About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Contemporary Escape ⭐️ Hot Tub ⭐️ Karaoke ⭐️ Gaming ⭐️ Fire Pit ⭐️ Lake Access

Let's start at the front of the house. Driveway can fit 4 vehicles easily.

As we get to the front door, guests will let themselves in by punching in the 4 digit code they personally chose for the smart lock.

Entering the home, directly in front of you is stairs leading to the 2nd floor and to your right is the 1st Floor and living. Let's take a tour of the 1st floor. You will be greeted by a very spacious living room with comfortable seating, sofa bed and Large Roku Smart TV above the electric fireplace. The living room is an open space concept where you can see the kitchen from the living room.

To the left of the fireplace we have a stand that has board games and playing cards to play on the dining table which is right next to it. The kitchen is fully equipped with all the essentials to cook with including seasoning. We provide K-Cups of Coffee, decaf and tea also. We do not provide any liquid creamers since we don't want guests sharing that. We do provide Splenda and Cane Sugar packets. By the dining table we have sliding doors which will lead you to the backyard that has a full patio deck, BBQ grill and outdoor seating. We also have have a fire pit in the backyard with seating.

Going back inside past the kitchen in the hallway, first door to your right is the 1st floor full bathroom with an LED mirror so it can be easy on your eyes in case you have to use it in the middle of the night. Across from the bathroom is the 1st Floor bedroom which has a Queen size memory foam mattress, Smart TV, thermostat, A.C. unit and ceiling fan.

Making our way up the stairs, to your right we have a dedicated space for gaming. We have 2 arcade 1up machines, another sofa bed and a fooseball table for endless fun.

Walking past the gaming space by the hallway is the second floor full bathroom set up in a modern style the same way the 1st floor full bathroom is set up. On the second floor we have two more bedrooms. Both bedrooms upstairs also have a queen sized memory foam mattress, Smart TV, thermostat, air conditioning unit and ceiling fan.

Let's make our way outside to the backyard. On the deck, we have a propane, barbecue grill with outdoor dining table and chairs, and from the deck you can access our hot tub. We also have a woodburning fire pit with seating in the backyard for our guests.

You will have free access to Dresser Lake in the community. There is also a nice lake beach in Tobyhanna State Park which is also free access and they have canoe and rowboat rentals. You can also bring your own kayak if you prefer.

If you made it this far in the description, I just want to thank you for taking time out of your day to view and show interest in my property and would like you to know that if or when booking with me, you will get a host who cares about the guest's experience. I aim to provide 5 star hospitality to receive a 5 star review in return. Thank you in advance :)

Ok stay but great communication
The house overall was smaller than we thought but clean and cozy. The karaoke was a plus we had fun with it. The only problem we had was the grill not working and even with the property manager coming to change out the tank, the grill did not work and it was a bummer bc we bought so much meat to grill and the whole purpose of our trip was to grill and have fun so that kinda ruined our trip. Hussein responded very quickly but it did not solve our problem. We used the grill for 5 min and it sounded like the gas was leaking so we couldn’t grill the rest of the night. Overall, had the grill worked, we would’ve enjoyed the place more but because grilling was a big part of our trip, I don’t think I would stay here again

My family and I had a wonderful time. The description of the property was extremely accurate. I have stayed in several VRBO houses and this was definitely one of the cleanest houses I have rented.

Delivered on all its promises
The property was truly as listed. Near, clean and nicely set up. The host was thoughtful with the ensuring all the standard necessities were available. AC worked very well! Kitchen had plenty of utensils and tools. The hot tub was amazing! Very clean and new. Our group was 8 adults and a small dog and we were all very comfy. Would definitely visit again and appreciate the host checking in to ensure we were all good We saw deers and bears and really enjoyed the atmosphere overall

Needs improvements
If possible, I would have included photos with this review to highlight the issues we encountered upon arrival. Within the first few minutes, we noticed several concerning problems and contacted the host. There is a hole in the bathroom, and one of the rooms is locked without any explanation—raising concerns about the reason for the hole. The stairs are in poor condition and present a tripping hazard, with a loose handrail that adds to the risk. Additionally, the floors are uneven, and the back door does not fully close, leaving a gap at the bottom that allows smoke and bugs to enter the property. The washing machine has a noticeable moldy odor, and there is a lawnmower tractor obstructing half of the driveway. While I could continue listing issues, my intention is not to disparage the host but to point out that the property management is not adequately maintaining the home.

Unsafe
Too many safety and maintenance issues with this property to explain. We definitely won't be going back and don't recommend anyone to rent until the owner corrects a dozen problems with this property. The owner expected us to interrupt our vacation plans while they sort out the numerous maintenance and safety issues with the shower,furniture and hot tub, to name a few. Hope he has good insurance.

Nice little getaway. A little rough around the edges.
House was great. Location worked and house itself was great. I like the keypad check in so you didn’t need to worry about a key. I would say my biggest issues were the couch was very small and hard. It felt like a couch you use for staging a house, not one for actually sitting on. Also, the washer/dryer foamed up when I tried to use it and I couldn’t get the hot water to work in the first floor shower. The second floor shower worked fine though.

The property is super cute, not too close to any neighbors. The rooms were clean, there were lots to do for board games and videos games. We got to use the hot tub in the morning, which was great!

Family Getaway
The house was clean, host was attentive, responsive and helpful. The hot tub was a perfect addition to the property. The beds were comfortable, all linens were cleaned. If the community would be able to update on what’s open and available for use on a day to day basis that would be helpful. Lakes were closed as well as pools so that bummed us out but we made great use of the family games that are provided at the house. We would 100% recommend staying there and would stay again!

As we drove up to the chalet, we were greeted by many deer. When entering the chalet, we found it warm and friendly. We had such an awesome time in the game room. We will be back to this property. We absolutely LOVED it!!!

Very pleasant place to stay!
Incredibly clean, well-maintained place with clear instructions from the owner! We loved the game room and the outdoor area. The only issue we had was trying to check in—we were sent to the welcome center to register instead of going straight through the gate. Everything went well afterwards, though. Overall very pleased!
