Highland Hideaway by AvantStay | Poconos Retreat w Game Room + 3 min to Skiing!

This spacious retreat is designed for a group! From five comfortable bedrooms to a sunny deck to enjoy the fresh air, Highland Hideaway puts the best of the Poconos at your fingertips!

Outside, discover a private deck complete with an outdoor dining table (umbrella for shade), and a BBQ grill for cookouts. There’s also a bonus sitting area under the deck where you’ll find some casual seating and a lounger.

Inside, tall ceilings and cozy decor give Highland Hideaway a warm and inviting atmosphere. The primary living area has a television, comfortable seating, and a fireplace, while nearby, the dining table has seating for 7-8 (including bench seating). The gourmet, fully equipped kitchen offers additional barstool seating and has everything you need for at-home preparing and serving.

The lower-level game room features foosball, a Wheel of Fortune Casinocade game, and an additional TV to give your group a secondary place to play and connect. The upper loft area offers an additional sleeping space, while five comfortable bedrooms and three full bathrooms ensure everyone has a space to call their own.

Beautiful home

The home was very spacious being that it is 3 levels. I’d like to not that it does have a master bedroom on the main floor which is perfect for a one handicap. My mom has trouble with stairs and it was perfect for her so she didn’t have to go up or down stairs while inside. We had our family Christmas there over new years week with 11 of us and it was very nice! The location is very close to split rock resort so that was nice since we went to the waterpark. Beds were nice and comfy, 3.5 baths were perfect! We would definitely stay here again! Also the price was much cheaper than other places that were the same size, don’t let that fool you, it’s a very nice place!
