This was an excellent stay! The host is great and made check in/checkout easy. The dock, kayaks, firepit, pool table, darts and foosball table gave the kids so much to do and we caught a ton of fish (perch, bass and various bluegill varieties!) The kitchen was perfect for making food for all of us and the multiple sitting areas was great for relaxing times. We do this type of trip often and this was one of our favorites and really was a great value considering the waterfront which was beautiful! Thanks for making this a memorable trip!

Michael, thanks for visiting us here in the Poconos. Also thanks for taking care of our house. You are very welcome anytime.
Our family had a wonderful getaway here. Property and house was better than pictures and owners were very nice and great communication! We will definitely be back highly recommended!
Rent a house each year October weekend and this is one of the top choices. Clean, good beds, lots of room. Good showers and great BBQ grill. Lake was great for fishing from dock. Communication with Janine was great and helpful.
This house was an excellent spot for our vacation. The owners were very easy to communicate with and the property was in great condition. We enjoyed the kayaks and canoe, the pool table, and beautiful view from the deck.

Thanks for your stay again. You are welcome back anytime.

Fantastic property and amenities
Clean throughout and lots of space with different rooms, many with TV in them
Views are great, can see Lake from hot tub right in front of you
Kitchen well equipped
Pool table and dart board and many board games to spend time playing
Would highly recommend, and we look forward to our next stay here
Our stay at the Pocono country place was relaxing and restorative. The home was clean and comfortable, accommodating, and filled with great activities. The home is right on the lake, and filled with games, grilling equipment, water-side lounging, and a great spot for camp fires. The neighborhood was quiet and friendly and located near several state parks. Perfect for a relaxing stay in the beautiful PA countryside!

Thank you for your stay. You were truly wonderful and respectful guests. You are always welcomed back.
The property was amazing! The house was comfortable & clean and the yard is well done. The kids loved the various games in the home and being able to swim in the lake and take the canoe out right from the backyard. Adults enjoyed the hot tub at night. Wildlife is a plenty!
My daughter has already asked to return to this property next summer :)

Thanks, Christina for your stay and a wonderful review. I really appreciate it. You are very welcome to come back any.
We had a wonderful family vacation at the lakefront property. The home offers more amenities than other lakefront sites, including the private dock, canoe/kayaks, covered hot tub and sitting area. It offers the best balance of indoor/outdoor activities, perfect for this era's unpredictable weather. We'd consider staying again and trying a different season. The community is quiet and was within easy driving distance of all the essentials. Hosts were very responsive and made everything incredibly easy for us.
We recently stayed at this house for MLK weekend with another family. The house was easy to get to, great location for both camelback and kalahari, very clean, and comfortable. There was so much to do, even in the winter. The owners were great to work with and made the rental process very easy. The only thing of note is that the the second bedroom on the Main floor is a double bed, not a queen. We all had so much fun, It didn’t make a difference!

Thanks for visiting us. You are welcome to come back anytime.
You can read all the other positive reviews about this house, and I can tell you they are all true! A lot of nice outdoor seating options, a working hot tub, a pool table - plus a dock to fish from. The kitchen was well-stocked and had everything we needed. BBQ grill worked great. Lastly, the property is also laid out well re the neighbors. No one too close and it’s pretty private. Highly recommended!

Thank you, John! I'm so glad you liked our place. You are welcome anytime.
My family recently stayed at this house and found the accommodations to be exactly as described, which were fantastic. The owners Janine and Julian were very courteous, accommodating, very friendly and couldn't do enough for you. The lake was beautiful and we used the owner's kayaks several times. Fishing, swimming right off the dock, and floating in tubes was relaxing and fun for the small children. Amenities were excellent including 3 TV's, a pool table, darts and games for rainy days. Large wrap-around deck with easy access to the lake made our outdoor time very enjoyable. We also spent one afternoon at the community pool which was fantastic for the children. Between the wonderful accommodations and the thoughtful and considerate home owners, this was a place my family will be sure to come back to again in future summers.

Thank you, Bob, and your family for visiting us and for taking care of our house. You are very welcome anytime.
This house is beautiful and was a perfect place for our family vacation! The deck overlooking the lake, peaceful and pretty, great for our son in laws to fish, the kayaks and canoe that were provided was awesome, the little sandy area by the water, perfect for our grandchildren to play, there were games and toys in the house which was also so nice to have for the younger ones and the covered area outside was perfect for sitting when it rained. We also had the luxury of watching 4 th of July fireworks right from the deck over the lake! Everything about this place was perfect! The only reason I gave it a 4 was because the hot tub wasn’t working. Also the check in process was a bit chaotic it that was because of the 4th of July holiday and the people were so nice, but the line was very long. I’m sure it’s not that crazy if it’s not a holiday. The hosts were so nice and texted us a couple times to make sure everything was okay and very apologetic about the hot tub situation. Being a holiday it wasn’t possible to get someone there to repair it. Nevertheless we loved the house and hope to return again next summer! Also, there are fun things to do nearby, we enjoyed Camel Beach outdoor water park, Bushkill Falls and animal petting zoo all close by. There are also stores close by as well for anything you need, Walmart and shop Rite less than 30 mins away. A perfect place and a wonderful family vacation ❤️
Was a perfect spot for a nice relaxing weekend to catch up with friends. The house was so nice and the lake views were amazing. Check in was easy and the owners were very friendly.
The lake was beautiful and great to fish from the dock. The house location is very quiet and peaceful. Janine was lovely, she was very informative and had great communication.
The kitchen could use some updated pots/pans, but the house was very clean and very well maintained. Overall, we had a wonderful stay! Thank you Janine!
We have decided to open up our Pocono's retreat, so others can enjoy it as much as we have. We love traveling in our spare time. Julian enjoys cooking, fishing, and chess - teaching inner city kids how to play and leading them to championships several times. I enjoy reading, dancing, and gardening.
