44 people. One street. Four lake houses.
The Lakehouse, the Chalet, the Manor, and the Cottage sit side by side on Lakeside Drive — every house with its own hot tub, kitchen, and game room, and the whole group two doors apart.
Together all day. Your own front door at night.
Most large groups face a bad trade: cram everyone into one overpriced mega-house with a single kitchen and one hot tub, or scatter across town and lose the point of the trip.
Four houses on the same street is the third option. Every family gets its own kitchen for its own breakfast schedule, its own hot tub, its own game room, and quiet bedrooms — while the docks, fire pits, and the lake between the houses belong to everyone. Kids run between houses; grown-ups actually sleep.
44 beds on one block inside a gated community — and one host coordinating every calendar, instead of four separate listings and four separate hosts.
How the group adds up.
Four on Lakeside Drive sleep 44. Add the Mansion, 15 minutes away, for 56.
| House | Sleeps | Location | Good to know |
|---|---|---|---|
 The Lakehouse | 12 | Lakeside Drive | Lakefront — private dock, game room, big deck |
 The Chalet | 12 | Lakeside Drive | A-frame with the sauna — ski-trip headquarters |
 The Manor | 12 | Lakeside Drive | Fully fenced yard — bring the dogs |
 The Cottage | 8 | Lakeside Drive | Lakefront with an arcade — the cozy one |
 The Mansion | 12 | Blue Mountain Lake · 15 min | 3,400+ sq ft, three decks, bar — the overflow flagship |
| All five together | 56 | 44 on Lakeside Drive + 12 at the Mansion | |
The street is the venue.
Everyone, two doors apart
Dinner at one house, game night at another, coffee wherever the sun hits first.
Four fire pits, four hot tubs
Nobody waits their turn. Every house carries its own evening.
Own kitchens, own quiet
Early risers, nappers, and night owls each get a roof that runs on their schedule.
One host, one plan
We line up all the calendars and run the whole stay as one reservation conversation.
Reunions yes. Ragers no.
These are homes in gated, residential communities — great for family reunions, multi-family trips, milestone birthdays, holidays, and retreats where everyone staying is a registered guest.
They are not event venues: no parties, no day-visitors crowds, and quiet hours from 10 PM to 8 AM. Groups that want a weekend-long celebration with the people they came with — not a guest list — love it here.
Group stay questions
Where can a group of 40+ stay together in the Poconos?
Four Summit Lakeside houses sit side by side on Lakeside Drive in the gated Penn Estates community, sleeping 44 between them — the Lakehouse (12), the Chalet (12), the Manor (12), and the Cottage (8). Add the Mansion on Blue Mountain Lake, 15 minutes away, and the total reaches 56. It's the closest thing to a private compound you can book in the Poconos.
Isn't one giant house easier than four houses?
Houses that sleep 40 under one roof are rare, expensive, and chaotic — one kitchen, one hot tub, no privacy, and usually event-venue pricing. Four houses two doors apart give every family its own kitchen, hot tub, game room, and quiet bedrooms, while the group shares the docks, fire pits, and lake in between. You're together all day and still get your own front door at night.
How does booking multiple houses work?
Contact Summit Lakeside with your dates and headcount, and one host checks all the calendars, holds the houses, and coordinates the whole reservation — one conversation instead of juggling four separate listings. Booking direct also means no platform service fees on any of the houses.
Can we host a wedding or party?
No — these are residential homes in gated communities, not event venues. Parties and events are not permitted, and quiet hours run 10 PM to 8 AM. Multi-family reunions, milestone birthdays, holidays, and retreats where everyone staying is a registered guest are exactly what the setup is for.
Do all the houses have hot tubs?
Yes — every house has its own private hot tub, plus a fire pit, a game room, and free kayaks, canoes, and pedal boats. Every stay also includes the HOA amenity badges for the community pools, beach, and courts.
From stays on the street.
“Sharon's home is wonderfully located right on Sunset Lake. We particularly enjoyed a well-stocked kitchen, as well as a spacious back yard that opens right onto the water.”
“Lovely three days. The home was beautifully designed and had such comfortable amenities. Highly recommend to wind down or explore the surrounding areas.”
