Property was very clean inside and out. Interior decorating was top notch which gave it the true vacation home feel. Activities provided at the home were perfect for our teens to keep busy. Kitchen was well equipped to handle our family of 4. Neighborhood was quiet and location was perfect to walk the dog around the block. Be prepared to walk up and down a lot of steps here though as the living space is on the second floor. This was as expected but was hard work loading and unloading on arrival/departure.

My family and I really enjoyed our stay here this past Fourth of July. The house itself is spacious and the decorations around the house were very cute. The kitchen was throughly stocked with plenty of seasonings and even candy for the kids. There were also plenty of fun little games on the first floor for a rainy day. There were many fun amenities around the development, plenty of pools and beaches nearby to bring the whole family. Additionally if you are interested in fishing the house is quite close to Lake Wallenpaupack, only 20 minutes away. Overall the house was very relaxing and we throughly enjoyed our stay.
My only complaints would be some areas being quite tight such as the staircase on the first floor, however my family typically used the outside staircase instead. Additionally the driveway was a bit smaller than I would have thought and fitting a truck, Suv and a boat was a tight fit.

We were looking for a place to stay to have a short (and much needed) break. This place was great. Thanks for everything.

We stayed for a long weekend in February to ski at Elk Mountain. Everything about the Bluebird Hideaway is cozy! You can tell the owners take pride in their home and want you to have a great stay. We've stayed at several pet-friendly homes in the Hideout, Bluebird Hideaway is our favorite.
Pros: Tons to do, pool table, dart board, games etc
The kitchen is loaded with everything you'll need and a great coffee maker.
3 full bathrooms! Easy access to a washer and dryer.
Everything is super clean and well taken care of.
Cons: we weren't fans of the shower in the large jacuzzi tub difficult to get in / out.
The downstairs fireplace was very aesthetic but wasn't working.
The pros far outweigh any cons and we would recommend Bluebird Hideway to friends and family. We hope to plan a return stay soon!

We were here in November so could not utilize the decks (very cold). But over all, the house had everything we needed for our stay. Stairs in house are quite steep and narrow, so take them slow. Would not recommend for elderly. Beds were comfortable. 4-season porch is nice for game night!

The house is cutely and cleanly maintained. It was well-suited for our group of six humans and one dog.

Nice clean property with lots of amenities included which you don’t usually get in a rental (soap, q-tips, firewood, smores, etc). Plenty of space for family to spread out with multiple decks and indoor living spaces). We would go back!

The small touches and detail made the property a special place to stay.

We really liked our stay! The property was clean and there were several spaces for hanging out (with carpeting) including the finished basement and the nice downstairs bathrooms. The gas grill hooked up to a large tank out back made it easy for grilling. The close proximity to the pool/lake was great! The house did not provide beach towels in the linens/towels package which was inconvenient (we ended up having to buy them at the store). The other thing of note is the staircases inside are steep for both older people and young children and the balcony inside is not fully boarded so we had to keep a close eye on our toddler. There are several nice places to travel in the complex including the playgrounds/fields, the other pool/playground at the north end, and the petting zoo near Hamlin.

Communication with property manager was amazing throughout the entire stay for random questions. The property was really well kept and easy to navigate around the house. Two minute drive to the amenities. I would recommend this property

We were visiting relatives in The Hideout and they had just moved in. Ironically this house was right in back of them so it was a perfect location for us. The ability to bring our pups was huge and the house was very dog friendly. It was comfortable and very clean. They had a lot of snacks and games that kept us very busy. It was a rainy weekend but luckily this house had everything we needed.

This is our 4th time renting different houses at The Hideout and this has been our favorite! Most houses provide the basic things (dishes, paper towels, pots & pans, etc...) but this house had that and more. They had plenty of paper towels, trash bags, spices and everything you could possibly need in the kitchen. They also had a wonderful welcome basket of yummy snacks to welcome us. For a house that allowed pets, the place was spotless and didn't smell like febreeze trying to cover any odors. The owner and rental agent was very responsive in a timely manner with any questions we had. My ONLY wish is that this house only allows 6 people when I think it could accommodate 8. That would be the only thing that would prevent us from returning if we wanted to come back with another family that had more kids. Otherwise, this house is a perfect getaway and I would highly recommend!

We had a beautiful time and we felt at home. From the check in to any questions we had it was answered quickly. The home was so beautiful and clean and you felt the amazing good vibes walking inside home. The owners thought of anything you may have forgotten they had you. Winery was close by even Walmart and ski area. Neighborhood is so quiet we even got to see deer’s at the backyard the girls enjoyed. Owner left s’mores, goodies and beautiful Christmas decor for the family thank you so much we definitely will be returning in the summer this time. Thank you for our unforgettable Christmas getaway from the city ♥️

My wife and I stayed here with our 1 year old for a few days in the middle of summer and had a great time. We loved the community and the surrounding area and really enjoyed our time in the house. Everything is well laid out and there is plenty of space. Things are clearly labeled to make your stay even easier (if you've ever stayed in a rental where the switches aren't labeled and you have no idea how to turn things on and off you know what I'm talking about). The only thing I would note is that if you are clumsy like I am, be careful on the stairs to the top floor, they are short and you could easily take a tumble if you're not paying attention. But otherwise we had an amazing time and would definitely stay here again or recommend it to friends and family.

Cute house
Cute house in a convenient location. We enjoyed hanging out in the sunroom and on the deck, and appreciated all of the Hideout amenities. Even saw some deer in the yard!

Fun Family Weekend
My family had a blast renting this property. Everything was clean and easy to find. There were a lot of personal touches that really made this place feel like home away from home! With this property based on birds, my kids did a scavenger hunt and found 70 birds throughout the house by the end of our trip! My family did not want to leave and we would absolutely stay here again! Thank you for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home!

Summer get away
Thank you for the perfect get away! My children loved ALL the wonderful games and Pool table! They loved the multi floors too. Although we brought our own paper towels, cocoa, sugar, oil, etc., they owners made sure everything was stocked. The place was clean and cozy with plenty to do inside and outside the house. And everything you can think of doing was found inside the The Hideout community.

ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL STAY!!
I love everything about this rental property, from the decor, the quiet neighborhood, the gated community & the coziness of the home once you step foot in the door! My partner and I had such a relaxing experience sitting outside on the deck & enjoying the grill. I would give this place 10 stars if I could & we do plan to return again in the future. Thank you so much for sharing your space

“Bird House”
A comfortable cozy home….. once we got the heaters working properly. We enjoyed the nice couches, fireplace and jacuzzi tub. The main thing needed is better lighting. The community offered many activities…..

Had a great weekend getaway
The house was super clean when we arrived and was pretty stocked with kitchenware, paper products, and cleaners. Loved the goodie, welcome basket as well as the hot cocoa mixes and s’mores kit. We also appreciated the cute Valentine’s Day decor and of course the firepit/fireplace. The kids really liked the game room and while we were leaving I noticed how many board games were actually in the house. The only thing I was concerned about were the stairs to the top floor…as the steps are a little small. Just need to be careful (and there are signs all over the house to warn you). Other than that one thing, great place for families in the mountains! We enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful home, adorable interior design details ( cozy pillows, blankets), spacious, great for large groups. We came for a long weekend and invited siblings to join, we enjoyed cooking on the grill and in the kitchen ( it’s well stocked with everything you’ll need!). Lots of room to play games together, eat together, yet also spacious enough to not be on top of each other at night. We are already planning our next visit!
