Great house

The house was clean and organized. Well stocked kitchen (loved the labels everywhere!), plenty of beds and bathrooms, great game room (the kids had a blast) that is well maintained, and we loved the hot tub. We went skiing at blue mountain and it was only 30 minutes away. Really easy to get to. Overall this house was amazing and we highly recommend.

Great weekend getaway

Our large group was very happy with our stay. Multiple individuals commented on how clean the property was. We had plenty of bedrooms for all the families needed and were happy we included the linens in our rental. Ralph was so easy to work with and was extremely responsive, even though we did not need anything during our stay and had no issues.

Poconos Weekend

We had a spectacular time in this gorgeous, spacious, well-appointed, and organized home. Notwithstanding its proximity to Jim Thorpe, the home was incredibly easy to find and had a host of amenities for us to enjoy (pool table, hot tub, multiple TVs, fire pit, PacMan machine). Not a moment was wasted exploring the immediate area and we saw an abundance of deer roaming around. You owe it to yourself to rent this Poconos home. Life is too short!

End of school vacation

This property is beautiful!! The house was very clean. We loved the hot tub in the cool temps each night. The game room was alot of fun. It gave us something else to do besides watch movies at night. Its not a far drive from Jim Thorpe. The kayaks and canoes were great on the lake despite the cooler temps. We had a couple problems but the host responded very quickly and went out of his way to rectify them. He also was able to accommodate an early check in which we really appreciated! We enjoyed our stay!! I would highly recommend this place. It is definitely a wonderful house to vacation in!

Beautiful Brand New Mountain Home!

This house is gorgeous! New construction and extremely spacious. The deck is great and propane fire pit is easy to use and perfect for a nighttime hangout spot. Wish we could’ve stayed longer and we’ll definitely consider returning in the future. It’s stocked with spices, kitchen supplies, soaps, and laundry detergent which was a plus, too. We left something of ours after our stay and the homeowner shipped it to us quickly and packaged with care. The only downside in our opinion is the misrepresentation of the air conditioning. There is a wall unit in the kitchen and it just doesn’t keep the bedrooms and baths cool enough on summer days. Looking at the listing, I was under the impression it was fully air conditioned. Many people probably rent in the cooler months, so this is likely a non issue for most.

Great family house in the Poconos

Great house for extended family get together over the Thanksgiving holiday. Big common areas and kitchen for cooking and hanging out. Plenty of fun amenities for kids and a beautiful surrounding area with lots of deer. There was great communication from the owner and everything was easy to coordinate and check-in/check-out was a breeze.
