About this property

CozyCottageGetaway;PetFriendly;FencedYard;Lake;Beach;Pool;JimThorpe;WaterPKs,SKI

Thank you for considering My Vacation Property Rental (MVP Rental) for your upcoming trip to the Poconos. I have owned and been hosting groups in this lake community since 2011. Over the years, across multiple properties, I have hosted thousands of groups, and have the knowledge to deliver a relaxing retreat from today's fast paced life, that is simple and easy. Book; we exchange a few messages; your trip is complete. If you want to chat more I am here to answer any questions you may have. Your pets will love the fully fenced back yard too.

I purchased this home over 10 years ago and fully renovated it. I added the loft, the spiral staircase, second floor on suite bath, custom kitchen, and unique cabin grade hardwood flooring. The home has a bit of a mountain modern feel with its design. The natural wood accents, rustic flooring, and black and white prints give it a bit of a loft or urban cabin feel. The kitchen is well stocked with cookware, dishes, plates, wine glasses, both keurig, and auto drip coffee maker, and dishwasher.

The home has air conditioning, a gas fireplace, high speed Wi-Fi, and outdoor seating area with grill and is pet friendly provided the appropriate pet fee has been paid.

There is a large area of undeveloped space to the side of the home where deer can usually be seen most days. Turkey, fox, and the occasional bear are also known visitors, in addition to the bald eagle and osprey which are often spotted overhead while fishing the lake.

Lovely house and location, few issues with listing

I stayed with a friend for 4 days. The house is lovely, the location is great, however there was no AC (I would not have stayed in a house that didn’t have AC) and the coffee maker didn’t work. I also didn’t love the checkout expectations for cleaning everything (including stripping all beds and loading the washer, not possible with all the linens and towels). We paid a lot, and I expect more.

Fabulous and Comfy!

I took my two daughters (almost 10 and 11) and their besties and our dog for a weekend away. The house is amazing! Great layout, incredibly comfortable beds, paper products onsite and an amazing fenced in huge back yard! The girls and I could roast our marshmellows and not worry about our dog! We were super close to everything and enjoyed the homey comforts after a day out. Would absolutely rent again.

Perfect!

This has been the perfect venue for our family’s early Thanksgiving Getaway! The cottage is so cozy, the decorating thoughtful and beautiful. The Master Suite was a hit, as were the downstairs bedrooms. The cozy kitchen/dining area were perfect for gathering and informal dining. The living room was perfect for lounging. And the fenced in yard was perfect for our dog. Thank you Will for being such a good communicator. The whole process was seamless!

Quite, comfortable, and accommodating

I stayed with extended family (4 adults and 2 children) for more than one month, and we enjoyed this comfortable home. It is a cozy home, but with 3 bedrooms plus a loft area, there are still enough areas to spread out when needed. The kitchen is fully stocked with plenty of pots, pans, and utensils for cooking, including some basic essentials for cooking (salt, pepper, etc.) The big back deck is great for hanging out, bbq'ing, and watching all of the deer that wander around the woods. Will, the owner, was very accommodating and attentive. We did have a plumbing issue while we were there, and he had people out to fix it as soon as possible, and everything was dealt with smoothly. Will was easy to work with and easy to get a hold of. We weren't able to take advantage of any of the amenities due to the season as well as Covid, but we enjoyed walking around the quiet neighborhoods as well as hiking in some of the nearby state parks which were very fun and also suitable for our kids as well. We will consider this area again.

Weekend Getaway

The house was just as pictured and very clean. The location is great and only a 10 minite drive away from some great hiking trails. The fenced in yard was a big bonus and our dog kived it. The community felt safe and quiet. Will was very responsive and attentive, will definitly look here when planning our next stay in the Poconos!

Cozy Cabin Memories

What a wonderful and relaxing experience my husband and I and our two adult kids had at this super cozy and very clean cottage! We all highly recommend this place, and will plan our next gathering here. My favorite spot was in the family room where we all snuggled into the comfortable couch in front of the fireplace and caught up or watched movies together. There was also plenty of room in the kitchen for all of us to work together during meal prep without bumping into one another. Another highlight was the large fenced backyard where we never had to stress about the dogs running around since it was completely enclosed (down to the ground and under the patio). No possible way to escape.

Lovely home

The home worked wonderfully for our weekend getaway! Plenty of space, a well stocked kitchen, and a nice backyard with sitting area. The spiral staircase would definitely be a problem for someone with bad balance/larger size/limited mobility, but it was fine for us. My spouse, who is over 6ft, also had no issues with headspace walking around the loft, something he was worried about!

Perfect pet friendly cabin - great location!

Great location to explore Jim Thorpe and Hickory Run State Park (which is right down the street!). Well-appointed cabin with big yard/deck to explore - dogs loved it! We had plenty of rooms for 4 adults. Exactly as pictured. House is in a very quiet neighborhood with a lovely lake and amenities. We did not have time to use the amenities, but the lake view was very nice! If traveling with pets, check out nearby Boulder Tavern - we had a nice meal on the patio with the pups. Overall great pet friendly stay!
