About the host
Hosted by Patrick
We fell in love with the Poconos and wanted to share a piece of it with travelers looking to slow down and unplug. Our place is the kind of spot we'd want to stay in ourselves — warm, tidy, and full of little touches that make it feel like a getaway rather than just a rental. We put real care into the details, from the cozy living space under the wood-beamed ceiling to the local recommendations we share with every guest.
Whether you're coming up for a quiet weekend, a family gathering, or a basecamp for hiking, skiing, or exploring the lakes, we want you to feel completely at home. We're responsive, easy to reach, and genuinely happy to help — but we'll also give you the space to enjoy your stay your way. Most of our guests tell us the home feels even better in person than in the photos, and that's exactly the experience we work hard to deliver.
Why they chose this property
Pocono Summit hits a sweet spot — tucked away in the woods, but minutes from the lakes, hiking trails, and ski resorts. You can spend the morning on a quiet trail or out on the water, grab lunch in town, and be back at the house in time for a nap by the fire.
It's also peaceful in a way that's hard to find — pine-scented air, quiet nights, and stars you don't get back home. That's why we chose it, and why guests keep coming back.
What makes this property unique
Our place blends rustic Pocono charm with the comforts that make a getaway actually feel like one. The wood-beamed ceiling, warm lighting, and curated artwork give it character you won't find in a cookie-cutter rental, while the open layout makes it just as easy to host a big family dinner as it is to curl up on the sectional for a movie night. We've put real thought into the details — from the cozy dining nook to the little touches that make guests feel taken care of the moment they walk in. It's the kind of home that photographs well, but somehow feels even better in person.
