Lakefront Retreat Pocono

The second year we have stayed at this house. It is so peaceful and relaxing. The area is perfect for a little R&R from the daily grind where we live in NJ. We spent days fishing and boating on the lake. Nights were filled with BBQ and lakeside roasting marshmellows. The owners allow pets and our 2 dogs loved laying by the lake and taking walks on the country roads that wind thru the area.So happy we found this house last year and hope to return again and again

The only issue we found was that the outside porch could use some care, their were quite a few boards that needed to be replaced. The inside of the house was beautiful, clean, and up to date, though I will mention the beds were kind of hard, if this is something that would bother you bringing a mat or something would be helpful. The security staff of the community were extremely helpful. We had an incident where the people staying a few houses down set off fireworks late at night, an issue when we had both dogs and a infant in our party. The incident was handled in minutes, allowing both the baby and the dogs to go back to sleep. Overall we had a wonderful weekend away and would recommend this property to anyone looking for a great time away.

pros: We really overall liked the place. Used the beach, dock & most of the boats everyday. The house had a good layout with a good amount of room. There are many movies and games to play for the kids. The wifi and tv's work pretty well most of the time. We did talk with the owners on a couple items, they're very nice to deal with.The families thoughts were they'd come again.

cons: The place needs better caretakers as it wasn't as clean as it should be. BBQ required 45 mins of cleaning, the stove in the kitchen was in need of cleaning. The exterior of the building needs pressure washing. The deck needs to be rebuild as it's got a fair amount of rotting wood. The row boat wasn't usable, missing an oar lock, foosball table wasn't usable, missing a grip one one bar. The building could use air conditioning, very hot upstairs, our outside temperatures weren't that high. The exterior walkway should improved, it's very uneven.

We had a nice time at this house with our grandkids that were toddlers. We all enjoyed having the beach and water right in the back yard.

Plenty to explore in this area and even right at the property! Hosts are quick to respond if needed and this rental supplies all your needs to canoe, kayak, paddleboat, outdoor or indoor fires, horseshoes, tons of games, fully stocked kitchen, and lots of room. Beautiful views and deer visit frequently. Close to outlets, natural/environmental centers, water falls, hiking trails etc. Highly recommend.
