NOTE: Dock is removed during the off season (Oct-April dates are unknown and based on weather and availability of the dock company)
COMMUNITY AMENITIES:
A Pocono Country Place is a beautiful community with 2 lakes, 1 public swimming beach, 4 outdoor swimming pools, tennis courts, basketball courts, mini golf and other amenities. Amenity badges are required to use any public amenities. Badges can be purchased during your stay for $12/person/day for individuals over the age of 3.
Although our home is lakefront, swimming is at your own risk. We highly suggest if you would like to enjoy swimming to drive just a few minutes to the main section of the community at the dedicated swimming lake and beach where life guards are present. From the property you can boat and kayak or use any type of non-motorized water vessel, you can wade in the shoreline water where you can still see your feet, you can catch-and-release fish and enjoy the scenery. The community maintains this beach/swimming area very nicely and can be enjoyed with beach chairs (provided in the box by the hot tub), picnic blanket, sand toys and swimming. You may use the area already portioned off for swimming with their floating dock to jump right in! Go make a splash! Also at the beach is a pool, café, playground, tennis courts, basketball courts and baseball field.
Community has 4 Outdoor Pools which are open weekends only from Memorial day to late June and Mid August to Labor day. Pools open daily from mid-June to mid-August. Located within a 5 minute drive to the new K Pool built in 2023. Splash pad for the little ones and a large pool for the family to enjoy. There is also a bathhouse, tennis and basket courts and a playground.
We make no guarantees that community amenities will be available during your stay. The availability of the amenities and the days and hours of operation are at the discretion of the association. Hours and days of operation are typically provided at the beginning of each week. Refunds will not be provided if community amenities are not available as we have no control over closures for any circumstances such as, but not limited to, weather, staffing, Covid, etc.
We are a family friendly home. Parents or other individuals are not permitted to reserve the house on behalf of another person or group.
The person making the reservation must be at least 26 years of age. We do not accept any reservations for parties or proms.
COMMUNITY REQUIREMENT:
Our Community and Township Ordinances require the following when you make a reservation.
All guests (adults and children) and vehicles are required to be registered on the community registration form. All persons driving a vehicle will need to provide a valid and printed copy of their vehicle registration and Drivers license.
Upon booking we will send you an email to complete electronically a lease agreement, provide a copy of an ID, and community registration form. Only the persons listed on the lease agreement and community forms are allowed to be at the property. We can be fined and even lose our license to rent our property if anyone misrepresents the number of people and ages of those at the property.
The community registration fee of $50 has been included in the price. There is a $75 late fee for forms not completed within 3 days prior to arrival.
Our cleaning fee includes: Cleaning of the house, Hot Tub cleaning & chemical balancing, Laundry for towels and linens.
Check out: All dishes are washed or placed in the dishwasher and started, all trash is placed in the trash bins in the garage, windows, doors, hot tub and boats are closed and locked. Towels and Linens can be left in the respective rooms.
Community quite hours are from 10pm to 8am.
WILDLIFE:
This is a home in the woods, therefore, outside you will likely see bugs or furry critters, such as ducks, geese, raccoons, deer and even bears. We do our very best to maintain the property with regular pest control, but due to the surroundings, if doors are left open, or food is left outside the house, critter curiosity is inevitable. Please keep doors closed, the outdoors clean and notify us personally if you have any visitors in this regard so we can address the issue promptly. PLEASE, do not feed our beautiful wildlife - it does more harm than good!
Requirement:
We want you to be completely comfortable here and our goal is to make your stay MUCH BETTER THAN EXPECTED from start to finish! To ensure an enjoyable experience, feel free to ask me about anything you are unsure of about. If you are traveling for a special occasion please let us know.
When booking and/ or canceling your stay, you hereby agree to not write a bad review without first making us aware of any issues that you are having, and allowing us to fix the issue(s). Thank you!

Meet The Host
Jennifer
Owner
I am Jen your host. While vacationing in the Poconos we had such a wonderful experience we decided to purchase our own homes and share them with others. We enjoy vacationing in our home as much as we can and some of the photos shown are from our own vacations with our families. We purchased our first home in 2006 and choose to manage our property so we can provide our guests with a personal experience. We are knowledgeable about the area and can help you plan an unforgettable vacation! I lead a very busy life, working full time and managing a home with 4 active children! Although I have a busy life, I am available to you any time day and night. We love our homes and hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
