This place is a gem, with everything you could possibly need. The lake was absolutely beautiful with the trees in full fall mode, and we sat around the fire pit for hours enjoying the view. We caught quite a few fish from the dock as well as the boat provided. Everything was very clean and there was nothing we needed that wasn't supplied. The host responded quickly to the few questions via text and the instructions from check in to check out were extremely simple and clear. Highly recommended - we'll be back for sure!

This property is such a nice spot to get away to. Myself and a group of buddies spent Memorial Day weekend there and had a blast. Plenty of space to rest and relax inside and out. Owners were quick to respond and very helpful. If you are looking for a solid place for a large family/group, look no further!

Family Vacation

Nice secluded location. Lots of privacy. The community has a lot of amenities and activities to do. Our family enjoyed fishing and going on the lake for kayak and canoe paddles. Short drive to Lake Wallenpaupack.

A Beautiful Peaceful Week

We loved the house and the boats. It is so peaceful. You really can not swim in the Lake, it is to shallow, but great for boating and there were plenty of boats. There are so many board games too!. All in all a great week for our family.

The cabin was spacious and could easily accommodate a large family. Kitchen was functional with all the necessities to prepare and serve guests. Deck and fire pit made it possible to enjoy the wonderful lake and surrounding woods. Cabin and walkways are not handicapped accessible for walkers or wheelchairs but can be negotiated with a cane. Still....a wonderful place!

The house was great!!! It was clean and the kitchen is well-stocked with cookware and utensils. The outdoor firepit was awesome with plenty of comfortable seating and an abundance of good firewood. We appreciated the lake access for paddleboarding and enjoyed sitting on the dock bench viewing the lake. We also enjoyed the game choices provided in the house since rained one of the days we were there. Thank you for sharing your house onnthe lake!!!

Great Vacation Spot

The house was as advertised. Very clean and has everything you need. Loved that there was a washer and dryer. Well stocked kitchen utensils. Owner did a great job communicating ahead of trip. Kids loved using the community amenities as well as the lake at the house. Looking forward to a return visit!

Our family has stayed here both summer and winter and it is a fabulous vacation rental. There was plenty of room for the entire family as well as a variety of activities to keep us and our two kids busy. Skiing, golf, hiking, biking and shopping are just some of the many things we have enjoyed during our visits. We highly recommend it.

We enjoyed our stay at this house enormously. We have now stayed both in summer and winter, and have enjoyed both times equally. The house is large, very comfortable, and has everything you need. For summer it has a great beach and excellent equipment for the water. For winter it has a nice fireplace, and indoor activities like games and a foosball table.

Joe's place Gouldsburg

Had a great time. We all loved boats and fishing from the dock. Morning coffee on the deck with a view of the lake was great. We were there in a heat wave, and the house had no A/C. The interior is a little dated, and the pots and pans are not too good. About a 10-minute drive to the pool, not included with the house.

Charming house on a pristine lake

We specifically wanted a lakefront to enjoy the views and water activities, and this property certainly did not disappoint. The house is situated just few steps from the water where you’d find a small sandy beach and a large dock. The house is very clean and well maintained with all the amenities that we needed. The owners are very friendly and responsive. Overall, we had an amazing time and would definitely consider this property again in the future!

Wonderful Lakeside Vacation

Our family had a wonderful stay at this lakeside house. We loved using the canoe and kayak for morning and evening rides on the lake. The sunsets were beautiful. We caught fish everyday. We enjoyed watching the ducks and we saw deer everyday around the house. The house had everything we needed as we cooked many meals during the week. Close proximity to good restaurants and hiking at the Water gap. Will definitely return severalmeals.duringweek.
