Vacation rentals with beach access in Carbon County

As we left, we promised to leave a “bajillion star” review. Ronnie and Derek’s place is simply one of the best, perhaps even the best, Airbnb we’ve stayed at. Wonderful location, peaceful atmosphere, *immaculate* cleanliness, thoughtful touches (the bread and fresh-cut flowers) and kind, attentive but not overbearing hosts. We had picked their place last-minute, only to discover a location that we’ll return to again and again when needing an escape from the city. Love it and highest recommendation!

Annmarie’s place was perfect for our weekend getaway! The neighborhood was quiet and convenient, a super short drive or ski in to Jack Frost. The bedrooms were very large with plenty of bed space for our trip. The kitchen was well stocked and allowed us to cook dinner both nights. We had a wonderful stay!

We had the best ever Polish Family Picnic Re-Union again, in the PL State Park, again staying with Ms. Elwira, Somewhere In Time! Our thanks to her, and her family, including Mona the Shephard, for creating and inspiring us to grow upward, towards and closer to God! The BEST place to stay for us!!😃

The stay at Dalias place was incredible. We were early to our reservation and she let us check in early and it was very seamless. The location is BREATHTAKING right on the lake and feels very private and homey. Very clean and very comfortable beds. We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely come back. Highly recommend!!

Enjoyed my stay tremendously. It was like having a snug nest in the forest. Yet, you could hop in the car and visit nearby stores and restaurants in minutes. I especially liked the park that was just down the road where I walked my dog every day. All in all a great place.

Had a fantastic time with my boyfriend at Elwira's place! We had to cut our trip short but the time we did spend there was awesome. Elwira was very friendly and it was the perfect location, close to all our favorite spots.

Ben was incredibly accommodating with our early check in and late check out request. The premises were extremely beautiful! We look forward to visiting in the summer as well!

Great spot in the Poconos/Jim Thorpe area. Beautiful property in a quiet neighborhood. Only minutes from Downtown Jim Thorpe and Penns Peak. Plenty of fun games and activities at the house for kids and adults. My daughter and I, and a few friends had a great weekend. Will definitely check this place next time I'm in the area. Highly recommend. Bill was a very responsive host.

The home was exactly as described and a great fit for our group of 10 adults. Our host was very communicative and responsive to questions/concerns. The kitchen was well stocked and everything was in working order. There is plenty to do in the house on poor weather days as well as lots to do nearby. The community is well cared for and easy to navigate (no formal gate to wait to enter/exit). I would recommend this property and would stay again in the future. The water pressure in the shower needs improvement. One word of warning for those with mobility issues: the stairs between levels of the house are very steep and the steps are narrow enough that you have to change the angle your feet as you descend.

Great place for large groups! Thank you for being so responsive. We had a great time!

We had a great time. Beautiful property and perfect location. We traveled into Jim Thorpe (about 10 min drive) for the Fall Foliage Festival and dinner Friday night.

Tom’s place was amazing and he is a great host; extremely accommodating. Two friends and I needed a last minute place to stay due to feeling uncomfortable at our previous airbnb, and Tom accepted our booking quickly at almost 9pm when we were in a hurry. We appreciated having a comfortable, clean, and welcoming space to make us feel better after a bad experience. The house is beautiful, clean, and inviting and I would come back any time. Thank you Tom!

We stayed at this property for my dad’s 67th bday and our dog’s 3rd birthday and we had such an amazing time. It was warm, peaceful, and overall so beautiful and relaxing . Bill was nothing short of an exceptional host and he was super quick to respond to any of our questions and was available to us all throughout the weekend! He was so kind and really did pull through for us in every which way. I’d come back here again in a heartbeat. Thank you for everything bill 🙏

Spent a weekend in Blakeslee with 5 college friends. The place was comfortable and well-appointed in regard to amenities. Kitchen was well stocked. Bedrooms and bathrooms were roomy and comfortable as was the social space. The pit is unique feature of this property we appreciated, and the fireplace made the setting cozy (temperature was 10 degrees). TV was oversized and couches were comfortable. A highlight of the stay was the immense hot tub on the back patio. Would have enjoyed exploring the other features of the property and Lake Harmony area more but the weather made it difficult. Things to do locally but requires driving a bit to get to these places. Overall, very enjoyable weekend and would return in the future.

My family and I rented Jonathan's place as a long-term rental during ski season. We wanted to be close to Big Boulder given our involvement in the race program and the place could not have been more conveniently located (it was also great being able to walk to Boulder View Tavern for apres ski!). The unit was just like it was described, and Jonathan was always incredibly responsive if we ever needed anything. This place became our "home away from home" for ski season and we were truly sad to pack up on our last day. Highly recommend both this unit and Jonathan (I believe he has other properties) to anyone considering a stay in the Poconos. Fantastic experience and absolutely wonderful host!!

Great apartment for a ski weekend to Big Boulder. Clean, cozy, comfortable apartment that easily fit our family of 6 (2 adults and 4 kids). We visited in the winter but could easily see how the apartment would be great during the summer, fall, and even spring. Beautiful view, well-appointed and comfortable. Highly recommended!

We had a fantastic time at Amy’s place. It was exactly as described, and was a wonderfully decorated and warm apartment with beautiful views. Thank you Amy!

We stayed at Sharon’s for a weekend of skiing. Sharon’s ski condo was absolutely lovely. It was clean and neat. It was decorated so nice and felt so cozy! The views of the lake and mountain were beautiful. It was a very peaceful. We absolutely loved it. The location was great for skiing at big boulder. Sharon was a the best host as communication was excellent and Sharon was so friendly. She allowed us to check out a little later in the date of our departure. There was tons of information on all local places etc and a guest handbook with any/all information you would need. We will absolutely be back! Thank you Sharon for sharing your ski condo with our family

We really enjoyed our stay at this comfortable and perfectly located condo with a beautiful lake view. It was very roomy with plenty of space for all guests. Joanne was an excellent communicator, proactively providing all of the information we needed for a smooth checkin and seamless experience. We would love to come back in the warm weather and take advantage of the pool and lake. Thanks, Joanne!

Scott’s place was very nice and peaceful. We stayed at several properties in the Jack Frost development, and this one was the nicest. Check in was easy and flexible with an electronic door lock. It was clean and well kept. The bed was comfortable. The washer and dryer in the unit were definitely helpful. The amenities were as listed and we had everything we needed. I would absolutely stay here again without any hesitation.

Very clean, tidy and felt like home. Exactly like pictured. Easy to find and check in/out. Will stay here again if given the chance.

This property was not available due to a maintenance issue so we were booked at a similar condo in the same development. We enjoyed the lake view and the pool. The swim beach was close but you have to drive a few minutes to get there, and we didn’t check it out this time. The condo was clean and well-stocked with everything we needed, including plenty of towels and linens, cleaning supplies, and laundry soap. Some of the activities we enjoyed with approximate travel times were 1) fish and pay lake (20-30 minutes away), 2) scenic train ride at Jim Thorpe (30 minutes away) 3) Bushkill Falls (1 hour) 4) Crayola experience (1 hour).
