Thanks for taking a look at My Vacation Property Rental (MVP Rental). A bit about myself before the home. I've owned and been renting properties in the Pocono's Towamensing Trails community since 2011. Over that time and across my various properties, I've handled thousands of reservations and have developed the knowledge to deliver a great experience that is super easy and smooth. So enough about me, let's talk about this wonderful entertainment space.

This was my fourth property, purchased almost 10 years ago. I had a little fun with this home while doing the renovation. The spiral staircase, rustic wormhole oak floors, custom stained cabinets, granite counters, and natural wood elements give this home a unique modern feel while maintaining its Pocono cabin bones. There is a large area of undeveloped space to the side of the home where deer can usually be seen most days. Turkey, fox, and the occasional bear are also known visitors, in addition to the bald eagle and osprey which are often spotted overhead while fishing the lake.

The home is decorated with a minimalist feel with black and white prints used in conjunction with the natural woods. The kitchen is well stocked with cookware. The home has air conditioning, a gas fireplace, high speed Wi-Fi, and outdoor seating area with grill. All homes are smoke-free, and pet friendly provided appropriate pet fee has been paid.

All homes are located within the popular resort community of Towamensing Trails with many seasonal amenities, which use is included in your rental fee.
--190-acre spring fed lake with sandy beach
--community pool (seasonal, not heated, outdoor)
--clubhouse with restaurant
--boat rentals
--fishing dock
--playgrounds
--tennis
--pickleball
--basketball
--bocci ball
--horseshoes
--baseball/softball
--sand volleyball

The house is conveniently located within the community to allow for easy access to community amenities as well as other local attractions:

15-20 minutes
---Jim Thorpe
---Whitewater rafting
---Paintball
---Skiing
---Hickory Run SP
---Pocono Raceway
---Big Boulder Ski Area
---Golf
---H2O Waterpark
---Beltzville Lake

25-30 minutes
---Jack Frost Ski Area
---Camelback

---Mt Pocono
---Kalahari Waterpark

45 minutes
---Bethlehem
---Scranton Colleges
---Allentown
---Stroudsburg
---Wilkes Barre Colleges

2 hours
---Philly
---NYC

With the experience of hosting guests for more than ten years, across multiple properties, and thousands of groups, you can rest assured you will receive a professional experience. If one of those rare events happen, you will not be dealing with someone in a call center 1000 miles away, and it won’t be a two-hour drive before the owner can get there to address the problem.

Thanks again

Lovely home
The home worked wonderfully for our weekend getaway! Plenty of space, a well stocked kitchen, and a nice backyard with sitting area. The spiral staircase would definitely be a problem for someone with bad balance/larger size/limited mobility, but it was fine for us. My spouse, who is over 6ft, also had no issues with headspace walking around the loft, something he was worried about!

Towamensing Trails vacation
A very nice community with a quiet nature setting and deer and squirrels visiting us daily. Even though the weather did not permit us to use the pool or beach but once, it was nice getting out of the city and enjoyibg the natural beauty.

Perfect pet friendly cabin - great location!
Great location to explore Jim Thorpe and Hickory Run State Park (which is right down the street!). Well-appointed cabin with big yard/deck to explore - dogs loved it! We had plenty of rooms for 4 adults. Exactly as pictured. House is in a very quiet neighborhood with a lovely lake and amenities. We did not have time to use the amenities, but the lake view was very nice! If traveling with pets, check out nearby Boulder Tavern - we had a nice meal on the patio with the pups. Overall great pet friendly stay!

Amazing we have returned twice in 2 months
The home is cozy feels as if its your own. Clean, stocked with pots, pans plates etc. to be precise all necessary comforts. The deers make it an even better experience, they eat apples out of your hand if allowed from the fence line. We will be back over and over again. A must , must must for adults and kids!!

Highly Recommend!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The house was clean and well stocked with everything we possibly needed. Our pups enjoyed the fenced in yard and we loved seeing deer each day. The gas fireplace and provided hot cocoa was an added bonus. It is a convenient location to many attractions and our host was fabulous. We definitely recommend this house. And, if you have a chance, visit Woody's Country House Restaurant a few miles down the road.

Fabulous and Comfy!
I took my two daughters (almost 10 and 11) and their besties and our dog for a weekend away. The house is amazing! Great layout, incredibly comfortable beds, paper products onsite and an amazing fenced in huge back yard! The girls and I could roast our marshmellows and not worry about our dog! We were super close to everything and enjoyed the homey comforts after a day out. Would absolutely rent again.

Perfect!
This has been the perfect venue for our family’s early Thanksgiving Getaway! The cottage is so cozy, the decorating thoughtful and beautiful. The Master Suite was a hit, as were the downstairs bedrooms. The cozy kitchen/dining area were perfect for gathering and informal dining. The living room was perfect for lounging. And the fenced in yard was perfect for our dog. Thank you Will for being such a good communicator. The whole process was seamless!

Great dog-friendly cabin
The cabin was the perfect place for our “working vacation” in the Poconos. Close to hiking trails and our dogs loved the fenced in yard and spent most of their time outside looking for deer. The cabin was cozy and we enjoyed the fireplace as well. Definitely would rent again.
