Family Lake Vacation

Our family’s vacation in this home was amazing! The two levels gave options for activities on each floor. The number of bedrooms and baths served our group of 12 very well. The amenities provided so many things for us to do - even on the rainy days. Absolutely enjoyed our experience!

Great time for our family

This was our second year at this home and it is perfect for our 6 adults and 4 children. This year we were more familiar with the facilities and surrounding area which made that much more enjoyable. The house was clean and had all of the facilities that we could need. The kids really enjoyed having the lower level all to themselves. There is lots of room to find some quiet time if you want it. The air conditioning worked well and kept us comfortable in the 90 degree heat. Plenty of seating for our family in-house dinners.

Family Vacation

The house was very comfortable for 8 people. There are 2 living areas and 3 bathrooms, so everyone had their own space. We loved that there was a huge dining table for family meals and card games. The house was very clean and well appointed. The size of the kitchen, the amount of storage in the cabinets, and the selection of pots, pans, and kitchen was helpful since we had to cook for all of us. The house is close to all the activities in the area. It is just outside the main part of the community, and although the activities are close, you do have to drive. The only drawbacks we saw were that the house is on the road in and out of the community, so it was not very safe to walk. There is not a shoulder or sidewalks, and cars tended to speed around the bend in front of the house. Also, the deck needs a bit of maintanance and more furniture so all could enjoy. Overall, everyone had a great vacation and said the house was very nice.

Comfortable home, nice amenities.

Pros: Clean property, cutely decorated, well-utilized space, comfortable for two families with teens. Nice amenities, lots of water. Pretty well stocked kitchen. Short checkout to-do list. Cons: Kind of far from anything else, community is very strict with rules, walking is strenuous in community (very hilly). Do bring your own pillows, wash cloths, and maybe a couple extra towels. Overall, happy with the stay and appreciate the two King bedrooms.

Excellent Property for a Larger Family or Group

This property was great for our family vacation with four couples and two children. With four bedrooms for the adults and a separate "bunk room" with two bunk beds (4 bunks), we could have easily added a couple of more grandkids to our stay. The upstairs open living room / dining room / kitchen space had plenty of room for all of us to gather, and there is another living room downstairs. The location is just around the corner from one of the community pools, and about a mile from the lake beaches. The Claws and Paws Animal Park is just a few miles away. The host communication was fantastic with easy self check-in and check-out. Highly recommended!

Great family house

The house is exactly as pictured. It is extremely clean and well kept. The community is nice, but be aware that this is a very rural area. Food delivery is non existent except for one pizza place that closes early. You really need to bring everything you need food wise. We used the house as a halfway meeting point to have a long weekend with family and it was great for that! Pools were fun but other community areas like shuffle board and ball firlds were very run down. Lake was beautiful, but beach area was very small. Maybe 10 families can fit. Hosts were very kind and helpful and they really thought of everything at the house. They were great! Check in/out was very easy. We had 8 people and there was plenty of room for everyone.

Mother’s Day Weekend

We stayed here to celebrate birthdays and Mother’s day. The house was clean, gorgeous and nicely decorated with natural wood features. Took pics for myself to go shopping 😃. The hosts Nathan and Kara we awesome, they made sure we had a smooth check in and was available right away if we had questions. The kids enjoyed the lower level space - it was equipped with a huge Tv, games and foosball table. The parents got to have their private space and enjoy a nice dinner in the dining area. Overall this house was perfect for our family we had 6 adults and 10 children, would highly recommend. We are already planning our trip for next year!

Great House, Excellent Experience

We stayed here for a 3 day weekend with our family and friends. The experience was nothing short of outstanding. Adults had a great time relaxing in the living area upstairs while kids played games and watched tv on the lower level. Also enjoyed the indoor pool in the main community center. Host was very responsive and entire check in/out process was super easy. Will stay here again!

Birthday celebration

we stayed here for a long birthday celebration. It was a perfect house for a large group, for all ages. The house was stocked with many dishes and pot and pan. The beds were so comfortable. We did not get to do many outside activities because of the rain. I would recommend it The house is an older house and is beginning to show its age.

Great family vacation for 6 adults & kids ages 2-8.

We had a wonderful time. The 5 bedrooms and 3 baths were perfect for our group. The kids had a great time in the lower level with the bunk beds and rec room. The facilities at WLE were convenient to the house and varied enough to please everyone. Nathan and Kara were great hosts and communicators. We hope to return next year.

WLE Summer Family Vacation

The house was in a nice typical Pocono community with lots of amenities which we used most of them. The house itself sits on a main road which can sometimes be busy but not so much that the traffic noise is an issue inside. The kitchen was well equipped and furniture was good. The game room was fun. The house did need a little maintenance (light bulbs, clean air filters, running toilet, and outlets not working) but nothing that really ruined our stay. The price was also fair for the rental. Our family did have a great time.

Nice getaway from the city

Our stay was wonderful. We had 6 adults and 6 children under the age of 10. The place had plenty of games to keep the kids entertained all day. We had so much fun in the house that we didn't even bother going to the Rec Room the community offered. We also had so much fun in the fire pit making smores and memories. A lot of deer and that was pleasant to see especially for the kids. There is a pool and volley set up in the community. We didnt get to enjoy that because our kids really wanted to play soccer in the field instead. There's a small playground for the little ones and huge soccer field. Our host, Nathan was very informative and very responsive. We really enjoyed our time in the house. If you have kids or teens this would be perfect place for you.

Family weekend getaway

The house is beautiful! Thoughtful decor, love the little fun facts throughout the house, well-organized and labeled, VERY comfortable bedding and furniture. (My fam are all bedding snobs and everyone approved) It was perfect for our family getaway, (8 adults, 4 kids) the kids played downstairs with Sesame Street or Disney on the tv and the adults hung upstairs playing games or watching some movies. Since the weather was a bit rough, we were able to make s’mores in the fireplace inside, the whole fam was snuggled in around the fireplace, playing board games and watching the kids dance and run around like little crazies. The kitchen was well stocked for our family meals. Nathan was wonderfully responsive to a few minor things that came up. We would totally recommend this property!

Perfect place for a college reunion

The house was great! 10 friends from college got together again after not seeing each other for about 7-8 years and had a great time! Although all the boat rentals at Lake Wallenpaupack were taken, the amenities at the house and the nearby community pools and lakes were more than enough! Just enough room to also play some cornhole on the property too. We also encountered some wildlife too! A racoon visited the deck at night, a skunk near the fire pit, and a black bear scratched at the tree in the front driveway. That was a bit scary but luckily everyone was inside when he arrived. Having the pillows and linens already at the house was a HUGE plus! Nearest grocery store is a Weis about 10 mins away, so we took full advantage of cooking our own food, grilling, and enjoying the entire house. The neighbors and everyone at he pools/lake were super friendly and welcoming as well. We also left some cinnamon, sugar, and vanilla in the pantry for the next guests! It's a must for some great Trench toast! Great place, great stay!

Ideally situated to all the Lakes Area has to offer

We were thrilled with our stay! This property allowed our family to host a reunion of 20 during the day and 13 at night and keep all engaged and cared for. The kitchen and eating are were more than adequate. The three bathrooms and laundry services always had hot water. The pool was within walking distance, and it was a short ride to the two different beaches in the association. Thanks for a wonderful time!

Family vacation

We just checked out of this property as I am typing. The home was clean and welcoming. They had everything well stocked in the kitchen making life easy when traveling with a family of 12. Plenty on bedrooms to fit us all. Roku smart tvs that had everything and anything to watch was a plus when traveling with 2 year old twins. You must bring your own towels, bath and beach but not a big deal. Washer and dryer was nice to have and use when needed. Beaches are a drive away which they mention and can get very confusing when trying to find. Large pool with slide was closed during our stay due to life guard shortage but the other big pool was open and heated. Deer lake was awesome, clean beach too. We traveled to other beaches in the area as well. Promised land park was great. We did the train ride in honesdale which was good. Little towns with shopping amd a fun candy store. Overall, our stay was great and as always, went to fast. We would definitely stay again. Owners were prompt in any messages we sent but nothing was needed from them. If you have a large family and are traveling to the area, this is the place. Driveway fits 4-5 vehicles and we traveled with 3 large trucks and 1 car.

Friendsmas Fun

Overall an excellent experience for my family of 4 + friends! 6 adults upstairs for cooking, cards, cocktails and catching up while the 6 kids had a ball in their own play friendly space downstairs! I enjoyed the nice touches (hand and kitchen soap, tp, brita pitcher, salt/pepper sugar…) that not every vrbo rental will afford you. Having access to ALL the streaming apps was also great We came in the winter, so i’ll caution future renters to CALL AND CONFIRM indoor pool hours…we made the mistake of visiting and reading a pool hours sign that apparently was incomplete and incorrect In Dec 2021 pool is lap swim 8-12, free swim 6-9pm. It goes without saying that the kids were disappointed since we tried to squeeze it in right before check out only to be turned away since our kiddos can’t swim laps. Luckily we found trails, playgrounds and deer sightings to keep the kids smiling on our daily excursions. would stay again!

Holiday getaway

Our stay was great! The place was fantastic, perfect size. It was very clean. We had plenty for space for 9 adults and 3 kids. Make sure you pack all items you will need because the nearest store is at least 15 mins away. The facilities of the neighborhood were nice. Only negative was that the facilities have a lot of rules. The pool had specific times for different age groups. The area is beautiful. While we were packing up we had a mom dear and her baby deer almost walk right up to us. We will definitely stay again. We highly recommend this property.

Could not have been happier with our stay and the house!!! Very clean and accommodating for our large group plus all the kids! Check in process was extremely easy as well as any communication with owners! Only complaint I could have is the boat marina which had nothing to do with the house! (If you are looking to take a trip and plan to be on the water you might wanna look up alternatives to get your boat in and out aside from the community marina) The house was just like the pictures with activities for all! The fire pit was a nice addition to enjoy some out door fun! I would definitely book again!! If you have a large group this is the house for you!!

Por qué eligió esta propiedad

We loved the idea of owning a home in such a family-friendly community that has a great location to Lake Wallenpaupack while also offering such a wide variety of amenities. We have grown to love the small community of Wallenpaupack Lake Estates (WLE)as they are very family focused and often offer great activities for kids of all sizes.

We were able to purchase two homes next to each-other within the same community giving us the opportunity to rent both homes to large groups. This has been a great option for larger groups.

Qué distingue a esta propiedad

Unlike some of the other communities in the area, WLE offers an indoor swimming pool along with their 2 large outdoor pools. The pools along with all of the other activities within the community are wonderful to keep the whole family busy year-round. The fact that the amenities are included free of charge within our community instead of charging extra was a big benefit. All this while being so close to Lake Wallenpaupack was the reason we chose this location! :)
