Christmas Birthday Celebration

My family and I enjoyed our stay at this lovely home. Form 12/25-12/29/25. We had 22 people in our group ranging in age from 2yrs to 75 yrs and everyone had their own space to relax. The house provided entertainment and relaxation for all. We had wonderful views of the mountains and ski lodge. Location was close to activities such as skiing and snow tubing and indoor water park. When we had an issue, the host responded quickly and had maintenance out to the house in less than 2 hours. We would definitely stay at this home again!!!

Amazing home, breathtaking views

Our family has stayed with this host at one of their properties next door last year as Lookout Lodge was being built. We made arrangements to return this year for our family reunion at the brand new Lookout Lodge. We all were amazed at how beautiful and spacious this new home was, plenty of room for all. One notable thing, the breathtaking views of the pocono mountains! We highly recommend this property.

Amazing

The house is absolutely beautiful and modern. It is very spacious and extremely clean. My sisters and I and our families had enough bedrooms. The huge open kitchen and family room accommodated all of us perfectly. The views from the deck were magnificent. The abundance of chairs on the deck fit our large group. The only problem we had was the coffee maker spilled out about half every time we made coffee. And the pillows were very flat and uncomfortable. However I would recommend this place and definitely come back myself.

Nice big house, very clean, could use more essentials!

This was such a great spot for a weekend trip with friends! Great location, perfect size, awesome and well-stocked kitchen for cooking with friends. It was truly comfortable and felt spacious even with 20 people. Friendly, flexible and communicative hosts.Our only suggestion to the hosts would be that they fully stock toilet paper and basic shampoo/soap, and cleaning supplies (dishwasher detergent, paper towels). They’re just basics that we think most people will expect, given the general niceness of the house, and it was a bit jarring to find out suddenly that we didn’t have enough of those supplies. The idea of having only "starter toilet paper", and having to pack your own rolls for a vacation rental, seemed weird to us. If it's a cost issue, the hosts would only need to add a few dollars per night to cover any additional expenses from supplying those essentials. With those changes, this will be a truly welcoming and relaxing spot for a big getaway.

Excellent house- excellent communication

This house is beautiful and was perfect for our family. There were 16 of us and we all had plenty of space to spread out. Lots of common areas to gather in for games and tv watching. The view is spectacular. Communication with the management could not be any better! We had some questions our first days and were answered immediately and with patience. I would recommend this property to anyone with a large group to relax and enjoy. Also the lake is close by and the kids loved going there. Lake harmony has a lot to offer

Perfect Stay for Our Birthdays!

My husband and I booked this house to celebrate our birthdays with our friends and family. From the beginning, the hosts answered every one of our questions quickly and thoroughly! They worked with us on every detail we needed from them.The house itself is stunning and clean. The rooms were spacious, the location was perfect, complete with the most incredible view. Having the speakers throughout the house really helped make a great atmosphere as well.We spent Saturday at the small community beach which was so perfect for us, as there were picnic tables and plenty of space for us to hang out when we weren’t in the water.Overall, this trip was better than we ever expected and already planning to rent from these hosts again!

Exactly What We Were Looking For

This place was perfect for our group. It was incredibly spacious, everything felt new and clean and the layout was perfect. Hard to take issue with anything at this place. I was pretty taken back by how large the bedrooms were, this is not a place that forces an extra bedroom at the sake of space. It is very large and very clean. Communication with the Property Manager was quick, consistent and easy. Our group has stayed at over 10 different properties in the Lake Harmony area and this was our favorite so far. Could not recommend it enough. Thank you!

Excellent stay

This house is incredible and has amazing amenities! The house was incredibly clean and amazing for a large group. I would highly recommend it for any group! Communication was clear and helpful. Our one challenge was a lack of some basic items that many homes do provide (enough toilet paper/dishwasher pods for our 2 day stay etc.), so make sure to bring with you items that you might need.

Wonderful experience!

We rented this house for a friends reunion at it was amazing! Very spacious and comfortable, with the most beautiful views. I rate it 4/5 stars because there wasn't adequete hand soap in the bathrooms (watered down, half filled soap) nor were there enough garbage bags. I feel that these basic amenities should be provided for the price of the rental. Otherwise, it was an amazing experience overall! Thank you!veroverall.basiuametametiesse
