The views from the property are wonderful. You are at the end of the lake, so not much "water traffic". My kids and I enjoyed swimming and fishing from the dock. There were plenty of outdoor seats. There were kayaks and a water mat provided as described- which was fun! The bathrooms were nice and updated. Nice driveway off the main road. I am nervous to be honest about the "cons", but here we go. I did express these concerns to the property manager as the week went on. The property manager was responsive, but not much can be done about these in short notice. The downstairs basement smelled VERY strongly of mildew upon arrival. I had a headache within minutes. I was advised to turn on the dehumidifiers, which helped after a few hours. We've been staying in lake homes for over a decade, none have been like that. I bought febreze and carpet powder to help. The couch downstairs is broken (I saw this mentioned couple years ago in a review, couch should be removed). The one air conditioner is not enough for the whole house. Granted, we went on probably the hottest week of the summer- but the middle level bedrooms were 76* (we had a thermostat) and too hot. There were fans provided thankfully, but another A/C would be useful on those hot weeks. :) Beds could use padding, unless you like very firm (I had a pad!). Thank you for having us.

House was filthy and cluttered. Could not open doors or windows missing or broken screens. Bug infested. We left early as it was unlivable. Would not have Ben use the dishes. Used paper plates we bought the whole time. House is nit what the listing shows. Never had a problem wit VRBO but this was an AWFUL experience. Would suggest you not list this for others as is

This home is in a great location on a lake with a beautiful view. The house is large and has the bones to be a great stay BUT.....we came as a group of ten. There is supposed to be enough supplies for 10 people to stay! We came for Thanksgiving, it was cold and there were not enough blankets for every bed! How is that okay? The sofa bed was broken and the mattresses in half of the rooms were uncomfortable with barely enough cushion to cover the springs. The dining room chairs were broken and extremely uncomfortable. Overall the house just needed some attention. I could go on but we enjoyed ourselves and made do. The location was great which was the biggest redeeming factor. The owners need to put some thought into the basic necessities of the home and could make their place a fabulous place to spend the holidays.

We had a wonderful time. The property, the view, the area....all beautiful. Great hiking. We loved the fire pit at the water. We used it every night. We were able to get out on the water in the kayaks. You can't beat October in the Poconos.
