Lake Ariel Family Chalet

Welcome to our family Pocono home. We've been coming up to The Hideout for 5 years with our parents, siblings, and our children, and we want you to enjoy all that The Hideout and our house have to offer.

In the spring and autumn months you'll spend your waking hours out on the deck- regardless of how big your group is, there will be a seat for them. At night, enjoy some drinks around the propane fire pit, and on those crisper evenings, you can fire up the restaurant-grade outdoor propane heater. Summer is our favorite time to be at the Hideout because we can walk down the hill (about 10 minutes) and the kids can splash in the community pool and lake while we enjoy some beers on the beach. Winter months offer skiing and tubing on the hill just around the corner, and ice skating. Warm up by the fireplace when you're finished!

With 2 big living rooms, 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, you'll all have your own space!

Perfect Woodsy Getaway!

A comfortable, spacious home in a friendly and welcoming private community. Everything is just as described in the post (maybe even better than the pictures here— imagine tall trees in every direction!). We would definitely stay here again, in any season!

Relaxing stay in comfortable home in the Poconos

Our small group (2 families) had a wonderful and relaxing stay here. The house is spacious (3 levels) and peaceful. My 4 year old was so happy with all the toys and books! Most days we walked to the lovely lake beach to swim. The Tiki Bar was a great touch ;) Donovan is an excellent host - very easy communication. Thank you for such a great holiday!

Great Place

It was everything and more of what we expected. It was well stocked, very clean, electronic game system for the kids, plus board games. All the bedrooms were great as well as the kitchen, and everything worked. The owner Donovan was great to work with.

Beautiful, Clean Home - fun for all ages/seasons

We loved our visit to this property! From start to finish, our host Donovan promptly responded to any questions/needs. We loved the 3 levels of the home, which allowed for privacy and just a chance to have your own space. We had 3 different family units using the space...grandparents, and two young families with 2 children each. The HUGE porch was definitely a highlight with the gas heater and fireplace! We spotted some deer and turkeys right from the deck. So fun to enjoy the porch even when it was a little chilly at night. Home was meticulously clean and fully stocked with everything you could need to feel at home, prepare meals, and keep the kiddos entertained. Our children LOVED the new toys! The beds were so comfy, each and every one. I slept great despite rarely getting a good night's sleep when away from my own home. It truly is a home away from home! Don't delay, BOOK! You'll love it! Can't wait to come back!
