Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Lake Ariel

We stayed at Oak View during the first week of June 2025 and had a truly wonderful experience. The home is beautifully designed and thoughtfully appointed, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The host was attentive and responsive without being intrusive. We spent most days relaxing on the deck, enjoying the peaceful surroundings—and even sneaking in a few naps. It was the perfect escape for a restful weekend. We’ll definitely be back!

My girlfriend and I stayed in Jonathan’s home for our Valentine’s Day weekend. The house was beautiful and the views were amazing. Jonathan checked in on us to see if we had everything we needed and recommend local restaurants and places to visit he even gave us the time we should wake up to enjoy the sunrise which we did. All in all the trip was a 10/10 and we can’t wait to return!

Suzanne’s place is a beautiful house in a serene setting. We loved everything about the house - the well appointed furnishings, comfy beds, spacious kitchen stocked with everything we needed throughout our stay. The bathrooms were perfectly clean. The fully finished basement with a pool table and darts was a great bonus. The outdoor area was truly the crown jewel. We spent our days by the lake fishing and enjoying the surrounding nature. We hope to be able to come again.

We loved our time here! It was the perfect place to reconnect with friends and take a dip in the water. We would absolutely stay again and appreciate Deborah’s quick communication during our stay!

SPECTACULAR! Tom & Carol are the nicest people you’ll ever meet and genuinely enjoy sharing their Piece of Heaven with guests. Anything you need, 24/7, just ask. Tom’s art & sculpture, inside & out, will blow you away! If you’ve stayed at their former AirB&B, the Art Cabin in the Woods, you’ll remember the little touches that made it magical, surprises at every turn - imagine that x5, that’s what you find here. GORGEOUS indoor space that’s colorful, whimsical and yet upscale & refined, from the radiant heated floors to the fully stocked gourmet kitchen..the cozy living room with the biggest TV I’ve ever seen to the bedroom’s atmospheric wall-mounted fireplace.. the PERFECT mattress & the deepest soaking tub these old bones have ever had the pleasure to melt in! True luxury Outside - hot tub, grill, fire pit, wood-burning sauna…3 decks, seating everywhere, and the views…all speak for themselves. 2 nights wasn’t enough, strongly suggest minimum 3, I’m already planning!!

This was a short stay but we absolutely adored it. Having small things like extra amenities, leaving the farm fresh eggs for us, the succulent gift--it made me feel like I should have extended my stay if I had the time. I absolutely would love to re-book. We live in PA and this was such a short and scenic drive, and kept our dog safe and occupied. Highly recommended for families or couples!

This was the perfect spot for a long weekend with friends. The backyard was cozy and had just what we needed to relax and hang out as a group. The fenced yard was great for our dog. The kitchen was gorgeous and suited us well for the few dinners we cooked. The kids loved the toys & games in the play room as well as the huge bathtub, having 3 bathrooms was awesome! Everything was SPOTLESSLY clean and Patrick was very responsive with any questions we had. Thank you for having us!

Tember and Heather are wonderful hosts and their stay is lovely. Our large family gathering had plenty of space for everyone! The rooms were clean and comfortable and everything we needed was supplied — including firewood! They were quick to respond to any need or request we had. We are so grateful for the extra accommodations they allowed and should we ever gather again in the area we will definitely return!!

Would recommend Patricia’s highly. Very comfortable, beautiful location with mountain views and walking distance to everything in town.

This was my second stay at Rob’s place, and once again it was a great experience. The house, tucked away in the Green Ridge area of Scranton, is quiet, charming, and full of character. It has that cozy, old-home feel that’s both welcoming and comfortable. Rob is a very attentive host—quick to respond and clearly thoughtful about making sure everything goes smoothly. I’ll definitely be back the next time I’m in town.

John's place is very peaceful. Very much what you would expect from a farm in the country side. Right down to the 3 very friendly barn cats that greet you when you arrive. He offers a nice, bright, comfortable home. The bed is super comfy! We highly recommend John's home and we look forward to returning again. Thank you for your gracious hospitality!

A nice spot just outside of Jim Thorpe and the perfect spot to set up a trip to go to Jim Thorpe

They were not kidding when they named this bambis haven because we were able to get up close and personal with deers all over and even got to get friendly with the homes kitties.

What a great little studio for a Birthday get away trip to Bethel Woods concerts, etc. Relaxing on the deck overlooking the lake for coffee in the morning or a nightcap after your days activities. 2 restaurants within a 100 yards, the Tap n Table was excellent with really Friendly staff. Must have breakfast at least once at Bethel Market Cafe, the Best! All this less than 15 minutes in any direction. I would like to come back in the Summer to take advantage of the Lake activities. Wonderful stay!

It is the second time we stayed at Michelle’s place and it is one of the most favorite locations for us. Caught bunch of perch and bluegill at the lake and enjoyed our tea watching the sunset. Michelle is a great host.

John is a super attentive host and the place is a nice clean basement apartment with lots of wildlife! It was the perfect set up for our trip to Bethel. Would def stay here again!

Words do not describe the location. Take a few days, relax, eat at the Landing Steakhouse. Water wheel or Milford Diner for breakfast. Stop by Fox N Hare Brewery/ Pub. Then after all that sit on the deck watch the local wildlife sip your beverage of choice and take in the serenity of the stream and waterfall.

It is a very nice place just minutes away from a number of attractions. Colleen was very responsive and had clear instructions for check-in and check out. We will definitely recommend this place! The property had beautiful 3 acres and we would have loved to see some rough walkway/trail to explore all of it.

My family and I came up from Friday to Tuesday for my birthday. It was the perfect getaway. We took advantage of all the wonderful recommendations that Meng and Andrew gave us. All of the restaurants and shops were fantastic. The home is set in front a beautiful peaceful creek, we had the windows open and enjoyed the beautiful sounds of nature and the fresh air. My dog loved running around the property and drinking from the stream. The sauna and the hot tub where the perfect treat after our adventurous days. I could not have asked for a better getaway. The home is thoughtfully decorated and had everything we needed to feel right at home. Thank you!

Really charming cottage in the woods, and great, responsive hosts. Really had a nice time in this wooded and rural area, with two lakes nearby and the canoes on white lake. The cottage was clean and had a sleek, minimalist, scandanavian style (I felt like I was back in Sweden from years ago), which we appreciated! very peaceful at night and the AC worked great which helped out greatly on the hot days we were there. It's close enough to Woodstock museum/grounds, good food and laid back entertainment options in neighboring towns. Overall, a great stay, thank you!

The place was great! Nicely secluded and peaceful to spend a weekend at. William was a great host and quickly cleared some trees in the driveway that fell during some windy weather.

House sits right on the lake, beautiful property very private but close to town. The open floor plan is so comfortable. Kitchen is well stocked with everything you could need. The house was well organized and very clean. Communication with Anna was easy and very responsive. The hot tub was such a nice treat at the end of the day. Would highly recommend this home.

My family enjoyed our time and felt very at home. The house was clean and had everything we needed to cover the basics for our stay. The location is beautiful, with deer roaming through the property, adding to the awe of nature during our stay. I would absolutely stay here again!

Beautiful hidden property tucked down off of road. The place has everything you need and is so quiet n peaceful. The hot tub was great to relax in and was nice to see deer morning n evening grazing.
