💥No extra fees.💥Just our posted nightly rates.💥Property has been featured in magazines, films and served as a backdrop for modelling shoots and celebrity athletes’ bachelor weekends.

Nested in woods right by the picturesque lake.
9ft PRO-Tournament Billiard, 1 GB Hi Speed Wi-Fi, 70”SMART TV, Steinway PIANO.

FAQ:

Q: How can you keep nightly rates lower compared to many similar size properties in the area?
A: We are not an investment property which enables us to provide our guests with amazing value (property size, location and all amenities that we offer) at a very modest price point. That would simply be impossible if we were to obtain such a property for business only.

Q: There are no cleaning charges posted in the profile. Do you clean the property yourself? Or Do you incorporate cleaning fees into your nightly rates?
A: Absolutely not to both:) We use our longtime housekeepers on a weekly basis regardless whether we host or not. As for ‘incorporating cleaning fees into our rates’ - that is simply impossible as we are using Smart Pricing software. Smart Pricing figures rates for our property by taking into account availability of rental homes in the area. Nothing else comes into play! Our nightly rates are actually very modest compared to other homes of equal value.

Q: What do you suggest guests bring with them when they arrive?
A: I would say just personal things like clothes, prescription medications, favorite bath products.
Unlike investment properties and many other homes, our house is fully stocked. Kitchen, bathrooms, wet bar area and living spaces aren’t lacking amenities. You will find great variety of pillows, comforters, blankets, throws too.
*** Bringing your own linens and towels would not only help to reduce laundry costs as we are not charging any cleaning fees but will also help environment. However we are happy to arrange laundry pick up / drop off services for your stay at NO additional cost if that is your preference. We can provide linens for all 8 beds if requested ahead of time.
Aside from that - our house has everything one can think of:)

Q: There are no ‘Extra Guests’ charges posted in the profile. Do you care how many guests stay at the house?
A: We complete HOA registration form for every group and only allow registered guests on premises. However we don’t believe that there should be additional charges for a larger group of guests or bigger family. That is simply nonsense!

Q: Are pets allowed? And is there a per night pet fee?
A: We only host fully grown crate trained dogs ages 3+. There is a one time pet fee that covers the entire stay. Pet fee is posted in our profile.

Q: How many vehicles can your parking lot accommodate?
A: Our parking area is quite large. According to permits issued by Kidder Township the number of parking spaces is limited to six (6) vehicles.

Q: SuperHost and Premier Host badges are posted to your profile. Have you been hosting for a long time?
A: We have been hosting way before VRBO has been around. We have guests that visit us every year for many years. We also have established relationships with number of modeling companies that use our property for commercial photography. Throughout years of hosting we welcomed so many amazing families, bachelors and bachelorettes, artists, singers, photographers, actors, writers and even a few celebrities. But most importantly, throughout our years of hosting we haven’t had a single unhappy group of guests.
-
Note for our WINTER guests: We are only few miles from Jack Frost Big Boulder Ski Resorts and Tubing.

Note for our SUMMER guests: We are right next to a white sandy beach, 2 lakes and childrens playground.

For SPRING_SUMMER_FALL guests: Grassy baseball field, volleyball court and small basketball court are all located right near the beach. Swim, sunbathe, enjoy a picnic at the beach or try to catch a fish!

***While we are conveniently located in a 'fun-filled' Lake Harmony area (Exit 277/Lake Harmony) - our property is actually situated in a much more private, ‘commuter friendly’ development with a beautiful lake. We are a 2-minute-walk to the beach and only a short 10-minute-drive to all of Lake Harmony's restaurants and watersports.

Fun for All
Fantastic family event with a good time had by all. We enjoyed the lovely, spacious home with all of the amenities. The outside grounds were very well manicured - the hot tub and fire pit were a plus. Kids really enjoyed the beach area. Easy to navigate the water with the beach devices provided. Would absolutely recommend for a relaxing get-away. Masha is an excellent hostess who is very attentive to your requests.

Weekend Birthday Getaway!
Let me just say, if you are on the fence about renting this property, stop thinking and just book it! My girlfriend and I and a group of 8 other people stayed here for a birthday weekend getaway and it was everything and more we wanted! Masha the host was the most accommodating host I have dealt with and everything was perfect! From the pool table, to the hot tub, to the fire pit, everything was so cozy and we all had such a good time! The kitchen was stocked with all the appliances we needed and the bedrooms had all the linens needed as well. We went mid December and can not wait to come back in the summer! 5 out of 5 stars!

Pocono's Most Luxurious Hot Tub; Amazing Winter'23 Experience
The homeowner, Masha, did above & beyond for myself and friends to make our stay more than excellent this winter. The amenities provided at her home, emails received with local food places, and things to do, along with the beautiful lake and park around the block were absolutely outstanding. There are simply not enough words to say on how amazing this experience was and how YOU NEED TO JUST BOOK! Trust me. Stop looking, and book. Clean house, linens, provides toiletries, amazing amenities to use, updated appliances, forgot a toothbrush? No worries! She has everything ready for you!! More than you think a hotel would even have. I even brought my own coffee machine because I didn't know what to expect, but didn't need it - she had THREE options for making coffee in the morning!!!! THANK YOU MASHA!! Looking forward to our next stay!

This house was exactly what we were looking for. It is located on a quiet street, had an abundant of beds/bed rooms, and more than enough space for almost a dozen people to not feel cramped. The house, especially the bathrooms were clean, and filled with fresh/never opened knick knacks that friends may have forgotten to bring. Our hosts were readily available to answer any questions we had leading up to, or during our stay. One piece of advice to guests. We were always able to get an Uber where we were going, but wait times can be long, prepare for such in advance!! Thank you!

Excellent All Around
The property is exactly as advertised (it lives up to the gorgeous photos!). It is well-maintained, full of amenities and entertainments, and perfectly suited for a reunion of friends, bachelor party, or other get together. The thing that truly sets this property apart, however, is the attentiveness and responsiveness of the host. Masha is wonderful and goes out of her way to make every phase of the rental process run smoothly. Check-in and check-out were easy, with flexible arrival and departure times to meet the group's needs. Masha thoroughly inspected the property before the group's arrival to make sure that everything was ready for the visit, leaving a gift for the guest of honor and offering courtesy firewood for the fire pit. Later, she even found a wallet that one guest had lost outside the property and mailed it back free of charge. I cannot recommend this property enough. 5 stars!

Oneof the BEST houses in Poconos! Property that feels like your private mini resort - 10/10!
This was the second time my group and I booked Masha’s home because we enjoyed it so much the first time. Black Bear House was one of, if not the best VRBO experiences I have ever had. The place is absolutely stunning. The pictures look great, but it doesn't do justice compared to in person! The interior is beautiful with high ceilings and our group really appreciated the large open area for everyone to hang out. The layout is perfect and we loved the room set up and appreciated the linens and amenities provided! Oversized wrap around deck with many seating areas. Outdoor area is simply amazing: HUGE lawn that we utilized as our cricket field and our croquet field and our soccer field etc. Almost forgot the best part - we were allowed to put a TENT for our teens to sleep at. The fire pit is a great spot to sit and relax at night or really any time! The instructions were simple yet detailed. Every question we had along the way Masha was quick to respond and was always a pleasure to speak with. The location is also close to several hiking spots that we enjoyed! We couldn't have asked for a better location, we had privacy but was also convenient if we needed to go to the store. Overall a great experience. 10/10! Would definitely book again!

Without a doubt one of the BEST houses I have ever stayed at! Highly recommend!!
This place is AMAZING! Honestly it is even bigger than it looks on the photos (HUGE deck & HUGE resort-like grounds included). The living room is massive. There are really big windows too so it fills with the natural light during the day and you can see the stars/moon at night. I had a surprise birthday gathering for my girlfriend and our close friends and everyone was raving how awesome the place was. Masha was a great host and was quick to answer any questions we had. The property is on a main road so it is accessible and super easy to find but it still feel very secluded because its surrounded by trees. Lots of PRIVACY. Very FUN property to stay at! This was the best Pocono trip our friends have had!

The owners were so helpful and communicative about the area and very helpful with what the property had to offer. They were so quick to answer any questions we had, too! Our group was especially excited about the backyard fire pit and the games inside. It was a perfect getaway spot to spend time with family and friends. I do not travel often but there is no doubt I will keep this location in mind should we ever return to the Pocono area. We would love to stay here again!
