Wonderful Trip

For 4th of July, it was very peaceful. Clean and very spacious with a great pool. Only downside is the centralized air is set so if you’re naturally hot in any of the bedrooms, a fan or colder air is needed. However, overall everyone and my dog enjoyed this escape.

Nice Getaway Home

Overall, we were happy with our stay. The only negative is that there is no washer and drier available. Our pool towels needed to be washed after getting wet. Other than that, the house was well equipped and it was a nice time away.

Nice Place

Overall nice and clean. Two bedrooms and two full bathrooms on the first floor and two bedrooms on the second floor which is an attic style with sloped ceiling. Nether bathroom is connected to a master bedroom. The pool is not heated and even in the summer was too cold to use. Only the right side of the house shown in the picture is the rental the left side was locked and not part of the rentable space.

Great getaway from the noise every day city life can bring. Quiet and peaceful neighborhood not too far from activities in the Poconos.
