Bear Paw Lodge by AvantStay | Sleeps 19 | Hot Tub + Game Room | Lake Harmony

Bear Paw Lodge gives a big group room to spread out without ever losing the feeling of being together. In the main living area, vaulted ceilings and tall windows pull the surrounding Pocono woods inside, and the living room, kitchen, and dining space open into one another to form the natural center of the house. A stone fireplace anchors the room as its architectural centerpiece, framed by the same views you get from the wrap-around deck just outside. The kitchen is fully equipped for real cooking, with barstool seating for whoever wants to keep the cook company. Dinner can land wherever the group wants it — around the indoor table or out on the deck, where two dining tables and a grill make an evening BBQ easy. Head downstairs and the mood shifts toward play. A second living area flows into a game room with a ping pong table that converts to pool, arcade games, and a flat-screen TV, so it works as tournament headquarters one minute and a movie-night den the next. Just outside, the hot tub is the place to soak after a day on the trails or the slopes, and the fire pit takes over once it's dark — exactly the right setup for roasting marshmallows under a wide Pocono sky. The six bedrooms are arranged for families and mixed groups. Three rooms each have a queen bed, three more pair a full bed with a twin, and a bonus room adds a twin daybed with a twin trundle, leaving a comfortable spot for everyone. Bear Paw Lodge sits in the Lake Harmony community, with private beach access available through Lake Harmony Estates. Big Boulder is about a mile away for skiing, snowboarding, and snow tubing in winter, while the warmer months open the surrounding lakes up to kayaking, fishing, and swimming. Hikers can reach Hawk Falls and the otherworldly Boulder Field at Hickory Run State Park in a short drive, and lakeside tables at spots like Nick's Lake House and Boulder View Tavern put sunset water views within easy reach. AvantStay rounds out the stay with personalized, tech-enabled concierge service. From fridge stocking and private chefs to massages, transportation, celebration setups, and ski or beach gear rentals, whatever the group needs is only a message away. Nestled in the heart of the Poconos, a dreamy destination for group getaways awaits. Embark on breathtaking hikes along the Shuman Point Hiking Trail, where nature unfolds its vibrant beauty from warmer days through the golden hues of autumn. Winter unveils a snowy paradise for Nordic skiing enthusiasts at the Big Boulder Ski Area. Dive into summer's embrace with kayaking, fishing, canoeing, and refreshing swims, making memories by the water's edge. The Poconos effortlessly balances a secluded and romantic atmosphere, setting the stage for intimate moments. Families will find joy in a myriad of kid-friendly activities, from thrilling water parks to exhilarating adventure courses. In the Poconos, every season paints a canvas of shared experiences, promising a group retreat like no other.
