New Year's Weekend 2011

I would highly recommend this clean and cozy house. The property is exactly as advertised and maybe even a little nicer.
The owner, Sean, is sincerely interested in making sure you have a nice stay. He was very helpful in learning about the area, left us a complimentary bottle of wine, and was kind and forgiving when we broke a glass.
The location is terrific. It's such a short drive to skiing at Big Boulder; it feels like it's practically around the corner. The skiing there isn't amazing if you're used to the Western U.S., but as a spot as close as the Poconos, it's a lot of fun. All the groceries you could need are not far away either. There are plenty of other activities also nearby though we pretty much occupied ourselves with hiking, skiing, and cooking.
We chose this place over others partly because it was significantly cheaper, but it turned out to be even nicer than the others! We definitely hope to come back.

Owner's Response: Thank you for your kind words Kathryn. I appreciate your thoughts about our place and your stay. You left our place in great condition and are welcome back anytime. We are continually upgrading our house so our guest have an enjoyable stay like you did. The wine we left actually came from a local vineyard in Saylorsburg (about 20 min away) where my wife and I actually got married in October 2007.
Regards, Sean
