FALL IS HERE IN THE POCONOS !

Charming country house on Lake Wallenpaupak.
This 2 bedroom cottage is perfect for a couple's retreat without the cost of extra bedrooms you will not use.
This house is in one of the best areas in the Poconos.

Fall in the Poconos is still warm enough to enjoy fishing, kayaking, hiking, on Lake Wallenpaupak or the surrounding lakes. Fairview Lake ( The smaller, quiet, serene lake) is just 10min from the house and has a public boat launch.
The house is just minutes from the beautiful, elevated Wallenpaupak Lake walk to take in the sunset. This is rapidly becoming a daily tradition on the lake walk.

The scenic, wooded roads are breathtaking to drive through in the fall.
Or stay inside, fire up the very large fireplace and spend a quiet evening by the fire on those crisp Fall evenings.

The Fall festivals in nearby Hawley, Narrowsburg, NY and Jim Thorpe are not to be missed. These areas range from 15- 40 min from the house.
The world class Woodloch Resort & Spa is 15-20min away in nearby in Hawley, PA.
3 Hammers Vineyard, among other top rated vineyards are not a far drive as well.
Great restaurants close by for a big country breakfast or nice dinner.
Micro-brewery & Indoor Golf down the road.

Mount Airy Casino is just 40 min. Kalahari Indoor water park-45 min.
Everything you would want to do in the Poconos this Fall plus more.

Have a perfect getaway this Fall in the Poconos.

Peaceful week close to the lake

We were able to book the trip at the last minute. Omar was extremely helpful and flexible. Excellent communications. Check-in process was smooth. The house was clean and has all the amenities we needed. Omar accommodated our request to check out a little later. Overall a very nice restful week. Will be staying again.

Great location

We enjoyed our stay and were happy with the accommodations. The location was central to all the sights we like to visit while in the area. The washer and dryer were a plus. The owner was quick to respond to messages and provided detailed information that was relevant to staying there. We would definitely stay here again!!

Perfect location. It’s a few minutes from where we could load our jet ski into the lake. Minutes from quick shops- take out food- quiet neighbors. We enjoyed our weekend stay! First time staying in the area. 10/10
