missed.
