Pocono Vacation Rental Investment

Susan Ticson

Posted

My husband and I are looking for a vacation rental investment in the Poconos.  We've looked at several areas, but seem to like the Split Rock/Lake Harmony area.  We want an area that has high vacation rental occupancy rates.  Any suggestions or advice from anyone who has experience in the area would be greatly appreciated.  

Thank you,

@Susan Ticson I've been going up there for about 15 to 20 years, I think the Split Rock/Lake Harmony region is one of the best area for rentals. 

The one good thing about the Poconos for vacation rentals as opposed to a beach property, it's possible to rent it throughout the year (as opposed to just the summer).

What's your strategy with the property? Are going to Airbnb the property? Or list with an agent? Post more traditional ads?
