Local ordnance limits 6 cars in driveway - guard house literally turned guest away at 10pm. Property manager suggested parking car overnight at a Wawa 15 minutes away - wrong answer. After paying 90% and two days prior to arrival, I was told about 6 cars in the driveway but not told guests would be turned away. With guests coming from NJ, CT, NH and OH it makes it difficult to carpool. Pictures of listing are several years old. Replace the broken plastic adirondack chairs, replace the grates on the grill, and when paying >$1000/night, I don't expect door handles to fall off in my hand. Very obvious the property manages does not visit the property very often. Poconos has turned into an escape for those in Philly, and who could blame them? Spend a little more time behind the wheel and head to the Finger Lakes or Chesapeake Bay. I wouldn't recommend Atlantic City for a Jersey Shore vacation would be the best comparison I can provide.

Large house right on a small lake in a gated community. Community offers tennis, pickleball, volleyball and basketball courts as well as 2 swimming pools and a small beach with lake swimming. House was well appointed with very comfy beds and so much space. Our family of 10 fit perfectly with room for more. Loved the outdoor space. So many restaurant and shopping options 15 minutes away.

My husband and I had a great time enjoying this property! The house amenities were exactly as advertised, property was clean and welcoming, and essentials were provided. The property manager was extremely responsive to any questions. Overall, a great, relaxing stay and would book again!

The property is beautiful, with all the comforts of home. We had a relaxing time, and the owner is genuinely helpful and wants you to enjoy your stay. We had a rocky start with getting into the community, as the gate guards are awful and rude, so be sure to confirm with the owner that your information is with the guards under the correct property address before you arrive!

Overall, the property was as described in the listing. There was plenty of room for our group of 8 adults. The kitchen was well supplied and had everything we needed. It rained for the whole time we were there so unfortunately, we didn’t get to enjoy the fire pit or lake. Our only complaints were that the shower in the upstairs bathroom didn’t drain well so there was standing water up to your ankles and the basement rooms were a bit musty smelling.

Wonderful home for a large family gathering. Beautiful views and well maintained home. Owner was very accessible and helpful. Would definitely stay again.

Kid enjoyed time on hammocks, paddling the kayaks, and playing foozeball. Also enjoyed the Penn Estates game room. Everyone enjoyed the hot tub. The house is on a small pond, not good for swimming but good for kayaking. There is a lake for swimming a short drive or walk away.
The house is pleasent and clean but could use some maintence - for example, the outdoor picnic table has a rotten spot, and the lights in the living room flickered, indicating a possible electrical issue.

Great location, lots to do! Owner was extremely responsive and helpful. We had infants through grandparents and we all enjoyed ourselves.

We had a great stay at Nick's property. Everything was as advertised, with even more space than we imagined. Nick was incredibly communicative and helpful throughout the stays with a few questions about the property, and even brought extra paper products to us during our stay. Would highly recommend!

Our family had a wonderful time! The location is very peaceful. The house is quite comfortable and beautiful. Lots of places to hike and enjoy nature. Highly recommend!

The house is amazing, the owner was extremely helpful, and the yard and pond access was great. A little difficult getting into the community, but nothing too bad.

Our family really enjoyed staying for a long weekend at this lovely property. It is indeed peaceful and is in a beautiful setting.

Nick was excellent as an owner and communicated very well throughout the entire process. The space suited our holiday gathering with three families, including 5 teenage boys. Some glitches took away from the experience like the hot tub not fully heating (they quickly tried to fix), need for a few more kitchen items for larger dinners, and I recommend it should be mentioned the fireplace inside, seen in the photos, doesn't work (may just be a safety concern which I respect, but should be mentioned). Still, Nick deserves 5 stars for his responsiveness and we would stay here again.

We had a wonderful stay at Nick's home! The house was accurate to the listing and provided my group with lots of space and entertainment to make our stay very comfortable and fun! We especially enjoyed the hot tub, game room, and being able to gather all together in the spacious living room & kitchen. I really appreciated Nick's responsiveness to any questions I had. I would definitely stay here again!

Great House! Pictures are accurate. Lots to do in the house for a family with pre teens and teens between karaoke, game room with ping ping, basketball & pac man arcade. Loved having a cup of coffee in the morning and being able to see the lake from the living room . There is also a jacuzzi and fire pit. Linens and towels are provided which make it even easier for a relaxing stay. Owner was very responsive with any questions. Definitely a great spot.

The house & property were perfect for my family of 9. We enjoyed EVERY element of it. Some nice fish were caught & released. Tons of animals entertained us nature lovers and we were even graced with a bald eagle for 10 minutes , sitting regally on a large branch, his flight captured on video! We used the great fire pit nightly, and the hot tub was super! The kitchen was large & enabled all to gather round at the same time. The game room entertained us for hours as the kids made up tournaments. We played cards at the fabulous poker table every night! The beds were super comfy and the hosts were so accommodating.
(When I asked Nick if there happened to be a hand mixer there or should I bring mine, one from Amazon awaited us when we arrived!
Thank you Nick & Laura An A+ place!

This was one of the best VRBO houses I’ve ever stayed in. The house is beautiful, immaculate, and surrounded by woods and on a small lake. Truly everything as advertised or better!

Really had a great time. It was a getaway for my college age kids to relax and hang out with family before going back to school. Upon arrival it was rainy. Not an issue. Played ping pong, arcade basketball, Pac-Man, etc. The rest of the week, the weather was awesome. Kayaking, using the outside hot tub, grilling was great. Outlet shopping was close by. Deer walking around were all so docile and cute. A few hiccups but Nick was sooo quick to respond. Super great host.

The property was perfect for our family. Lots of room. Great lake behind the house for kayaking (boats provided!) and fishing (boys caught several!!). Appreciated that our pups could join us on vacation. Online pics accurately represent the property. Owner also surprised us with new outdoor hot tub which was enjoyed by all!

Everything about our stay here was perfect! The house was very clean and nicely decorated. The beds were also very comfortable. It was a great way to unwind with the lakefront view, some fishing, kayaking, swimming, listening to music around the fire, and getting in touch with nature. Ultimately this vacation was very smooth because of the communication with Nick who told us everything we needed to know and responded to every question quickly. We would definitely stay here again!

Property was just as described. Everything in order and host was very responsive. We had a group of 10, 6 adults and 4 children 8, and under. Coffee down by the lake was a wonderful start to the day. Everyone enjoyed the hot tub. Karaoke with the kids was a real hit. Game room was a bonus during downtime with the kids. Kayaking on the lake was a highlight, as some ventured out for the first time!
Penn Estates is a great location, as we all enjoyed both the pool and the lake. One of our best days was spent relaxing by the lake, meeting new friends, floating in our tubes and playing in the sand.. Bonus day was a tie dye party at the pool location, all for free. We got to make shirts for the whole family to take home with us!
Nearby we all enjoyed Camelbeach water park, Bushkill Falls and Quiet Valley Historical Farm.
The entire week was a perfect mix of activity and simple relaxation. All in all, it was a great experience! Highly recommend!!

We loved our stay here. Lake front location and access to the 3 kayaks were amazing House was beautiful with comfortable beds, plenty of entertainment for teens, and very spacious. Community amenities were very good. Nick was terrific with all communications and answering any questions right away. He was easy to work with throughout the entire rental process. Wonderful family getaway!

Overall a great week!
We had a lovely home on the lake for a week and many family memories were made. Accommodations were nice but one shower was not in order which was a minor setback. We had a full house and definitely needed that extra shower.

Nice lakefront spot
We stayed here with two adults and ten teenage boys from 13-19 in the summer. Overall, very happy with it.
- Host was communicative and helpful.
- House was spacious and well-stocked with entertainment options: games, hot tub, boats
- Outdoor space was very nice: large deck, lots of seating
- Outdoor string lights had a nice effect at night
- Lots of lake-front access for fishing and boating
- Lake is on the small side
- Gated community required a visit request for every person, which was a bit annoying and didn't work perfectly

Great winter getaway
The property was well maintained and fit our group of 6 adults and 10 kids perfectly! Location was close to 2 ski resorts for skiing, tubing, and snowboarding. Owners were helpful and responsive.
