The Little Brown House: 1min to Lake | Firepit | Grill | King Bed | Pet Friendly
🏡 The Little Brown House: A Wooded Lakeside Escape in the Poconos
Tucked into the trees of Bear Creek, the Little Brown House is the kind of place where the pace slows the moment you pull in. You`re just a minute from Bear Creek Lake, wrapped in tall woods, with a fire pit out front and a covered porch made for lazy mornings. With 3 bedrooms & room for 10, it`s built for family trips, group getaways, and long weekends spent outside.
