Poconos getaway

My family & I stayed here for a long weekend. The house was beautiful! It was very easy to get to, and there were good places to go hiking/nature walking nearby, which is what we were there for. The area was a little lacking in food options - seems like it was just a bunch of pizza places - but the house was lovely. It was easy getting in touch with the property manager, too. Would definitely recommend this home!

We had an amazing time in this place, the house is beautiful and super clean, half an hour from blue mountain resort so we were able to go and have fun there. At night we just sat down around the fire pit and enjoy the peaceful night. The house has everything you can ask for. We love it!

House is brand new with quite surroundings. It’s good place for whole family with pets; The host prepared a lot of stuff for guests to cook here, and the spa at back is fantastic for winter time. I would like to recommend my friends to stay here. The trash disposal site is a bit far and the bunk bed is too close to the fan, the kids are easily gets hurt if no one notice.

We stayed in this beautiful home for 4 nights. Every aspect of this home was up-to-date, clean, and comfortable! The towels, linens, and furniture were all wonderful; the kitchen fully stocked. The hot tub was easy to use and so relaxing after a fun-filled day of activities. The neighborhood was quiet; deer loved it.

Clean Big Mountain House

We enjoyed our stay a lot. The house is extremely clean and modern. Great communication with the property manager. Check in and out was very easy. The kitchen is very well stocked for cooking; however, there were scratches on all the cooking pans and they were in very bad condition. They should be replaced. Overall, our stay was great and will come back again.
