Pros:Great location to visit Jim Thorpe, hiking and wineries. Layout of house was nice with 3 floors to spread out. Loved the fireplace. Lighting was adequate. Pac-Man a plus. Also loved deck space.enjoyed watching the deer. Cons: house was dusty, windows dirty. Downstairs bathroom had no heat, too cold to use. None of the toilet seats fit properly. Master shower, faucet control loose and paint peeling off of wall. Couldn’t use towel bar, would fall on floor.Door was easy to unlock, hard to relock. Bed in one of downstairs bedrooms teetered if you sat on bottom. Okay if you were in middle. Air fresheners too strong upon arrival, we had to unplug them and put in a closet. ##### Kay H.

Price was great, so I expected some issues. House needs some TLC: -Main sofa was beat up. Wood used under seat cushions. Holes in upholstery. -Rugs in decent shape, not great. Some LVP would go a long way. - rampage arcade game didn’t work - downstairs beds were not comfortable -bunk beads had wood holding up the mattress Seems like a bunch on issues but the house was clean and bathrooms were spotless. For the price, I’d stay here again but a small investment in the property could force an increase in asking price. ##### Steve D. Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alison R.

This house was great! It as even better in person than it looked in the pictures. It was VERY clean. The house included all of the bed linens, towels, necessities (toilet paper, paper towels, cleaning products) etc. There were plenty of warm blankets, the bedding was fresh and clean, the pillows and mattresses were very comfortable too. Each bed had a welcome basket with fresh towels and soap! The game room was a BIG hit with our group of kids (ages 11 & 12)- they loved playing pool and foosball. One of the arcade machines would not power on, but there were 2, so it was fine. The entry level included 2 comfortable queen bedrooms, theater room, bathroom, game room w/ dry bar/TV and arcades. The 2nd level had a VERY spacious open living room/kitchen dining area with a nice deck, and another queen bedroom, bathroom and primary suite with a huge private bathroom. The 3rd loft level was HUGE, with 4 bunk beds, a futon and a little alcove with comfy chairs and fairy lights. The kids all stayed in the loft area and were VERY comfortable and had a blast! The adults stayed on the 2nd level and slept peacefully once the kiddos fell asleep (the Loft is over the primary suite, so there was some noise from above- but it was to be expected with tweens all bunking together for a fun night!). There was another slight glitch (other than one of the arcade machines not working)- the Remote Controls for the TV in the main room (2nd fl) did not work the Television. I reached out via text to the management company to troubleshoot, after 2 hours, it was suggested to download an "LG Remote Control" app on my phone, and that worked- however, it was slightly annoying to have to deal with ads when trying to change channels, control volume, etc. The kids planned a Movie Marathon and one of the reasons I chose this home was because of the game room and giant sectional for them all to gather and watch together- so thankfully after 2 hours of trying to get it to work, there was a solution. I would definitely rent this home again! I would recommend it to anyone looking to stay in this area. Because we stayed in early December- we were not able to take advantage of the lake, tennis courts, playground, etc. but we drove around the community and it looked lovely. So if you're thinking about renting this home- DON'T HESITATE- it was a really fantastic house! Perfect layout for a big family or multiple families to gather and enjoy the Poconos! ##### Adrienne L. Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Mitchell W. Nov 29, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Great for large family holidays The property is perfect for a family getaway, especially for an extended family with children. The young cousins can stay on the top floor bunkhouse, while the adults and teens entertain themselves on the lower two levels. The only drawback is an elderly person, or one with mobility issues has to get up a flight of stairs to get to the kitchen/dining/living room area. The top two floors are not handicap accessible. ##### Mitchell W.
