The surrounding area is peaceful and true to its name. The host was attentive and communicative, the house was clean, the beds comfortable, and the porches perfect (especially on the rainy days this week)! This was our first time traveling like this with our dogs, and we were very thankful that the house layout was enjoyable for them as well - in particular, they were enthralled with the many deer that passed by. ##### Jessica S.

I took my 85 and 87 year old mother and father for what will be our last trip together. My mom is entering Hospice care this week. She had always wanted to see the Pocono Mountains. I also took my 83 year old Aunt and Uncle so our trip was truly a family affair. They completely enjoyed all the wildlife right in our backyard. We watched the neighbors feed the deer daily by hand!!! We also saw a beautiful black bear and her cub as well as some turkey. The house is really amazing. Beautifully decorated and welcoming. We ate in the screen room every day. The kitchen is very well appointed. All the beds were so comfortable!!! The furniture in the home is also comfortable and well suited for the space. I'd go as far as to say hi-end. I also loved all the art work on the walls. It was so nice to not watch TV!!!! ![My beautiful family in the screen room. ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6f8b4347-6627-41b8-816a-d2398248c79b-1754776990913.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Deer being fed by hand from neighbor ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/12a5348f-3df0-4d84-99a3-78611d372e39-1754776986423.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Deer](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8ca3ad33-7c33-4202-b7ac-70a42ddc7a0c-1754776986747.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Momma bear ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c85bc4b3-1d8c-45dd-be85-c32f109f1f5b-1754776981980.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Francine K.
