The beach could use some better upkeep as there was goose poop everywhere. Not really easy to enjoy the beach when you are unable to find a clean spot to put your beach towel down.

Way too overpriced. Asked for early check in and the host didn’t respond, he also didn’t respond when we left a day early probably because he didn’t want to refund us for a day. The house was dirty and If you have little ones there is a dangerous spiral staircase to the second floor which we couldn’t even use because it was so steep and sketchy. Totally unimpressed, wish we saved 1,000 and spent it on something actually enjoyable.

Poconos Mountain Escape

It was a nice home and pretty true to pictures. The facillities with the pool, kids center, tennis, basket ball court etc and food was only a 10-15 minute walk to house. Food taste good at the center. The owner was easy to contact if I had a question or a request. The place also provided 2 paper towel, dish cloth, bath towels, wash cloths, laundry soap and wifi. It was missing trash bags to which the owner quickly provided it. The bbq grill was dirty but the owner offer to come by quickly to clean it. There are 3 floors with a spiral staircase connecting 2nd and 3rd floor, which one should be mindful of if you have small children but it is beautiful. On first floor is laundry, shower full bath, futon, daybed and a bedroom. On second floor is kitchen, living room, dining room, 2nd bedroom and shower full bath. On Third floor is 2 bedrooms with shared tub shower full bath. It is nice that there was a room per floor and bathroom to provide a little privacy to each room. The kitchen was fully stocked with some nice items like keurig, spices etc. All in all it was a nice stay.

Nightmare on Lyman Drive

Arrival was disappointing. The home was dirty the bedding looked like a science project. We had to strip all the linens and wash them and sanitize the beds and remake them.The place was infested with carpenter ants. I found a nest in a container of sugar on the counter in the kitchen. Hundreds of ants poured out as I filled the container with water. It was truly something out of a horror movie. We contacted the manager and he was very responsive and refunded a few dollars. With no where else to stay, we cleaned, sanitize and exterminated the entire house. It was very difficult sleeping the first few nights because the ants were throughout the entire house. Once the nest was gone we placed glue boards throughout the home and appeared that we were in good shape. To sum it up. It was not the vacation we anticipated especially traveling with an infant and a small child. I feel like we spent more time cleaning someone’s property than enjoying our relaxing vacation.
