Owner's Profile
Why the Owner Chose Shawnee on Delaware
My husband used to come here for golfing since he was attending Fordham University in NY. Our favor vacation place has been always Poconos.
Finally we decided to build one instead of renting.
That how we got this beautiful comfortable house here in Shwanee.
The Unique Benefits of this House
Most of guests enjoyed that we have 2 living rooms( one we call a family room or den), as their children could watch own TV shows or playing games etc.. while the adults enjoyed chatting with family or friends or watch their own show. Also, they liked the idea of having 2 bed rooms and a full bath on the 1st floor as some times they had older people who do not like stairs.

Great Golfing

Review Submitted: 09/30/11
We had a great time last weekend in the Poconos.The rain stopped Saturday and Sunday so the guys got in 2 rounds of golf. The accommodations were great. We appreciate all the little things that were available. Stuff that you usually forget to bring like liquid soap, dish towels, soap for dishes paper towels, etc. We were ale to use the grill outside and there was plenty of propane. Also, there were plenty of linens. We left them near the downstairs bathroom and I left the cleaning fee (tip) on the kitchen counter. If we do this golf outing next year, we will certainly will want to rent the house again.

Hi Kay Here is what we have to say about the cabin you provided us. "We had been here for a get-together. It is a very nice and very accomodating place. Surronding is very beautiful. They have a jacuzzi, gas grill, a big deck and a well equipped kitchen. Kay also provided us with clean linens and towels on request. We would definitely recommend this place to all our friends and family. " Thanks, Regards Sameer

Perfect house for race weekend!

Thank you Bud and Kay for a beautiful, big house for our race weekend. As you said, Kay...it was fairly close to Pocono Raceway. It took us about a half hour to get there and it was a beautiful ride. This house was perfect for our party of 6 adults and 6 teenagers. Having you supply the linens for a small fee was perfect as the bed sizes dont always match the ones we have at home. Your house directions were perfect as well. We were able to see deer and wild turkeys and it was so peaceful. We enjoyed sitting on the deck at night as well. Thank you again for all of your quick responses from the time we were first inquiring.

A lot Bigger than it looks

Review Submitted: 02/11/11
This place was actually a lot bigger than it looks. Everyone in my group thought it was a great place for the price and had a lot of room, I guess my mind was expecting something of the New York spacing. Also very close by to shawnee, which was great when we wanted to go snowboarding.
Owner response:Dear Tom and family Thank you very much for submitting the review. We enjoyed having you there very much. You were one of the best guests. You took care of our house very well and the cleaning girl got so easy job. I would like you to come back again. Looking forward to hearing from you next yeat.

The house clearly resembled how the owner described it. The location was exactly where we wanted to be, an opportunity to get away from the ustle and bustle of the city. The property was clean and well maintained. There were a great number of activities for people of all ages, we had multiple children present and they were never without excitment.

Memorable Family Weekend
Guest: Cape Codders

Date of Stay: 04/23/10
Review Submitted: 06/22/10
With family located from Cape Cod to Falls Church, Virginia; and ranging in age from 5 months to 87 years, we decided to meet half way. Bud and Kay's Pocono Chalet was the perfect choice for us. Lots of bedrooms, bathrooms, large great room with plenty of seating for all to gather, and a comfy den for a smaller group or a quiet "escape" from all the excitement. Kitchen was very well equipped, deck spacious, the long dining table just what we needed. We found the Shawnee Inn charming, lots of restaurant choices very close to the house, and wonderful walking and hiking trails nearby. Excellent communication and easy rental transaction. We hope to be return later this year and thank you very much for providing the setting for a most memorable family gathering
