Relaxing Lake Vacation

The location of the house is excellent with beautiful views. Right next to the swimming and beach area for the kids. Plenty of watercraft for use including life vests. Kitchen is well stocked with the exception of a few nice griddles or frying pans.

Beautiful house with great view

We had a wonderful time. The house was perfect for our family of 8! Spotless upon arrival! Even has a generator which was great to have when we lost power during a rain storm. Our only suggestion is to let renters know that this is in a community with amenities that are an extra cost (public beach, community center activities, pool, playgrounds)

Yearly family vacation

We had a wonderful stay at the lake house. The property was perfect for our large family of 11. We enjoyed the use of the kayaks & paddle boards. The new dock was a pleasant surprise from last year’s dock. We felt it was much safer for our grandchildren. The location to the public beach and playground was a plus too!

Christmas Holiday with Family

Everything about our stay was amazing! So much space to spread out and enjoy being together. We especially liked having the opportunity to play pool and darts. Bonnie was quick to respond to messages and provided additional information as needed. We look forward to arranging another visit.

Perfect Getaway!

We have been renting in this community for approximately 10 years. This home is our top pick. Our stay was wonderful. The home is very accommodating and cozy. The nearby park is so convenient and our children enjoyed heading there. We enjoy the private beach and sitting on the dock and taking in the spectacular view. See you in 2021!

Beautiful house and location

The house was very clean and well stocked. The location was perfect. Its located right next to the beach which has a playground and volleyball net for the kids. It also has a nice shallow swim area.The lake was beautiful and well stocked with fish. The kids can fish right off the dock. The rowboat, canoe, kayaks, and paddleboards were great. Supermarket was only 15 mins away. We loved our vacation and most definitely will be back next summer.

Our Favorite Pocono Destination!

This is our favorite place to stay in the Poconos and the reason we keep returning to this property. It is the perfect location in the Big Bass Lake complex with an easy walk to the beach. The home is well-maintained, fully-equipped and ready for fun, relaxation and some serious fishing. Once again we caught bass, pickerel, perch, crappie bass and a variety of pan fish. This lake produces some of the best fishing experiences for beginners and avid bass masters. We could not be happier with the condition of the property or the responsiveness of the property manager when we had questions. We will be back again and again! As long-time VRBO property users, this property has our highest rating!

10/10 Perfect House. This place will make you want to put your phone down and enjoy life.

First off, the pictures do not do this property justice. The house is AMAZING and huge. The open floor plan is fantastic. Everyone can hang out from the kitchen to the dining room to the living room. The A-frame with floor-to-ceiling glass makes the home feel massive. I appreciate the architecture. The downstairs pool table area looks small in pics, but it is a nice size room. The deck is unbelievable. Everywhere you look, you have million-dollar views of the water. The outdoor area with the fire pit and dock is perfect. Everything in the house is organized and clean. The bedrooms were comfy, and everyone slept well. The TV in the living room is a nice size, and the extra backroom off the kitchen is a nice added perk. The outdoor area alone is enough to want to rent this house again. The dock and boats are fantastic, but my favorite part of the outside is the fire pit beach area stocked with firewood. This home will make you want to put your phone down and enjoy nature and everything around you. I will most definitely be back. 5 Star, 10 out of 10 experience.

Rainy Weekend Saved by Home

1-2 times a year good friends get away to fish. This time the weather did not cooperate but the home did. We were able to play cards, pool, darts and watch the NFL draft. We also had a great meal and drinks at nearby Lombardi’s. The home was extremely clean and spacious and offered everything we needed. Thank you.
