The cottage was the perfect place for us, who were in the Poconos for a wedding. It was very clean, cozy and you can tell a lot of thought was put into making a great experience for their guests. We were greeted with sweet treats which was a pleasant surprise! I would definitely recommend staying here.

We had a relaxing two night stay at this cabin. It’s nestled in the woods and was very welcoming. It was super clean and had everything that we needed. The extra bonus of deer made our trip even more enjoyable. We would love to stay at this property again.

A cozy and lovingly-decorated cottage nestled among mature trees and moss-covered rocks, creating a magical feeling. The firepit was such a nice space. Everything felt like a home away from home. The host was super nice and made everything easy, secure, and comfortable. Would definitely consider for future stays .
Wonderful getaway! Very peaceful and relaxing. The owner is very accommodating to your needs whether you are looking for something in the kitchen— blender, coffee maker, pancake mix, popcorn, or looking to enjoy being outside with three seating areas, a grill, a firepit, outdoor lighting and even kayaks. Wildlife included as well! Highly recommend!
Our stay was short nice and quite. Looking forward to coming back soon. I left Rockman there to look after the place while I'm gone.

The weather didn’t cooperate, however, your place is super awesome! Our purpose was to take my niece to see the mountains. Being from the south, she was in awe of the wildlife here. We played games indoors and talked late into the night. Your place was a perfect cozy setting to create a wonderful memory bonding. I will definitely be back with my husband, Thank you so much!
