Can’t express enough my gratitude enough. The home was perfect in hosting my family and I to celebrate our daughter birthday. We were four generations in total including my Father in Law and grandson. Our hosts went above and beyond in making us feel welcome and arrange for a personalized birthday message and cake upon our arrival. Everyone had a great time and access to the Lake Club was terrific. We highly recommend!

Thank you so much for this incredibly thoughtful review! It means a great deal to us knowing the home was able to bring four generations of your family together to celebrate such a special birthday. Those are exactly the kinds of memories we hope our homes help families create. We were especially happy to help make your daughter’s celebration a little more memorable with the personalized birthday message and cake. We’re also thrilled everyone enjoyed the home and the Lake Club! Thank you for trusting us with such a special family occasion and for the wonderful recommendation. It was truly a pleasure hosting your family, and we’d love to welcome all of you back again! — Don & the Three Daughters Properties Team

Donald was super responsive and the location of the house was exactly as described. Our only issue was the house was not as clean as we anticipated from photos online and there were only 5 forks and 9 of us staying. Overall, we all enjoyed ourselves and can see ourselves staying here again. Especially for the boys who had a blast fishing!! Thank you, Donald for hosting us in your home.

Thank you for the thoughtful and balanced review! We’re glad you enjoyed the location, had a great time together, and especially that the boys had such a blast fishing. Those are exactly the kinds of memories we hope families make during their stay. We do apologize that the cleanliness did not meet expectations and that the kitchen was short on basic utensils. Five forks certainly isn’t sufficient for a home hosting a group of nine, and we’ll have our team address both the cleaning concerns and kitchen inventory. We truly appreciate your kind words about our responsiveness and are especially happy to hear that you would consider staying with us again. We’d love the opportunity to welcome your group back! — Don & the Three Daughters Properties Team

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re really glad you enjoyed the home and found it spacious and comfortable for your group. It’s great to hear the layout with multiple bedrooms and bathrooms worked well for you. Big Boulder is such a perfect spot for a ski trip — close to the slopes, walkable to the lake, and convenient to so many great restaurants. Even though you were early to bed after full days on the mountain, we’re happy the game room was there to enjoy when you had the chance! We truly appreciate you choosing to stay with us and hope to host you (and your pup!) again for another Pocono getaway soon. — Don Three Daughters Properties

The property was perfect for our extended family to get together! The house was comfortable and we all felt right at home. The passes for the community lake and pool kept the kids busy. There were other family things to do such as moderate hiking and an arcade/water park nearby. We had a great time and definitely will stay here again!

Our family had a great time where we stayed. We were there from Fri to Mon. Check in was good and the kitchen facilities were great. The only thing they didn't have was black pepper. There were all kinds of spices there except that, but that was ok because we went to the store and got some. Everything was awesome. We had a great time. Went to Big Boulder Club on the lake. Really nice.
