Weekend getaway

Nice place for a couples get away. We love places with outdoor fire pit but unfortunately couldn’t use due to burn ban in place. Great game room. We enjoyed pool table and air hockey table.

A wonderful place to stay

This house was perfect for our stay.(9 people) so much room and everything you could need in a house. Very organized and very clean. The easiest people to deal with answered all questions we had and even gave suggestions where needed. Would highly recommend

Another great family vacation

This is the second time we stayed in this house, it suites our family perfectly. Enough space to spread out and the kids love running around outside. Nightly fire pits are always a hit! Hope to come again next year!

Great getaway

Great layout for a group. The house and particularly the kitchen are well stocked. Large dining room table is a real plus. First and second floor bedrooms have window-air conditioners. Only complaint is the basement is a bit musty even with the dehumidifiers.

Relaxing Time Away

Our family enjoyed a relaxing, quiet time away. There was plenty of space and the layout of the first floor was great for a large family. The deck was thoroughly enjoyed! The only item I would mention is that it does not have central air as there are only window units in the three bedrooms.

Weekend in the woods

Very nice house in the woods on the quiet end of Lake Wallenpaupack. Beautiful setting, view and home. We had some rain but the kids loved all the games in the basement. Excellent host and very reponsive, attentive, and accomodating. Enjoyed the getaway. Thank you for sharing your home!

Great home in great location.

Have rented many places as part of an annual golf outing with friends. Two things set this place apart from a positive perspective: 1) Really clean and close to new. 2) Full bath on all three floors this is a really big deal Downside: 1) No linens 2) very few utensils. They have every accessory utensil you could ever want but only about 4 or 5 full knife, fork, spoon settings. Kind of weird. All in all, great spot. Huge lot so neighbors are not right on top of you and very friendly deer come by to visit each day. Thumbs up!
