Who We Are

Your Hosts

Hello from the Cataldo family! We’re Michael Sr., Michael Jr., Laura, and Cathleen, and together, we built The Pocono Barndominium from the ground up. This project is a true labor of love, blending our construction expertise with a passion for hospitality. As locals to the Jim Thorpe area, we take great pride in sharing not only our home but also our favorite local recommendations with every guest who stays with us.

 

Michael Sr. and Jr., founders of Cataldo Builders Inc., set out to create something truly unique in the Poconos. Their vision was to craft a home that combines farmhouse charm with modern functionality, all while maintaining the highest standards of quality. The barndominium, originally a post-frame structure typically used for warehouses or garages, was transformed into a luxurious retreat ideal for large groups to gather and create lasting memories.

 

Laura and Cathleen, a mother-daughter team, manage The Pocono Barndominium and several other vacation rental properties throughout the Poconos through their boutique co-hosting and vacation rental management company, Discovered In Travel Vacation Homes. They focus on the little details that elevate each guest’s experience, ensuring that every stay is the best vacation rental experience they’ve ever had.

 

Every nail, beam, and design element of this home was crafted by our family to create a space where people can gather, celebrate milestone moments, and create memories for years to come. We invite you to step inside, kick off your boots, and escape the everyday at The Pocono Barndominium.

We had a fantastic stay at this property! The moment we arrived, we were struck by how peaceful and relaxing the environment was. It’s the kind of place where you instantly feel yourself unwind. It's quiet, serene, and beautifully maintained. The hot tub was a standout feature and quickly became one of my favorite parts of the stay. It was spotless, and easy to operate. The game room was an absolute blast. The golf simulator and the corn hole were a lot of fun to be able to do even in all the cold we have been having. The home itself was comfortable, clean, and thoughtfully set up with everything needed for a stress‑free stay. Overall, this property far exceeded my expectations.

Our group had a wonderful stay. The space was exactly as advertised and we really enjoyed the amenities from the movie room to the golf simulator given that we stayed in the whole time. Would book again if we were in the area!

The family and I had a marvelous time at the pet friendly Pocono Barndominium leading up to the Christmas holiday. Upon entering we immediately noticed how immaculate everything in this property was with a well thought out layout for a family retreat close to Jim Thorpe. Cathleen and Laura are the quintessential Superhosts, with speedy response times combined with a warm welcoming knack for hospitality and attention to detail. Our family felt right at home and we were able to create many special memories to last a lifetime. We highly recommend the Pocono Barndo and looking forward to a return visit in the summer.
