Perfect Poconos Home !!!

We really felt like home away from home. The house was clean and meticulously maintained !! The host was very responsive to our questions. There was enough space for a group of 12 and we really enjoyed all the home had to offer. Just a few minutes drive to activities like Kalahari resorts. We would love to stay here again.

Newly-renovated, clean and furnished nicely. Great setup for a few families with kids and close enough to ski and water park options. Definitely would recommend. Property Manager was attentive and responsive.

Poconos vacation

This was a beautiful well-kept house. Exactly like the pictures. The owner was very responsive and really took time to make us feel welcome. The little details and thought behind everything in the home were noticed and appreciated. The home is immaculate, sleeps 10 comfortably, with two additional on the lower level couch. Deer visits daily!! I recommend this place and would stay again.
