Great little house that’s very close to everything. We had a wonderful stay and the property managers were excellent with communication. The check in and check out process was incredibly easy and the host even brought us additional towels during our stay. Absolutely would recommend a stay here. We will be back.

The house was the perfect location for our ski trip to Jack Frost and Big Boulder. It is located on the same grounds as the Split Rock Resort, so very close to the amenities there that are open to the public, including the indoor water park. The house met all of our needs for a family of four, including 2 young children. The only thing is the heating didn’t work on the bottom floor when we were there, but I’m sure that will be fixed. Overall, we had a great stay.

Only thing was the outside wasn’t too inviting and only one room had AC. And the sauna wasn’t working. And neighbors dogs was none stop barking.

Overall we liked the stay very much. The building itself was in rough shape outside. There was a rotted facia board that required the gutter to just lay on the ground. It looked bad when getting inside. Inside there were a few little things. Light bulbs that were not working properly at different locations. The lower floor was very humid. I feel like it actually needed a humidifier or two down there to get rid of the humidity. We enjoyed the stay but just could have been a bit better. Thanks for listening

We had an amazing experience at The Bear Cub! This getaway location offered a wide range of exciting activities nearby, including the Pocono Raceway Stock Car Racing, Paint Ball, Pocono Outlets, Hawk Falls Trail, and even a train ride in Jim Thorpe. Bringing our beloved 2-year-old dog along was a true delight, and we were thrilled that the place was pet-friendly. The fact that every restaurant we visited also welcomed our furry friend was a huge relief and added to the overall enjoyment of our trip.
The community surrounding The Bear Cub was fantastic, and we loved taking morning walks through the area. The sight of ferns cascading by the road was incredibly refreshing and added to the tranquil atmosphere. The convenience of having a kitchen was a definite plus, as it allowed us to prepare some meals at our leisure.
To our delight, the host provided a selection of games for us to enjoy. Our 12 and 18-year-old kids were instantly drawn to Connect 4 and had a blast playing it. We also brought along a deck of Uno cards, which provided additional fun and entertainment during our stay.
Although we did not go to the waterpark nearby, that would be a plus as well. The house is located near a golf course for those who love to play and has a great shop called the Hub within walking distance.
I would recommend this to any family that wants to get away with their pet(s) and have a great place to stay and enjoy.

We enjoyed our stay and would give 4.5 Stars if that was an option. The communication with Vicki was great and were able to check out later on Saturday than originally planned as she let us know plans had changed for incoming renter.
The kitchen is nicely updated and upstairs is roomy. It is a split level and so they are stairs to navigate and back deck has lots of stairs, so just be aware.
Some wear and tear (normal use) does show, and a few small things that are stocked in other units, such as hair dryer and serving bowls were not provided. Not a big deal but something to be aware off. Some bulbs were burned out but there were replacements available for those we could reach.
Again, we very much enjoyed the unit and feel it was a very good value overall.

The property was very convenient to a local event we attended. The owner was very accommodating allowing us to check in a little earlier so we had time to get ready. The property was clean and felt like home away from home!

The pictures don't do it justice. The main floor great room is wonderful for relaxing, dining, playing cards or a puzzle.
The lower floor bedrooms are beautifully decorated and I loved the 2 spacious bathrooms.
We saw a deer and a beaver in the woods out back.
The host was very gracious providing snacks for us and our dog!

Inside was very nice and updated. The outside front and back could use a little improvement. Front is not very inviting. Could use landscaping in front also full of cobwebs. The back deck could use painting. But overall nice.

We stayed Christmas night, and the place was great. It has been in the single digits and teens for days, but the home was warm. The bedrooms were comfortable, but the highlight was the upper floor with a nice kitchen and comfy sofa. We did not try the sauna :(

We planned a trip to the Poconos to celebrate two family members’ birthdays. We had a busy day of activities and opted to stay overnight rather than drive back tired. The accommodations were comfortable, clean and appropriate for our group that ranged in age from 1 to 65. I would stay here again.

We had a ladies getaway for my mothers birthday. Prior to our trip the host Vikki was attentive and kept in communication with me regarding our stay. She also provided us with great tips on what we could do during our stay at lake Harmony. The day of our trip Vikki went out of her way and got my mom a birthday card. She was very personable and allowed us to check in early and even offered us a later check out if we needed it. Overall, the experience was great and we would definitely stay there again as it was clean, peaceful and relaxing! Thanks Vikki for everything!
