About this property

Tranquil Lake Retreat•Dog-Friendly•Lakes•Pools•Beaches•Spacious Family Escape

  • La Caseta is a Catalan-inspired 3BR retreat in the Poconos, designed for easy summer living: lake days, slow mornings, family dinners, and firepit nights. Guests get full access to The Hideout’s beaches, pools, lakes, golf, tennis/pickleball, fitness center, arcade, sauna, trails, and seasonal amenities, while returning to a calm, pet-friendly home base with fiber WiFi, children’s games, a deck, firepit, and an optional private-chef paella experience.

    Key Features

    ☀ Sleeps 6 | 3 Bedrooms | 2 Full Bathrooms

    ☀ Two Queen bedrooms + one Twin-over-Full bunk room (kid-favorite)

    ☀ Gas-burning fireplace for the “stay in” nights you actually want

    ☀ Fiber-optic WiFi for smooth streaming + calm midweek workdays (no dedicated desk)

    ☀ Smart TV (bring your own streaming logins)

    ☀ Free in-unit washer/dryer for longer stays + easy packing

    ☀ Screen-free fun: lots of children’s games

    ☀ Deck + fire pit for golden-hour unwinds and stargazing

    ☀ Seasonal lake view (best when leaves are down—especially winter)

    ☀ Full Hideout access: lakes/beach, pools, ski hill, golf, pickleball/tennis, fitness center, arcade, sauna, trails + more

    ☀ Pet- and kid-friendly—bring the whole crew

    ☆☆ BEDROOMS ☆☆
    Bedroom 1 – Queen
    A soft, quiet landing spot after a day of trails, lake air, or skiing. Close the door, exhale, and let the pace shift—this room is made for deep sleep and slow, unhurried mornings.

    Bedroom 2 – Queen
    Warm and welcoming—perfect for another couple, friends, or grandparents. Think “hotel comfort, cabin calm”: you’ll wake up rested, then drift toward coffee and daylight without rushing.

    Bedroom 3 – Twin-over-Full Bunk Room
    A built-in memory-maker for kids. The twin-over-full bunk turns bedtime into a sleepover vibe—whispers, giggles, and story time—while adults get their own space to unwind by the fire.

    ☆☆ BATHROOMS ☆☆
    La Caseta includes 2 full bathrooms, so mornings stay smooth and evenings stay easy—no bottlenecks, no stress. Both are fully stocked with body wash, shampoo, conditioner, and all the essentials, so you can arrive lighter and settle in faster.

    ☆☆ KITCHEN & RELAXING AREAS ☆☆
    The kitchen has all the basics you need to live comfortably—whether you’re doing simple breakfasts before the lake, a cozy pasta night after the slopes, or grazing snacks between pool and pickleball.

    But the real magic is in the rhythm of the house. La Caseta is designed for those “little-luxury” moments:

    the crackle of a gas-burning fireplace as the room warms up

    a glass of wine while dinner simmers

    a slow evening that starts with games at the table and ends with “one more chapter” on the couch

    streaming your favorites on the Smart TV (with your own logins), then switching to screen-free with the kids’ games when you want something more connected

    Midweek reset / remote-friendly: There’s no dedicated workspace, but the fiber-optic WiFi makes it easy to set up at the dining table for a focused block of time—then shut the laptop, step outside, and feel the reset kick in.

    Longer stays feel easy here: Free in-unit washer/dryer means you can pack less, stay longer, and keep the trip feeling effortless.

    Optional signature upgrade: Private Chef Paella Experience (up to 6 guests)
    Turn a great stay into a story you’ll retell. Enjoy a leisurely, luxurious in-home paella experience—a slow, sensory evening inspired by Spain: conversation flowing, aromas filling the house, and a meal that feels celebratory without needing a reservation. Perfect for romantic nights, birthdays, or a “just because” splurge.

    ☆☆ OUTSIDE SPACE ☆☆
    Step onto the deck and let the outdoors set the tone—morning coffee, midday breathing room, and that moment at dusk when everything gets quiet. Gather around the firepit for s’mores, stargazing, and the kind of conversation that only happens when nobody’s in a hurry.

    The lake view is seasonal—most visible when the leaves are down, with winter offering the clearest peek through the trees.

    Parking: Space for up to 4 cars off-street only (no street parking).

    And when you want to turn the dial up from cozy to active, you’ll have full access to The Hideout amenities: lakes and beach, pools, ski hill, golf, pickleball/tennis, fitness center, arcade, sauna, trails, and more (seasonal availability may apply).

Check in was easy & accommodated for an earlier arrival so we could settle in before a 50th celebration party. Kitchen & pantry was stocked with the essentials - snacks, coffee, teas, dishes & cookware.

One of the best places to go

La Caseta is one of the best places I have ever been at. I love almost everything about it. The only thing I don't like is the location of the television. I Wish it is upstairs instead of downstairs. Everything else is fantastic!!! Highly recommend!!!
