We really enjoyed our stay with our family. Location is great: peaceful, secluded, and on the lake. We enjoyed the use of the canoes, kayak, fire pit, hot tub and game room. Owner was helpful and communicative. House is in need of updating and I made the mistake of not noticing there was no air conditioning. It didn't take away from our lovely time together.

Great House!

Big house with plenty of space to spread out for our group of three families. Convenient drive to Montage Ski Resort. House is well stocked with games and plenty to do with the pool table, ping pong and hot tub. Owner was very responsive which made for a relaxing trip. Highly recommend!

Thanksgiving Weekend

Our family had a wonderful stay. The location is quiet and the house was a great size for our family. Plenty of games, and indoor activities! The owner was very helpful and communicated with us. Beautiful location and we were visited by a few deers in the morning! I would definitely recommend this house for families

Family Christmas gathering in the Poconos

Layout was perfect for our group of 6 adults and 5 children 3 and under. However, the property itself is very dated and seems like very little has been done to improve it over the years.

Wonderful Family Getaway

Went away with our extended family for a Christmas getaway and it was perfect for what we needed! Loved the open floor plan so we could be in the kitchen and still interact with those on the couch. Loved the space in the basement for games. Very spacious, 11 of us and we never felt on top of eachother. The only minor inconvenience was the beds being very hard and uncomfortable to sleep. Overall we had a wonderful family trip and would 100% Stay there again!

Family vacation

Lovely house big enough for our family of 8. So much to do at the house and on the lake. We made daily use of the kayaks and canoes and enjoyed fishing right from the river bank. Thanks to Joe & Leanne for sharing your beautiful home! Looking forward to staying again

Great get away. Lots of room.

We had a wonderful stay in your beautiful home. Very spacious, with open living space, and plenty of separate space for quiet. Owners thought of so many things to make it convenient and homey. Loved using the canoe with direct access to the lake. Can't wait to come back.

Property was as advertised. Owners were responsive to my questions while we stayed there. Fireplace and hot tub were perfect for a cool fall stay. Enjoyed the spacious deck and wildlife while staying right on the lake.

Love it.

This is a beautiful house. The location is just the perfect amount of secluded without being in the woods by yourself. And it's huge! It sneakily big, comfortable, rustic... we absolutely loved it.

Multi-Family Lake Hideout

Met two other families here for a great, relaxing trip. The weather kept us in every afternoon, but we didn't mind. The teenagers played chess on the screened in porch, the younger kids played hide and seek on three floors, and the adults completed puzzles and cooked food. The rules for the lake were a slight inconvenience, which is why one category is 4 out of 5. Highly recommend!

Private Getaway in the Poconos!

We had a blast! The house is great, a little outdated as other reviews stated but has a nice homey cabin feel with everything you need. (i would just recommend bringing your own sharp knives if you plan on cooking while you’re there) We had a few issues arise while we were there but the owner was quick to send someone out to fix and address our issues immediately! Love how it’s private so you don’t feel like neighbors are watching you in the backyard. We went out on the kayaks and the canoes every day and used the hot tub as well. The open kitchen/living/dining area was perfect for our big group. We did tons of crafting and games on the huge dining table. We didn’t use the community amenities because of rain almost every day we were there but just know you do have to pay extra for passes for anything in the community. Our group did bike rides nearby and we also drove to Kalahari (about 15 mins away) to hike their waterfall trail behind the waterpark…highly recommend, but it is a HIKE so be prepared! The check in process through the gates was a little confusing for our group but as long as you read and follow instructions, it’s a breeze. thank you for a wonderful week of memories!

Son’s Senior Ski Trip

Our family took a ski trip for my son’s senior year. The weather was awful, but we managed to get one day to ski. The house was great. Lots of space and yet cozy. Plenty to do even when we were stuck inside due to rain. The property manager was responsive and helpful. The kitchen has every tool you can think of to cook meals if you wish.

Beautiful Home on a Lake!

Many things to do for kids and teens, as well as a canoe and kayaks - included. Secluded w/much distance from neighboring homes, which were not visible. We had some family problems while there, and received great assistance by the owners, who were friendly and very helpful! They turned a problem into an unqualified success!

Great place

We enjoyed our stay. Very quiet and relaxing. Would be a difficult walk to the water on the property if you were elderly. Fishing wasn't great when we were there. Otherwise it's a great property. Owners were very responsive. Make sure to read all they send before you go. The gatehouse where you check in isn't on the same road as the house.

40th Birthday Celebration

We stayed in this property for a weekend to celebrate my husband’s and my 40th birthdays with friends! It was absolutely perfect! The amenities included a spacious hot tub, high quality sauna, kayaks/canoes just a few steps in front of the house and game room. The lay out was well thought out for groups of 12 as the upstairs and downstairs had plenty to offer and plenty of sleeping space. We all enjoyed our stay thoroughly. The price was extremely reasonable and we did save money by opting to bring our own linens. Linens are available to order from the association for an additional cost. Joe, the owner was very friendly and helpful. -Katie

The perfect home for the whole family!

First and foremost, the host was amazing! Joe was not only incredibly attentive and responded quickly, he provided recommendations for all the family activities we wanted to go too! The house was absolutely beautiful and very clean. We definitely over packed, because the house had everything we could have possibly needed except for food. It was the most magical Christmas weekend, stunning views, beautiful fireplace & firepit. It was just so perfect! Thank you Joe for sharing your home with my family. We will DEFINATELY be booking with you again this year!
