About this property

"Lakestone" Lake View, Near Beach, Hot Tub, Grill

Located on the banks of Lake Shangri La and offering 6 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, the touches of red found throughout will welcome you in as the comfortable furnishings and décor invites you to stay longer than you had originally planned. This property has room for 18 guests, so the 17 people who accompany you on your Pennsylvania getaway will truly feel special!
Behind the Red Door

Vibrant and inviting, the red door of Lakestone stands out against the sandy beige siding and snow white trim, inviting you to walk inside and check out the wonders that can be found there! The kitchen is open to the rest of the house, offering warm cabinets, updated appliances, and cool granite countertops; the breakfast bar that stands separate from the rest of the counters allows 3 guests to sit and chat with whoever is the cook of the day! In the dining room, a large wood table sits atop a brilliant red rug, and the space, although it is tucked away at the corner of the house, seems large and grand as the windows that surround the table offer unobstructed views of the landscape and the lake.

Wood floors lead to the living area, in which a stone fireplace serves as a focal point, topped with a state-of-the-art television, and surrounded by sofas and chairs that are plush and comfortable. More touches of red can be found in the rug under your feet and in the curtains that hang on either side of the oversized glass doors that lead out to the deck. In the bedrooms, a variety of beds ranging from twin bunks to king-sized mattresses beckon when the moon rises high and your eyelids begin to fight a losing battle with the sandman. A game room with pool table, a loft space with its own bed, and a mudroom that offers wood lockers, a washer and dryer, and an extra refrigerator finish out the tour of the inside.
Of Course, There Is More!

With the sights and sounds of the lake located just outside your door, you'll find yourself wanting to spend as much time as possible outside! Whether you are barbecuing on the deck on a warm summer evening, soaking in the hot tub as the night air starts to become cool, or are just watching the sunset into the lake, you will know that choosing Lakestone for your vacation accommodations was the best decision you have ever made. Reserve your stay today!

Please Note:
-No Prom or Grad Groups, even with adult signature or chaperones!
-Lakestone comes with 18 wristbands to use for the beach/ lake and amenities. (Tennis Courts, Volleyball Courts, Basketball Courts, Fishing & Playground Area)
-A Vehicle Registration Form is required for this community.

Great property, new and clean.
This property was exactly as described and fit my family perfectly. The bathrooms and the kitchen is clean and the beddings and towels has been sanitized. Location is one house away from the beach. A bit expensive but I will rent the house again. Thank you Carmen for responding to our request for further instructions on how to use the thermostat and to the engineer who walked us through the instructions.

House is in a great location. Very big and specious especially for a large group.
My experience was great for this house. My family and friends truly loved the space and will definitely plan to book again. Prepare to carry your toiletries. For the price they charge, guests should be provided will all toiletry necessities such as toilet paper and tissue and also garbage bags.

Wonderful house! Kayak alert!!
We had a wonderful stay! The house was beautiful and suited our family perfectly. It is only two houses from the beach - Perfect for teens to have some freedom. My only complaint would be about the information given ahead by the owner. I had asked if we could put our kayaks in the lake at the house since it was on the lake. His response was "no". He gave no explanation. When we got there and asked if we could put the kayaks in at the boat launch, we were told they had to be registered with the community and that the owner should have told us that. So we were on the lake but had to go half an hour to another lake to kayak. Every time I asked a question of the owner, he was very short and seemed annoyed that I asked him for info. We did have a wonderful time, though and the house is great. Plenty of beach passes. Would go again.

Nice House, Pretty Area, Wasn't a Fan of Neighbors
This is a large, clean, nicely furnished house. Per previous renters, only starter supplies are provided — bring everything: hand/dish/laundry soaps, paper towels, bathroom floor mats, toilet paper, etc. Bath towels + bed sheets are provided. Kitchen is well equipped w/ lots of dishes, pots, 2 dishwashers, etc. Upper deck is beautiful w/ a grill (2 propane tanks incl.) which we loved using while catching up w/ family post-Covid lockdowns for a weekend. Hot tub (access w/ a key) is a nice bonus. There's a small lake/river behind the property + man-made beach (no pets) / basketball + tennis courts nearby. NOTE: ALL garbage must be pre-sorted (recyclables: cardboard, plastic, glass + garbage) and dropped off in garbage dumpsters a couple of streets down. They have strict rules on what garbage gets dumped in what dumpster (these details NOT incl. in house rules). NO PETS or OUTSIDE FIRE PIT allowed. Also, this property is managed by Pocono Mountain Rentals (not VRBO) and they weren't friendly when I had confusion on how the property is listed on VRBO. They claimed they don't manage the listing on VRBO which is super misleading — bc you don't learn about this until after you book it. Lastly, the house is pretty, neighborhood is beautiful. BUT, we were a family of South Asians and felt VERY discriminated against. We decided to go for a walk around the lake on a beautiful sunny day WITH beach passes provided at the house — you need them to access the beach area — and a white woman (resident) from the area called security to check on us. There are a LOT of vacation rental properties here, so large groups of families taking a walk shouldn't be a surprise to them. Before anyone jumps to any conclusions, we are not rowdy, are well educated, and most of us are 1st gen Americans. We also had a white guy from their "neighborhood watch" share how there are sightings of escaped black convicts sometimes and that's when they "grab their rifle and go koon hunting." (If you don't know what that means, look up how it's used as a derogatory term to describe a black person.) He then assured us that we were the "good brown" skinned people. UNBELIEVABLE. This ruined our experience and we decided to spend the rest of our time at the house. In conclusion, if you're white or look white, this will be a great experience for you. If you're colored in any way, I wouldn't rent this place. Needless to say, we will NEVER return or rent this property again.

Great house for group stays
Rented the house to celebrate a friends birthday and do some skiing. Overall great experience. House was very spacious, kitchen was fully equipped and everything worked fine (hot tub, speakers, tv, grill, etc). Location is also very convenient, close to several skii resorts and the highway exit.

It was so spacious, great facilities, with a lovely hot tub and deck and bbq! We were next door to the sandy beach on the lake and spent a lot of time swimming and enjoying that! Such a great experience, would DEFINITELY come back! The poconos mountain rentals were also available any time of day for any questions and concerns and went above and beyond to make our stay perfect!

The Best Vacation I Could Ask For!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I stayed for the week after my wedding with my wife and a bunch of our closest friends, and it was fantastic. The beach was practically steps away, the facilities were super clean, and when we did have a couple of small maintenance issues come up they were handled quickly and professionally by PMR. We had such a good time, and having all that space gave us the ability to really spread out and not feel like we were on top of each other. I would definitely stay again!

We did not realize that the house would come with no hand or dish washing detergent - which we had to run out to get. Other than that, great weekend, beautiful lake, and a great house to host a party.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location was great for our group. Lots of bedroom options, and we enjoyed the pool table, hot tub, PS3, and tvs. If anyone is very sensitive to noise, this might not be the best option. Most of the rooms are located just off common areas. The house is obviously used mainly as a rental, so things are very bare bones. Renting sheets and towels is $300 extra. They remind you to bring everything down to toilet paper and detergent, but never mentioned bringing bath mats. Remember to bring a bath mat, and everything from tp, napkins and soap if you rent this place. They do have dishes, pots, and pans. The hot tub was nice but had to be refilled a bit everyday. We used buckets. It's the little things they don't tell you, huh? Now you have it!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an enjoyable second stay at the Lakestone Lodge. We had 4 families with a total of 6 kids ranging from 20 months to 9 years old. We love the location which is within a short walking distance to the beach and lake which are very private. The house itself has two dishwashers and two refrigerators that came in handy. There is also a large washing machine and dryer. The house was very clean and the beds were comfortable. Everyone liked the house so much last year that we stayed there again this year.
