Nice place to stay. Wish we had more time to enjoy the lake and nature surroundings. Mostly spent the night and showered for the next day visiting grandkids who live nearby.

What a great find in Pine Grove. We usually stay in one of the hotels off the highway, but I noticed this place on Expedia. I couldn't be happier with my new favorite place to stay when we go to Rausch Creek.

Great location, with close proximity to lake (no direct lake access) and surrounding park. My brothers and I came to town for a family gathering over Labor Day Weekend, and enjoyed convenience of being near the lake while also minutes away from groceries and supplies. With 3 beds, and a covered outdoor dining area along with a firepit, we had everything we needed for an enjoyable weekend. Property is clean and host is nearby and very helpful.

Quiet retreat

We had a great time with everything needed for the week. Our kids were away at a nearby camp and so we worked while taking time to enjoy the lake and trails nearby during down time. The internet speed was indeed fast and we appreciated the use of the kayaks. Tracey was very responsive to questions and problem solving a few things in the beginning.

Loved the area

Such a cute area. I stayed here for 2 months for work and it was perfect. Tracey was great, showed me around the lake, got me a kayak to use, made sure I had everything I needed. I work nights and this is near the end of a dead end road and was so quiet and peaceful but close enough to places to get what I needed while I was there. Would definitely stay again if I'm out that way.

Great base for exploring the area!

House was just as advertised! Clean and well cared for. Had everything we needed. Great base for exploring the area and visiting with family. The Hershey Park was closed when were there but the Spa was great. Lots of shopping within an easy drive too. And SCRANTON for my fellow Office Fans! There's plenty online that you can find to go do a little driving tour. We did dinners at the house part of the time, but there was a good local pizza place too. Looks like it would be a pretty place in the summer and fall to visit too. . Owner was easy to talk to and we had no problems while we were there to be addressed. Some heavy snow before we got there, but they had come out and shovleled the place out so we didn't have to stomp through snow.

Nice and warm in winter!

Good place! Toasty warm in winter! Comfortable couch and the chair in the living room is the most comfortable chair ever! Awesome big TV with Roku sound bar. Beds are comfortable. The kitchen cabinets desperately need to be replaced! The bathroom needs some love. It needs hooks and a curtain for the front facing window. The faucet knobs are upside down. The higher shower head needs to be replaced. Over all a great place that could be perfect with some mostly minor tweaks!

Disliked: Location

The house was clean but not as expected. Pictures looks great and big than it is in reality.

This house it small. No really wherever u expect from the pictures. Leaving room and kitchen are small. No christmas decoration. It was clean. C The door from one of the closet didnt work properly. In one of the room was all the cleaning supplies. You could see all of tehm since that closet has no doors. Not recomended this property to be rented.

Why they chose this property

This property is tucked along the back side of Sweet Arrow Lake County Park. You will find it to be very peaceful here for those of you looking to get away from the stresses of everyday life!

What makes this property unique

The location of this property is the key! There are a few kayaks available upon request and the lake has some to rent if you need more. You can enjoy evenings around your campfire or throw a game of horse shoes. You will find hiking trails around the lake and you can hike to the waterfall below the lakes dam. You will find a few areas of disk golf near the lakes dam.
