Great Family Vacation house

We were two families - four adults with six kids aged 6-13 and everyone had fun. The house has something form everyone. The kids loved the mini golf and laser tag, the adults enjoyed days by the fire pit and nights in the hot tub. The basement game room was enjoyed by everyone. The house was perfectly appointed and is the cleanest VRBO we have ever stayed at - It felt as if everything was brand new. comfortable furniture, well laid out, and space for everyone.. Hosts are super friendly and easy to work with.

Amazing house for kids!

We stayed here with our family - my husband and our 2 boys (age 5 and 3) and our family friends - 2 parents and 3 kids (ages 6, 3, and 1). The house was beautiful and the kids had an absolute blast - there were infinite things for them to do and discover. There is an expansive game room, mini golf, a swingset, a play house, a hot tub, and so much more. The kitchen was well stocked and lovely to cook it, the outdoor space is perfect and spacious and we had a wonderful dinner outside. The location is also great - a private quiet getaway in the woods but close to the attractions of the Poconos. Couldn’t have been happier!

Great house for friends and family!!!!

My friends and I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Donna’s home! It truly has everything you could possibly need! The beds are comfortable and plenty of bathrooms for 5 women! We didn’t have enough time to enjoy all of the games and amenities, but there were a plethora of options!! After this trip I plan on coming here with my family! Close to shopping and grocery store, and truly zero complaints. Thank you for sharing your home!!

Activities Galore!

We had an amazing time at Donna and Paul’s house to celebrate our 40th birthdays! From the start, Donna was responsive and easy to communicate with. We spent the weekend at the house but would have to spend weeks there to enjoy all the fun activities! Everything was very clean and we greatly appreciated all the little notes throughout the house that explained how to play the many games and work the hot tub, sauna, air hockey, etc. It is evident that Donna and Paul take great pride in making sure all the systems and games stay organized and are ready for the next guest. Our friends and I are already trying to find another weekend to go back so we can do an Olympic challenge! If you are looking for a secluded property with PLENTY to do without having to go anywhere, this will be the perfect location for your stay!

Fantastic Location and House

Our family enjoyed our stay. There was so much to do in the area and at the house. We spent time playing yard games, golfing, and shopping. The house was well stocked, and it was easy to cook and grill. A week was not enough time to do everything we wanted to do.

Wonderful getaway for those with children. Every kind of game imaginable to keep the young ones entertained. Very clean and comfortable beds, fully stocked kitchen with coffee, spices, etc. There was no need for us to leave the property at all which is a blessing when there are infants involved. Highly recommend to everyone!

Wonderful family friendly home

We had a wonderful time at this gem of a home! So many activities and games to play for the entire family. We had 8 adults and 2 twin babies age 1. Overall, the house was pretty baby friendly, we brought some extra baby gates to place on the outside deck which worked out perfectly! The house was clean and beautifully decorated. The beds were comfy and the linens were so soft! The kitchen was stocked with everything you could need to cook meals. I know other reviewers mentioned the rules posted but we appreciated them and found them very informative. We will most definitely be coming back.

Gem In The Pocono Woods

What a wonderful property this is for an occasion. Perfect for a getaway and tons of amenities for a birthday, family, bachelor or bachelorette party. First off the property can sleep 10 and is very clean. The house sits upon a large secluded hill, and offers many fun games such as darts, mini golf, Foosball, ping-pong to name a few. In the backyard there is a wonderful cute sauna and hotub. The property is prepared for all of your needs. Also a few fun attractions nearby, shooting range and a casino. We will be back!!

So much family fun!

This house is a gem! The house itself is updated, clean, and beautifully decorated. All the basics and essentials are provided - linens, towels, kitchen basics, toiletries, etc. Donna and Paul were quick to respond to every question/request and were very accommodating. They even left a little welcome basket. Some people mention the rules in their reviews, but honestly, they are common sense and just ask that you be respectful in their home - something I would hope everyone does anyway :) Now the BEST part of this home, especially for families, is the crazy amount of games, entertainment, and amenities they provide. We were NEVER bored. Our kids, ages 7 and 8, were in heaven. The backyard is huge, but even if the weather was bad, we would have enough inside to keep us happy for days. The house really was put together with guests in mind. We will be back!

Outdoor space was great for sports and relaxing. indoor space was perfect for games and relaxing. House was FULLY EQUIPED and the CLEANEST house we have ever stayed at. Hosts were available and friendly. Don't be put off by the comments about "rules" . The "rules" are practical and completely reasonable. We didn't find it restrictive in anyway.

Very clean. Very organized

So many perks to this property. The pictures do not do it justice. The kitchen is very well stocked. But I would recommend bringing your own frying pan. All of the Teflon was scratched. But the furniture is comfortable. The beds are comfortable. The linens are soft. The bathrooms are very clean. There is so much to do and everything is very well stocked. Plenty of towels for everybody. And the game room was such an added bonus to our trip. The property was easy to find and we had plenty of privacy. Small sidenote for those of you with allergies. There are a lot of air fresheners in this house. This was an issue for my mother who stayed with us. We would definitely go back again. Impressively clean. Easy to communicate with owners. Quick response time. Five star!

Best rental we ever had

Of 20+ rental properties we have stayed at, this was the best by far. Updated, immaculately clean, most stocked kitchen ever, stunning property, more games then you could possibly play in a week, and air-conditioning that actually kept the house cool. All located less than an hour from all the hikes, ATV riding, water park, shopping and restaurants. Donna and Paul were as sweet as can be. Remember renters take care of the place that you rent, so properties like these continue to be made available.

Perfect home for all ages

This home is perfect if traveling with a family! Donna has everything waiting for you, to make you and your stay simplistic. We had 3 children ranging from teens to toddlers and most days they just wanted to stay at the house and play. From games, to activities, to amenities, this property is perfect. Donna communicated quickly, helped plan the vacation and provided everything we asked for. The home is super clean, extremely cute and comfortable for all. You may find that kitchen may be stocked better than yours at home. The whole crew was happy with everything and we hope to come back again soon.

About the host

Hosted by Donna & Paul Harvan

Host profile image
avid travelers, my wife and myself, we've done it all... we've rented our share of houses and hotels on our trips and adventures loving the "wild" West Coast especially... our favorites are Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana with their stunning National Parks, abundant wild life and wonderful people... as well as our native Pennsylvania with many charming and beautiful as well as historic sites.... we've also traveled through Europe and loved it equally as much... we've also hosted another house in the Poconos for over 3 years now with our business partners... and loved it so much that we've decided to list yet another house, this time on our own... hopefully it will be just as successful as our 'first born' :)
we love the outdoors and sports, all the fun things in life, good friends, food, and laughter :) and we hope to help create fun and warm memories for others at our new place... we love nature and all animals equally and are excited to offer a glimpse into their natural habitat right from the terrace of our home... we truly enjoy building and creating things and we are passionate about rustic style which shows throughout the house as we have lovingly decorated the house with original pieces.... we hope to host kindred souls that will love and enjoy the style, energy, and atmosphere. We are available for any questions or comments and look forward to hosting at our Cherry Lane Retreat :) xoxoxo Paul and Donna

Why they chose this property

Location and privacy - 2 things that not every rental property on the market can offer. The surroundings - beautiful grass fields, plants, trees, stream (which we are looking to clean and make accessible in the future), nature - we get to see deer, turkeys, foxes, and groundhogs on daily bases... even got visit from a coyote and a bear who tried to steal our trash container!! but did not succeed :)..
It's just such a beautiful property - if you love nature and enjoy 'sanctuary', peace and quiet and relaxation YET want to be literally within 15 minutes from all major attractions!! - this is the place :)

We are:
- 15 minutes to Camelback Ski Resort with skiing and snowtubing in winter, outdoor water park in summer AND indoor water park Aquatopia all year long
- 15 minutes from Kalahari - another indoor water park and spa
- 13 minutes from Mt. Airy Casino
- 15 from horse back riding at Mountain Creek Riding Stables
- 4 minutes from Sunset Hill Shooting Range
- 15 minutes from Pocono Rocks amusement and Cafe
and so much more.
We are 6 minutes from The Crossing Shopping Outlets, 6 minutes from Weiss Market (grocery store), 15 minutes from Walmart, Aldi, within 15 minutes from breweries, wineries, diners/restaurants and so on :) we promise we're not making this up :)

What makes this property unique

Besides the gorgeous lot and views, the house itself is very light/sunny...
It really has this special aura, energy..
The skies are equally mesmerizing here - not sure how to explain it but the views of the star lit sky at night are better than from anywhere else :)
And of course, we truly believe that there is not another house in the entire Poconos that offers the amount of amenities, activities, and tranquility :)
