GUEST ACCESS
The house is yours: all 3 bedrooms, the 2-story game room, the deck with hot tub and the fire pit yard. Self check-in with a smart lock; we send check-in instructions 48 hours before arrival and your door code 24 hours before. Park in the driveway, room for up to 5 cars. All bedrooms are upstairs. The beach, lake, kayaks and community pools need Emerald Lakes amenity passes from the community office.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD
Your fall base in Emerald Lakes, a wooded lake community in Long Pond, with the main community beach a 2-minute walk from the door (beach season is summer). On rainy days, Kalahari Indoor Waterpark is about 4.5 miles away and Great Wolf Lodge about 9.9 miles. Race fans have Pocono Raceway about 6.7 miles out, Mount Airy Casino Resort and its golf course are about 8 miles, and Pocono Premium Outlets sit about 8.7 miles away. Expect woods, not sidewalks: you will want a car.

GETTING AROUND
You will need a car: the house is rural and the community speed limit is 25 mph. The driveway fits up to 5 cars. The main community beach is a 2-minute walk. For groceries, ShopRite, Weis Market and ALDI are the nearby stores.

- Please be aware that a Burn Ban may be announced at any time by the community. While the fire pit is one of the key highlights of this property, it’s crucial to follow all burn ban regulations strictly. Failure to do so may result in fines from the community, which guests will be responsible for. We will keep you informed in real time should any such announcements occur during your stay.
- Booking party must be age 25+, and must be present at the home for the duration of the stay.
- For VRBO or direct bookings, please note that even if a cancellation qualifies under the cancellation policy, the 10% payment processing fee is non-refundable. This is due to the fact that we use external payment processors like Stripe, which do not refund processing fees.

- Guests can rent a boat or bring their own for fishing. There is a $15 boat registration fee for personal boats, and only electric motors are permitted—no gas motors allowed.

The lake has plenty of bass and other fish, and fishing is catch and release only.
