Gouger's Tree Care has already done work in the Pocono Lake area. Cait Pepicelli's review says it plainly: "The team did a great job for my mother's house in the Pocono Lake area. She was extremely happy. She said they were professional, reasonable priced, responsive, and went above what she even asked for with clean up."
That is not a claim about serving the area. It is a completed job.
What Makes Pocono Lake Different
Pocono Lake is an unincorporated community in Tobyhanna Township, sitting at 1,749 feet elevation along PA-940. That elevation is the highest of any town in Gouger's service area. Snow and ice accumulate harder here than they do in the lower West End communities. White pines and lakeside oaks around Pocono Lake (the actual lake, along PA-940) take real ice loads in winter storms. Hazard tree removal is not a hypothetical — it is a regular call from this area.
The community is dense with seasonal and year-round cabin properties. Many owners are not on-site when a storm hits. A tree comes down on the cabin roof or blocks the driveway, and the property owner is in New Jersey or New York trying to figure out who to call. Ryan answers the phone 24/7. He can assess the situation, schedule the removal, and have it cleared before you make the drive up.
Tobyhanna Township Governs Here
This matters for permits. Pocono Lake is in Tobyhanna Township, not Pocono Township. Those are two different governing bodies with separate permit processes. If your removal requires a permit, the application goes through Tobyhanna Township supervisors. Ryan can tell you upfront whether your job is likely to need one and what the process looks like. Do not let a company that listed your zip code on a service area page figure this out after the job starts.
Lot Clearing for Cabin Properties
A lot of Pocono Lake calls are lot clearing: opening up overgrown cabin lots, removing trees too close to the structure, clearing sight lines to the water, and getting brush and deadwood out before it becomes a fire or pest issue. Ryan brings the equipment for this: bucket truck, crane for the large lakeside oaks, chipper, and ground mats to protect the property.
The job gets quoted on-site. The cleanup is included.

Tree Removal Cost in Pocono Lake
Cost depends on tree size, species, proximity to the cabin, and access to the property. Lakeside properties sometimes have access limitations that affect how the crew can work. Ryan walks every property before quoting — no phone estimates for a reason.
