Great location for our golf weekend. Central to our golf courses and nearby restaurants. Pool table and dart board were nice to have, they could use some maintenance. We had difficulty getting on the wifi, which was frustrating, thankfully we did not need to rely on it.

Great time

Me and my wife had a great no kids weekend. We got the house because of the pool table and dart boards so we were never bored. Super close to just about anything you wanted to do would definitely stay here again even with the kiddos next time lol.

A lovely, cozy house packed with all sorts of ammenities in the game room! We had such a wonderful time playing pool in the game room and snuggled up on the couches for a movie. We had 5 girls in the house for the weekend so having 3 bathrooms was extremely helpful! All the towels were in cute little shapes on the beds and the toilet paper rolls all had little toilet paper flowers on them. All in all a wonderful weekend getaway, and the addition of having access to a pool just made it even better! On top of everything the host was absolutely wonderful and so accommodating! I'll be back as soon as I can!

A good staycation during the memorial day weekend!

We started by drinking hella lot and playing pool! We played pool and darts all day long and it was never boring. Did a couple hikes the next day and jumped into the pool once we were back. Just amazing! The beds were amazing and so was the patio! Had meals on the patio together and drinks after that. Good location and a good locality to just take a peaceful stroll. Get food and cook there instead of ordering. Might visit again for a yet peaceful weekend.

That's what I'm talking about!! Great Home!

TV's, TV's and more! Thank you Chris for not being cheap with your TV sets! I hate old fashion set's and this home does not have one. That living room you see in the picture is prefect for watching movies! Wow! The windows in that room allow complete privacy because only the squirrels can look in from the trees.The unit is situated as the last house on the right and the only one with an L shaped back patio deck that curves around the back to the side of the building which give spacious room for grilling and relaxing. Chris...you only need a hammock and that would make it complete. I went with my wife and three children (14,15 and 17yrs) and they loved it! The roomy basement with two dart boards and nice pool table and tv's all over the place...fantastic for a group...some can be playing pool, other's watching the flat screen and others by the bar and even other's shooting darts! The only negatives that we can think of were 1- where is the complimentary coffee? The place is not very low priced. We were scrambling for a coffee bag but there was none. 2- What the heck happened to the Iron??? Lucky we were only staying for two nights cause we had none. 3- no linings or towels. If you want any it would be $20 per BED. Not good at all. We brought our own but weren't happy about that...Chris was great though and understood that this was not good news to anyone. Other than that the place was an absolute charm and the family went water rafting and that was definitely the icing on the cake!!! What a wonderful thrill for all. FYI: If you go water rafting on the weekday's it is cheaper!! Kitchen was perfect with everything you need minus a toaster but we didn't need one. We would absolutely stay here again in a heart beat! My family loved it! At the time we went, there was only one other family on the opposite side of the street which gave us the liberty to really feel free from any distractions. Thanks Chris for a smooth transaction and stay at your wonderful place. God bless you and yours and the property. Thanks again!

Daniel, I am glad you enjoyed your stay at our vacation home, I will have to look into the hammock, that does sound like a great idea. There is a toaster, just had to look in one of the cabinets.

Not Good

We have to say we were very disappointed in our home at Harmony Lake. The house is advertised to house12. We had 11 and had to rent the linins which I have never done before. The linins were not adequate and towels had to be shared or washed constantly. There were no dish towels and no pot holders or oven mitts. There was not silverware to accommodate more than one meal-forks etc. The bar area downstairs was very nice but no glasses or a place to wash them. The kitchen cabinets were a disaster and not clean. The living room carpets were filthy with stains and spots all over. We did not dare walk barefoot. It is advertised as lakes within walking distance. That is true but we were not informed until we got there that they are private and cannot be used unless you are a member. The pool area was very nice and we did use it. All in all our family made the best of it and we enjoyed the area and being together. However, we would never rent this home again.

I am very sorry that you and your family did not enjoy your stay. unfortunately the carpets were set to be cleaned before you arrived but did not get done until after your stay. As for the linens and towels, if there was an issue you should have notified me and I could have arranged to the company to bring you the correct amount. Our kitchen is fully stocked with plates, silverware and glasses for 12. The bar is the basement is not a wet bar so, yes all glasses would need to be cleaned up stairs in the kitchen. Big Boulder lake is within walking distance and you are able to go to boulder veiw tavern and sit out by the lake for dinner and drinks

Cute house for family vacation

Despite some of the hiccups that the township was dealing with at the time, the owner was very accommodating and was in constant contact about the status of the issue. The home was perfect for our family of 13 getaway, providing much space to give everyone their own personal space if needed. We had 3 kids under the age of 6 and they loved the basement and the outdoor deck. The location is 25 minutes from Jim Thorpe, where we were able to find many things to do for the grandparents all the way down to the kids.
