Family & Pet Retreat-2 Amazing Game Rooms-FencedYd-Pool-Beach-JimThorpe-Speedway

Thank you for considering My Vacation Property Rental (MVP Rental) for your upcoming trip to the Poconos. This was my family home until it was converted to a vacation property in 2023. I have owned and been hosting people at homes in this resort community since 2011. Over the years, across multiple properties, I have managed thousands of reservations and have gained the expertise to offer a relaxing retreat for both you and your pets.

Having multiple game rooms, a theater room area, multiple seating areas, TVs in all rooms, and large deck, there are spaces for everyone. Pet lovers will appreciate the fully fenced backyard which provides a safe space for dogs to play. The wire mesh fence extends from the top rail to the ground keeping your pets contained. There has never been a reported escape, though deer do jump the fence often to graze in the yard.

Thank you again, and please reach out if you have any questions. I’m happy to answer any you may have.

Host was very welcoming - we arrived in the dark, and appreciated the lights were on for us. Really lovely and comfortable home with plenty of space for the 6 grown ups, 2 little girls baby. Appreciated the 'little things' - coffee, spices, dishwasher pods - and plenty of dishes and pots and pans to do some cooking and eating in. Wonderful fenced in backyard too. Great communication with the host. And the games were fun for all of us!

It was like being at home. We brought some quick food to make and everything we needed was there. The wild life out side was crazy just to see all the deer so close. The game rooms were great and kept everyone entertained into the wee hours of the morning and the sleeping arrangements were perfect. Six of us and a toddler and 2 dogs and a puppy. We were all comfortable. This is a great place to book and not too far from Jim Thorp
