Guests will have the whole house to themselves during their stay except 2 Utility Closets. Guests will be able to let themselves in with a code via a smart lock and will have no interaction with the home owner. ◆◆◆Staying in the Pocono Mountains◆◆◆ If this is your first time visiting the Poconos, we want to ensure you understand what staying in the mountains entails. This house is nestled in the mountains, surrounded by trees and nature. As a result, you may encounter wildlife, as this is their home and we are merely guests. Wildlife may include flying insects, spiders, ants, squirrels, flying squirrels, mice, foxes, raccoons, opossums, skunks, snakes, turtles, coyotes, and black bears. Smaller creatures and insects can occasionally find their way inside depending on the outside conditions. We have monthly exterminator visits to minimize this, but being in the mountains, anything is possible. Additionally, please note that the mountain infrastructure differs from that of the city. Small wind or rain storms can occasionally cause power or internet outages in specific areas, including our home. Power outages may affect the water supply as we are on wells and the well pumps need power to work. Usually, these outages are restored within 8-10 hours, which is a quick turnaround given the weather conditions. For outages lasting less than 24 hours, no refund or compensation will be provided. For outages exceeding 24 hours, compensation will be issued on a case-by-case basis. Lastly, please be aware that extreme heat or cold waves can put stress on the house's heating or cooling systems, and these systems may struggle to keep up during very high or very low temperatures. ◆◆◆Summer Bookings◆◆◆ During Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend, this is our busiest season.

The form will ask for full names and ages of each guest, as well as vehicle and driver information, including the main registrant's license ID number and the plate numbers of all vehicles entering the community. Names on the forms must match the legal ID of the driver. ◆◆◆Pet Rules◆◆◆ If you are bringing your pet during your stay, please be aware of the following rules: Pet Fee: We will allow up to 3 pets to stay the fees are the following: $25 per stay per pet and $100 additional pet cleaning fee.

September 2026

We had such a wonderful stay and absolutely loved the house! The home is beautiful, comfortable, and very well kept, and the entire area is incredibly peaceful and quiet. We really enjoyed all the community amenities, especially the pool and games, which were a lot of fun for the whole family. One of my favorite parts of the stay was having coffee on the porch in the morning and enjoying the beautiful, peaceful surroundings. We also had lunch and dinner out on the balcony and absolutely loved it- it was such a relaxing setting. Justin was a wonderful host- very responsive, helpful, and communicative throughout our stay. We truly enjoyed our time here and made some beautiful family memories. We would definitely recommend this home and would happily stay again!

August 2026

The home itself met our expectations and was clean and comfortable. Unfortunately, the overall experience was affected by a refrigerator/freezer that was not maintaining safe temperatures when we arrived. We initially reported the refrigerator at approximately 55°F and the freezer at 25°F, but were told this was normal and that adding food would help it cool. The temperature continued to rise, and the handyman later confirmed there was an issue. We appreciate that the refrigerator issue was ultimately resolved and that an additional refrigerator was provided. However, this was a short two-night anniversary trip, and much of our first evening was spent dealing with the problem after traveling since early that morning. Communication could also have been more organized and professional. Information about community amenities and associated costs was unclear, and additional instructions, including a late-evening message regarding garbage, came throughout the stay rather than being clearly
