"Skye View" EV Charger, Whole House Sound System, Firepit, Gas Grill, Private Hot Tub, Pool Table
Skye View is impressive inside and out. The welcoming stone front is just part of this wonderful mountain home with rustic details (a tongue and groove pine ceiling, stone fireplaces, log frame beds) that carry throughout. The feel may be rustic, but the amenities are abundant including WiFi, a house-wide wireless sound system, a nicely tucked away outdoor hot tub, two 7 ft picnic tables on the wrap-around deck and 3 Smart TVs (52" in game room, 46" in great room and 42" in bonus room). There are also 22" TVs in all 7 bedrooms. PLEASE NOTE: NO PROM or GRAD Groups, even with adult signature or chaperones.

Our family had a really good time. There were lots of places for the family to gather both indoor and outdoors. However, we had a challenge with communication. Compared to other places we have stayed, the hosts were not as responsive or communicative. For example, when we arrived one room smelled like cigarettes smoke. This was concerning since some of our guests had severe allergies. When we called we were directed to leave a message and that someone would call us back. However, after multiple voicemails and messages in the VRBO app, we did not get a response that day and had to make alternate sleep arrangements.
The next day, on our first full day, we also had challenges with the internet. That morning I called and left another message. Finally a gentleman reached out and came to the house to help us with the internet. It took a few hours but he was able to replace the router and get the internet back up and running. He was friendly and helpful, but told us that he only dealt with IT issues.
To be fair, the host also responded to our concern about the outdoor garbage bins being completely full when we arrived. However, the situation with the bedroom was never addressed. It was frustrating to know that when I had a concern it may take quite some time to get a response, if at all. Overall, our experience was mostly positive and our kids made great memories.

My family (15 of us)and I stayed at this house for Thanksgiving for 5 day. The house is really nice, however, the kitchen is REALLY under equipped. I wanted to bake pies for Thanksgiving dinner and there were NO measuring cups or measuring spoons. We made homemade mashed potatoes and there was NO hand mixer. We all wanted to have wine with dinner and there were NO wine glasses. The pots and pans were horrible and really not a great variety of sizes. We made pasta one night and there were NO large pots to boil 5 dozen ravioli.They advertised the kitchen as a well equipped kitchen. By far this was not a well equipped kitchen. Other than that, the house was nice.

We love Skyeview Chalet as this is our second year staying at this property. Its very clean and accommodates our group of 10 appropriately. We did have major problems with the WiFI as none of us were able to access the in-home network for any long sustaining period of time. Also the sound system was not working at all...we could not get a connection, it continued to go in and out. When we called for assistance we were told that they would call back and we never received a call. And finally, the sofa couch downstairs on the bottom floor is in terrible shape. If you sit on the couch, it goes down to the floor. Our group loves this property, but their are members that plan on looking for another property to stay next years if these items are not addressed.
We had a group of guys for a bachelor party. We really enjoyed the house and loved the 2 double sided fireplaces. The whole house Bluetooth stereo system was also a great feature. Great deck and plenty of bedroom space. Would highly recommend
We stayed in this house for my birthday and it was perfect! The surround sound system allowed everyone to enjoy the music while they were playing pool or upstairs hanging out. Love the many locations to hang out and it accommodated a group of 15 perfectly and could have fit more! We all kept saying we would love to stay here again in the future. Thank you for having us! Lovely home.
Great stay, great house, great location! Our favorite part was the easy checkout- thank you so much for that! Only thing was the Wi-Fi didn’t work for us, and sound travels really easily so if we brought our kids it would have been tough to find a quiet space. Other than that- amazing all around. Thank you for this great stay- we hope to be back!!!
The house was fantastic for a spring break getaway from Manhattan with a group of our friends and their kids. The house was perfect for our group and was exactly as advertised. The property management company was a breeze to deal with and very responsive to our questions. This was an excellent experience and we will definitely be back.
We enjoyed skiing and snowboarding with friends for two days at Jack Frost and Big Boulder. Check in and out was easy. House was large and located about 10 minutes drive from each ski resort. Kids enjoyed the hot tub. Layout of the house was great for our 4 families. Linens were provided but for anyone who hasn’t rented in this area, I always find that the Pocono houses do not have well stocked kitchens. It’s not a huge problem...just something to know so that you bring extra things (wine glasses, garbage bags, dishwasher and laundry detergent Salt and pepper olive oil etc...) overall It was a great weekend with friends.
Skye View was an ideal house for a group stay in the Poconos.
Keys to a successful rental: cleanliness, amenities, location, vibe, responsive management....Skye View checked all of these boxes. We were two families and had more than enough space to feel comfortable. I would definitely return.

Reviewer Comments:
We used this house as a weekend getaway with college friends. We had 22 people and the house easily accommodated us. Everything was in great shape when we arrived and PMR made the entire trip hassle free. Definitely recommend for a large group.
Overall the property was great, we would definitely rent again in the future.
We got to the property and found it to be very clean and well cared for. Few concerns involving ripped open trash bags with trash thrown around the outside of the property, I’m sure compliments of the neighborhood bear. The hot tub was obviously not used in a while it developed a muddy sediment, took us a day to get clean enough to enter. Other than these two hiccups the house was fantastic, our family enjoyed immensely, we are considering a week next year. Thank you, stay well
We rented this house for a golf trip for eight. The house was perfect. Great location, clean and responsive management company. Would definitely rent this house again.

Beautiful property, great location and ideal for large group
House was within 5 minute drive of Big Boulder which was perfect for our big group. All of the bedrooms and baths were well maintained. Our internet service went down one day and the Property Management group was over within hours to fix it which was awesome! Only suggestion would be to have wine glasses and some extra blankets in the house. We had a wonderful weekend and stay at Skye View.

Relaxing and fun time. The only concern was that the property was rented with a severely damaged stove that should of been fixed prior to renting. The stove handle and part of the glass cover was broken and it made it very difficult to cook food inside. Besides that incident the house was cozy and the area relaxing. Had an amazing time.
