About this property

The Poet at Lake Harmony

Nestled by Lake Harmony's shore,
A 1940s cabin, restored and more.
With two cozy bedrooms, two bathrooms fine,
A kitchen where laughter meets good wine.

A living room warm, where comfort grows,
With a pull-out couch for extra doze.
A porch to unwind, fire pit’s warm glow,
Hot tub bubbles, evening’s soft flow.

Steps from the lake, bars, restaurants, and good cheer,
Big Boulder’s slopes are oh-so-near.
Come find a retreat, both timeless and true,
Where lake and mountain welcome you.

Spent the weekend at The Poet and only one word comes to mind, absolutely PERFECT. The place was immaculate, full with everything you would need. The hosts were very informative and response time was quick. Places to go out to eat were right down the street, but the best part for us was just sitting on the porch with a cup of coffee and taking in nature. Well worth it. Will be going back.

Perfect Hot Tub/Ski Cabin

The Poet is such a beautifully appointed place ridiculously close to Big Boulder while still maintaining a level of privacy. We had a wonderful weekend in this wonderful cabin. We highly recommend this property.

We had such a lovely stay at The Poet. The weather didn't cooperate, however it didn't matter, because we had everything we needed at the cabin. It was perfect for a cozy weekend indoors, and we even got outside for some walks, enjoying nature, and an evening camp fire. Which was a highlight. Everything was so wonderful, from the quick response from the owner, to the accommodations itself, but all the extras (coffee station, towels and linens, board games etc) that made us feel so welcomed, it really took it over the top. Definitely felt more like staying at an inn than a rental. Can't wait to visit again! Thanks so much for a memorable 25th anniversary!!

Our host was very responsive and friendly. Check in/out was easy. The house was so thoughtfully laid out. The kitchen had everything we could have possibly needed for cooking and it was beautifully arrranged. The towels were fabulous and there were so many of them! The shower was divine and the bed was super comfy. The parking spot in Jim Thorpe was such an amazing amenity! We can't wait to come back and stay again.

Everything inside and outside was perfect. All of the amenities made our visit even more enjoyable as we felt like we were home. The location is perfect. Everyone we met were so friendly and nice. Our host Brian could not have been moe accommodating. There are no negatives for this property. We would definitely stay here again and refer this property to our friends

What a gem! My wife and I enjoyed our first visit to Lake Harmony and couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. They have thought of everything to make your trip as enjoyable as possible. Kayaks, endless firewood, a crystal clean hot tub, and fully stocked kitchen (spices, cooking oil, coffee, creamer). We absolutely loved the place and have already recommended to family and friends.
