The location is perfectly situated between both ski resorts and close to the lake. We got a lot of snow while we were in town, but loved the warmth and cozy home! We enjoyed the fireplace and modern cabin feel of the house. We look forward to visiting again soon! ##### Cristine D. Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Dawn C.

The deck was a great place to relax or enjoy an early breakfast outside. We will absolutely stay here again. One note is the king bed listed is actually 2 separate mattresses that tended to leave a gap in the middle. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 8 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hope S.

Feb 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy cabin Our stay was great! Check in was easy and everything was clean. The only challenge was that the king bed is actually 2 beds pushed together and we felt it while sleeping. Even with that, the beds were comfy. Some type of mattress cover could probably rectify it. Wed absolutely choose this home again! ##### Dalesa R. Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kelly T.

We had trouble with the appliances though and the sign on the wall did not have accurate information available. Had to call the property manager to take of it which they did a few hours later.. ##### Mary S. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cindy F. Jul 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Biddle House Vacation We had a wonderful time staying at this property. The house was clean and updated and just what we needed for our week long vacation. If you are looking for a cozy home this is a great option. We hiked in the area- Shades of Death (not as horrible as it sounds), Bear Creek Trail, and Austin Blakeslee Natural Area. We took a train ride in Jim Thorpe, checked out the Francis E. Walter Dam, and shopped the Tannersville Outlets on a rainy day. This was a great home base. Lots of deer that come right through the yard and a great back deck to spend your time outside. Just a few things to note: There are two bathrooms but only one shower. The kitchen is small with a table that opens to fit four people. Plenty of outside seating though. Beds are comfortable. Host Company is very responsive. ##### Cindy F. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Priscilla Jun 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication This property looked just like the pictures. It was adorable, clean and very well kept. The beds were extremely comfortable. The master bedroom was downstairs but we stayed upstairs, the master bed is two mattresses put together and we didnt want that. The air conditioning/ heater is a split system so the heat was on downstairs and we couldn't figure out the air upstairs. Had we known that it would have helped. The description said washer/ dryer included. We could not find it and no one would give us a definitive answer when we emailed. The fireplace was filled with ash so we couldn't have a fire unless we took the time to clean it. However, the views and deck were absolutely beautiful. Place was spotless and very clean otherwise. Couch was comfortable. We couldn't get the wifi to work but someone did eventually come and help. We also could not figure out how to use the dishwasher. An instruction booklet or FYI for the house would have made the stay more enjoyable. We would absolutely go back, especially because we now know everything. The rest Nicks Lakehouse was cute. Great deck and outside bar. Food wasn't great but the ambiance was amazing. ##### Priscilla Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Shawn S.
