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.

I wish I could give the Pocono Barndominium 10 stars! Cathleen and Laura were terrific hosts- quick to reply with any questions, and extremely friendly and helpful. The barndominium had everything you could want and more. A golf simulator, a theater room, a fire pit, and a wood burning stove in the living room! The decoration and attention to detail was superb! A s’mores kit for the fire pit by a welcome card, an impeccably stocked coffee station, popcorn and snacks in the movie room, hair ties and make up wipes a in the bathrooms, and a doggy area set up with bowls and blankets. They literally thought of everything! The best part for me, as a wheelchair user, was how ADA friendly it was. Going to airbnbs can be very stressful…this was the first time I felt at ease knowing I would have no problem entering the home, and have access to EVERY part of it. This was my family’s first time at the barndominium, but after our first visit- we plan on making it a yearly tradition!

Had an amazing time. Accommodated our golf trip for 8 guys. We went to Hideaway Hills, Jack Frost, Split Rock. All within about 20 minutes driving distance. Golf sim and hot tub was nice to have after the round. Very spacious and amenities were great.

We stayed here with a group of 8 guys for our annual golf trip and it completely exceeded our expectations. One of our golf days was rained out and it didn't dampen our spirits at all because we fired up the simulator and had a blast. The hot tub post-golf was great and we used the Blackstone grill twice for dinners at the house. The house had 3 great areas where we could all hang out together which after all was the main goal of our trip. Cathleen and Laura were tremendous hosts and were super responsive whenever I had questions. We have already decided we will be back next time we choose the Poconos as our annual trip destination.

Cathleen’s barndominium was incredible! From the amenities, to the s’mores kit, to the seating options, to the olive oil spray, it’s clear Cathleen put a ton of thought into making a stay here as enjoyable and convenient as possible. We had everything we needed to celebrate my husband’s birthday with a group of friends. The barndominium had something for everyone—golf simulator, theater room, hot tub, fire pit, tvs, and lots of outdoor and indoor seating for games, reading, etc. There was never a dull moment! Everyone had a wonderful time and said they’d definitely come back, so I see another trip in our future. I’d highly recommend staying here, you won’t want to leave!

Cathleen was highly responsive. The house was very clean, all appliances were new and worked well, and she even left out lovely little touches like popcorn in the movie room and S'Mores materials.
