Timber framed cabin nestled in the Pocono Mountains on a private 400 acre estate

Escape to the beauty of nature! You may never have stayed in cabins quite like ours. Hand built by the owner with wood from the land, they are an unmatched combination of comfort and charm. Overlooking a beautiful brook and mountain view, with trails to the Lehigh River Gorge, the setting offers tranquil scenery and sounds. Come and enjoy the best of nature amongst cozy amenities and great outdoor adventure.

Not only are our cabins nestled privately on the 400 acre estate, but is surrounded by 30,000 acres of state park land. Get away from the pressures of everyday life as you disappear into ultimate relaxation at The Brookside Lodges. Your romantic getaway or adventurous retreat awaits you.

Our luxurious rustic cabins offer 3BR, 2 baths (one with a clawfoot tub. The sound of the brook can be heard as you soak peacefully), with spacious open ceilings and skylights. It can comfortably house up to seven, although if you are only two, you will still find it cozy. Covered porches and balconies, on both levels, provide a spectacular treetop view of the brook, pond, and surrounding nature. Fern Cabin is decorated with unique and rare root furniture, fireplace, fully equipped kitchen, and prepared with fresh bed linens and towels. Primary suite contains a king sized bed; other bedroom has a queen, and a bunk bed room featuring a full bottom and twin top in a private room with bathroom. The cabin is stocked with board games and game room for fun family evenings. You will feel warm and welcomed the moment you step through our door.

Enjoy hiking to our 50 ft waterfall and the Lehigh River. You can fish our pond; swim in a spring fed swimming pond, or just relax in breathtaking silence. For the more adventurous (or to just relax and float around) there are tubes and paddle boats to use in our natural spring fed swimming pond. Your private bonfire area, supplied with wood, will be ready for evening s'more roasting and stargazing (no light pollution, you can see the Milky Way!) Endless activities are available no matter what the season.
** ice skate on the pond when conditions permit!

Hike & cross country ski to your heart’s content. Miles of private trails run along the brook through the woods and mountains. The scenery is beautiful and nature abounds. You will find the terrain appropriate for all ages.
