We came for a weekend with a group of 8 people, we were very comfortable. Great house, great location, house has everything you need to entertain yourself, from kayaks,boats and games. We would definitely recommend this house to anyone that is looking to getaway for a weekend.
Had a very relaxing stay at the lake house. The view off the top deck is worth every penny. Will defiantly return next time I'm in the area and take more advantage of all this property has to offer.
The house was incredibly comfortable, with a beautiful view of the lake (we even saw a beaver swimming by). It's fantastic for kids -- there's a big yard to play in, the kids' kayaks were perfect, and a beach w playground is a 2 minute walk from the house. A wonderful stay!!!
The owners take great pride in and care
of their home and it shows. Everything you need is provided and the owners are very responsive to any concerns that you have. The house is perfect, the views were amazing, the fishing was great and I had a great time and can’t wait to return! Thanks for everything Jennifer!
The house was lovely and the property is beautiful, right on the lake, and very private!
Have never seen so many thoughtful amenities! Boats, life jackets, rackets for tennis, games in the house ... you name it! Made our stay extra fabulous. Thank you!!
Thank you Jennifer!
This place has everything you need, both in and out. Jennifer has much experience with rentals as everything you can possibly think you may need is actually there! The lake is beautiful and quite and you can just walk to Jimmy’s, just a few houses down, if you want to eat. 2 canoes, 3 kayaks, and a row boat for use- not to mention tons of life jackets for any size. The view from the Great Room is absolutely stunning. Once again, thank you for having the house so clean and tidy!
Sincerely,
David
This was the perfect place for getting away from it all and just relaxing. We won't forget the peace of it. One of our kids said he wasn't leaving.

Lakefront gem
What an amazing property! Swimming, boating, fishing, roasting marshmallows and plenty of indoor activities if it rains. Jennifer was the best host - the home was fully equipped and she took the time to go over all the amenities in detail. The kids had as much fun as the adults and we definitely hope to visit again!

Wonderful vacation home
My family and I spent a week at this lovely home on the lake. I have an 11-year-old and a 5-year-old. The house was perfect with a range of activities that fit each of our interests. There were board games for all ages and building toys. We had brought some games and toys, but once we arrived, I realized we didn't have to. We paddled in the canoes and kayaks, and swam both off the dock and at the lake beach. The location was ideal--just down the block from the beach, where there was a playground, a recreation room, and a restaurant. It was also positioned really well for trips to trails at the Delaware Water Gap and to the town of Milford. The home itself was perfectly set up for a family (or 2) and very well maintained--very clean with all the amenities. The outdoor shower made clean up after fun in the water very easy, too. The view from the house is stunning. We will definitely return.

Didn't Want to Leave!
This was our second stay at this property, and it was just as good as the first. We swam from the dock out back, took the canoes and kayaks out every day, biked around the community (our youngest learned to ride without training wheels during our stay!) and played at the beach just up the street. Two of the kids even caught fish (which we promptly released to live another day.)
Downtime was spent playing some of the games at the house, toasting marshmallows, even playing tag under the stars in the backyard. The bigger kids did a high ropes course about half an hour away while the younger ones took in a movie. We stopped to visit Dingman Falls on the way back to the house. With that stop and nearby Childs Park, it made a total of five waterfalls for this trip (we saw Raymondskill Falls last year.)
Even the wildlife was fun. There was a mother deer with her twins, a million chipmunks and squirrels, and yep, two bears near the north end of the lake. We watched the fish in the lake and the water striders zigzag away as the kayaks came near.
You can see there's plenty to do, the house is comfortable and the result is a vacation that I didn't want to leave. The owner makes sure you know how to operate everything in the house and everything except food is provided, making this an easy trip.

Wonderous views!
Held a small family reunion at this house (5 adults, 2 children) and it suited us very well. Jennifer did a walk-through over the phone (we arrived late) and was super-helpful and very friendly. Awoke to great views and full morning sunlight, as the house is on the west side of the lake. The house comes with a nice selection of watercraft to use... We really enjoyed using the canoe to cruise around the lake at dusk, after the wind quieted down a bit. The house included life-vests for both adults and children- very nice. My brother also caught some enormous bluegills off the dock with a fly rod and my niece did great job of netting the fish. House is well maintained and clean, only minor negative feedback was the kitchen was a touch musty, but that was easily 'aired' out. I would definitely want to stay here again.

Perfect Family Weekend
Jennifer was quick and friendly to answer my questions, and worked with us on our arrival and departure times. Once we arrived, the house was exactly as described. Eight of us fit comfortably inside and we enjoyed using the canoe and fire pit in the backyard. The grill was great for making dinner too! Sunrises were beautiful on the lake and the property is very peaceful. We saw deer in the backyard as well as a bald eagle soaring by. The location was also great for a hike at Bushkill Falls and to visit Milford. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to come back when the weather is warmer!

Perfect!
To say that this is a wonderful vacation home is an understatement! We had two families with a total of four adults and six kids and we had more than enough room for everyone! All you need to bring is food because EVERYTHING else is provided. The kids loved the dock and all the boats that are right there at the house. The beach is a short walk away but honestly we enjoyed being at the house more because there was so much to do. Can't wait to go back!

"Sparkle Hut" Really Sparkles!
From booking to our exit, these owners made "home base" for our Pocono family vacation a pure pleasure! John and Jennifer are courteous and VERY quick to respond to every inquiry. The house is just rustic enough to remind you that you're in the mountains, but everything you need is at your fingertips. The owners' "toybox" is full of vacation fun... from floating to rowing, outside toys and inside games. We walked to the beach, but were awfully happy to get back to the serenity of "our" dock and lush backyard.
Porches and decks, chairs and hammocks... we enjoyed every square inch of this pretty lakeside home. Even on the warmest days, we could get out of the heat, and evenings meant throwing open the windows and pulling up the blankets. Beds and couches are all comfortable with abundant pillows and blankets.
The community is sprawling and well kept and very secure. Quiet and secluded, just as promised.
Our party of seven had more than enough room, and would only consider this home in a future visit.
Enjoy!!!
