Delightful stay.
The house is charming and immaculate. The beds are very comfortable and the house has everything you would need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The location is excellent too. The only thing that could improve is the sofa. It is very uncomfortable to sit on. Thank you for a delightful stay!

About the host

Host profile image
We are happy to call the Lake Wallenpaupack area home. Vacation memories are some of our favorite and we want to help others create those lasting memories in our area.

Why they chose this property

We want to bring life to older forgotten homes and this was one of them. When we saw the location on the water and the potential this house had we couldn't say no. It's close to town, with no neighbors close, it is the perfect little getaway location.

What makes this property unique

This cottage sits on 2 acres with no neighbors in sight. You don't need to worry about who or what is happening next door. When looking out the windows there is nothing but trees and views of the lake, no need to close the curtains they just frame the view. Plenty of room for the kids to play, watch them while resting on the back deck or swinging in the hammock. The firepit area is perfect location to enjoy the views of the lake. Don't forget we provide a kayak, row boat & life vests to hit the water. We also have everything to cook your meals including a gas grill. Grab groceries on your way in or have them delivered. Just need a place to rest your head before exploring the area? Just about everything you would want to do is within 10 minute drive. We are at a prime location for it all.
