Our family enjoyed our stay very much. The house was a perfect match for 6 adults and a toddler. Everything was super clean. Lots of space, the open concept kitchen/dining/living room was great for everyone to engage in conversations, eat and enjoy. We look forward to booking again next year.

A wonderful place with an amazing location! The kitchen is well-stocked and they have so much kid stuff which was really helpful. It’s also really close to the pool and beach which was amazing with a 2 and 4 year old! Would definitely stay again. :)

Wonderful property and location! We loved the proximity to the lake and although we knew the property wasn't lakefront, you can still see it very easily from the back deck. We saw deer everywhere and they seemed to be very familiar with people. We kayaked the lake and hiked the local trails. We ate at several local establishments and they were all fantastic. Everyone was very friendly and accommodating. For a first time trip to the Poconos it was a perfect experience!

This property was wonderful to stay at! The owners took such care with the decor and the amenities. You could tell that a lot of thought went into stocking the home with all of the essentials; the kitchen, bathrooms, and laundry were fully equipped with supplies, cleaners, detergents, and utensils. I know some of the homes in that area are not air conditioned, however this house does have air conditioning in both the upstairs and downstairs. Finally, the location was perfect— a short and easy walk to the pool and lake. If you are looking for a weekend getaway, I would highly recommend this house for your stay!
