Serene and in the woods!

The property was just as depicted in the ad. The home was very clean. It was well lit for our evening arrival. The kitchen was well stocked with plates, cups, cutlery, chopping boards, and even a pizza tin. The bathrooms were very clean.. we enjoyed our stay very much.

Mixed bag some good touches, Advertising barbecue was ridiculous you could trash pick a nicer grill 2 burners . Surprised with water and snacks on the table communication was snotty said they messaged house code thru vrbo when asked I can post a pick of in box everything with them was like they talked down to us in all communications like we were dirt and they were rich home owners. clean 1 bath definitely not 2 baths 1 1/2 as a snobby real estate agent she should no the difference between 2 bath. do not forget to do your dishes by hand and take out the trash for 600 a week end get a hotel. Emails kind of hostel definitely not customer service based If some one emails and says they did not get the entry code your response should not be well I sent it and I can post a few pics of my inbox for vrbo rear screen the house was ok but the host is too busy being condescending to care back door rotted out would have been way better experience if she cared about customer service in emails was generous with the stars! Gave her the benefit of the doubt do not know what going on in her life to treat you like your not a valuable customer

Lovely and quiet getaway

A great mountain summer retreat. The neighborhood was clean, quiet, and easy to navigate. Great restaurants nearby. The house was clean, welcoming, and setup for cozy nights by the fire. Hosts were very responsive and helpful with information and made the check-in/out process easy. Would definitely stay here again.

Relaxing stay in the Poconos

My family and I were able to get away to the quiet of the Poconos. The house was spacious and clean. We enjoyed sitting in front of the fire place and playing games at the table. The kitchen was well equipped to enjoy our meals there. The location is well situated to go to the various attractions in the area. I hope to go back in the future and recommend anyone wanting to get away to the Poconos to stay here.

Had a great stay with my friends

House was nice and well kept and comfortably fit our group of 8. The strong AC units and fans kept the house cool, even in the summer, which made our stay more pleasant. The yard and grill were also great features, which allowed us to enjoy dinner outside in the evenings. The house came with much more cooking supplies and towels than expected, which worked out well for our group.

Our stay was thoroughly enjoyable! Your home was welcoming, warm and cozy. Felt right at home!

Pretty much everything you think you’d need was provided. It wasn’t but 5 minutes inside your home, and our son and cousin asked “how long are we staying?” There was a sigh of disappointment when we said “only 1 night” Beds were comfy.. house was clean and well maintained! Repeat visit for sure...
