About this property

Summer Escape. 4 FREE LAKE PASSES! Best pool location at Midlake. Great views!

Wake up to beautiful views of Big Boulder Mountain and the lake from this cozy 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo. Summer here is all about lake breezes, outdoor adventures, and slowing down into Pocono life at an easy, relaxed pace.

Spend your days swimming, hiking nearby trails at Hickory Run State Park, visiting Pocono Organics, or enjoying the shops and restaurants in Jim Thorpe. You’re also just a short walk to a lakefront restaurant with live music on weekends — a great spot to unwind after a day outside.

This is a great fit for families or couples looking for a comfortable home base with access to both nature and local attractions.

Bedroom 1: King bed
Bedroom 2: Two double beds

Would not hesitate to book again!

We were very happy with our stay. The room was clean, had plenty of space and the beds and couch were comfortable. The location was fantastic and views were awesome. Property manager gave us recommendations for activities and restaurants that all turned out to be hits! We will look to return at some point, but next time with an extra night or two added on

We really liked the location of the condo. Perfect spot near the pool, nice view of the lake, and great walking trail. The visiting wildlife was fun. Spacious condo, two nice sized bedrooms, comfy living area and nicely equipped kitchen. Much nicer area than the area around Lake Harmony, very crowded. Wish we'd stayed longer.

Nice quit 4 day stay

Sharon the property manager was on spot! Very friendly and accommodating. The TV was a work in progress, there were 3 remotes and only one was useful. We had a rainy day that we needed the TV to entertain us. The condo was nice our view of the lake was blocked by the pool building. The neighbors were friendly and there was a nice walking path.

Pocono Race Weekend Getaway

This property was everything we had hoped it would be. Close enough to New York City, that we could sight see there. Located in a quiet Condo community, with a pool and a hot tub. Situated on a beautiful lake. An ideal spot to be able to getaway and enjoy some peace and quiet. But the main reason we liked it was because it was only 15 minutes from Pocono Speedway and the NASCAR Races. Easy commute. The owner was very easy to work with and very responsive in communicating. I would highly recommend!!!

Mid lake

The property location was very good. Some of the appliances need upgrading. The oven didn’t light .. The bathroom door would not shut. I didn’t feel there was enough supplies there as far as toilet paper or cleaning products.in an emergency..

Cute

The location was convenient but the second bathroom had freezing cold water so it was like not having a second shower. We definitely wouldn’t have choose the place if we knew. The scanning of a QR code to get in was also not ideal.

About the host

Hosted by Sharon Maroldi

Host profile image
We live in New Jersey with our two daughters and absolutely love spending time in the Poconos. We're always excited to share tips about the area because we think the community we're part of is really special—it's pretty, family-friendly, and close to so many fun things to do. We also love hearing from guests about the adventures they discover while they're there!

Why they chose this property

We absolutely love this condo—it truly feels like a little getaway every time we’re there. It’s a ground-floor unit, so you can step right out onto the patio and straight over to the pool and hot tub, which are just a few feet away. It’s incredibly convenient, especially for families with kids. From the dining room, living room, and the patio, you’ll enjoy beautiful views of the lake, which always adds a sense of calm and vacation vibes.

One of our favorite features is the pebbled walking path just behind the condo. It winds along the lake and leads you right to Big Boulder Ski Resort—perfect for a peaceful stroll in any season. In the summer, you can take advantage of swimming, kayaking, and other water sports at Big Boulder Lake. Fun fact: the lake actually supplies the water used to make snow at the ski resort in winter!

The condo itself has a fun and modern feel. I’m not sure if it was designed by a decorator, but the colors and patterns give it a unique and stylish personality. It’s cozy, clean, and just feels like a treat to stay in.

What makes it really special is the blend of natural surroundings and community amenities. You’re nestled among mature trees with grassy areas and walking paths that give it a peaceful, woodsy feel—yet you still have access to a large pool, the lake, and everything the area has to offer. It’s a place we genuinely enjoy, and we hope you will too.

What makes this property unique

There are a lot of condos and some of the ones from Midlakes rent on this same site! But, my condo is direct walk-out to the pool just steps away which was a huge draw for me, with kids. Location! Plus, I just love the decor! When I first saw this condo on Zillow I loved the dark wood cabinets the kitchen, the fun blue walls in the master bedroom and the big plaid couch in the living room. We toured 4-5 other units when we went to look at this one and my husband, daughter and I were just drawn to this one and loved the design and location. We hope you will, too!
