Welcome to Forest Pine Chalet and Bear Crest Cottage—the ultimate dual-home Pocono getaway. This rare setup offers large groups the perfect blend of expanded gathering spaces and private retreats, allowing you to vacation together without sacrificing an ounce of personal space or comfort. Please note: While this combined listing is brand new to our hosting account, both of these homes are established guest favorites. We have stepped in under new management to deliver a seamless, top-tier hospitality experience from check-in to check-out!
These two sister homes are located just 0.8 miles apart (one block over from each other) within the same community. This layout offers the ultimate group flexibility: a massive total footprint to spread out, the ability to split up for quiet mornings or different bedtimes, and a quick 2-minute drive to meet up. No crowded bunk rooms, no fighting over the shower, and no renting homes on opposite sides of town.

• The Best of Both Worlds: Expanded communal areas to gather, plus the ability to retreat to your own quiet house when you need a breather.

The Space & Layout
Most large rentals feel like a crowded dorm room. Not this setup. Because you are booking two fully functional homes just a minute's drive apart, your group gets double the amenities and breathing room:
• Two Fully Equipped Kitchens: Perfect for catering to different tastes, or separating the "early risers" from the "night owls."
• Multiple Living Areas: Separate the kids' movie night at one house from the adults' game night at the other.
• Spacious Bedrooms & Bathrooms: Double the privacy and plenty of room to unpack.
The Group Flow: Meet up at one house for an outdoor BBQ, break off into smaller groups for skiing or lake fun, and head to the other for a movie night—all while having a quiet, dedicated space to retreat to at the end of the day.
