Our group of 3 couples had a fun and relaxing New Year's Weekend. The hot tub was perfect. The neighborhood was calm and quiet - even considering the few fireworks at the stroke of midnight. The fireplace was super cozy. The place was clean and spacious and perfect for our group!

Our group of friends traveled to the area to visit Jim Thorpe. Even with a rain out all day Saturday we had a cozy weekend. Friday night by the fireplace & Saturday spent cooking, playing games, watching football.
Lovely home & enough room for 3 couples to relax for the weekend

The house was great, the property was perfect for kids. Having a backyard for kids to play in was what we were looking for. We would definitely stay again.

We had such a great experience at Stacy's home! If you have children and want to be close to amenities like the beach, pool, etc this is the spot! We will be coming back next year, Stacy was a wonderful host!

Stacy’s house was perfect for our family of four. Everything was very clean and the location was perfect for a quick walk to the lake and pool. Would definitely stay here again in future summers. Stacy was also very responsive to any questions we had.

We totally recommend this property! It was peaceful and beautiful! The deer are friendly. The deck was nice and relaxing to lounge on. The hot tub was great. A maintenance person for the hot tub came around during the one day. We received a warning from the host, Stacy, about this happening and she apologized for any inconvenience this could’ve caused (which it didn’t by the way). Stacy is very friendly and responds to messages quickly! The beds were firm and nice. Everything was clean. It took a bit to get the house cooled down when we arrived but we eventually got it comfortable. The bathrooms were nice and updated. It’s a bit of a windy trek to get to the trash disposal area, but that’s not a fault of the owner’s. Just putting that out there. The pool/ beach area was close and nice to hang out at.

My family of 4 and my parents had a lovely, low key Easter weekend here. The only bummer was that the tennis nets and other facility amenities weren’t open yet since it was early in the season.

Our family had a great time. The three bedrooms was great for the 4 of us. Stacy was great with communication and accommodating a Covid reschedule in December. We buoyed the hot tub and the various streaming services on the living room tv. We also enjoyed the close proximity to Jack Frost for skiing. A+

Nice property, all as advertised. Stacy was very responsive. Wooded neighborhood, very quiet overall, with mostly deer as neighbors. There was constuction going on next door, but there wasn't much noise, and it was not intrusive. Within easy reach of several state parks and less than an hour to Hawk Mountain. Comfortable beds and lots of ceiling fans. Keyless entry made access very easy. Back deck was very inviting.

Weekend getaway
It was the perfect location. The perfect place. Perfect weather. I could not have asked for a better weekend. The house was near all activities that you could want but still secluded. The house had everything we needed plus more. The host was in contact prior to check out multiple times. They supplied a binder of instructions as well as instructions for arriving and leavin! They even had a welcome basket waiting! Highly recommend!

My husband and 2 kids (9 and 6) stayed at Stacy’s house for a week in August. It rained quite a bit the week we were there, so we really appreciated how nice the home is inside! The beds are comfy and the kids loved the reclining couches for watching a rainy night movie! The home has a lot of really thoughtful touches like the wide variety of games, the hairdryers in the bathroom, and any type of kitchen utensil you might need. I also noticed there is a child gate in the closet for the steps. When the weather was nice we were able to enjoy the deck and watch the deer wandering through, and we were a quick walk or bike ride to the marina to fish or play basketball. The lake was unfortunately closed for swimming but Hickory Run State Park has a great beach 10 minutes away - we also enjoyed the trails there. The town of Jim Thorpe is 20 minutes away for a nice day trip. My only suggestions would be a grill replacement (a number of the nearby restaurants were closed so we cooked dinner almost every night) and a boot/shoe tray for next to the door. Overall, this is the nicest VRBO home we have rented to date - I am thinking about coming back during ski season! Thank you Stacy for a wonderful stay!!!

House was clean, comfortable, modern, and beautifully decorated. Location in Towamensing Trails community was perfect. Unfortunately the lake was closed to swimming by the Dept of Health when we visited, but that was beyond anyone's control. The community pool was close by and we visited often. The quiet streets in the community were perfect for evening walks and bike rides. Communication with Stacy was efficient and everything was perfectly organized. Highly recommend.

Fourth of July week!
The house is lovely and very clean! We had an issue with the hot tub, contacted Stacy and it was resolved that day! She was always very pleasant and extremely responsive.
There are a lot of deer around that will eat right out of your hand. The lake, beach and people were nice as well. It’s in a great location to many excursions.
The only downside was the beds. They weren’t very comfortable but nothing that 20 minutes in the hot tub can’t cure.
We highly recommend this house and look forward to visiting again.
