Great outdoor areas

Host was very very nice and responsive. The grill didn’t work and they had a new one brought over within hours, really great service. It is a little smaller inside then what is seems online but the outdoor area makes up for it. We had a ton of fun fishing and using the watercraft. I would certainly recommend this place.

Very cool backyard !

Sharon is very accommodating and responded to all emails and questions immediately. The House was all we needed for our large group and the backyard is perfect for relaxing by the water. Don’t expect to do much swimming in the lake though. Kayaking is great but the bottom is very rocky and uneven by the shore. Great weekend getaway.

Great getaway during Covid-19

Family from 5 different states stayed at this beautiful property. The owner, Sharon, was readily available to answer all questions. She even ordered new ping pong paddles when one broke. The view is spectacular. It was just what our family needed during theses stressful Covid-19 days.

I enjoyed my stay at Sharon Dewitt's home. I loved everything about our stay, from her bedrooms, to her living rooms and Sauna. Her home was very cozy, clean, and as described. Sharon was a great host, and very easy to communicate with. She answered all my questions in a professional matter. I am looking forward to book her home in the near future.

Pocono Summit

This house was awesome! From the moment you pull up you can see the lake, it was a quiet neighborhood, with breathtaking views and sunsets. The deck outside hosted a few meals and it was spacious. The house was comfortable and had two living spaces which was great for the kids. The beds were comfy and there were tons of soft, cozy blankets. There was a tea kettle which I thought gave it a personal homey touch. The owners were awesome with communication and checked it to make sure we were having a great time. We had a perviously disheartening experience last year with a rental, so this really uplifted us and we all agreed this was one of the best vacations we had, there is so much to do and explore. We will definitely be back, and to be transparent the house is exactly as described ,again a refreshing piece of transparency when trying to search for a place that you want to rent and stay at.

Wonderful family vacation!

Our family had a wonderful week at this lakefront house! We enjoyed the various amenities and there was something for everyone. Highlights were time relaxing in the hot tub while looking out over the lake, enjoying time by the fire pit, a whole lot of paddling, and a marathon game of Jenga. The kitchen was well-stocked and the young ones enjoyed the selection of games! The owner is also very responsive and checked in to make sure we didn't have any issues or questions. ....And believe the hype about the sunsets over the lake. They're gorgeous. :) Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Great Owner and Great Location

My group (6 adults 8 kids, age range 11-6) really enjoyed our time here. Sharon was very responsive through the whole reservation process and during our stay. When we had a need, like an additional kayak paddle, she shipped it overnight to us. You seldom get that level of response from property owners. The house has a ton of amenties from the hot tub and sauna to the spacious dock and firepit area. The kids enjoyed fishing off the dock every morning and then taking the kayaks and canoe around the lake. The sunsets with the western exposure were amazing. Although the water is shallow at the end of the dock, the kids were able to swim. I do recommend wearing swim shoes since the lake has a very rocky bottom. The large and spacious deck was great for family style dinners. Excellent property and owner.

An Old Lake House

House is nice for what it is, although price is high for area. It’s an old lake house, perfect if you have kids and hanging by the lake. The view is great, and dock is good for fishing. The kayaks and canoe are fun to use, and pool table is a plus. There are some things that aren’t great, like faucet in bathtub has been re-glued several times, access panel in bathroom falls off of the wall. Deck seems like a safety hazard, and grill doesn’t work great. Kitchen is stocked with supplies. Lots of firewood! Would have been great for dogs, except dog age restrictions were given after we booked, so we weren’t able to bring them. Hot tub water was gross, like its never serviced and smells. It’s stated on agreement that it’s serviced, but we have a hot tub and can tell the water looks as if never drained-thick and filmy. There are also notes taped around with instructions to dump chlorine into it, showing that’s how they care for it. Not fair if you wanted to use it. We didn’t. There are strict rules in agreement about noise, but at 7:30am on Thursday, a roof is being fixed next door, as well as a nearby highway that is so loud at night that you can’t hear someone sitting next to you talk. Wi-Fi is weak. If you’re here to be outdoors and don’t care, then you’re fine. If you need it for something important, you may have trouble. Community lake/beach was closed for our entire visit, with no explanation or warning given. So, double-check that. Owner responds to texts.

We enjoyed our one week stay at this lakefront property. The house comes with all the amenities that made our stay comfortable although the furniture could use some upgrade.

Deceiving

his property was a huge disappointment and didn’t match the listing at all. The bedrooms were cramped, with little space to move, and there was barely any storage except for small nightstands—most of our belongings had to be left on the floor. One of the King mattresses felt like sleeping on concrete, and the trundle bed on the main floor couldn’t be used if someone was on the top bunk because there was no room for the ladder.The house was missing basic amenities, like hooks for towels (only two in the bathroom and none in the bedrooms) and essentials like paper towels, trash bags, and aluminum foil. The hand towels were stained and worn. There were no rugs anywhere, so the floors became wet and slippery after coming in from the outside.The common areas were just as disappointing. The living room, which had a loveseat and sofa were uncomfortable and too small for our group of 8 adults, and the furniture didn’t match the photos. The WiFi barely worked. Some people in our group were not able to access the internet on their phones because the WiFi was so bad. There is 5G but only so many people and devices can connect to it. 2 out of 3 TVs did not work. They are outdated. We know how to connect to the various streaming networks but we continued to get error messages.The basement had a heater with an open flame hanging on the wall outside a bedroom, it had a grate over it but would burn someone if they touched it and felt unsafe. The basement also didn’t have the bar shown

House was much smaller than looked in pictures. Basement was very musty smelling even with dehumidifier running. Needs better ventilation. Windows open helped but needed to be closed when rained. Bedrooms with bunk beds were completely filled with bed. No room for much else. Water has a very metal smell. Whenever used shower there would b a sewer smell in bathroom afterwards. Needed to always burn a candle. Wash cloths need to be replaced horribly stained probably from the hard water. Loved the lake and the pool. House could use a few repairs but cozy, clean and had everything we needed. Lovely neighborhood. Nice neighbors. Like walking around the lake. Kayaking was so much fun. Property manager was a great communicator.
