Cute house / Good location

We stayed here as a last minute get away vacation with our family. Quiet neighborhood with a lot of deer and rabbits who like to visit. This place was in a good central location which made it easy to get to everything we wanted to do. The host was very responsive and easygoing. We would stay here again.

Dirty is an understatement. They should have paid us to stay here! And have the nerve to charge 170 for a cleaning fee! Absurd. FREEZING COLD THROUGH OUT HOUSE. Dirty walls, appliances, cookware. The bottoms of our feet were black from walking bare foot. Drafts thru every window and door. Floor sticky from not being clean, this place needs serious updating.

Vacation in Poconos

We enjoyed our stay with friends in this clean convenient place. Additional attention to details on kitchen utensils - more spoons, pots with lids and recycle bins would make it easier. May be due to holiday weekend, previous garbage collection not done. But communication with host was great and the host will address these. Overall a great place to vacation - many nearby nature places, activities etc .

Right price right size

All is good. Price was right. Can't complain for what we paid. Some suggestions for host;..Fix the windowsRemove air conditioners in windowsClean loft space there were thousands of dead flys there we had to vacuumFix the heat and replace all the defective thermostats. They are all defective because the element inside degrades overtimeConceal and fix the broken and exposed junction boxes and switchesGet better sheets and pillowsFix weatherstripping in doorsFix the deck and structureIt's a really nice and big house but in a poor state and needs alot of repairs. Other than that the price is right and I can't complain. There are many good things. I am only pointing out what should be fixed in order for it to be a more premium rental. Hope this helps. Thank you

Had a great getaway

We are a group from Northern Virginia area and were looking for a family getaway in the woods. As it was a last minute plan we opted for poconos and visit Bushkill waterfalls. With vrbo as our first destination for booking vacation homes, we selected this house for our getaway primarily looking at the pictures. When we reached the home, we collectively felt this house had lot more to offer than shown in the pictures. Checkin process was easy. Christian has been communicating with me on vrbo messenger since I completed booking. All instructions were thorough and we had everything in place by the time we reached. The house has several rooms and can easily accommodate upto 15 people. We were a party of 6 and enjoyed the yard, grill, brought some wood from nearby Walmart and enjoyed fire outside in the chilly nights. The house was spacious and very convenient with gas stations, coffee shops and stores at a reasonable distance. Overall we spent great time together in this vacation home and certainly looking forward to stay here again during our future visits to the poconos.

Kalahari visit

My family and I visited this home to go to the Kalahari Waterpark. It was less than a 10 min drive to the park. There was plenty of room for everyone. We grilled out and made use of the nice kitchen. My daughter had a blast playing air hockey with everyone. We would definitely stay here again.

Very Clean!

We stayed with our family of all ages and had a lovely time. The place was very clean and plenty of sleeping availability. The air hockey table was enjoyed by all! We also enjoyed the outdoor fire pit can and grilled dinner. Kalahari was just a 5 min drive. Other day trips were aprox 30 min drive so close enough. Note to customers there is no access to TV, but large screen for hookup to your Netflix, YouTube , etc accounts. The internet connection was down when we arrived but property owner was very helpful and responded right away. Matter was fixed within a short time. Would definitely book again next time we’re in the area. Thank you
