We had our extended family vacation with our grandsons and stayed in this house. We loved it! Comfortable, spacious, beautiful, and well-appointed. Our hosts were great! We loved Big Bass Lake and mini-golf at Rt 940 Junction. Ice cream at Tutrone’s and then at The 940 Junction were great! I would give this house 10 stars if VRBO let me. Definitely recommend it!

Moutain views but with extra steps
It was difficult to check in with the gates for our party after hours even with the directions given. There was a hole in the wall in the gym area. Had to fill out more paperwork then usual to get into the gated community. I will most likely opted for non gated communities next time to ease the process. The house was nice and had lots of entertainment but difficult to coordinate for multiple cars entering.

Great Stay in Gouldsboro
My friends and I traveled to Pennsylvania to attend my graduation at the University of Scranton for the weekend. Igor’s listing was the perfect option for us as it allowed for a larger group to stay in one house very comfortably. It was close to the graduation location but also gave us the option to be close to nature trails and the beautiful lake near the residence. The house was clean and comfortable, and I highly recommend this listing for large groups looking to be near the area!

Perfect getaway
We loved our stay here. Igor was amazing to sea with and the house did not disappoint. The layout was perfect for us. The main level was a great area to play card games and eat as a family and also enjoy watching movies as a group. The downstair game room had our crew up till 3am playing pool and enjoying each others company. There is not one complaint about our stay except it wasn’t long enough. Check in at the gate was quick and easy and they were super friendly as well. Thank you Igor for sharing your home with us!

Pleasant stay
When reading all the rules and regulations I was nervous, however the gate entry and the door entry was a breeze. We had an issue with the power due to a hair dryer, Igor responded immediately to assist with how to get it back on. This was the first house we ever stayed in that provided a broom, vacuum and Mop the cabinets were fully stocked. This was an amazing stay and the house is very spacious. last thing the shower water pressure is amazing!!!!!!!

Our stay at the cozy chalet was exactly what we were looking for. The house was clean and has a great layout so everyone had their own room. The kitchen/dining room area has enough space for everyone to gather for meals and we thoroughly enjoyed the gaming tables and other amenities the property had to offer.
