Great vacation house and area.

Review Submitted: July 2, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2008
Thanks so much for all your help. We had a wonderful time in the Poconos. The house was wonderful and like I said on the phone, it felt like home. We especially liked the two separate areas for entertaining. The kids were in one area and the adults in another. My mother wants to know where you bought the mattress in the downstairs bedroom because she never slept so sound. We will be in touch for next year - thanks again.
Owner's Response: Thank you for your kind words. We are so glad you and your family had a nice time at our house and look forward to hearing from you in the future.

Hello Lucinda and Kevin

We had a great time on our family vacation in the moutains. Our family had never been there in the fall before and what a treat we got. The leaves were beautiful and the weather was perfect. We were surprised at all the activities in the area. Our family went horseback riding, visited the outlet, and on our way out, went four-wheel riding through the mountains. We had so much fun. Also want to say thank you for the great accommodations. The house was perfect and really clean. I felt like I was in the mountains staying at your house. It had a rustic feel to it and the fireplace was nice in the evenings to sit around and make smores. Thank you again for making our vacation so easy and fun!

Beautiful mountain getaway!

We went to the Poconos with another family and had a great time. It started to snow the second day which was wonderful. The kids went sledding at the sledding hill and the skiing was so much fun! This was our first time in the mountains - we are now coming back to your house each year. It was perfect for our group and you have been very accommodating. We used the activity book at the house each day which helped us find locations of restaurants and things to do - it was great. We especially loved the fireplace in the family room. We had to going each night after skiing - it made the room so cozy.
Thanks again Lucinda and we will see you again next year!

Hi Lucinda
We had a great time in the Poconos. The weather was perfect and the house was soooo comfortable. The kids cried when it was time to leave - they didnt want to leave the deer that came to visit each day. Thanks again and we will be back in the winter to go skiing!!

Warm Regards Lauren

Summer Pocono Rental

Review Submitted: August 11, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
Hi Lucinda, We had a wonderful time. The weather was nice and the evenings were cool. Thanks again, the house exceeded our expectations and the area was full of things to do for all ages. We have 4 children (1boy and 3 girls) from 16 to 6 so we had to try to make everyone happy. I think we succeeded.................they had a great time. We are already checking our calendar for a winter visit. Any suggestions for choosing a good time to visit? I am putting keys in the mail today. Thanks, Connie
Owner's Response: Hello Connie
I'm so glad you and your family had a great time at our home. The Pocono Mountains really has a lot to offer for all ages. I have older children and they love going to the mountains - theres always something to do, but more importantly, its great family time. We look forward to hearing from you again in the future.

Lucinda, What can I say - we had a wonderful time. It was so peaceful - the area is great - the kids loved it. They didn't want to come home. The home is just so perfect. WE absolutely loved it. We are already talking about next year. The kids loved the deer and got so very excited when they came up. My daughter got some wonderful pictures. It was everything I knew it would be. Again, thank you so much for sharing your place with us.
Owner's Response: Thank you for renting with us and we are thrilled that you and your family had a nice time. We love the peacefulness the Pocono Mountains provide from our busy lives. The deer in this area just love being around people. We have the same deer come to our door each day - its really wonderful. We look forward to hearing from you again in the future.

Hello Lucinda

Thank you so much for your hospitality. We had a great time skiing with the family. I forgot how beautiful the area is and it was nice being back. Your place is beautiful and well taking care of. We will see you again next season.
Warm regards,

Wow - what a great place. My family and I had a wonderful time at your pocono retreat. The house was perfect and we were amazed at how clean and organized you have made your home. Other homes we have rented in the past did not come close to the way you keep the house. We felt very comfortable there and for that I thank you.

Another nice amenity about your home is the skiing resort is so close. We would ski in the morning, come home and have lunch in front of the fire, then go back in the late afternoon - that was great!

Thanks for all the help you provided with attractions and information regarding to the area - it came in handy.
See you next year Lucinda.
