The Strand Lake House is perfect for our Poconos trips, it consistently works out really well for 4 adults, 2 kiddos and 2 dogs. The heat/ac is central and easy to use, we previously encountered many area properties which have baseboard heat and room air conditioners which makes it difficult to control during the April timeframes we plan our visits (temps almost freezing at night and days can get into the mid to high 70s. This was our third year staying at Strand Lake House. The owners are very thoughtful and make our stay easy - toilet paper, paper towels, dish detergent, trash bags and sponges were all provided. The hot tub, fenced back yard and fire pit are icing on the cake. The road is a dead end and very lightly travelled. We’ll be back for a fourth stay in 2027.

Wonderful family stay!

We had an amazing stay! The house was perfect for our large family holiday and incredibly well-appointed. We made good use of all of the games and there were plenty of spots for everyone to have their own space to play, read, watch movies and bake! Seth was very easy to communicate with and made everything very easy. Thank you again!

Perfect house for family and friends

we used to own in Timber Trails. This was a perfect house for a family of 5 with a couple of friends. The owner was accessible at all times. It has a huge family room and is very clean. they had rooms for kids to hang in and the most board games I've ever seen collected.

Easter Getaway

We had the best time staying at this beautiful property. The kids (ages 6,10,12) loved the swings, bikes, scooters, and the hot tub out back. Plenty of games and we loved the projector for movie night. Seth was always quick to respond and the house had everything we needed for a comfortable stay away from home. We got day passes to Kalahari water park which was only a 10 min drive. Overall, we had a blast!!

Great mountain house! Great location few houses away from the other half of my family.

Can’t say enough about this place. I had my kids and grandkids all together for the weekend and it was just a perfect. The house had everything you needed from toys and games to linens to well stocked kitchen ( pots and pans and utensils not food of course). The projection TV was great for watching movies at night. We would definitely recommend and will be back. Great communication with the owner, fast response.

Wonderful Stay

Our family really enjoyed our stay at the Strand house - it was impeccably clean, well-organized, and had everything that we could have possibly needed. The house is spacious and beautiful, and great for families - our kids (1 and 3) loved the play area in the loft with toys and books, and had plenty of space to play and run around on the main floor. The house is located at the end of a quiet street, so we were able to play outside without worrying about traffic. We appreciated that linens and towels were provided. The host (Seth) was very helpful and responsive, which made our already pleasant stay even better. Thank you - we hope to return soon!

A Week at the Lake

The home was exactly as expected. The kitchen was incredibly well stocked...we found everything that we needed. The hot tub was enjoyed by all of us. My granddaughter loved all the arts and crafts supplies that she found. Last, but not least, was the projector TV. We all loved the size of it and the fact that you could watch from the kitchen and dining room as well as the living room area. Thanks for making our stay so enjoyable.

Beautiful mountain house!

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful mountain house! What a gorgeous home. The living room was stunning with a central fireplace and huge picture windows facing the trees. Our child loved the play area and toys found in corners around the house. Everything was very comfortable. We also enjoyed the back porch, although we didn’t have a chance to create a campfire. All in all, it was a lovely place and extremely comfortable. The hosts were also quick to respond to any questions.

Would definitely recommend!

The house was beautiful, clean and spacious. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything clearly labeled. Our kids loved the toys and games that were available as well as the den. The projector is a really cool feature too and made for a great family movie night. The location is ideally located near 3 ski mountains and in a quiet neighborhood. Seth couldn’t have been more accommodating and responsive. There were so many thoughtful details that made our stay even better. We would definitely stay here again!

Ideal for a family getaway

Beautiful high ceilings with an open floor plan and plenty of entertainment made this home the perfect place for our family. From the air hockey to the plethora of games and toys available, the kids stayed busy. As mentioned in other reviews, the projector was a nice touch considered we were all able to watch a movie together comfortably in the living room. The kitchen was well stocked with everything needed to prepare meals for a large group. In addition, we were impressed with the toiletries available. Seth was also very attentive. We lost service on the way over and he quickly text the code to enter the property. Would definitely stay again.

Lake Naomi / Pocono Pines for the Win @ Strand Lake House

This was our 2nd time visiting The Strand Lake House, this time for 11 nights. We really enjoyed our stay this year, just 2 of us for a week and then the family joined for Kalahari and Mini-golf fun. This home is really well cleaned and organized - we have not seen dust anywhere. The Owners are amazing with great communication. We haven't had to contact them with a problem because we haven't had any, they make sure everything runs smoothly. If you've used VRBO before you know there are the little things that impact your stay - like having to supply all the hand soaps, garbage bags, toilet paper, etc. This home has those, plus towels and bedsheets and has a nook where you can grab things you've forgotten like a toothbrush. We travel with our 2 dogs and the rear yard is fenced which is a huge benefit for us. Some mornings the deer are all around the fence quietly foraging, it's quite nice!The Lake Naomi area is now our favorite and this home is in a great area.

Excellent family house

I highly recommend this house and the host, Seth Melnick. We were on a family vacation with adult daughters and 3year old twin grandsons. The house has everything that you could ask for. There are tons of toys and books for the kids, as well as bikes and boats that the host lets guests use. The house is well laid out for a few families and is quite clean. The host has provided every amenity you could think of (ok, more Tupperware and dish towels would be good). He even left us a welcome gift of pasta, pancake mix, and pasta sauce to get us started. There are lots of beach areas to visit in Lake Naomi. We liked pebble Beach, where Seth keeps his boats and loved the Timber Trails beach w a playground. We did a temporary membership in the lake Naomi club. I’m not sure whether that is worth the money because a lot of the activiities are by online reservation and I found their system to be a bit of a pain. I did swim laps in the Lake Naomi pool every day. The kids took swim lessons at the community center but sign up for that was no small feat. In sum, we loved the house and the choices of beaches, hiking, boating and oool areas.

The Strand is a Great Destination

My family and I had the most delightful two week stay. The host/owners, Seth & Lauzanne, really created a home setting that is both welcoming and so convenient. Great location, the roads didn't have much traffic and the house itself is on a 'no outlet' road so even less traffic. The neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful. We cooked dinner many of the nights and the kitchen was really well stocked for it. The house is well appointed as well and setup with paper towels, toilet paper, dish soap, hand soap to get you started. We took our 2 pups and were prepared with tie-outs for the yard. We didn't need them, the backyard was fenced off which made it incredibly easy to monitor and clean-up. One thing I noticed is whomever is cleaning the home is amazing, literally there wasn't dust anywhere - it was the lack of dust that drew our attention. Linens and bath towels were all provided. Bring a pool/beach towel for the hot tub - you'll want to enjoy that it was a really nice way to wind down in the evening. Lastly, the upstairs loft is a children's area. We had a 6 year old and a 1 year old, they loved that area and the toys & books there. We visit the Poconos each April and we'd definitely consider staying at the Strand Lake House again!

Great Family Getaway!

We spent a long weekend at Strand Lake House in May. We're a family of five (three kids 10, 8 & 6) and setting was perfect for a quiet break. It was possibly the cleanest rental we've ever stayed in and the hosts were attentive and available by text if any problems had arisen (zero issues from start to finish). The games consoles, board games, projector and outside play area were all big hits with our kids and we'd happily go back. Highly recommend a stay here. The photos, though great, don't do the house justice.

Stayed three nights, check-in and check-out very easy. GREAT communication from property owner. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Stayed with our 2 adult sons, Daighter-in-law, twin granddaughters (15 months) and my husband. No issues, no problems! The wine that was left was the name of one of our granddaughters!! Plenty of condiments, cooking utensils and great cookware/bakeware. Beds were very comfortable! Two rooms were big enough to accommodate 2 pack n plays for the babies! We put the pack n plays in the bedroom with 2 twin beds and there was still plenty of room for 2 people to sleep in those beds if necessary! Would rent again.

I literally cannot say enough about this property - it is one of the best we have ever stayed at. It is beautiful, spacious, comfortable and the owners have thought of everything you could possibly need. The check in process was a breeze. We were greeted with treats from the owners. The kitchen is incredibly well stocked. There are travel size toiletries if you forget anything, a charging station, Alexa, etc. A very cool thing is a projector that you can use to play movies on the wall - like being at the theater. The owner was very accessible and pleasant to deal with. The hot tub on the deck was a huge bonus. We would absolutely stay at this property again.

About the host

Hosted by Seth Melnick

Host profile image
Lauzanne and Seth take pride in the experience they have built over the years together. Time with family traveling or staying put and sipping hot chocolate are what keep people grounded. Taking cues from their time in South Africa, New Zealand and across the country they welcome you into your home away from home.

Why they chose this property

As your hosts we want you to not only stay at our home, but have a fully realized experience. From the open layout to the chef friendly kitchen to the private spaces and nooks, everyone in your group can find their own rhythm. Warm wood tones and floor to ceiling windows drench you in the natural surroundings of Lake Naomi.

We also try to make your experience seamless with an amenity closet featuring any toiletries, first aid supplies, bug sprays and sunblock that you might have forgotten. Our garage holds bikes for the kids, boats for the family and other fun items to explore. When you arrive some basic staples such as coffee and basic food greet you so you don’t have to immediately rush out to the supermarket.
