The Space
★ "There were so many nice and thoughtful touches everywhere. It will be more than you expect. Great Hosts and location too!"
At Poplar Cottage, every aspect of your stay has been designed to encourage relaxation, recovery, and reconnection.
Throughout the home, you’ll feel inspired by furnishings from luxury brands such as West Elm, Crate & Barrel, Pottery Barn, Grandin Road, and Restoration Hardware. The fully equipped kitchen, with GE and Smeg appliances, allows you to create a home-cooked (or grilled!) meal to enjoy either at the large dining table or outdoor Polywood table. Grab a book from our shelf and cozy up by the fireplace, connect to the Sonos speakers and fill the house with music, or head up to the loft to game on the retro console. In the evening, gather around the fire pit to craft s'mores using the Solo Stove or warm up by the chiminea. When you're ready to relax, stream your favorite shows on one of the many smart TVs throughout the Cottage.
And when you are ready to venture out, we highly recommend a walk around the community lake or a quick drive to one of the many nearby Poconos attractions.
