About this house rental
ABOUT THE SPACE
Step into the grand entrance of the Chalet on the Lake and you’ll see it was designed for large and intimate family gatherings. The entry leads into the open room with fully stocked chef's dream kitchen with Viking Stove, Granite countertops, plenty of dishes, bakeware, serving bowels, prep ware and much much more. The bar stools at the large kitchen island and expansive seating in the living room and at the dining room table make this room essential for gathering. Prepare family meals and dine inside or travel down the hallway past the main floor bathroom and TWO more living rooms to the main deck and you'll see our best feature. The expansive views of Lake Wallenpaupack and more outdoor tables and chairs await you. Cook outside on the large propane Weber BBQ grill and enjoy beautiful sunsets from the deck or meander down the grassy yard to the lakefront and enjoy a night at the firepit overlooking the water.
Back inside two staircases lead you upstairs to the three ensuite bedrooms and more sleeping spaces.

This property was beautiful. The location on the lake was great with beautiful sunsets. We were 3 separate families so having the 3 Master Suites was perfect for us. My only suggestion would be turning either the sewing room or office or both into a bunk room for the kids to sleep in so they can be together. They all slept on separate couches. That was the only thing I didn't care for but they are kids and didn't complain. I loved the spaciousness of the living room spaces so everyone could be together or take a breather if needed. The Viking stove was a nice treat. Dining room table comfortably sat all 10 of us. The island had stools for 3 people. The kitchen is equipped with anything and everything you need to eat, drink, cook and serve while staying there, The views of the lake were amazing. the dock was perfect for the boat that we rented. Outdoor grill was clean and worked perfect. Outdoor seating was comfortable and more than enough for our group. There are kayaks with paddles and life jackets for your use. Firepit is down by the lake with adirondack chairs for your use. Cindy is wonderful to work with and is very accommodating. I would highly recommend this property. We are trying to figure out the dates fir our next trip.

We had a great time cooking, hanging out at the dock, making campfires, and playing board games at this wonderful spacious house. It has plenty of room for family gatherings, yet areas you can go when private time is desired. Everything is suppplied for a memorable family vacation.

The house was nice and it was clean. Felt very comfortable of it's location. The dock needs a bit of work and some more cleats on the dock. We hooked a boat and 6 jet skis up to it but we had to tie jet skis together to make it work. The house had pretty much everything you need except towels, wash cloths, and blankets.
Nothing to do with the house or property manager but if you are leaving a boat or jet skis tied up, this is important! Even though signs are out saying No Wake, 9 out of 10 boats that went by the dock were doing 30-40 miles per hour. The boat and jet skis were knocking the whole time. We ended up pulling them out of the water because it was so bad. More signs need to be put up and some police presence.

The property was wonderful and perfectly suited for a party of 8-10. We all had ample room to be together or in our own space, if desired. The home offered many amenities that suited our visit. The lake access was fantastic as we both had a boat of our own and also rented a pontoon. We would most definitely consider returning to this home so perfectly located on the lake.

This property was exactly as described, and perfect for 10 people. There is so much room in the house that everybody had their own personal space to retreat to if they wanted. The kitchen was awesome and well stocked, and there was plenty of room in the dining area to seat 10 people for dinners. We didn’t have the greatest of weather but we did enjoy 2 full days on the dock, swimming and kayaking. We would definitely consider coming back to this house again!

Semi modern kitchen and baths , well kept and fully functional. Adequate outside seating but would have loved addition seating at dock area.

The pictures did not do the house justice. There is so much space which made it nice to spread out a bit. The upstairs bedrooms are very spacious and the master has an amazing view of the lake. We spent a lot of time on the deck and playing yard games. Kitchen had everything we needed. We rented a boat one day and the slip was very easy to get in and out. Highly recommend!

Absolute wonderful stay! Everything was as described and evven better! We had a great weekend at the house and would love to come back!
The only issue we had were with the lake itself.
1. The area between the docks and the island should be "No Wake" but was not. There was A LOT of boat traffic as it was Memorial Day weekend and our boats got a little banged up on the dock. Not anything against the property itself, but this area was heavily trafficked.
2. We didn't see a single Police Boat and many of the boaters/jetskiers were driving dangerously.
It could have just been a very busy, beatiful Memorial Day weekend, but other than those issues, the Property is Hands Down Amazing!
I'd recommend it in a heartbeat, and already have!

Very spacious home with lots of room for everyone to spread out.
Overall it's a bit dated but works fine as a lake home. It was definitely originally built with specific needs and desires in mind for a family and that translates well as a rental. I definitely recommend this home for an experience at this lake. The property manager was excellent and very responsive throughout the reservation process and the rental!

spacious
There were 10 of us by the middle of the week. I had a daughter come alone so the bedroom with single bed was perfect. The pullout was a bit iffy but it was for an 11 and 12 year old so they just slept on the floor. Kids don't care they had fun. The 3 ensuites were perfect for our 3 different families. Three large living rooms were great allowing our family different activites, watching TV, Excercising, and playing guitar. Located about in middle of lake, watched eagles on island across from us. This lake was very busy on weekend but during the week it was fine. Highly recommend.

Family Time
Unique is the first word that comes to mind. Always something interesting to find in each room. We had 9 adults and 1 child and there was more than enough room. We all had our own space if we wanted or gathered in one of the living rooms. Kitchen was beautiful and lots of room to cook. Beautiful watching the water from the fire pit at night. My husband

Great long weekend
Had the pleasure of staying in this house for a long weekend. We found it immaculately clean upon our arrival. The walk down to the lake is one of the best we've had. Amazing sunsets and plenty of space for indoor and outdoor fun. Would definitely stay again!!!

Best House
This house was great. The living space is enormous. Kitchen was beautiful and fully updated. The deck is huge. The outdoor space was what made it great. Gentle slope of grass right down to the lake. Plenty of room for our wiffle ball games, a bouncy house and whatever else you want. Great dock kids loved jumping off and swimming and room for two pontoon boats. Used the fire pit right down by the water every night. Kids ate lots of smores. Cindy was very easy to work with and very helpful. A fantastic vacation.

Spacious lakefront home
The house was very clean and spacious. Had plenty of room for us all. Huge kitchen and dining areas along with 3 large bedroom suites. Beautiful views of the lake from the property.
Only negatives were how close and fast boats were able to go by the dock, it’s super busy location. Also, the Steps down to the dock need work. Made it difficult for elderly person to get down to the dock/boat. Otherwise a very nice home!

Nice but ...
House was enormous, there were six of us and we had plenty of room and never felt crowded. Some of the furniture and Tv's are outdated. The jetted tub in 2 of the bathrooms did not work. The one in the bedroom with the King bed has been broke since 9/2017. We did not find a fire pit/ring outside. We brought firewood to have a nice fire and there was no ring. There are no real set of knives, just a bunch of different sizes in a drawer. Toilets did not flush properly. A lot of "do's and don'ts" that you don't find out until you're already booked and paid in full. Overall the house was nice but for what we paid it could have been a lot nicer.

Perfect Weekend Getaway
House is better from what you see in the pics. Beautiful place in very single way. Lot of character. We were three families and we didn’t get on our way inside the house because each of us had our own “me time” with all the rooms the house have. Love the fact every bedroom has its own bathroom. The outside was amazing! Right there on the lake and at nights we all sat by the fire and was amazing! We saw shooting stars every day and that made our nights. Store is relatively close and is easy access. Really great time we spent together and we will do it again ! Thank you for everything.
The parking area is a little confusing since there’s a house next to it and the guest in there keep passing right in the middle of two of our cars which were literally parking on where we supposed to (driveway) but I guess they didn’t know the street was on the other side and every time they go out we were wondering why they keep squeezing their cars to pass by in between ours but that wasn’t an impediment to enjoy our stay.

Great Spot
The property is clean and has a great layout for entertaining. There were six of us and we never felt crowded. Two of our friends are great cooks and they loved the Viking range. The bed pillows were so comfortable I wrote down the brand name and will be ordering some. I will book this place again next fall.

Just finished up our week at the Griffin House. This home is huge! 5bdrm’s!! Check-in was super easy, Cindy sent a welcome guide with all the details of the home. The location is awesome, we brought a boat and 2 jetski’s with us, 2 large dock floats, and there was plenty of room. A few things that would have made the week better:*A ladder into the lake attached to dock for swimming*Chairs down by the lake/ firepit* a jetski drive-up ramp * fixing the bottom step leading to lake. It was dangerous, especially carrying a toddler. *A game room, the home has 3 living rooms, it would have been awesome to have a pool table or ping pong table with some other games.

Family getaway
We brought our own boat and water toys, so we were self contained for accommodations and recreation, which was perfect during the Covid restrictions.
