Family&PetRetreat-2GameRms-FencedYd-Arcade-NearSki-WaterPks-JimThorpe-Raft-RaceW

Thanks for taking a look at My Vacation Property Rental (MVP Rental). I've owned and been renting homes in this Pocono resort community since 2011. Over that time, I've handled thousands of reservations, received over 500 5 Star reviews, and developed the knowledge to offer a retreat from today’s fast paced life that both you and your pets will enjoy. Having multiple game room spaces, your family will always find something to do, whether the arcade machine in the finished basement, or basketball shooter on the loft, they will be occupied. If you’re a pet lover, you’ll probably feel better about giving your dog the fully fenced in back yard than you will giving your kids the game room spaces. The wire mesh goes from top rail to the ground. We have never had a reported escape, but deer often jump it to graze in the yard.

What a wonderful time!
We planned a little vacation to celebrate my daughter’s graduation from college. We had such a good time. The house is beautiful and fully equipped. The basement full of games made the stay. We all had such a great time playing pool and ping pong. I love this place and would definitely go back!

This rental was the perfect place for our family getaway. The kids loved the arcade room and enjoyed playing with the various games throughout the evening. The house was clean and had a cozy vibe to it. The neighborhood was quiet and easily reachable via major roadways.

Pocono Stay
We had a great time here even though it rained all 3 days! We didn’t get to enjoy the backyard because of the rain but the fenced in yard was wonderful for our dog. We really enjoyed the game room especially our adult sons. Overall it was a pleasant experience.

game room is so much fun
House is exactly as advertised. There was plenty of room for the 6 of us and our dog, but could have easily handled a larger group. The fenced in backyard was great for running the dog around. If the weather was nicer we would have spent much more time out there. The key to the house is the game room in the basement. very high quality games that had the kids and adults entertained the entire weekend. Will the owner was very responsive when we had questions about the fireplace. i would highly recommend staying here if visiting the poconos.

Wonderful Stay!
We had an amazing weekend. There were two adults, three teenagers, and two doggies and everyone enjoyed their time at the house. We found the house to be very clean and spacious enough for all of us. The dogs absolutely loved the fenced-in backyard to run around and play in the snow. The kiddos loved the basement with all the fun games. The owner, Will, was very communicative and even helped us to check in a little early due to some bad weather (which we really appreciated). We would love to return in the future for another wonderful Poconos adventure!

Surprise family get away
Surprised my husband with a weekend get away with mother-in-law, Daughter, son-in-law and granddaughter, and family pet (Otis, Great Dane)…met son, daughter-in-law, grandson in Jim Thorpe for a train ride Saturday. Friday night we ate at Baby Boomers which was 6 minutes away and returned Saturday for breakfast!!! So delicious and all enjoyed the chef’s cooking & large portions. Dinner reservations Saturday night at Macaluso’s 20 minutes away was just as delicious. We had more than enough room plus Otis had enough room to run in the enclosed back yard. We played all the games in the basement enjoying each other’s company. Thank you Will for the opportunity my husband said he will never be able to beat the experience.
