Please see the rental costs in the rate section of this ad.

Come renew yourself at this Beautiful Log Home getaway. Your mornings may begin with one of the four porches beckoning you to relax outside in the cool morning air. You can sit and stretch out on the glider bench with a cup of coffee and listen to the sounds of nature while reading your favorite book. Later on, take a walk on the private marked hiking trail back to a roaring woodland creek and waterfall. Enjoy watching the constant stream of visitors at the bird feeders. Fill the wildlife feed tub with some deer chow from the local Agway and gaze at the nocturnal parade of deer and other animals through the wall of windows facing the woodland. After a day of activities slip into the hot tub for some deep relaxation. In the winter you can fire up the wood stove and enjoy its cozy ambience while perhaps watching the snow fall thru the wall of windows. This home is beautifully decorated with rustic and log furniture displaying wildlife and woodland themes. With parking for 10 cars, this lovely mountain retreat has it all and is ideal for any gathering of family and friends. Perfect for a private scout encampment, church group retreat or an offsite corporate meeting. 3 bedrooms, 2 & 1/2 baths, finished basement.

Situated 5 minutes above the towns of Newfoundland and Greentown where you'll find friendly establishments offering breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Great casual dining can be found in town at Napolitanos Italian restaurant (byob), or within a short distance at Trios in Hamlin or The Boat House (on the lake) in Hawley. The Stationhouse Restaurant offers a driving range, mini golf, really good go cart racing and an arcade.

Lindsey R.

'I just wanted to express our sincere thanks to you and your snow plow man for being so helpful and coming to our rescue today, we eventually made it home safely! Additionally thank you for renting out your beautiful cabin, we had a lovely time and a magical Christmas. It was the most perfect place to relax over the holidays'.

'Happy New Year! I just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay in your beautiful home! We hope to rent again from you in the future. All my best'

Monika P.

We had an incredible time this weekend. It couldn't have been better. We had a great time relaxing in the living room and cooking dinners together. Also, the hot tub was a fantastic way to decompress after a day of skiing at Camelback. Thank you for everything.

Lyndsey A.

PS. Is it too early to reserve the same weekend next year ?

About Robert Dean Jr.

Live near Doylestown PA, the began searching for the right property to build a vacation home in 2000, and finally had the complete dream fulfilled, taking occupancy the day after Thanksgiving in 2004.

Robert Dean Jr. purchased this cabin in 2004
Why Robert Dean Jr. chose Newfoundland

As children, our families went on summer vacations to mountain lake areas such as Pennsylvania's Wallenpaupack, New Yorks Lake George and New Hampshire's Lake Winnipesaukee. We fondly remember camping trips to Tobyhanna and Promised land State Parks, and visiting friends who owned a house on Lake Wallenpaupack. We built our dream vacation home after a two year search for an ideal parcel of land. This one had all of the elements we were looking for; secluded and scenic, huntable woodland with a creek, and close to a large body of water that offered recreation. Not until after we moved in did it become apparent just how perfect our choice was as we kept discovering all that the surrounding small towns had to offer and the area within 30 minutes travel. We began implementing a wildlife habitat improvement program on the property in 2009 and clear cut two 1 acre deer crop fields and a 3 acre sanctuary. We are thinking about building a pond below the house just into the woods and are planning to begin a natural landscape plan for the open area surrounding the house sometime this year.

What makes this cabin unique

This house (home) is used frequently by its owners and therefore is furnished and maintained at a higher standard than a 'rental only' property. The size of the property is a feature almost completely unique that most vacation rental homes simply don't have. The time, effort, and expense put forth in decorating the interior were an endeavor of love and enthusiasm and we think our home reflects that. It is a wonderfully relaxing and quiet setting. You can feel so comfortable and secluded at the cabin yet you are only a short distance from so many things like shopping, dining and many forms of entertainment and of course Lake Wallenpaupack. There are several public boat accesses and beaches around the 15 mile long lake. Best of all when at our cabin, you don't have to be near the sounds and bustle of the big lake 24/7, only when you want to be.

The cabin is even better than it looks in the photos (and that's already pretty impressive). The kitchen has basically all of the supplies you'd need. It's pretty awesome to see the wildlife so close by. The house easily sleeps 10. The property is very private, and there are trails basically right there to go hiking. Bob, the owner, has been excellent to deal with, very prompt responses and good information/advice. I could not give a higher recommendation. Thanks Bob.

Incredible Adventure at this very special Cabin

5 of 5
Submitted: April 22, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
We were fortunate to stay at Bob's Cabin over the past 3 days.

Pictures do no justice to the beauty and thoughtful design of the cabin. We were blown away as soon as we arrived. Every little detail has been thought through and it really shows. Our entire crew fell in love with the cabin immediately!

There are so many activities to do in the cabin and the surrounding grounds. Every morning we were visited by a large number of turkeys. The turkeys would graze right outside the living room window. Such a beautiful sight.

The cabin is spacious and all the furniture is very comfortable and cozy. The hot tub worked great and fit 8 people easily. There is a great sound system in the living room and speakers and iPod stands throughout the house.

Everything about the cabin easily exceeded our expectations! Within 30 minutes of arriving we were already talking making another trip!

Bob was incredibly accommodating throughout our stay. There are even little helpful notes throughout the cabin to make everything as convenient and enjoyable as possible.

We could not dream of a better place to have our vacation and really can not thank Bob enough for creating this wonderful space and sharing it with all of us.

Owner's Response: Wow Amir Thank You,
Reading your comments reminds me of how surreal our first weekends and months were, as we looked at and around our new "weekend house" and all of the amazing things inside and out. Years ago, it was something we never imagined until it became real and it exceeded our own expectations. Thanks so much and I hope we hear from you again soon.

All we can say is Wow, my family and I stayed for 3 nights and didn't want to go back home. The pictures on this website don't do this place justice, this cabin is truly gorgeous down to the details, the cleanliness, the amenities, the space and the wildlife on the property are just amazing. We usually do this every year and by far this has been the best rental so far, We are definitely renting from Bob again He's a pleasure to deal with, We had an awesome time Thank you Bob and family.

I cant believe Mr Dean rents this place out. It is BREATH TAKEN BEAUTIFUL.Spacious, clean , private beautiful grounds with a nice trail.This place looks like its right out of a magazine.If you like to cook The kitchen has everything you need .If you dont want to cook theres a steak house, Chinese take out, grocery store and several other restaurants to choose from about 8 to 10 miles away. My eight year old and my husband loved the foos ball table and the hot tub. Ive always wanted to stay in a log cabin and this birthday retreat was a dream come true. A very cozy relaxing home away from home feeling. Mr Dean was wonderful and available for any questions. The xmas lights on the house was a sweet touch and a nice help to find the house when your coming home at night. I just couldnt stop texting out photos of this beautiful home to my freinds and family.Alot of them are asking me for info to rent your beautiful home.I cannot thank you enough for letting me share your home. I CANT WAIT TO COME BACK.

Owner's Response: Thank you for your wonderful comments. It is said that some country folks leave their Christmas lights up all year long, so we just wanted the cabin to blend in. Just kidding. By the way there is a grocery store within 5 miles of our cabin and several good restaurants within 3 miles.
Look forward to hosting you again.

We stayed this past weekend to do some skiing at nearby Camelback and couldn't have had a better place to be. There were 8 of us and we had more than enough places to comfortably sleep, a kitchen with room to work, and a clean and well-appointed place to relax. We arrived to a clean house with modern amenities that made a weekend trip go smoothly and didn't make you miss much of anything back home. A great experience!

Owner's Response: Thank you for taking the time to give us your thoughts. I enjoyed answering your questions about adequate kitchenware prior to your arrival, and happy to tell you "we have that covered". It seems we host a lot of "cooking in" groups so we're always interested in your suggestions.
Thank you,

Perfect Log Cabin Retreat

5 of 5
Submitted: February 25, 2013 Stayed: February 2013
Absolutely amazing. We were 4 couples with children and everyone had a great time and plenty of room to spread out. The pictures do not do this place justice. It is so much more than any of us imagined. As you enter you are instantly transported to a cozy retreat. It was warm, inviting and very clean. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need, even an apple coring machine. The kids really loved watching the deer come to the back of the house in the mornings and got a real kick over the taxidermy. We love the house so much that we considereid cancelling our snowtubing plans just so we could enjoy the house for a little longer. Bob was also very accomodating and always available to answer my questions. My only regret is that we did not stay longer. We are already planning for our next trip to the gorgeous home in the summer.
Owner's Response: We're always excited and pleased to read responses as people continue to come up with new ways to compliment our house and talk about how much fun they had. Your mention of your kids enjoying the deer reminds me of our family vacations over 40 years ago and all of the wonders and adventures we found. As always if there is ever anything you think we could improve or add we'd love to hear your suggestions. Look forward to hearing from you in the future.
Thanks
Bob

We wanted to get away for my birthday and stayed for 4 nights here. We've rented several other places in the Pocono but this was the best! The house was amazing and Bob the owner is a wonderful person! We walked the beautiful trail that was marked throughout the property while the snow was falling and had a nice peaceful walk. The inside of the house is decorated with so many amazing things. We fell in love with this location and home. We will be staying again and probably every year until we can find our own place as close to a match to this home. Thank you Bob for such an enjoyable vacation and beautiful home!

Absolutely Charming

I rented this cabin for a two-night couples get-away and greatly enjoyed it. The pictures don't do justice to the cabin's true beauty. It is very clean and the interior is tastefully decorated with taxidermy, beautiful wood furnishings, and other interesting conversation items. It came equipped with pretty much anything I needed to prepare meals, except the food itself, of course. After an outing to the near-by outlet mall, the indoor hot tub was a relaxing treat. Bob Dean, the owner, was highly accommodating and provided excellent customer service. I'd recommend this property to anyone looking to get away from all the hustle and bustle of city living. I plan to rent again from Bob in the future!
Owner's Response: Thank You so much. We try hard to keep everything clean and fresh and we visit our house regularly to make sure things are to our liking. We have an excellent cleaning service person who deserves a lot of credit.
