We’re so glad to hear the location was great and that the home was perfect for your stay! It also means so much to know you had a fantastic experience working with AvantStay — providing a seamless and supportive stay is always our goal. We’d love to welcome you back anytime!
We were looking for a place to enjoy a short get away. We actually got that along with all the comforts of home. The property was beautiful as it sits right on the lake. It was picturesque. We loved the decor of the house, you can tell someone took time to decorate so it would look nice but also function well too. We stayed during the winter but we are considering returning in the summer to enjoy the outdoor activities.

It’s great to hear you appreciated the decor and design—it means a lot to know those details made a difference in your stay. A return visit in the summer sounds like a fantastic idea, especially to enjoy everything the lake has to offer.
We’d love to host you again whenever you’re ready for your next visit!
Beautiful, clean, peaceful, and well stocked. We drove up for a little break from the city with our pup and really enjoyed this property. We’ll definitely be back.

Thank you, Alexandar! We’re glad to hear you had a great stay at Strawberry Shore. We apologize for the fireplace not being operational during your visit. We’re working on getting it back up and running for future guests. We look forward to welcoming you back and ensuring you have an even better experience next time!
Overall the place was great. Great views. Comfortable bed, plenty of amenities. The hot tub needed chlorine, so I wasn’t able to use it, and the trash area smelled pretty bad but that’s expected. No complaints and I would stay here again.

Thank you for your review, Noah! We're glad to hear that the property exceeded your expectations and that you found it to be the best value for the price. We’d love to welcome you back anytime!
Communication before check in and during stay was excellent. Property beautifully located. Check in and check out procedures easy. We stayed in late fall, and the lake was beautiful, can only imagine how enjoyable it would be in summer. Would have appreciated a second sofa in the living room or cushier chairs for sitting around together. And renters should know that the bathroom on the main floor is not adjacent to the main bedroom.

Our stay was nothing short of incredible. It was the serene and peaceful vacation we all needed to
re-charge. We will definitely be booking again soon!
The place was great. It was quiet, and private with a beautiful yard on the lake. Definitely would stay again.

It was a beautiful property, absolutely loved the view. There was just a couple issues, the hot tub was incredibly dirty. There was a ton of algae all around it so when we went to get in, it was floating all over the place and we all ended up rinsing off afterwards. One of the biggest reasons we booked this place was because of the hot tub. The rooms upstairs got really hot, even though it was snowing outside, we tried to turn the air conditioners on, and none of them worked. We use the remote we use the buttons on the unit and the air vents kept opening and closing repeatedly, but nothing would come out. The rest of the house is pretty clean except for the windows. For some reason they were incredibly dirty and it looked like someone kind of clean them, but not really. Other than that the property was beautiful and the view was spectacular.

Thank you for the detailed and balanced review. We're so glad the property and that spectacular view lived up to expectations. We're sorry the hot tub wasn't in the condition it should have been, especially as it was a big reason you booked, and that the cooling and the windows fell short too. Those issues have been shared with the team responsible for the home so they can be inspected and properly addressed. We appreciate you taking the time to walk through the specifics.
We'd love to host you again.
We were looking for a nice retreat to get away from the daily grind and have some peace and quiet but not be too far from shopping and dining. This ended up being exactly what we were hoping for and needed. The house was conveniently located and was clean and comfortable. The view was perfect as well.

We're also happy to know that you found the house clean, comfortable, and with a perfect view. We’d love to host you again in the future!
We really enjoyed our stay!! Three ample-sized bedrooms and two perfect bathrooms. Good sized kitchen with all that you need. We loved the views of the lake from the bedrooms and living room. VERY private area!!! Lots of room in the yard. The outside fire pit is gas I think? If the owners are open to suggestion, I'd suggest a fire pit.

Thank you, Sarah! We're glad you enjoyed your stay and appreciated the space, privacy, and beautiful lake views. We appreciate your suggestion about the fire pit and will keep it in mind for future improvements. We'd love to host you again!
Our family had a wonderful time at the property. It was very peaceful and serene. We love seeing all the deer especially the ones right outside the window drinking from the lake. We would definitely stay again or at another property from the same rental company. Thank you so much for making our family vacation a memorable one.
The place was beautiful. We loved the beach and the hot tub. Also can’t beat the view. Leaves were changing and was absolutely gorgeous. We had to contact them because a bear got into trash from previous guests and they sent someone quickly over. We took a trip to Jim Thorpe a half hour away and the town was really cute. We will definitely stay again

Thank you so much for sharing such a detailed review! We’re happy you enjoyed the cleanliness, aesthetic, lake views, hot tub, and the dog-friendly touches — and happy to hear communication was smooth throughout your stay.
Thank you as well for the helpful note about finding the house at night; we’ll work on making arrival directions clearer. We appreciate the feedback about the master bed, too, and will look into improving that.
It sounds like you got to explore the area and enjoy some great spots nearby! We’re happy you had a relaxing stay overall and would love to welcome you back again.
The property was pristine and the location perfect. I enjoyed a cup of coffee on the deck and while doing so watched a mother deer and her two babies drink from the lake. It was just perfect.
We truly enjoyed our stay. The home is pretty secluded (yet only 10-15 mins from grocery and outlet shopping), and has a magnificent view of the lake (as shown in the photos) from the main bedrooms, living space and from the hot tub. The home was very clean, the check-in and check-out process was simple and the rental agency responded immediately to any inquiries. The house could use more towels, bedding and blankets (not a big issue since there is a washer/dryer. We would consider renting this home again.
