The home was so beautiful! The views of the lake were amazing! The dock was so refreshing to sit on and listen to the lake. The home had eveything we could need! The pool table, hot tub and games were all so fun!!! We had such a great time! Our fur babies also felt at home, which was a huge plus. The home was very clean, the Host had great communication! The parking was abundant.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience & pictures. Absolutely lovely.
Nothing beats celebrating your birthday at the Sunset Sanctuary! Hope to see you next year!
Thank you so much for your review! We are delighted to hear that everything was great during your stay at The Sunset Sanctuary. Our team works hard to provide top-notch service, and it's fantastic to know that we hit the mark.
I can’t begin to tell you how wonderful trip we had! The house was beautiful and the view was something that you just need to see in person. Pictures do not do it justice. My kids loved the kayaks and paddle board. They fished whenever they wanted and I’m pretty sure my two dogs are depressed that we’re not there anymore.! Thank you for a wonderful vacation!
The Sunset Sanctuary is in an ideal location. The outside deck and dock are a nice place to sit and relax by the water. The house was clean and provided enough space for our party of 4. It was too cold for us to use kayaks on the water, but there was plenty of firewood provided. The host was very responsive and answered any questions we had.
Beautiful, stylish, clean, and well equipped house for a fun stay with old friends. The host had great communication. and the lake is so serene. Not too touristy or over built.

Hi Bob, Thanks for taking the time to review us. After you mentioned the chair, we took it out of the living room. We replaced the umbrella. So sorry about the grill and pans - we will 100% address this. Glad you had a great time. See you again next time.
We thoroughly enjoyed the lakeside location, gorgeous surrounds, peaceful location and amazing cabin. Our host was amazingly kind and helpful. This was an excellent experience and I would highly recommend to everyone looking for a similar adventure!
This house is beautiful and the lake view is truly serene and stunning! We found everything to be clean and comfortable. We had a great time and this place is a top notch property. It was a lovely, spacious home in a great location on Lake Henry.
Comfortable home with everything needed. Fully stocked kitchen with All-Clad pans, clean hot tub ready to jump in, and a great pool table. Great communication from the host. Thank you!

Another wonderful stay!
This was our second time staying at this beautiful house and we were not disappointed. This home is beautiful and cozy and extremely clean. The owners are wonderful to work with and extremely responsive. We had one small issue no fault of the owners and they responded immediately and helped us out. Once again we had a perfect stay
Excellent, beautifully decorated and well stocked lake home. We felt at home immediately and enjoyed all of the thoughtful details of this home. Looking forward to a potential follow up trip when we can fully explore the area and enjoy being on or in Lake Henry! Highly recommended.

Amazing mom daughter fall trip
Loved looking out the back window towards the lake and seeing all of the colors of the leaves on the trees. The hot tub was amazing and was nice to enjoy after our hikes. The house was very roomy for us and awesome to be able to cook dinners. The beds were comfortable and the location worked out for us to use the house as home base and drive to Honesdale, Hawley, Jim Thorpe and the Delaware Water Gap. Two thumbs up for this rental!!
