About Martin Halla
We are striving to provide the best experience to our guests through providing clean, upgraded house and offering more and more amenities. The guests' satisfaction is very important to us. We want our guests to feel like home.
Martin Halla purchased this house in 2009
Why Martin Halla chose Poconos
Poconos is an excellent area that provides all year round activities Our location is in safe gated private community on top of the Pocono Plateau and only 15 minutes from the Hickory State Park that offers many trails to hikers. Famous Hawk Falls are within 10 minute short drive.. We are also very close to the Lehigh River which offers damn release white water rafting. Delaware river canoeing is only 25 minutes away
What makes this house unique
I really enjoy the position of the house in the mature forest. You feel truly connected to the nature through the flora and wild life that is very common in the forest (Deer, turkeys, squirrels ). We are only short 3 minute walking distance from the indian lake which provides great 2 mile loop for joggers or walkers. At the winter I enjoy the wood burning stove that provides cozy heat . With a g lass of wine at our new kitchen and high speed Internet, I cannot ask for more. I also enjoy the gated community's safety. One does not have to worry about any by-passers as only residents authorized visitors are allowed to the community.

Great place to stay!
This was our first time here. The hot tub was so fun! At night we went out and the moon was really bright and the sky was so clear.The kitchen was fully equipped and everything looked new and clean. I could live in this house and be happy- it was that perfect! House was so private which was nice.
Also, we heard lots of birds singing from the deck. We hope to come back again soon!
Secluded and beatutiful home with many amenities
We had a great stay in Martin's house. te house was very comfortable for 6 adults to relax, so some grilling, use the hot tub & fire pit. It has all the great amenities of a full-time home. The beds were comfortable. As a host, Martin reached out many times during our stay to make sure everything was going well. The area is really private and beautiful. There are many things to do in nearby area like hiking, biking , zip lines and canoeing. I’d stay with Martin again and will definitely be back to the Poconos area. Definitely recommend.
Fantastic
We had such a great time staying at this place. It is a perfect way to get out of the city and be able to relax. Martin was very helpful and responsive to all of our inquiries. He made the process as easy as can be. I would definitely suggest staying here!
The bathroom for good reason was left off the pictures
We rented this house in August for 3 nights, but really only stayed 2. We do have a lot of criticism - however, none towards the owner. I know they had a septic issue very recent before our stay- so I'm sure that was not 100 percent when we were there. I know the owner had said to text with any concerns, and we did ask for how to access the boats... but with our cons list - it would have been an issue and nothing that could be addressed easily for either party.
Pros-
Plenty of space
Guest house was very nice
Sauna (but this wasn't working)
Hot tub (although in the pictures there was a lock, which wasn't there)
Fire pit - very nice, extremely relaxing. Well worth the trip to me.
Space out back with daily deer so up close, gave you that nature feel. Peaceful and quiet.
Easy of booking and friendliness of host
The amenities were plentiful and public areas were were well kept. Lots to enjoy
Cons
Back yard had foul "septic" Smell
Was very muddy with septic contents . We had a 4 1/2 year old and 1 1/2 year old who ran across the back yard - feces soaked through their shoes for which after attempting to clean we ultimately threw out. So we could only use the left side of yard where fire pit was.
Mouse droppings everywhere - we took everything off the counters and placed in fridge, what couldn't be we had a big Tupperware container for , then proceeded to scrub counters clean with Clorox , found a multitude of dropping the next day. Threw out most of what we brought up. We had originally planned on cooking each day, but with the smell coming from the sink and the mouse droppings we opted to eat out.
Upon returning home there were piles of droppings, and just threw out any food we brought home
Sink had foul smell
The bathroom was absolutely disgusting. There were bugs crawling through tub and in toilet. Tub was dented in multiple spots and yellow with stains. Stains in toilet bowl as well. We went to a waterpark and just brought clothes and soap to
Shower there.
I am well aware we could have contacted the owner, but just kept thinking it was nothing that could in reality be fixed immediately. I just didn't feel comfortable and clean, and we decided to leave a day early.
Quiet and relaxing
We visited the Poconos for an anniversary getaway. Martin was responsive and accommodating. The house was clean and had everything we needed to feel at home.
Wonderful House
We were little bit hesitant to go on the vacation after reading the recent reviews about the septic issues. I called the owner on the day of arrival with my concerns. Martin assured me the new septic was in place and was very understanding about my cancellation plans. We decided to go anyway. Upon arrival, we saw new backyard with grass starting to show. To our surprise, we were welcomed by 5 deers on the property. Our five year old never seen deer from so close. Yard has flat grass to play - to the enjoyment of our dog. Martin offers canoe for nearby lake. There is fire pit for evening hanging out. What is also really nice about this house that the owner has everything you need in the house. I have rented other houses and I always try to remember to bring everything I need. Of course, I always forget something. If you want to get away from it all, this house will be your perfect escape.
