Designer Cabin • 3-Min Walk to Exclusive Lake Club! 2-Min Drive to Ski Lifts!
Welcome to LUX BOULDER CABIN, a high-end townhome ideally situated on Big Boulder Lake in the Pocono Mountains' community of Blue Heron. LUX sits within Big Boulder Ski Resort, and is just a 2-minute drive to the lifts and 3-minute walk to the exclusive Boulder Lake Club! It’s also the ONLY completely gutted and renovated rental unit in the entire community.
Welcome to LUX BOULDER CABIN, a high-end, luxury townhome ideally situated on Big Boulder Lake in the Pocono Mountains' community of Blue Heron. This exceptional home sits within Big Boulder Ski Resort, and is just a 2-minute drive to the lifts and a 3-minute walk to the Lake Club! It’s also the ONLY completely gutted and renovated rental unit in the entire community! It’s worth noting that one of the owners has been a professional designer for over 30 years, who’s projects have been featured in industry publications and on local radio. To be perfectly candid we are not aware of any rental within the entire Blue Heron Community, that’s even REMOTELY comparable to LUX BOULDER CABIN.
— THE LOCATION —
Roughly 1.5 hours from Philadelphia & NYC, this home is conveniently located on Big Boulder Lake in the Pocono Mountains just minutes from major attractions, including Big Boulder/Jack Frost Ski Resorts, Mount Airy Casino, H2O Indoor Water Park, Camelback Ski & Water Park, Pocono Raceway, Penn’s Peak Entertainment Venue, Crossings Premium Outlets, Jim Thorpe, Split Rock Resort (bowling, arcade, theater), whitewater rafting, paintball, state game lands, and much more.
LUX BOULDER CABIN is not only just a 2-minute drive to the ski lifts, it also has the distinct advantage of being within a short walk to the exclusive Boulder Lake Club! Blue Heron is the very first community built on Big Boulder Lake, so it has the closest proximity to this amazing club, and our guests will have full access to all it has to offer (open 7-days/week Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend and then weekends only for the remainder of September — weather permitting). The club is a leisurely 3-minute walk on lighted, wooded paths running alongside Big Boulder Lake.
Lake Club access includes a pristine beach beach (groomed daily), where guests swim in the heated pools and crystal clear lake, and play tennis, ping pong, bocci ball, ladder ball, horseshoes, corn-hole, badminton, volleyball, tennis, and more. Guests can also rent kayaks, standup paddle boards, fishing boats, paddle boats, sailboats, and even pontoon boats! The lake often has a giant, blow-up swan and trampoline floating in it. It’s just a festive, resort-like atmosphere, where one can play or just relax with the breathtaking view of Big Boulder Lake as the backdrop. There’s even a Kids Camp!
Note that the overwhelming majority of rental units that mention "access" to the club DO NOT INCLUDE the passes required to access it — They pass the cost onto their guests, which can cost well over $200. We, on the other hand pay a hefty, one-time, guest-pass fee, which INCLUDES 8 passes to the Boulder Lake Club (additional pass can be purchased directly from the club). This saves our guests money and the hassle of having to purchase them. So, when comparing rates, read competitors' fine print, and factor in the cost.
Boulder View Tavern is also located at the Lake Club, and is open year-round. It offers great food, indoor and outdoor dining, amazing views of Big Boulder Lake, live entertainment, and a fun outdoor bar right on the beach. Boulder View Tavern is our go-to place even during the ski season, but there are many other bars/restaurants a short walk or drive away. Sometimes it's just nice having the convenience of not having to step foot in a vehicle.
All that said, the best feature of LUX BOULDER CABIN is indeed the location, but that’s where the WOW stops on every other Blue Heron vacation rental currently available. Read on to see what separates LUX BOULDER CABIN from the rest.
— THE LUX DIFFERENCE —
The Blue Heron Community was built in the early 80’s, and aside from this unit, all of the other BH rentals look like it on the inside. Granted, some have had bandaids, but those don’t look much better.
The owners are proud to offer the ONLY unit that has been completely gutted and renovated with a timeless, sophisticated design. Even the doors and windows are new (interior and exterior). LUX also has central AC (the overwhelming majority of Blue Heron units DO NOT have AC).
Being that it's a designer home, it's outfitted in a highly-functional manner with high-end... EVERYTHING! From the quality furniture to the hand-forged hooks lining the hallway, rest assured knowing you will be staying somewhere special, that makes you FEEL like you’re on vacation.
Details about the spaces follow...
— THE ENTRYWAY —
Upon entering LUX BOULDER CABIN guests immediately realize they are in a designer home, and can't help being captivated by the overall look and feel. A multitude wood species combine with dark metals and geometric shapes to provide an eclectic yet cohesive warmth. The overall style is a sophisticated mix of contemporary and rustic, keeping true to both its architecture and natural surroundings. The perspective of the hovering spherical pendant, embroidered deer head, and distant window with views of the woods, draws guests into the main living space.
— THE GREAT ROOM —
As guests enter the open-concept great room, they continue to be awed. White shiplap covering the ceiling and back wall provides subtle texture, while allowing all the various wood tones to shine. The space is comprised of kitchen, bar, dining, and living areas, and just feels right.
The high-end kitchen boasts a substantial wood beam, dovetailed maple cabinets, granite counters, tiled backsplash, massive sink, new appliances, and a bar that seats 6. It’s also fully stocked with dishware, drinkware, silverware, cooking utensils, pots, pans, blender, coffee maker, tea kettle, etc. Just bring your food and you’re good to go! A concealed washer and dryer are conveniently just off the kitchen.
The dining area seats 8 more at a beautiful, custom table. A super cool, schoolhouse pendant hovers overhead, and is flanked by custom pine shelves with hand forged iron brackets. Aside from anchoring the room and looking gorgeous, the shelves along with the storage bins allow guests to stow away items that would otherwise crowd the space. Beneath the shelves hangs intricate wood and metal artwork, further pulling together all the various wood tones.
The living room has a vaulted ceiling with skylight, and custom designed canvases of local wildlife merged with landscapes. A large coffee table melds together a massive sectional sofa and two swivel club chairs. A 55” Smart TV with a direct-wire, ethernet connection to high-speed internet (1GB/sec) hangs above the wood burning fireplace (firewood included — Roughly Nov. to March). Roku speakers provide outstanding sound!
The kitchen, dining and living areas are combined, so everyone in the entire space can comfortably enjoy each other’s company, the TV, and the fireplace. Even the lighting was well thought out with perfectly placed, beautiful fixtures on dimmers. This is a warm, sophisticated space that lives large.
There are also three tastefully designed, themed bedrooms and two luxurious, full baths. Two of the bedrooms have connecting bathrooms, which equates to two master bedrooms! How sweet is that?
— BEDROOM & BATHROOM 1 —
Lux-Rustic Bedroom is conveniently located on the 1st floor with a queen bed and luxurious bedding. Outfitted with authentic Spanish furniture, barn doors with hand forged hardware, and a large Bucks County barn wood mirror, this room needed a something truly special to anchor it all. The solution was a winter wonderland wall mural custom-designed by the owner. This room really just makes guests FEEL like they’re on vacation in the mountains. It also has a 37” Smart TV and private access to the stunning downstairs bathroom.
The show-stoppers of the downstairs bathroom are the mosaic marble tiled shower, and high-end fixtures. Squares and rectangles are the reoccurring and unifying shapes in this contemporary, spa-like bathroom. The rain-shower head makes for a refreshing bathing experience. Chair-height toilets were selected for both bathrooms.
— BEDROOM & BATHROOM 2 —
The Lux-Treehouse Bedroom is the largest of the 3 bedrooms and is located on the 2nd floor. While relaxing in the upholstered king bed, guests feel like they are high up in the mature trees just outside the windows. A restored, antique dresser melds perfectly with other quality furnishings and custom designed artwork to give this room an eclectic, yet sophisticated vibe. A custom-built desk provides a quiet workspace. The room is equipped with a 37” TV and has private access to an equally stunning bathroom.
Speaking of the upstairs bathroom — It’s gorgeous. Sleek black tiled floors and walls are the perfect backdrop for the high-end, marble vanity with double sinks, and the sculptural vessel tub. The bathroom is completed with a new shower with soothing rain shower head.
— BEDROOM 3 —
Lux Lodge Bedroom has a massive, log bunk (Twin-XL over Queen) with tons of headroom down below, so kids can hang out in comfort and enjoy the 50” LED Smart TV. There’s also an upholstered daybed with trundle providing additional seating. Small balcony has views of mature trees and the lake.
IMPORTANT NOTES: A professional linen service is included in the $230 cleaning fee, and includes: - 9 sets of a bath towels & washcloths - 4 hand towels - Two dish towels, washcloth & sponge - Sheets for all beds - Beach towels are not included

We loved our stay. The location is central to a lot of the Poconos attractions. Close to Jim Thorpe, Hickory Run, outlets, etc. The lake amenities were amazing for the kiddos.

The Lux Cabin was a beautifully updated place to stay. Plenty of room for our family of 5 adults and three children. Close to lots of nearby attractions and a quick walk to the beach/pool area of the community. We would definitely stay here again!

This property is cozy, tastefully furnished & decorated, and in an excellent location. It’s the kind of accommodation when on a perfect autumn day, all I needed to do was make myself coffee, sit, look out the house and feel relaxed & rejuvenated.

The pictures dont do the condo justice, it was fantastic. Te owners were very responsive and helpful and also provided information of local activities for our families to partake in. The kids loved the lake and the pool, did a morning adventure out on the pontoon, great family destination.

The Lux Boulder Cabin was a great spot as “home base” for our Poconos exploration. It allowed easy access to local attractions - like Jim Thorpe and Hickory State Park. The walking trails around the complex are great space to take a nice walk in nature. The townhouse is beautifully decorated with many modern conveniences.

We loved this house as soon as we saw it on VRBO - it was equally stunning in person.
The owner was so helpful and informative with all the details and available activities
He generously extended our check out time at no charge because we experienced some rainy weather during our long weekend. Will definitely book again

My husband and I were there for 3 weeks with guest visits. Escaped the heat of the city. The townhouse was spacious and had everything we needed, along with sheets and towels. Boulder lake club has a pool and a beach within walking distance, with plenty of chairs for all and plenty of activities. Dominic the owner replied quickly to any questions and concerns we had. Overall, it was a wonderful time there.

The Lux Boulder Cabin is an absolutely beautifully furnished and decorated townhouse in a really cute neighborhood. The only thing I wish was available was a broom so I could sweep the leaves off the porches. Everything was just perfect and I have absolutely no complaints. I will definitely stay here again.

This week was exactly what our family needed in our lives. Dominic the owner worked with us every step of the way and was A text message away if we needed any information. His house is absolutely gorgeous and has everything you would need and more. The location is perfect a couple minutes walk from the pool and Lake beach, hiking trails everywhere, bike rides in Jim Thorpe! We truly had the time of our lives and would come back anytime! My children are already talking about returning next year and What they will explore. Thank you for such a great vacation!

We had a great time at this condo - it is every bit as stylish and well-kept as in the photos! It is especially nice to sit out on the back deck looking out on the woods. The neighborhood is nice and forested. The kitchen is fully stocked with equipment for cooking. The club was nice and we enjoyed ping pong and the pool. Our only disappointment was that the water in the lake was very low, making it a little less appealing than I bet it typically is. We appreciated the excellent communication with the owners. Highly recommend!

My husband and I booked this townhome for a fall foliage vacay. It was the perfect style, design and location for everything we wanted to do. The owner renovated it perfectly. It was the right mix of luxury and rustic. Oh, and that bathtub! I felt like I woke up in a treehouse with the most amazing view in the morning. At night, I would cozy up by the fireplace with a good book and great music. Deer and other furry critters showed up at dusk. This was a slice of heaven for us. We did not want to leave! The owner was super nice and very helpful. We'll be back in the Spring

We had an amazing stay! Check in was absolutely seamless; this even after I misplaced the door code. The property was spotless and everything was well placed and easily accessible. The house is completely updated inclusive of a beautiful, clean, relaxing tub. The location is optimal for hikes, sightseeing, water parks, and casinos. The kids had a ball and so did the adults 😃
Being from NYC during this pandemic has been extremely hard. The access to outside space is incredibly limited. The kids roaming free and my wife and I taking in the sun and rain from the porch were the best parts of the trip. In a sentence; STOP LOOKING and BOOK THIS HOME!

Very cute, clean place. The main bedroom on second floor has an extremely comfortable bed and quilt, total comfort. Kitchen had all the essentials, rooms are spacious, and bedrooms cozy. We had a few deer that kept coming to back of house and we loved them. Had a part of the faucet brake during our stay and the owner was very understanding about it. Everything that we needed was short drives away. The pool was nice but freezing, the sign said heated pool but it def wasn’t. Amazing little place, great for families spending time together. Thanks for the memories:)
