What an amazing birthday !!!

As always I try to come up with a fun activity for my birthday to share with my friends. I thought about how much fun it could be to go up to the Pococnos and go Snow Tubing with our friends. We arrived on Friday and Shaine was there to welcome my family and I. He helped us get the rooms set up and showed us the lay of the land. The house was beautiful. Most of our friends showed up on Friday evening and we went night tubing at camel Back Resort. When we returned, Shaine had prepared a pot of chicken soup for us! He prepared breakfast for us both days that we were there. The house was very clean and everything that we had discussed or I read on the website about the property was accurate. We have decided to make this a annual winter trip !! I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a top line rental !!

Not sure why I got 4 out of 5 stars but the weather was uncooperative and I did my best to make them feel comfortable. I also cleared the snow from off all their cars and throughout my 20 car parking lot before they got up that morning. Will look to try to do more the next time they visit.

HOST AND HOME ARE AMAZING!

A group of 6 Women stayed on the property for a Womens Weekend and from beginning to end... Shaine was so attentive, hard working, easy to talk to, and his breakfast was SUPER DELICIOUS! 1st night we also went to his restaurant to support him and that Jamaican food was SUPERB! He does live in the house but his kind spirit and friendly demeanor makes him seem like part of the group! The snacks and frig full of drinks on the house was a big hit with us! Beds were comfortable. 5 bedrooms with plenty of space and storage/closet space. Just one shared bathroom with a shower so if a large group just figure out a shower schedule (we were 6 women so you know how that is lol) but 2 great half baths downstairs. Close to many restaurants, stores, and attractions. We can not wait until MAY to go back! And we have referred about 15 people to go stay as well because honestly we had such a wonderful experience! THANK YOU SHAINE for opening your home and making us feel like FAMILY!

Excellent!

The hosts are so kind and generous. The house is clean and lovely. The Jamaican breakfast was a mouthful of flavor in every bite. Tried new food today - you can tell that Shaine is passionate about cooking. So welcoming and thoughtful from the fresh mint tea to the Jamaican sausage. Thanks so much!

Great experience.

Property was amazing. Shane has great communication skills as an owner. I had a intimate group of 12 people and he catered to us all. The food was amazing and he had snacks galore.

Fabulous Family Weekend

My sister and I were searching for a place to celebrate my moms birthday this year. We’ve rented houses in the Poconos before to celebrate, but this time we were looking for something a bit different. We saw this house and instantly contacted the homeowner. Shaine was an absolute pleasure to work with. Once I told him our idea for surprising mom with the family weekend away, he spun into action. He loved our idea and vowed to make it special. My sister and I decided to add a catered dinner to the weekend and it was remarkable. He made some tweaks to the menu to accommodate the small children traveling with us and even added a special dessert when he heard my mom mention her favorite cake. He also heard my aunt mention her sauce preference and made her meal special as well. It was those type of personal touches that made a difference. My family loves event planning and we recognized the detail Shaine provided. We didn’t ask for them, but he was committed to make everything nice. From the moment we walked into the house we were greeted with a smile and we felt comfortable and ‘at home’. We loved everything from the breakfast to the family movies in the movie room. Coming from NYC we had access to the NYC daily newspaper which was an additional nice touch. We were a party of 7 adults and 3 children divided among 4 rooms. Everyone had adequate sleeping accommodations and plenty of room. My family had such a great time we are thinking of coming back again next year. Thank you KSK for providing us with a memorable family weekend in the Poconos. If you are looking for a unique experience with a dynamic, hospitable and nice host, contact Shaine and let him show you and your group an amazing time!!!

Winter, her sister Chrystle and her family were an absolute delight to have at the Estate. I was happy to see how delighted they were when they saw my ideas to make the birthday event for their mom even more special. I do look forward to having them again next year (we do discounts for return guests) and hope they bring more people. Chrystle, next time we doing the Karaoke, and we’re going to see who can really sing !!

The property was just as spectacular as the host. Shaine really know how to make you feel special!

We were greeted as soon as we pulled up to the estate with a warm welcome followed by a tour of the property. Shaine had everything set up including every detail. He went out of his way to truly make our weekend one to remember. I'll admit I was a little fearful when booking however as soon as we arrived I knew this was going to be a perfect place. We had a great night watching a movie in the movie theater and playing games. The beds are really comfortable. Shaine really went all out on the breakfast including personalized menus with all our names on them. The thoughtfulness, care and pride shows how much the owner really enjoys taking care of people. We will definitely be back. Thank you Shaine!

Would like to say, thanks to Keith and his group for visiting us for the night. They were the kind of guests that when they left, you feel like they should have stayed longer. I was impressed how they left the rooms so neat and beds made up even though we do change everything in the morning when they leave, but it goes to show that they have we we call "Brought-upsy" meaning, they were brought up properly by their parents. Clean, neat, quiet, have good manners and polite ...If Keith and any of his friends ever want to visit the Poconos again for any reason, they know they have a friend at KSK Estates.
