Lakefront Lodge, Hot Tub, Private Dock, Kayaks in Season
Welcome to The Lakefront Lodge! We’re thrilled to invite you to the ultimate Poconos lakefront getaway! Whether you're here to relax or explore, this is the perfect retreat for all four seasons. Gather with friends and family, unwind in the hot tub, or enjoy some quality time by the fire pit under the stars.
Private keyless entry. Please note that our team is available 24/7 to ensure your ultimate experience.
Located directly on a serene, 310-acre private lake in the Pocono Mountains that is fed by natural springs and offers a delightful environment for fishing and breathtaking scenery. The area is surrounded by state game lands and water conservation areas, providing a contrasting experience that is peaceful and calming. The lake's tranquil waters are encircled by trees and generational private residences.
Indulge in swimming, power boating, water skiing, tubing, canoeing, and kayaking along the four-mile shoreline. The lake's varying depths and underwater structures make it a paradise for anglers, offering opportunities to catch smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, pickerel, perch, catfish, crappie, bluegills, and sunfish.
Guests have access to the entire home and property with the exception of 1 locked closet in the basement.
Embrace lake life with peaceful days spent paddling, casting a line, lounging in one of the many outdoor areas, or exploring local attractions. As night falls, take a dip in the hot tub or cozy up around the fire pit for quality time with friends and family.
-After your booking is complete, we will send you a link to our extensive guidebook of activities, restaurants, etc.
INTERIOR Inside you will find endless lake views from every room. This three-story home features 2 living room areas, 2 bedrooms, and 2 full bathrooms. The kitchen has all you need to cook your favorite vacation meal. Head to the basement for movie and game night. Play on the xbox, basketball hoop, or the mini combo table with air hockey, pool, and foosball. This space is very family friendly!
BEDS As you wind down for the evening in one of the comfortable bedrooms, you will find each is furnished with soft linens and cozy bedding for a restful night's sleep. The primary bedroom has a queen, a pull-out, and a 65” tv. The second bedroom has a bunk bed with a queen and a twin. Both bedrooms are located on the top floor. The basement has a pull-out couch, and a 65”tv. The pull-out couches comfortably sleep two additional guests each.
EXTERIOR Take a paddle on the lake with our kayaks, or in the colder months, head to nearby ski mountains for some adventure. Sit back and relax in one of the many furnished outdoor areas- the decks (that’s right, we have 2), the patio, your own private dock, the fire pit or in the hot tub. Great fishing opportunities to catch smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, pickerel, perch, catfish, crappie, bluegills, and sunfish (catch and release). Kayak around the islands – a great place to explore undisturbed nature and wildlife (fish, frogs, turtles, birds).

Perfect Location, Great House. We loved sitting on the dock every night watching the sun set over the mountains after a long day of kayaking and fishing. Everything was quite, beautiful, and very relaxing.

Clean, nice and noisy.
Very nice home and very clean. The yard and access to the lake were great. We had one problem which was taken care of immediately after one phone call. One thing that we couldn’t tell from the pictures is the close proximity to the neighbors. Our “quiet” 3 day vacation turned out to be anything but. Trees and brush were being cleared from the house 1 over from ours. Chain saws were blaring for 9 hours. We couldn’t hear each other talk. I understand that has nothing to do with the property but a heads up would have been nice, we could have rescheduled our days. The next day there were workers at the house next door. We could hear all their conversations. The irony of this is that there are noise sensors around the property so we would be quiet! There is no privacy at all in the back yard. Also the camera on the tree looking right into the living area was unnerving. The family really did enjoy the fishing from the dock and the kayaks. The lily pads were in bloom and beautiful. Our stay would have been really nice if not for the noise.

Lovely lakefront location
Amazing location with a beautiful view. Great spot for fishing right off the dock. Very quiet, lots of birds to see as well. Communication was excellent and immediate. Also appreciated the recommendations- there are several excellent spots in the area for food/beer.

Cozy Gettaway
We had 4 adults 4 kids under 9 and the hot tub was the highlight of the kids stay. Even us adults got to have some peace in the hot tub once we got the kids watching a movie! Plenty of space amongst the levels of the house to not feel as though we were on top of eachother. The kids even played on the frozen lake in the snow!

Cozy & Charming
The house was exactly as advertised, and my family loved our visit. We fished from the dock, kayaked on the lake, hiked, read in the hammock, played pool, relaxed in the hot tub, and enjoyed evening card games and movie night. The kayaks and row boat were a huge hit, we were so thankful to enjoy them during unseasonably warm autumn weather! We didn’t utilize the fire pit (high fire risk/dry conditions during our visit), but the fire pit area was lovely. But for one dinner out we prepared all of our meals, and there were plenty of cooking and food prep supplies. I especially enjoyed the coffee provided. There were many thoughtful touches, such as shampoo and conditioner in the shower, throw blankets on the couches, and a dog bed for our Oreo. I would absolutely recommend a stay here - my 10 year old proclaimed it “the best house ever!” and is already asking when we can go back.

A relaxing stay with a beautiful view
My family stayed at the lake house and had a wonderful time! Spent a lot of time fishing on the lake, enjoying the downstairs room with basketball and xbox, doing puzzles and playing games upstairs, and of course grilling and the hot tub. Sitting in the hot tub at night watching the stars was really special.
Christianne answered all of our questions and responded to our requests really fast. We found the house in great condition and exactly matching the description. Would definitely stay there again.
If there was a single downside, as mentioned in the listing, there are some ruts in the road outside the house that make it a little bit dicey if you're in a sedan. Other than that, it was a great weekend getaway.
