"The Lure" Delightful, Private Waterfront Getaway

The Lure is a fully renovated 1940s fishing cabin reimagined into romantic waterfront retreat for 2 on the glacial waters of Round Pond in Lake Harmony. Designed for couples, this home pairs vintage charm with modern indulgence--private hot tub beneath the stars, crackling wood-burning fireplace, fire lit evenings by the shore, and quiet mornings drifting by canoe. Secluded yet moments from adventure: hiking, dining, skiing, Jim Thorpe, and Pocono Raceway--where romance lingers and time slows.

The hosts of this property are highly attentive and genuinely invested in ensuring you have an exceptional stay and experience. We're located less than 30 minutes away with a team on hand to ensure every detail of your stay is seamless and memorable.

Nestled in between Round Pond and Big Boulder Lake in Lake Harmony, Pennsylvania -- "The Lure" offers the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience. Set on a private drive lined with several other small, waterfront fishing cabins, it feels like your very own lakefront retreat. Within walking distance is Big Boulder View Tavern. Just a two-minute drive brings you to Big Boulder Ski Resort and Split Rock Resort.

HOT TUB ACCESS
Our hot tub is available year-round for guest use and is professionally cleaned and maintained between each stay. For your comfort and safety, we recommend bringing outdoor sandals, bathing suits, and robes for the short walk between the cabin and the hot tub. Hooks are provided to hang personal items while you enjoy your soak. Towels for hot tub are provided for use during your stay.

This is a private cabin with a main floor living room, eat-in kitchen, and bathroom. The bedroom is located on the 2nd floor loft space.

Easily accessed yet tucked away, The Lure is a private waterfront cabin with private parking. It offers a serene escape on the private waters of Round Pond. 5 minute drive from Big Boulder Ski Resort, Big Boulder Lake, and Split Rock Resort--adventure is always close at hand. 10 minute drive to Jack Frost Ski Resort and golf course, the hiking trials of Hickory Run State Park, and the thrills of Pocono Raceway. 20 minutes from historic Jim Thorpe, shopping at Pocono Premium Outlets, and excitement of Kalahari, Camelback, and Great Wolf Lodge. Do it all or simply do nothing and let the lakefront tranquility carry you away.

Absolutely beautiful home with excellent amenities. The fireplace kept us warm, and the view was lovely. The property was exactly as shown in the listing—inviting, impeccably clean, and well organized. The location was ideal, with plenty of nearby restaurants, and having a ski resort close by was a great bonus. I would definitely recommend this home and hope to rebook in the spring, summer, or late fall.Thank you!!!

The cabin was lovely. It was maybe 550 ft.². I think it said but it had a nice feel the only thing that's small Is that if you're 6 foot tall or taller you're not gonna be able to stand up in the bedroom loft because of the Ceiling slant but everything else was perfect and clean. The hot tub was nice. The view was very good and it's close to restaurants and pubs and I would definitely stay here again

This cabin was perfect for a couple looking to relax and kick back. The property was clean and cozy. Furniture was new and comfortable. Towels, blankets, sheets and household items were available and useable. Appliances are new. It rained for a lot of the time we stayed but we relaxed and lit a fire and watched movies. Lots of great local dining nearby and plenty of hiking options. Everything is a short drive away but you feel remote where the cabin is located. James was reachable for questions. The pond view from the property is gorgeous. Very serene and private to sit on the deck or the bottom landing near the pond and just connect with your surroundings. We saw some wildlife around the yard and a bear when we visited Hickory Springs Park. If bringing a pet there are close options to allow them to stretch their paws within a short drive. Such a wonderful property we will definitely re-book.

I stayed at this wonderful house for 3 weeks to see family and escape the FL heat. Everything was just perfect. Can’t recommend this property enough!! I loved having coffee on the back deck daily, taking long walks around Lake Harmony, fire’s in the evening and watching all the wildlife. I did not want to leave!!

The house was well appointed, clean, cozy and we had all we needed for a wonderful vacation. Owners were very kind and answered our questions quickly and provided local spots to visit and dine. Great experience!

Wonderful relaxing weekend. Beautiful views of the lake from the deck, hot tub and fire pit. Cabin was we’ll appointed and very clean. There is a small road to walk your dog. The other road is busier but there is a decent unpaved shoulder.

Wintry getaway

My wife and I stayed here for a long weekend getaway to celebrate a milestone birthday. It was very peaceful and serene. Couldn’t get enough of the view. The bungalow was perfectly designed and owners go above and beyond to provide excellent amenities like linens, towels, shampoo/conditioner, kitchen items etc. even a dyson hair dryer that my wife loved. This made it easy to get away and maximize our time at the cottage bc we could instantly begin relaxing when we walked in. We enjoyed a couple restaurants in the nearby area. The hot tub was just amazing set right by the lake! It was overall a great vacation!

Look no further for a Couples Retreat

Let me just say, I would love to have a house like this one. The view of the pond every morning was spectacular. The cabin is cozy and comfortable. We did some cooking in the kitchen which was enough space for two people. The hot tub was amazing, even with snow on the ground. James was extremely communicative and helpful throughout our stay. We did go to the Tavern down the street and the food and atmosphere there was also excellent. I would absolutely recommend this place for a couples getaway and we look forward to booking again!

Perfect Holiday Getaway!

My partner and I spent 4 days, 3 nights over Thanksgiving at "The Lure" on Round Pond. The property was exactly as described and the hosts had gone above and beyond to ensure that our every need was met. We could not have asked for anything to improve our stay. The cottage was perfectly clean, well equipped, and stocked with all necessary essentials (and more). I am not sure what we enjoyed more: watching sunset over the lake from the outdoor hot tub or watching sunrise creep over the glorious pond and its surrounds from the comfort of the indoor fireplace and comfy sofa. We enjoyed the host's much appreciated recommendations for local eateries very much, and ambled our way around some local hiking trails. It really was a perfect couple's getaway in an ideal setting. If only all hosts paid as much attention to detail as James and Jillian do. We will definitely be back.
