Wonderful Lake Vacation!

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 :)

Restorative stay in rural PA by the water

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!

Quiet, Private Lakefront Getaway

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.

Great Lakeside House

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!

Clean house, great location

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!

Excellent House for a Lake Getaway

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.

Beautiful house!

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 ❤️

A great recess place for family vacation!

Pros: First, the lake. My family had a wonderful time; teens & child swimming, adults doing kayaks & canoe. Second, the nature. We saw many wild animals such as deer, snake, fish, bird, except bear. Third, food shopping. There are Walmart & ShopRite within 15 min from the house by car. We had no problem for food shopping. Fourth, entertainment. We played pocket billiards & board games located at the basement of the house. Cons: Basement floor is almost under ground from the front of house and above ground from the back of house due to the slope of lot. We had no problem with humidity since dehumidifier did a good job provided by the house. I wish the interior color of basement may be brighter matching with my vacation spirit. No dryer and washer was available for short-term rental.
