Guest Experiences

George and Sarah were thoughtful and attentive hosts. Their place was an absolute dream for a large family retreat! While we spent majority of our long weekend living outside on their property, there was also plenty to do inside. I loved how the family-friendly atmosphere encouraged quality time together and kept us safe and functioning amongst the luxury! The lake was peaceful and therapeutic, offering gorgeous views at any angle. I’m now spoiled, having had my hot chocolate on that magnificent deck with deer in company!

This truly was a wonderful family vacation for my family...wonderful lake, beautiful back yard oasis for children and adults of all ages.... this was a pure genius set up for our family. We have made several family vacations to the Pocono Mountains, but never with such amenities inside and out.. a fully stocked kitchen with almost everything you can think of. The coffee bar was amazing.. pots and pans silverware dishes to accommodate our big family was incredible. Extra blankets and pillows galore.. the theater room. It was all a wonderful experience.. we did not need to go to restaurants or leave the house for anything but to go see the beautiful waterfalls at one of the parks... this home has something for everyone... thank you for making our stay a memorable time

We were floored by George and Sarah’s house. STUNNING. The views of the lake were unmatched. The house has everything you need! Great for large families or groups of friends, or anyone, really! We had a few little ones and they had a lot of very helpful things for us-kids plates and utensils, a play grill, a play campfire set, the movie theater, arcade games, etc! A couple in my group took the paddle boat out to the little island, while others enjoyed a day bonfire! We also thoroughly enjoyed the size of the kitchen-excellent to cook big meals for the group. We will be coming back to this same house we enjoyed it so much! Thank you for some much needed relaxation and for all of the communication!

We stayed here with twelve people for the week and had wonderful time. The home is just how it looks in the photos. The area is peaceful and quiet. This is our second rental around this particular lake, and we would happily book this home again in the future. The hosts were quick to respond to our questions and were very quick to address any concerns we had.

To be totally transparent, the images for the space listed does it no justice. The house was so beautiful and accommodated my big family of 17. The teens loved that they had their own space and the adults loved that although we were all in the same house, we didn’t hear the teens or barely saw them. That’s how big the house is! You’re surrounded by a beautiful scenery and if you’re lucky enough, you’ll spot a few deers walking around. I can only imagine how beautiful this place is in the summer. We are already discussing coming back for the summer. Thank you so much for everything George and Sarah!

We had a fantastic stay! This Airbnb was perfect for families with kids — plenty of space to play, kid-friendly amenities, and a safe, welcoming environment. It truly felt like a home away from home. It was also an ideal weekend getaway spot — peaceful, cozy, and just what we needed to relax and recharge. We couldn’t have asked for a better place. Highly recommend for anyone traveling with children or just looking for a quick escape!

We recently stayed at this amazing lakefront chalet with our friends - we are a group of 4 families with toddlers. George and Sarah were exceptional hosts—super helpful and responsive, making our stay smooth and memorable. The house is exactly as pictured, if not better, with ample space and plenty of activities to keep everyone entertained. Their proactive approach to addressing any questions was impressive. We had such a wonderful time -hope to return for an even longer stay. Highly recommend!
