Family Vacation

The space was clean and great for our group of 11 (9 adults, a toddler, and an infant). They provided a lot of helpful information about the amenities offered and things to do in the area with their digital guidebook and the information available at the house once we arrived. The kitchen was well equipped for staying in and cooking, and we liked that the cabinets and drawers were labeled. It made it very easy to find things! The amenities offered were great; our toddler especially loved going to the pools! The hosts were quick to respond to any questions I had before and during our stay. Overall, a great experience for our family vacation!

Awesome Pick

My friends and I wanted a home that would allow us to have guest over for a Birthday dinner party. We were plesantly surprised by this listing. It had the perfect amount of rooms and the home looked beautiful in the pictures. The homeowners answered all my questions in a timely manner. When we arrived the home was beautiful. It was clean and well maintained. We enjoyed using the BBQ grill as well as their firepit. We had a few issues which the homeowner said they'd take care of. Overall a great weekend celebration. I highly recommend this listing.

Pristine home perfect for multi-family vacation

This listing was spot on to its description! This is a wonderfully clean and comfortable home with plenty of room for three full families to spread out and enjoy. The hosts were very responsive and left no part of the check in or check out to mystery. The community is quiet and there is just enough nearby to stay entertained in the doldrums of winter. Many thanks to the hosts on maintaining a great property!

Top-Notch Stay

I spent most of my life in the Poconos but never stayed in a short-term rental there. My family and I were blown away by Nathan and Kara's home. From the interior design to the ease of having a fully equipped kitchen, to all of the little details throughout the house (consistent labeling, wifi password, and even fun facts!), they exceeded our expectations. We really couldn't have picked a better vacation home. You can tell they go above and beyond with all of the little touches they sprinkle throughout the house. The hosts were extremely communicative before, during, and even after the stay. I highly recommend them, and I hope to be back soon!!

We rented this as the 'guest house' for a larger group. If it was a little bigger, we would have utilized this as our base camp - very nice home. Very comfortable. Great parking for a large group. Would definitely stay here again.

A great weekend getaway!

Wish we could’ve stayed longer! The house was very well appointed, we had everything we needed. It was clean, conveniently located, nicely decorated and in the perfect location. We loved the fire pit out back and the owners left us stuff to make s’mores, it was the perfect touch. We can’t wait to return! You won’t be disappointed!

Cute house in Wallenpaupack Lake Estates

My family had a great time and enjoyed staying within the WLE community. The house was clean and ready for the 4pm check in. We had enough room for my multi generational family, including cars. The community is easy to navigate and everyone is super friendly. Great place to relax, disconnect and enjoy lake life.

Good family vacation

We had a good time. The layout of the house was good for multiple families. Living space on each floor. Being on the busy road was the only issue. It made it hard for the kids to go ride bikes in the neighborhood wothout navigating the busy road first to get into the rest of the community.

Wonderful visit

Great property for our two families (with 7 under the age of 8); the listing and property is very well organized and the communication is excellent. The neighborhood has great amenities. We were a bit early in the season so couldn't take advantage of everything; the only item to be aware of is that the road outside of the house is faster than I would expect - no issue at all for older kids but need to keep an eye on the little ones. Great visit, and we would certainly come again! Thank you again, Nathan!

Why they chose this property

We loved the idea of owning a home in such a family-friendly community that has a great location to Lake Wallenpaupack while also offering such a wide variety of amenities. We have grown to love the small community of Wallenpaupack Lake Estates (WLE)as they are very family focused and often offer great activities for kids of all sizes.

What makes this property unique

We were able to purchase two homes next to each-other within the same community giving us the opportunity to rent both homes to large groups. This has been a great option for larger groups.

Unlike some of the other communities in the area, WLE offers an indoor swimming pool along with their 2 large outdoor pools. The pools along with all of the other activities within the community are wonderful to keep the whole family busy year-round. The fact that the amenities are included free of charge within our community instead of charging extra was a big benefit. All this while being so close to Lake Wallenpaupack was the reason we chose this location! :)
