Rocky Road Chalet - Masthope

ABOUT THE COMMUNITY
Masthope Mountain Community has a little for everyone to enjoy. Old or young, you can always find something to do. Like to hike, there are hiking trails close to our property. Swim or fish, the lake is just a short drive away. If your more into pools and playgrounds, head up to the top of the mountain and enjoy the two outdoor pools in the summer and the Summit Bar and Restaurant all year round.
The community requires a completed reservation form with guests’ names, email addresses and vehicle information be submitted 7 days prior to arrival. Any reservation made 7 days or closer to the arrival date will pay an additional $25 for late booking registration.
AMENITY PASSES are available for use by a guest on a pay per day basis.

Masthope’s premier ski park, Ski Big Bear, is a great place to ski. Take advantage of their Ski School and help your young ones learn to ski.

For Spring Renters:
Yes, you will need a fishing license. The outdoor pool isn't open till Memorial Day and then it's only open on the weekends until they go full time which is usually around the 3rd week of June. The lake will be accessible but without lifeguards or boat rentals also until they go full time sometime in June. So you can fish the lake from the shoreline. The horseback riding/stables and petting zoo will be open but it's always best to call ahead since weather plays a big part in what is open and not. The hiking trails are always open, the riverfront is available and the playgrounds/ball fields/courts are always open.

***Our home is NOT listed as Pet Friendly. We understand that many of you feel you have very well-behaved dogs but our policy is strict. Please do not inquire if we will make an exception. Thank you!

Family reunion
Six siblings and spouses gather each year and finding a place with lots of beds and bathrooms is our challenge. This place had just what we needed- beds, bathrooms, huge dining room table, well equipped kitchen with plenty of dishes. Three gathering areas on three floors, and two gathering areas outside. It was just what we needed. Minor issue with the front door code and locking, but the manager was very responsive and helpful.

Family Vacay
Rocky Road Chalet was perfect for our extended family vacation. We were 6 adults and 2 children with more than enough room to spread out. Especially loved the huge dining room table that allowed for family meals all together. With the upstairs lift and downstairs game room, there was plenty of space to enjoy. All rooms were spacious and well appointed. My two suggestions would be to place both picnic tables on one deck so large groups could eat outside together and definitely a bigger refrigerator would have been very helpful. We had a wonderful time at both beach and pool and will be back again in the future!

Weekend Retreat
The house is new and in immaculate condition. Everything in the description is accurate and pictures don't do it justice. We had a semi large group of friends stay over and were all pleased by the amount of amenities that both the house and the community had to offer. The property was clean, neat and provided us with ample opportunity to enjoy our stay. The only possible downside is the drive from NYC as you have to take local roads for part of the trip. But, in my opinion, it was worth it. Would like to come back again some time.

Fun Weekend
We had two families together for a ski weekend. We had a great time. The house was perfect. Exactly like the description and the pictures. We had 11 adults and 2 children and we had plenty of room. We brought some of our own games but there is a closet FULL of games. We had a great time. Thank you for providing Deer food. The deer actually came up and ate the food right out of my grandsons hand. Thanks for sharing your house with us!

Peaceful and quiet
Our family of 8 adults and 9 children (ages 11-9 months) were very comfortable in this lovely house in the woods. The children had a great time playing on the rocks in the yard. The children loved seeing the deer in the yard and named all of them. We enjoyed both the pool and the lake. Nearby Fort Delaware was a great place to visit. We also had some great hikes at the Minisink Battlefield, the towpath and bridge area, and the Zane Grey property in Lackawaxen. Lots of good hiking nearby. Our only complaint is that the people at the office where we got our passes were not very friendly or welcoming.

Fantastic house with lots of games
I will list of out all the positives we thought was good, - We were given code to enter the house in advance. So no need to wait for key or anything. - The day we traveled (in February), it was snowy and crazy cold/chilly outside, but when we entered the house first time it was PRE WARM. The heater was ON and we were extremely delighted that we don't have to wait in he house in jackets to be warm. - The house was neat and clean with beautiful hangings and decorative pieces. - The best part of house was the loft on top floor & game room in the bottom. Really glad we chose this house. - We were 13 adults + 3 children (2 toddler and 1 infant). Everyone had great time, kids enjoyed and adults enjoyed too. - There were 4-5 TVs in almost each room/floor. Main floor TV had chromecast as well. - The only thing that was missing from instructions was - Wifi password, but i just called owner and he gave password of Wifi over the phone. We enjoyed our stay thoroughly and surely will consider again to stay here sometime in summer.

Amazing Family Christmas Vacation!
We had a wonderful time at the Rocky Road House! It was extremely clean and super spacious for our family of 14 (8 adults ranging from 76 to 18, and 6 kids from 17 to 9). The game room and the downstairs living room was where the younger kids spent most of their time, and the adults had the large main living room. The loft was huge and was a great place for the teenage girls to sleep and have their own space. There was plenty of comfortable beds for everyone. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything needed; pots, pans, bowls, dishes, utensils, soap, etc. The dining table was large enough for all. The plus for the kids (and adults) were the deer coming up to our deck for food, which provided at the house. At one point we counted 18 deer patiently waiting to eat. Big Bear for skiing and tubing was about 5+ minutes away, with a restaurant and a small food court. It was very convenient if someone wanted to come back to the house and go skiing later. We had a glitch on not using the electronic lock correctly, but Cindi answered right away and we were able to get into the house. There is a small marketplace at Big Bear for essentials; milk, bread, eggs, cold cuts, etc, some groceries. The supermarket is about 25 minutes away , a pleasant drive in the mountains. It was a wonderful family vacation, and would highly recommend staying at the Rocky Road House. The owner and Cindi has seen to all the details that a family would need to have a comfortable and terrific time!

Very well equipped and fun space
We were supposed to be six adults with three children but one of the grandkids got sick so they didn’t make it. Even if they had been with us the house would have been a fun and roomy accommodation. Ping pong and air hockey are always enjoyable. Kitchen was well equipped! Very comfortable. It was a 43 minute drive and too far away from our wedding site in Milford but I should have asked more questions.

one of the better places we have stayed at in the Poconos we were a little disappointed that the internet was too slow to be very useful; another suggestion was the shower in the main bathroom needs a bar for elderly people to use when taking a shower

AMAZING V_CAY
Rocky Road was a wonderful house to stay in for our family vacation. We were a family of 11 including children ages 5-18. The house was so clean, spacious and had so much living space. It was perfect in every way. The downstairs had a huge ping pong table, air hockey, 2 bedrooms and a pull out sofa as well, and a full bath. The main level had the kitchen island with seating for 4 and a huge dining room table that seats 14 people, and a big living room with lots of seating as well. A bedroom and a bathroom, with a laundry room next to it. The deck was newly built, with a grill and picnic table right off the dining room. Upstairs was the loft area. With a huge room, several couches, a futon to sleep and a video game system in the loft and the bedroom. It also has a foosball game in the loft and in the living room. The loft also has 2 bedrooms with a bathroom. The front yard has a big porch with chairs and a picnic table. A fire pit is in the front year and the deer will visit every day. The house has a closet full of children's board games. The amenities in the community are wonderful!!! The 2 pools are very big and one has water slides and a diving board. Mini golf is also near the pool area. The lake has paddle boats and kayaks, a playground is near the pool and also at the lake. Basketball, tennis courts and paddle ball courts are also available. For all these amenities you can buy passes on a daily basis. These amenities were wonderful and we all enjoyed it so very much!!! All this was located within a 5 minute drive from the house. I highly recommend this house!!! It was WONDERFUL and our grandchildren and children had a great time!!!!

Wonderful Family Vacation
This was our first time renting a vacation house and it was wonderful! The house is just as pictured-so clean, lots of separate sleeping and socializing spaces inside, and a great front porch and back deck. The daily visits from the local deer were an added bonus. A short drive to the pool and the lake. We especially loved spending time at the lake for swimming, fishing and kayaking. The pool area was spotless and extra fun with the slides and new pool area. We highly recommend this house and community.

Disliked: Check-in
Beautiful, peaceful spot
Location is scenic and peaceful, quiet neighborhood with plenty of nature. House was as advertised and well-appointed. Check-in process was an unnecessary headache with multiple forms, and a needless trip to an office in another area with inconvenient hours for checking in.

Nice place. Nice layout.
Overall nice place nice layout. Only thing is it’s a little dated and could use some sprucing up. Overall layout was great if the house. The carpet as soon as you walk-in is a little challenging trying to keep clean. The property you can visually see has been rented out a lot but kept nice pretty much. Overall cleanliness is good just dated. Could use some new pots and pans and a new bbq. Ping pong table was fun but was found previously broken and glued together. The house was under construction and they where installing a new deck I believe so the side yard was half dug up.
