This is a lovely property. The game room is fun, although we didn't use it as much as we thought we would. Fenced property is great for dogs. I think it would have felt more pet friendly if the host had provided the sheets to cover the couch as requested, and if the bedding didn't also have to be covered. There was also a request to vacuum up the dog hair at the end of the stay. Communication with the host was excellent. The appliances weren't very new, so we did have some issues that he addressed promptly. Some things were a bit limited, like only 1 dish towel, very few dishwasher pods for the capacity of the house. Trash has to be hauled quite a distance away.I can't speak to the amenities because it was late September, so we didn't utilize the beach or the pool. All in all a very fun stay in PA. Weather was lovely, house was ideally situated for my purpose and had plenty of room for my guests.

I'd really go to 4.5. The only issue is the very loud air conditioners, and the difficulty getting the lower bedroom to a dry comfortable temperature.The house is as advertised. Linens and towels included and ready to use. Clean and comfortable. Unfortunately due to a personal emergency we couldn't bring our dog but I'm sure he would've loved the yard. The game room in the basement was awesome for us and our 2 adult kids. The lake beach is beautiful and the pool looked nice though we didn't get to use it. Only downside is be prepared to drive for almost anything like restaurants. But we found good ones within 15 minutes!!

Nice house

We had a good stay. Only problem was an uncomfortable bed and couch. The kitchen was nicely stocked and the yard was great for our dogs. We did have to wait until the dishwasher was done and all dishes put away per rules so we were delayed leaving. Please note that you will have to wear a bracelet to use pool, beach and garbage drop off

Perfect Weekend Getaway

This stay was a perfect weekend getaway. My friends and I wanted to have a weekend away with the pups and this was a great place. Huge yard for the dogs, basement was an arcade with all games, and the living room was perfect for lounging and watching tv. The kitchen was a great size for cooking. The only complaint we had is that the kitchen supplies need to be upgrade. But all in all, would 100% stay here again.

Aria’s 10th birthday celebration ❤️🎉

We rented this amazing house for our daughter’s 10th birthday. We had 6 of her girlfriends, 1 their moms and myself and my husband and our 3 small dogs. The house had amazing space! The cleanliness was great! This is my 1st rental from VRBO. I used the other app for yearss and I would have to clean the house before actually enjoying it. However, w this house; I only did a quick wipe down (just because I like to do my own cleaning) but it wasn’t “necessary “. The kids loved the game rooms. The backyard was nice and very secured for our 3 furry babies. My family loved the house and the yard. The only CON was the mattress on the main floor needs to be replaced. When mentioning this to the host, he acknowledged my concern and spoke of a remedy. The other bed and bunk beds were good. Great stay!😊
