Introduction
Thinking about moving to the Pocono Mountains? You’re not alone! More and more people are discovering the peaceful lifestyle, beautiful scenery, and affordable homes that make the Poconos an amazing place to live. But if you’re looking for a rental here, it’s important to know the process — and how to find the right home for you.
Here’s how we help renters like you find the perfect place to call home:
Understand Your Needs
Before you start scrolling through listings, get clear on what you really need. How many bedrooms? Fenced yard for a pet? Close to Route 80 for commuting? Taking a few minutes to fill out our Rental Needs Questionnaire can save you hours of searching — and help us match you with homes that actually fit your lifestyle.

Pick the Right Location
The Pocono Mountains stretch across several towns, each with a unique vibe. Whether you want the walkable charm of Stroudsburg, the quiet woods of Bushkill, or the ski slopes near Tannersville, choosing the right area is key. We’ll help you figure out which communities match your daily needs and goals.
Know What to Expect
Rental homes in the Poconos often require the first month’s rent, a security deposit, last month’s rent, an application fee and your real estate agent’s fee. Some homes are part of gated communities offering pools, lakes, and other amenities — but these may come with extra fees, too. We make sure you know exactly what’s involved upfront so there are no surprises.
Work With a Local Expert
Online listings can be outdated, incomplete, or — worse — scams. As local rental specialists, we have access to legitimate properties and insider knowledge about neighborhoods, commuting times, and the little gems that can bring peace to your life. We also help you avoid common mistakes renters make when moving here.
Act Fast (but Smart)
Good rental homes go quickly. When you find one you love, you’ll want to be ready with income verification, government-issued identification, testimonials/references and show your repayment history of your utilities, etc. Expect a credit and criminal check, and employment verification. Our 7 Steps to Find Your New Rental guide walks you through exactly what documents you need to prepare ahead of time.

Get Ready to Move
Life in the Poconos is different from city living. It’s quieter, slower, and much closer to nature — and moving here comes with some adjustments (hello, snow!). We’ll help you plan for a smooth transition so you can start enjoying your new lifestyle from Day 1.
Find Your New Home
Our process is designed to make finding and securing a rental home in the Poconos easy, clear, and stress-free. Whether you’re ready to move next month or just starting to explore your options, we’re here to guide you every step of the way. And if you need to move immediately, we have vacant, furnished or unfurnished rentals that you could move into within days once you are approved.
