The Harmony Cottage was the perfect place for our girls getaway weekend. The pictures on the posting definitely need to be updated but it suited our needs for the weekend. The hot tub was amazing and much needed after horse back riding and waterfall hiking. And the bunk bed mattresses were surprisingly comfortable!

The house is dated and has a very strong musty smell. Everything had to be washed after returning home due to the smell. The back door also does not lock. Positives were that the team was very responsive when I asked if the fireplace worked which it does not. The check in process is also easy. We enjoyed our weekend but unfortunately would not book there again.

We had a wonderful stay in the Poconos. Whenever anything popped up with house needing repairs the host responded promptly. My family enjoyed relaxing by the fire pit or in the hot tub after days filled with hiking, fishing, and water activities.

Days full of hiking, fishing, and time on the water, then winding down by the fire pit or in the hot tub — sounds like the Poconos delivered exactly what your family was after. Thank you for noting how quickly things were handled when they came up; our team takes real pride in staying responsive. We appreciate the kind words and would love to welcome your family back anytime.

The house was cozy tucked away from the busier lake access. We loved the hot tub and tons of wildlife in the yard. The house itself was a nice fit for our family of 5, with extra space. The house was older, but still had everything we needed. The property company was informative and available if we needed them. We had a great time in Lake Harmony and exploring Hawk Falls and Pocono Rafting near by.

Hawk Falls and rafting in the Poconos make for a great few days, and we're glad the house gave your family of five a quiet home base to come back to. The wildlife in the yard and evenings in the hot tub are two of our favorite things about this spot, so it's wonderful to hear you enjoyed them too. Thank you for noting that our team was available when you needed us. We appreciate the thoughtful review and would love to welcome you back to Lake Harmony.

The home offers great value for what it delivers— a comfortable location in a lush resort town with solid Wi-Fi, nearby groceries and restaurants, and an ever-ready hot tub. However, while my impression the property was definitely positive overall, there were a couple of disappointing discoveries I made when I checked into it: The game tables which the owner lists under the amenities section are all miniature, and the bunk bedroom does not have working air conditioning. There were ample fans to counteract the latter issue somewhat, but this did not nullify the inconvenience of having to experience the overheating and set them up. Despite these problems, the house is still a great deal and a property which I would happily recommend.

It's great to hear the home delivers such solid value overall — that mix of a lush resort setting, reliable Wi-Fi, easy access to groceries and restaurants, and a hot tub always ready to go makes for a comfortable base. Thank you for taking the time to flag the game tables and the bunk room's cooling; those details genuinely help, and we've passed them along to our team to address. We appreciate the recommendation despite the hiccups, and we'd love to welcome you back for an even smoother stay next time.

Relaxing and Spacious.

It was such a nice place to stay. It had enough space for my husband and I and all 6 kids. It has air and heating which is great for all seasons. The kids loved the games, books, and hot tub. I would definitely come back!

The house was ok but needs some help the dishwasher was leaking every time it was used the breaker for kitchen outlets kept tripping, the air hockey and pool table were broken, and to small works for children under 9 years old, Friday evening was loud due to neighbors out partying most of the night at two other houses

Just ok

I will say for the price this place was ok. Many broken things like the front screen door. We couldn’t leave the screen door open because there was no screen- just open to the outside. Clearly they don’t want to invest any money in the home, inside or out. Kitchen drawers broken, extremely old pots, pan spatulas etc.. This house just needs work all around—paint, furniture and lighting upgrades to start. It was nice that linens and towels were included.

Thank you for your feedback, Nancy. We appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention. We want to let you know that we recently replaced the cookware with new items before your stay, and the storm door has been replaced since your visit. Additionally, we have scheduled a walkthrough of the home to provide targeted suggestions to the owner for further improvements. Your insights are invaluable as we strive to enhance the guest experience.

Great house close to Big Boulder

Pros: 1. Very cute house with 4 bedrooms. 2. Plenty of space for 2 families. 3. The kids loved the hot tub and the games. 4. It is very close to Big Boulder. 5. Small but very workable kitchen for making family meals. Cons: 1. Gas fireplace was needed to make the living room warm most days, but the ventilation of the gas fireplace was not adequate. A couple people of our party had nausea and headaches that got better after being outside for a while and did not come about when the fireplace was kept off. 2. Need more towels. There were only 8 towels provided for 8 people. That didn't leave any to have a dry fresh towel for the shower after using the hot tub. 3. Need to have more chlorine tablets available for the hot tub. The dispenser was empty and on the last day had a mild funky smell.

Too much $$$ for what you get

The house is a bit run down: unlevel floors, difficult to use cabinets/drawers, uncomfortable beds/couches, broken/unusable items (hot tub cover easy on/off mechanism and retractable awning), wobbly kitchen table, firepit has holes at base/wall connection, shaky/unstable bunk bed, and non working indoor fireplace. This house should be half the price of what is charged due to it’s mediocre conditions.

Nice home and great location

Had a great time with friends for this winter get away! The home was clean, although a little outdated (appliances, furniture), the hot tub was larger than expected and the atmosphere scerene. Just a few minutes away from Big Boulder we were able to go snow tubing. Would recommend for sure.

Overall Great Property and Very good location

We loved the place, the location and all amenities. Positives: 1) Appreciated plenty of plates and utensils in the kitchen; 2) Providing the laundry detergent and dishwasher supply is a plus; 3) Propane grill with extra propane cylinder is thoughtful; 4) We enjoyed the chairs outside around firepit - very comfortable. Few suggestions to the homeowner: 1) Both showers needs improvement - water flow is poor and below par. 2) Kitchen could use some more pots for cooking. Especially, when you market the property for big group.

Solid rental

We did two nights here as it was much more budget friendly than a lot of others in the general area and it fully met our expectations. Everything was as written and our weekend was very smoothe and we had a great time. The twin beds were very firm in the shared bedroom but we weren’t expecting four seasons style needing so it was all good. I’d easily recommend this place.
