Every year we have a sibs reunion and this was one of the best VRBO homes we have stayed at in the Pocono region. I have never seen such a well equipped kitchen. It had everything we needed. Also, we look for a home that can accommodate 8 people at a dining table and around the living room and this fit the bill. There is also a 3 season room everyone vied for. It also had 3, yes 3, king size beds. The house was clean and spacious. And the cherry on top was the calm, beautiful, serene lake just steps from the house. The one negative as we sat on the dock basking in the autumn sun was that the acorns kept dive bombing us while we sat. We are looking forward to returning.

Great weekend

We had a great time. The house was in good condition and right on the lake with a nice view. The amount of kayaks and paddle boards was awesome for our group. It is a quieter lake, so not a lot of boat traffic from other groups.

This was our third stay at this wonderful lake house and three generations all had a fantastic time. The host is always quick to respond and check in was a breeze. This is the perfect vacation because everything you could want or need for the lake is right there. The kayaks and paddle boards were used a lot and we rented the pontoon boat again which everyone enjoyed! The improvements to the dock, extra porch and dock furniture, and a new refrigerator in the kitchen were very much appreciated! Mary W.

WONDERFUL WEEKEND

Had an amazing weekend with family at this house. It was everything they said it was. House was clean, plenty of space for all. Pontoon boat was great. Lots of time on the lake fishing, swimming and kayaking. Lake was really clear. Looking forward to another weekend at the lake.

Kitchen was very well stocked with everything. Disappointed with the weekend noise coming from the clubhouse. Owner kept saying it was a quiet neighborhood but we couldn’t sit outside on the weekend

Response from VrboOwner on 26 August 2025
We are happy to hear you felt the kitchen was well stocked! Our home is generally quiet and peaceful, as many reviews note. During the summer, the community clubhouse across the lake occasionally hosts live music on the restaurant’s waterfront deck around 7–10 PM on Fridays and Saturdays and 2–5 PM on Sundays. Guests have consistently reported enjoying our home’s outdoor areas throughout the weekends and have not mentioned this as a concern. Many enjoy the option for waterfront dining and entertainment at the restaurant. While we cannot control this activity, we are sorry you felt your stay was affected, and we will note the summer entertainment events in our listing description for future guests.

Big family lake home

Stayed with family for a week in Aug. We all had a great time. Plenty of room, beds were a bit uncomfortable and cleaning crew could be better. Overall great time on the lake, use of the boat, grill for dinners, fishing, campfires and sitting in the sun room. Owner and property manager Woody very responsive. Will enjoy renting again for more summers to come.

Great Lake House

This was a fabulous place for us to stay. It was near family that we were visiting and offered a beautiful backdrop and tons of fun water activities. The property is extremely clean and Woody was super responsive when we needed help. Although they couldnʻt repair the pontoon boat, the fact that they contacted a boat repairman was excellent. There were many kayaks, paddle boards and floaties to enjoy the lake! Love this home and would stay again next year.

The house and property are beautiful! We all had a great time paddle boarding, kayaking and playing games. The house has everything you need! From kitchen supplies, extra blankets and fire wood! We will definitely be coming back. The owner was great and always responsive! Even had a gift of chocolate chip cookies upon our arrival that were fantastic! I we recommend this house to everyone looking for a great vacation and beautiful place to stay.
