Our group of 8 had an amazing stay. The biggest thing, and what we found to be lacking in other places we rented, was that there was plenty of seating in the living room for everyone to spread out an relax. The game room was an added bonus.
The place was nice for the group we had. There was plenty of space so we did not feel that we were on top of one another. Kitchen has a nice layout to move around.
My friends and I had a great time here! It was super spacious and we loved all the hang out areas, like the living room pit, game room, and hot tub! Huge kitchen also. We would definitely stay here again.

Not for us
This property would work for a family of teens. You wouldn’t have to worry about destroying anything. Our family is used to a cleaner place that is run well. Behind our bed were massive clumps of dust clinging to the rough wood wall and trash on the floor. When we arrived one bedroom was hot and another freezing. We had to contact the owner and it never was resolved although he told us what to do. He controls the temperature remotely and I think he just changed it back after we changed it. Also, every VRBO we’ve stayed at previously have provided shower soap and shampoo. It was 9:30 at night when we went to shower and realized there was no soap or shampoo. Contacted the owner who said 1)he doesn’t supply it because people have allergies 2)it’s not the norm. My reply 1)shower amenities are supplied and if people have allergies they bring their own soap. This was a cop out excuse. 2) every VRBO we’ve stayed has supplied shower amenities including 3 other properties in the Poconos.
