The Pocono Mountains in eastern Pennsylvania provide an all-seasons playground for those seeking a quick getaway from Philadelphia or even New York City.
Hiking or kayaking in the summertime, skiing in the winter or just enjoying some outlet shopping or a trip to the resort spa — however you like to spend your time away from home, you can probably do it in the Poconos.
However, as so many people flock to this destination, you may find yourself craving a little alone time. Getting that alone time and seclusion doesn’t mean sacrificing your taste for the fine life, though. You can have resort-level luxury and a little piece of the mountains all to yourself, with one of these 10 luxury Pocono cabin rentals.

Why you should stay: A property that’s ready for a party
- Sleeps: 20
- Minimum Stay: 2 nights
- Rates from: $700/night

The host welcomes parties of all types and even will hook you up with some on-site catering or shuttle service to nearby spots like casinos, wineries and more. The private property is situated on multiple acres in the woods, so there are no neighbors to disturb, but you’re still close enough to town to easily shop or check out the sites.

Of course, you won’t need to give up all your favorite vacation amenities in exchange for all this style. The villa offers in-demand perks such as a sauna, hot tub and even an EV charger for juicing up your ride.

8. West End Pond Home
Why you should stay: Just the right size
- Sleeps: 9
- Minimum Stay: 2 nights
- Rates from: $725/night
When you’re looking for the perfect Poconos vacation rental, you’ll see that most of your luxury options have one thing in common: They’re big, sprawling, hulking houses that offer tons of bedrooms and spots to sleep. But if you’re not traveling with that many people, you might find that large size overwhelming. For smaller families or groups who want enough space, but not too much space, the West End Pond Home delivers with its five bedrooms and three bathrooms.
The home sports a very traditional cabin feel inside, with a large stone fireplace, lots of wood and windows overlooking the water. The outdoor space really impresses, though, with a huge lawn with a fire ring and Adirondack chairs, kayaks for use on the water, and a big multi-level deck with lots of seating. Extra fun features include an indoor jacuzzi tub overlooking the water, a separate television room and access to the deck from the owners suite.
