Nice house

We stayed at Hinkle House for a long weekend with family ranging from age 9 to 81. The property was clean and well organized. We really enjoyed the porch and the game room and the kitchen was well stocked and equipped. We were disappointed that there was no pool. The VRBO listing states pool as an amenity. There is a community pool close-by but only residents are allowed. Access to a pool was one of the reasons we chose this house. We had 8 people and this house comfortably sleeps 8. The listing states it sleeps 11. As it contains 3 double beds, 2 twins, 1 air mattress and 1 cot, stating it sleeps 11 is inaccurate. We would have given 5 stars if the listing was accurate.

About the host

Hosted by Robin Masker & Debbie Bridgman

Sisters, Debbie Bridgman and Robin Masker grew up in this area. We both graduated from the Lehighton Area School District and moved out of the area living the lives of military wives. After living the military life we settled down in two separate parts of the country. Robin is now a teacher in the St Louis area, and Debbie is a deputy for Broward County in Ft. Lauderdale and owns Blue Herron Ranch in Southwest Ranches, FL.

Why they chose this property

We are sisters, Robin Masker and Debbie Bridgman. In the early 60's our father worked several jobs to provide his family with this house, he even helped build it. This is where we grew up and we have so many memories. When we inherited the house we decided to keep it and put a lot of hard work into renovating and adding our decorating touch to return it to its former glory. Even though our jobs took us to different states, we will always call Pennsylvania our home. We come back to stay in the house often to visit family we have in the area and during the times we aren't there we rent it out as a vacation rental. We hope that you have a pleasant stay and enjoy staying in our home...'the house that built us'.
