Great Lakefront Vacation

Our family and friends (6 total) just came back from an awesome vacation at this property. Communication with the owner's daughter (April) was excellent. The property is beautiful and in an idylic spot on the lake. We made use of the provided boats and pier to fish and swim. The amenities in the house are outstanding, and all of the small provided touches are excellent...quite honestly, there is very little we needed to bring. Many thanks for an utterly amazing week!

Great “Hide Out”

The property was perfect for our family get away. There is something here for everyone if you want to relax, play golf, kayak, swim, fish, and, with restaurants and other attractions nearby. Our family is considering a place such as this for a vacation home purchase. The owner is super responsive and provided all we needed to make our vacation stress free.

Comfortable and beautiful lakefront

After a couple of hours settling in the Darcy lakefront house felt so much like home! The view from the dining room table and the new deck was so beautiful and relaxing! The kitchen had everything you could need and most of all April was the friendliest owner! Her quick communications were so much appreciated! Thank you April and Theresa for the opportunity to stay at your lovely home! We hope to be back again soon!

Loved our first taste of lake life!

We had a wonderful stay! The weather could have been better but a very short drive to a cute zoo and a bowling alley made up for the days that weren’t exactly perfect to be out on the lake. We looked into some of the amenities within the Look Out and did a short trip to one of the beach’s but we soon learned there really wasn't any reason to leave the house! It has everything you need to have an enjoyable stay. My kids loved the toys and games found in the house and were total water bugs in lake and loved fishing right off the dock! It was just the relaxing and fun vacation we were hoping for! If you’re looking for a peaceful place, an amazing lake view and fun activities within a short drive, stay here! You won’t regret it!

About the host

Hosted by Teresa Darcy

Our family vacationed in the Poconos for years with family and friends. We fell in love with the sunsets and sunrises sparkling off this lake. There was so many activities that our summer vacations soon extended into fall and winter weekends. Then my husband and I discovered golf, which this area is known for, and then we purchased our home 30 years ago.

We bought a home that was right on the lake because the views are so spectacular and there is so much to do. We look forward to sharing this magical place and home with you and your family!

Why they chose this property

This home offers a variety of activities to enjoy. Fishing is great in spring, summer, and fall, and we're only a short ride from New York City and New Jersey.

What makes this property unique

Thirty feet to water's edge. Great Fishing!

This house has everything you need for a great family vacation. A perfect escape from your busy work days. Imagine having your own lake --- our dock is convenient for you to bring your own boat, or use ours.

Family meals can be informal feasts on our outdoor tables or casual meals in our spacious kitchen and dining area. Whether you are grilling or just chilling you will find loads of nearby restaurants and eateries to satisfy your family and friends.
