Beautiful Home

We came up to the Pocono area for my daughter's Sweet 16. This house was perfect for the girls she invited, for our older son, and very close to the mountain for snowboarding, skiing, and tubing. The girls loved the hot tub! I would rent absolutely rent again!

Great mountain home for 8 people

My family and I stayed at this Towamensing Trails home this past weekend. It’s a great location about 10 minutes from Big Boulder and 20-25 minutes from Jack Frost. The house was clean. The cabinets were clearly labeled so we would find exactly what we needed in the kitchen. There are lots of board games and books and thoughtful touches that the homeowners have in this home. The hot tub was really nice to have. The landlord was great at communicating. Instructions were left everywhere around the house, including how to work the fireplace. For the value of what it cost, I wish it had a better equipped kitchen and maybe some nicer pillows in the bedrooms. Some of the pots and utensils looked really dated and used. In addition, operation of some of the thermostats for the bedrooms were a little tricky to operate. Some more detailed instructions posted would be helpful. But overall a wonderful and comfortable experience at this home.
