About this property
Family & Pet Retreat-2 Amazing Game Rooms-FencedYd-Pool-Beach-JimThorpe-Speedway
Thank you for considering My Vacation Property Rental (MVP Rental) for your upcoming trip to the Poconos. This was my family home until it was converted to a vacation property in 2023. I have owned and been hosting people at homes in this resort community since 2011. Over the years, across multiple properties, I have managed thousands of reservations and have gained the expertise to offer a relaxing retreat for both you and your pets.
Having multiple game rooms, a theater room area, multiple seating areas, TVs in all rooms, and large deck, there are spaces for everyone. Pet lovers will appreciate the fully fenced backyard which provides a safe space for dogs to play. The wire mesh fence extends from the top rail to the ground keeping your pets contained. There has never been a reported escape, though deer do jump the fence often to graze in the yard.
Thank you again, and please reach out if you have any questions. I’m happy to answer any you may have.

Will made the check-in process very easy and the house was great. Enough space and plenty to do for a weekend with a group of friends including a dog and a toddler.
This house is great for an extended family trip. We had a really nice time. The house offers a lot with the extended game room upstairs. It’s a good location for Jim Thorpe, all of the nature trails and water parks.
Host was very welcoming - we arrived in the dark, and appreciated the lights were on for us. Really lovely and comfortable home with plenty of space for the 6 grown ups, 2 little girls baby. Appreciated the 'little things' - coffee, spices, dishwasher pods - and plenty of dishes and pots and pans to do some cooking and eating in. Wonderful fenced in backyard too. Great communication with the host. And the games were fun for all of us!
Great location, very clean, lots of games to keep all ages occupied. Fully stocked kitchen, linens in all the rooms & even popcorn for the popcorn machine in the media roomroom!
We go to Pa every year to get family together and hang out. The kids loved all the games to chose from and play. Loved the movie area as well. My entire family enjoy our visit and stay.
This home was perfect for our group of 8 adults. We were close to hiking and biking trails as well as downtown Jim Thorpe. We loved the gaming room. Everything was clean and comfortable. We’re looking forward to a return trip.
We had a great time at this property over Presidents Weekend. There were ten of us and there was plenty of room to spread out and sleep. Our grandkids really enjoyed the game rooms and we watched the Eagles Superbowl win parade on the 85" TV!! Took the kids tubing and enjoyed a couple meals at the nearby resturants. We would definitely rent here again!!
We stayed here with our young adult kids snd had a blast. So many games for fun family time. The house is very nicely furnished and well stocked. We did white water rafting, paintball, horseback riding, ziplining, kayaking, beach and pool.
This property was great. We had four adults and two dogs. Location was perfect, between Jim Thorpe and Lake Harmony. Very dog friendly, and the fenced in yard was a huge plus. We enjoyed watching five dear freely roam the neighborhood daily. The property is well maintained and the owner is very responsive for whatever is needed.
The home was exactly as advertised. We selected this area because it was a central location for family coming from different locations. We were able to find plenty of family friendly activities and it was the perfect time of year to appreciate the foliage. We hope to return next year.
Nice location, plenty of space for everyone as well as games for all. Deer were nice to see in the back yard and around the neighborhood. Club house was a great place to meet people. They treated us like one of them.
This is the second time we stayed at this property. A fall weekend provides excellent photography opportunities and the two game rooms were a hit with the grandkids. The owner is quite responsive and accessible.
House was awesome… I organized a family vacation, and everyone was very pleased with the house . spacious and clean. Love the fenced in yard and the host was very available. My only complaint was most the darts for the dartboard were broken, but there was so many other games to keep us occupied. Definitely would stay here again.
Very spacious rooms for entire family of 8 could accommodate more. Enjoyed playing games with family and was so impressed with the neighborhood. We went on walks each day and the encounters with deers and just seeing nature was awesome. So quiet and relaxing. Thanks again the Oliver’s.
This home was beautiful! Clean, well maintained, every amenity we needed, great location and air conditioned!
Owner provided list of local activities and events including local businesses for all our needs.
Highly recommend! We will defystY there again! 10 out of 10!
We had such a great time in this lovely house. Its two big game rooms have everything to occupy kids and adults. Personally for me one of the biggest plus of the property was fenced backyard so I could let my dog walk around freely. The house itself was nice and clean and comunication with the host was very easy. Would love to come here again !
Property was perfect! House was comfortable for all. We were 6 adults, 4 children, ranging in age from 5 to 14. Kids love the two game rooms. 3 dogs loved the fenced in yard. The community has a nice beach area and family enjoyed the peddle boats. Close enough to mini golf and water park.
Our family had a great time this weekend. Everyone loved the games. Movie room was a big hit with my son. Fenced in and very spacious yard was great to have especially while outside playing in the snow. Owner was easy to communicate with. It was so nice not having to pack linens and towels since they were provided. Can’t wait for our next trip back to this house!
Everything was excellent. 2 games rooms..plenty to keep kods busy. Had deer come right thru front yard. Front and back sliding dooors stick a little, but the place and whole stay was awesome. We had a last minute change due to attending a funeral and the host was very accompdating, helpful, and caring in trying to help fulfill another day for us
Our family enjoyed our weekend stay and all the house had to offer. The community was beautiful and we enjoyed peaceful walks and nature watching. We were very happy to have our fur babies with us, too! The owner of the home spared no expense when outfitting both floors with amazing activities and games. The host was helpful and provided an easy check-in process. Highly recommend!
