Great place for families

This owner is very responsive. Like within minutes Rita would answer my questions. Great house and lots of games… mortal kombat was not working sadly. Kids had a great time. The ski hill wasn’t opened yet but we still had a good time. Not much going on in this area if it isn’t skiing or lake season but that wasn’t a surprise. Clean house and welcome treats were provided. Highly recommend for the Poconos.

Very fun getaway!

The owners were extremely responsive to our questions. The house is set up nicely for families with kids; the included sports equipment (fishing rods!) were very convenient! We appreciated that the bed linens are included and we didn't have to pack any sheets. The game room was a big hit with our grandkids. The only disappointment was that the 2nd bathroom is in the basement, not on the 2nd floor near the bedrooms. Not a huge deal though, we made it work. We really enjoyed the fire pit - great for smores' night!

Lake Fun!

Property had lots of fun activities, arcade games for the kids and having bikes and kayaks made it very nice. Firepit was great and had plenty of wood cut to use. Beds were comfortable. Wish it were closer to the lake. Neighborhood was safe for walking. Thought the cleaning fee on top of the POA fee was rather high as we thought house was stuffy upon arrival and outside tables and chairs had to be swept off before using. Working with home owner was easy and she was very helpful.

Excellent!

We had 2 families (4 adults and 4 kids) and it was just perfect. The games room was a highlight for sure and the other one was the fire pit, which was gorgeous. Perhaps the best part of our stay was communication with the host. I must have asked 20 questions and all were answered straight away. The quickness of the responses made our stay very enjoyable. Thank you!

Why they chose this property

We absolutely fell in love with this house as soon as we saw it, and we hope you will too. The house is next to green belt property, which helps it feel super secluded. Our favorite spot is the lower deck outside of the basement slider door. We enjoy sitting out there with our morning coffee, or tea, watching the wildlife. There is a good chance you will spot turkeys, deer, raccoons, and more...while visiting.
