Guest Access

Cabin is not perfectly suited for infants and toddlers as the spiral staircase nor other aspects of the home are baby-proofed - we do allow young children, we just want you to understand the risks. Guests are required (by the community) to read and sign the Towamensing Trails Rules of Conduct through a DocuSign agreement before being given access to the community. We do ask Guest to leave a $150 cleaning fee for the Cleaners to pick updirectly. The cabin has to be put back in a certain way for the next guest. Thank you for understanding.

Notes

Our chalet is a smoke-free home. Up to 2 dogs allowed.

  • Lisa's home provides a fabulous trip down memory lane whether you're a child of the 50's, grew up watching Happy Days or love retro vibes! Such fun! Lisa has also thought of, and included, every 21st century convenience so you will be very comfortable and entertained.. It was lovely to spend time in nature in the beautiful Poconos and visit the historic town of Jim Thorpe with its steam railroad, historic homes, shops and restaurants which are always decorated for every season. This was a catch up weekend for lifelong friends and we loved it--especially for the opportunity it provided to eat in, and just sit around and talk whether inside or out. Lisa is a very kind, gracious and accommodating host who went above and beyond to make our weekend possible and special. Thank you

  • What a beautiful cottage! Every detail has been well thought out and Lisa was so friendly and helpful if we had a question. We were here for a train ride at Jim Thorpe and antique shopping. We thoroughly enjoyed both and the cottage is a great place to spend time and watch the deer too! I'd highly recommend a swap with them!

  • Thank you for staying Liza and Darrell! Jim Thorpe is a beautiful mountain town; so happy you were able to see it and ride the train. You are welcome back to our cabin anytime :-)

  • Lisa's chalet is just wonderful! We had a very relaxing stay surrounded by nature, animals and peace. The chalet is well equipped and even had a few board games which we enjoyed playing with our kids.

  • Lisa’s home is a lovingly styled Pocono vacation home with an 1950s theme. Immaculately clean and comfortable. The area is very quiet. We visited the area to visit some elderly relatives that live nearby and the location was perfect for us. Communication with Lisa was easy. I look forward to hosting Lisa in the future.

My husband Ben and I love adventure and exploring new places. We are non-smokers and very respectful of every home. We have traveled for years using Airbnb and understand how to create the perfect place for our guests. We also know how important it is to be great guests. We have two homes to offer for exchange. One is a cabin in the Pocono Mountains. Our primary home is in Bel Air Maryland and if you are interested in that home just message us to discuss timing etc. We can always stay with our kids if the exchange is right (that is why the calendars are not used in either home) There can be flexibility based on the exchange. Hiking, jungles, mountains, waterfalls and other nature-centered locations are what we enjoy most. We are not excited about cities as much. My husband and I may travel just the two of us or may also bring along 2 or 4 of our adult children depending on the location, accommodations, and time of year. Please feel free to contact us about any type of exchange as we have already done a couple exchanges and are obsessed with this type of travel and exploring new places!
