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.

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

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!

House made a rainy vacation a success!
The entire family had a great time. The accommodations were spacious and perfect for everyone from an infant to a great-grandmother! We were surprised at first that there was no air conditioning, but the fans and beautiful wooded lot made everything very comfortable. Would go back in a heartbeat!

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

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!

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

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.

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.

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.

Decent Stay
The rental was decent overall, but we did experience some disappointments. We stayed here to celebrate my sister’s 30th birthday and enjoyed skiing and snowboarding during our trip. The house itself was very nice and contributed to a good time, but there were a few issues that impacted our stay.First, the hot tub wasn’t ready when we arrived. It was at 67 degrees and didn’t reach a usable temperature until the second night. On top of that, there was no hot water for showers on the first night, which was frustrating. While the hosts came out to resolve the issue, they should have made sure this wasn’t a problem before our arrival, especially considering the price we paid.Additionally, the HOA rules for this property were a bit strict. You’re required to provide the names of all guests (maximum 12), check in at a gatehouse for parking passes, and ensure compliance to avoid fines. Guests are also required to take all garbage to the dump (a five minute drive) after their stay or face a 25 per bag fee from the host. Finally, you either need to rent or bring your own bed sheets, which felt inconvenient.Overall, the house was nice, but these issues detracted from the experience. I certainly give it credit for being pet friendly though (20 a day for our dog which was fair).

Big and roomy
This place was great for our group of 8 adults. Plenty of rooms and beds and it was great that the dining room sat all of us and the living room fit all of us. It took a long time to heat up the hot tub, but when hot it was great. And the sauna was not mentioned in the listing but it was a great surprise. We did not like having to take the trash to the dumpster, especially since we didn’t realize it until the last day. We were here in the winter, but I bet it would be lovely in the summer.

Place is really nice and have a rustic look and feel to it
The place is really nice and has a rustic look and feel to it. We used the hot tub, wood stove, and kayak in the lake. We wanted to use outside firepit but ran out of time. There was only 3 couple on our trip so we all ended up taking each floor and each floor has its own bathroom so that was nice not sharing lol. There are 6 rooms so definitely would have accomodated a lot more people than 6. Billiards, foosball and table tennis we used as well. Place needs a chalk for billiards but other than that our stay was great! I do recommend the place and we intend to come back with a bigger group!

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!
