The Team
Pocono Pads is a privately owned short-term rental management company based in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania. Founded in 2018 by managing partners Tommy and Richie, we’ve grown from a single property to 30+ vacation rentals — and we’ve been ranked the #1 STR management company in the Poconos by AirDNA.
About Us
Tommy and Richie built Pocono Pads around one principle: Pocono Mountains vacation rental income should be predictable, not stressful.
Tommy's finance and real estate background drives our market analysis and revenue strategy. He tracks occupancy trends, dynamic pricing, and revenue optimization across the Poconos vacation rental market — making data-driven decisions that outperform the competition. Richie oversees day-to-day operations, the team, systems, and the five-star guest experience that separates top-performing Pocono rental properties from average ones.
With a dedicated team of coordinators, maintenance staff, and account managers, we've grown from one property in 2018 to 30+ vacation rentals — and our owners consistently earn 30–40% more than self-managed properties.
We only work with owners willing to invest in professional photos, smart home tech, and systems that actually move the needle. If that's you, let's talk.
The early team: Richie, Will, and Tommy building Pocono Pads from the ground up.
Our Mission
Our Why We Do What We Do
Maximize Pocono Mountain property owner revenue through professional operations, proven systems, and total transparency. We treat Pocono vacation rentals like real businesses — because they are.
We started Pocono Pads after watching too many Pocono Mountains property owners struggle with inconsistent bookings, guest complaints, and vacation rental managers who disappear after collecting their commission.
Most short-term rental management companies are reactive — waiting for problems to show up. We're proactive. Dynamic pricing that adjusts daily. Thorough guest screening before every booking. Smart home tech that prevents issues before they happen. Monthly owner reports that show exactly where your money goes.
We built the short-term rental management company we wish existed when we started: transparent, responsive, and relentlessly focused on results.
