A delightful getaway

The house was comfy, clean, and very spacious, the covered porch being my favorite spot, especially during a thunder storm. The lake was clean, swimmable and had lots of fish! The neighbors were friendly. The house had everything we needed for entertainment; games, movies, tubes and kayaks. We really enjoyed our stay!

Perfect Vacation

Five adults and 2 children shared this home for a week. It was great! Home was clean, Sarah was very helpful answering questions. We are from FL, so the home had everything we needed and we only had to grocery shop. The neighbors were very kind as well. It was a very special week for our family. Thank you!

Magical Stay

I grew up in nearby Scranton and have never heard of Handsome Lake (where the property is located). Being familiar with the area and many of the lakes and ponds close by my expectations were significantly exceeded. The house, property manager and experience were first class. Highly recommend a stay.

Cozy Lakehouse

Spent a skiing weekend at this house, and must say couldn’t have gone smoother. House is very clean views around the property are beautiful and close to Elk Mountain owners were a big help and really make sure you enjoy your stay.

Very Nice waterfront property close to Elk Mountain

Very spacious and comfortable property right on the water with docks and great view. The property was as described in VRBO. Was nice and clean including providing of clean towels, bedding, etc. Clearly the owners take good care of the property and interaction with Sarah was effortless. We there there to ski at Elk which was only 10-12 minutes each way and almost a direct route. Easy peasy. Thanks for such a relaxing visit!

About the host

Hosted by Sarah Cremer

I am a licensed real estate broker but my family bought this home as a getaway for ourselves. We absolutely love this home and our neighbors but just don't have enough free time to get there as much as we would like. I only live about 15 minutes from the property and can be there to help in any way as needed.

Why they chose this property

We just loved the house and large rooms. It is more than a seasonal cabin, it is truly a home. It has all of the modern amenities one could want but still maintains charm and a uniqueness.

What makes this property unique

Kayaks, tubes, etc. for use. Game room under the garage to hook up an Xbox or Playstation. Fooseball table. Screened in porch. Large patio with dining and seating area.
