Meet Your Hosts

Bruce and Denise welcome you to their vacation homes.

Our Story

Enjoying the Pocono Mountains of PA and the Catskill Mountains of NY

In 2007, Bruce and Denise purchased Lakeside on Lake Naomi in the Poconos, where their children learned to ski and their family gathered for holidays. Fifteen years later, they added French Woods Farmhouse in Hancock, New York, on 12 acres where the Delaware River's branches meet for the best fly fishing in the eastern US, plus water sports galore. Both homes reflect their love of travel, family, and the places they've chosen to share with guests.
