Magical weekend
We rented this house because we had an event to attend at Kalahari which is only a few miles away. We also went snow tubing at Camelback - super convenient and fun. Walking distance to beautiful lake area. This house is amazing for Harry Potter fans. The attention to detail was unbelievable. Extremely clean. We will be back!

Swell
The whole house was great! From the sauna to the numerous activities you can do at the house. Super close to Kalahari (we went 3 times). The only issue we had was the bathtub. When we filled it up, it seems like there was a layer of someones foundation makeup in the water. We're guessing it was rust in the filter. But the hot tub was fantastic and clean!

Fun Stay
We stayed over during the 4 July weekend, and had a very enjoyable stay.
The property was the same as advertised and the owners were very responsive to any questions or issues we had.
We made particular use of the garden bbq and fire-pit which were excellently maintained, though you need to bring your own wood for the fire pit.
The hot-tub was also great fun and we would have also used the sauna had it been Winter.
One observation is that there could have been more light in the kitchen but overall we had a great stay and would definitely come back and recommend to others

Girls weekend
We had a wonderful stay in this house. It was everything as described. When I had a question before we came. The owner got right back to me. I had asked the owner if she knew of any place for a manicure and pedicure also for some good restaurants she took the time to look some up for me and sent me the names that was very nice of her. The hot tub and sauna was awesome we also enjoyed playing pool. We would definitely come back again.

Spring Break Getaway
Our family throughly enjoyed our stay! The house was super clean, check in was easy, and owners were very responsive when we had questions. We loved the hot tub and privacy of the backyard. The location was great, close to the grocery store, many restaurants, and the highway. Our only complaints if we had to complain would be that the beds were small, more like full size not queen and the directions we were sent for the hot tub were not accurate and we had to contact the host for help. The hosts were very responsive and overall our stay was great!

Perfect couple of days…
Took my kids to Poco o Summit to get away for a few days during the Christmas break. House was great. Kids loved the pool table, hot tub and sauna. We were close to restaurants and attractions like Aquatopia and Kalahari. Most importantly the kitchen was stocked and made cooking easy and fun. Would recommend to anyone.

Wonderful Stay
I have never been to a cleaner rental, Eva's place is such a treat! Besides being incredibly clean, there is SO much fun to be had at the house! We enjoyed the hot tub, sauna, outdoor firepit, pool table, and made delicious meals in the fully stocked kitchen! Wish we would've had time for the karaoke! Eva is incredibly responsive to messages, and answers any questions quickly. She has a thoughtful book of local places to check out, that we used to find neat day trip ideas! The neighborhood is so picturesque, as well. We could not have asked for a better place to stay. I have never found a rental that we enjoyed as much as this one, I hope we have a chance to come back to enjoy it again! Thank you Eva!

Cozy rambler convenient to attractions
Enjoyed our summer vacation in the Poconos. Very nicely decorated home that was a good size for our family of 4. Owners did a great job of having games and activities and really enjoyed the large backyard. Only things we would have liked was cable tv and a nicer pool or swimming option but we did find a state park (Tobyhanna) that was 20 minutes away with a great beach, fishing and boating area.

Great house with big backyard and lots of activities
Very nice house for a family to stay!
We were looking for a big fenced backyard with grass for our kids to run around with no worries. The description of the house in the listing is accurate, so we got exactly what we were looking for. The backyard is big and there are a lot of activities such as volleyball, badminton, darts, including a sauna and including activities for kids(there is a little playground with a swing, slide, and sandbox). There is also billiard inside the house and ping -pong. And if you like bike riding, there are a few bikes available and there is a very nice road which goes around the lake, so you can explore nature. :)
Nice location of the house, close to the grocery store and walmart in case you need to buy something.
The owner is very friendly and responsive!!!
Overall we enjoyed the stay!

This place is awesome !!!!!
The place was meticulously clean. The kitchen was well stocked and the beds and sofa were very comfortable. All updated smart TV's and a plethora of video and board games. This place was perfectly decorated and the owner also left a welcome gift of a bottle of wine and glasses on the table. It was very hard to leave which is why I asked for a late check out. The owner graciously accommodated us. This place is well worth the price. I will definitely be returning. If you are looking for a place in a great location with unlimited nearby activities......This is the place for you! Book today....
