Great house for the boys trip
This house was perfect for our group of 16 on an annual golf trip. Plenty of beds for everyone, clean, fun and games and the way parts of the house were sectioned off from the kitchen area (which is where we all hung out) was great for the guys wanted a little peace and quiet. Would definitely rent it again
This review comes from the perspective of renting for 14 people. Our stay was in the month of June, so I have no perspective on a winter stay. It checks a lot of "boxes" a large group might be looking for: - LOTS of beds/places to sleep. I think we had a grand total of two people sleeping on couches, and that was by choice, because there was still space for them to sleep on a bed. - TWO refrigerators! When you're cooking for 14 people, this is a necessity. Also, the VERY large pantry area was a welcome bonus. - Lots of eating space in the backyard. There are two large picnic tables that provided ample room to eat outside. Also a small firepit area and a large hottub. - Large dining table. We could seat 8 to 10 people comfortably at the table. This is where all of our board game sessions were held. ;) - Karaoke machine with Bluetooth connectivity. Works great as a music speaker that anyone can stream to from their phone. - Pool table and card table. However, with 14 people we used the dining room table for card/board games. - Massive driveway! We had 8 or 9 cars stacked next to the house/on the driveway with no issues getting in or out. - TVs in all the main areas. It would be nice if the TV in the dining area was larger, but it serves its purpose nicely. There were only two drawbacks in my opinion with regards to a large group. The main living room at the front of the house with the nice big TV can't really hold 14 folks. We made it work though. The other would be the entry point into the kitchen is narrow for a large group. If however your group knows to stay out of the chefs' way during mealtime you'll have no problems. Overall, this house is a great option for large groups looking to vacation in the Lake Harmony area. We always have a great time visiting the area, so I would recommend this house to any large group looking for a rental. Notes: - If you DO rent this house or any in the vicinity, purchase SUPER THICK trash bags. The squirrels and chipmunks were tearing nice holes in our standard trash bags to get at the food. - This house has a crockpot! You might think that an odd thing to note, but when you're cooking for 14 guys a crockpot is invaluable. I mean, I BRING a deep fryer and waffle maker with me every year, so useful kitchen appliances are always helpful. Along those lines, if you make mass quantities of drinks, you might consider bringing a large pitcher. The house has pitchers, but they are on the small side.
If we could give 10 stars we would. The house was perfect for our mini Easter family reunion. It had a fun and functional layout. We had fun with the pool table, hot tub and campfires out back. The customer service was exceptional. The owner was away on a trip but still checked in on us and went out of his way to make sure our trip was perfect. We will definately be back!
Barry was very responsive. We found the house clean and well equipped. I loved the second refrigerator. Specific check in/check our and detailed house rules keeps this rental well maintained. Would rent again without hesitation.
Had a great time with my friends and both houses were as advertised. Barry is a very responsive host and makes sure that you have all the information you need in the area. Look forward to booking again next year.
This was the perfect place for our group to stay during our quick ski get away over the Christmas break. The layout of the house spreads everyone out so can you actually get some privacy and peace and quiet from the kids. The kitchen and the main room are perfect to hangout in the evening in front of a fire to eat dinner, play cards and relax after a day on the slopes. There is a nice pool table that we spent several hours playing on. The hot tub was wonderful. Its located right out the back door so an easy in and out for when its 5 degrees out. Plenty of TV's throughout the house to cut down on any battles about which show to watch. Perfectly located between Big Boulder and Jack frost mountains. 5 minutes to boulder. 10 minutes to Frost. The owner was very responsive to any questions or concerns we had and got back to us with a few minutes after a text or email. WE will definitely rent from The owner again. Thanks for sharing your home with us.
Clean, spacious very family friendly and homey. The hot tub and outdoor area was awesome. We loved the fire pit. We used the house it to host our family Christmas dinner, all 16 of us were able to dine comfortably. There are plenty of TVs in the house and with the 6 kids that went with us, they could each watch whatever they wanted. The house is well spread where the younger kids could be in one section, the older kids in another, and the adults in another without bothering each other :). The house offers plenty of entertainment to keep everyone occupied. The kitchen has everything you can possibly need! This was our first time renting for such a large group, and cant believe we did not do it sooner! The owner is amazing, he responded to all my inquiries within minutes, and provided us with instructions to make my trip as effortless as possible. Definitely an all around 5 star stay.
My friends and I stayed at this wonderful rental property for a long weekend. Everything was very clean and the house included all of the the amenities that we needed. The kitchen has a traditional coffee maker AND a keurig :-) The house is about a 5 minute drive to Hickory Run Park which has waterfalls, hiking trails, and the boulder rock field. It's definitely worth visiting. The property owner, Barry, was always quick to respond to our questions. This is a great place for a getaway weekend and the house is large enough to accomodate large groups (approx.18) of friends or family reunions.
We were a group of 10 with two children and the house accommodated us well. The kids loved exploring the grounds and the outside area was Comfy for fireside chats... Walks to the lake were leisurely and the town had some nice restaurants for lakeside drinks. All in all a Funtime . If you get a chance do some water sports that are available in town. Highly recommend this vacation home.
Owner Response
34 of the 36 reviews we have to date are five stars. One of the two 4 stars was a mistake by the person that submitted it - he advised it was supposed to be 5 stars. If you read this review, we are not sure why this was only 4 stars. Everything was positive and the guests are more than welcome back. Maybe some people have a hard time in giving anyone 5 stars. :-) We really do our best and our hope is that all our guests have a better time than even they expected.
The home was perfect for our family of 15 (10 adults, 3 teenagers and 2 toddlers). The house was really clean and bright. We had enough room in the two large refrigerators to store all of our food for the week. The kitchen had every thing we needed to cook our meals. The breakfast bar, high-top table and long dining table in the large open eating area was perfect for meals. The two separate upper levels provided living and sleeping spaces for and having 4 bathrooms was a real treat. The stairwells to upper levels can be closed off which was very helpful with the toddlers running around. All of the beds and pillows were comfortable. The living room furniture was really comfortable and the large TV's throughout the house let people settle down here and there and watch whatever they wanted. We spent time outside in the hot tub, we used the beautiful outdoor chairs and huge picnic tables and sat around the fire-pit in the evening. The homes in the neighborhood have lots of space between houses; it was quiet and private. The house is within a short drive of everything if you need groceries, ice cream, adult beverages etc. Lake Harmony is a small private lake within a short walk from the house and great for paddle-boarding, sups, kayaks etc. but not really big enough for larger watercraft although jet-skis and power boats are allowed. The beach pass provided is for the private beach which is open from 11AM - 7PM. We did sightseeing in Jim Thorpe, road the Lehigh railroad, toured the Asa Packer mansion (Really interesting!!!) and walked thru the little shops. The teens had fun at the water park. Barry was super responsive answering questions (I asked a LOT of questions). We were completely satisfied - more than satisfied - with this house and would highly recommend it. We would definitely rent from Barry again.
Terrific vacation house! Plenty of room, comfortable accomodations, peaceful atmosphere! Great for multiple families as house is very spread out with separate and quiet sleeping areas in different parts of the house. Close to Lake and other ammenities. Barry was great, very thorough and easy to deal with, always replied immediately to my inquiries during the booking process. House has everything you need for a great getaway!
Great house with pool table and plenty of rooms to fit a large group of people. House was well kept and clean upon our arrival. Owner was very responsive and easy to get along with. Definitely recommend this house to anyone.
The outdoor space in this house is the best. We traveled with five small children who love to explore, bike, and play outdoors. The big circular driveway and flat neighborhood made biking and riding scooters safe. The house is spacious with plenty of rooms to spread out. The kitchen has two refrigerators and plenty of counter space. We often had three to four people fit in there comfortably. The location is an easy commute to Jim Thorpe, a great day trip! The other must see is Hickory Run State Park. It has a beautiful swimming lake and great hiking. Barry is so helpful and responded quickly whenever we called.
We rented the house for Memorial day weekend for a guys weekend and had a great time. Upon arrival we let Barry know a few light bulbs were out and he came right over and replaced them. The house is a great set up for a larger group with 2 separate upstairs areas and multiple recreation areas. The backyard with hot tub and grill was great for a day of lounging when we had good weather. 2 refrigerators was also super helpful for a group of 15. I'd recommend this house to anyone with a large group, we had 15 and never felt cramped at all. Barry was also very easy to work with throughout the rental process and wanted to do everything he could to make sure we had a nice stay.
My experience began before we got to the house. Dealing with Barry was great, very personable and responds to emails rapidly. When we got to the house it was better then expected. There was 12 of us and we all had our own beds, the bathrooms we great. The kitchen worked out well and the patio was something everyone enjoyed. My only suggestion to the owner is to get a new pool table, I couldn't win a game to save my life lol. House is situated near everything you need. Very nice house, great amenities always equals good times.

As you can tell from reading the review, it was intended to be 5 stars and the person that wrote it tried to change it. But VRBO has no mechanism to correct the number of stars. Obviously, it is the review not the number of stars that matters and I trust you can see how hard my wife and I work at making the stay of our guests as enjoyable as possible. Thank you. Barry
We were very pleased with our stay. The house is very well kept and had plenty of room for our large family. The property owner Barry was very accommodating and went out of his way to make sure we had every thing we needed. The home is situated perfectly between both ski hills and the water park which made it super convenient. We will definitely be booking the home again next year.
The house was the perfect size and only minutes away from the nearest ski resort. Lake Harmony is a short ways around the corner with restaurants and bars within short driving distance. Definitely recommend this property!
We rented this home for our Destination Christmas 2016 and we could not have been happier. There were 10 adults and 7 kids (with a few extra visitors on the holidays) and this house had plenty of room for everyone and ample areas / games (pool, Foosball, karaoke, and board games) for the kids to play. Kids were 10 and under so even with high chairs and pack n plays, we were able to fit very comfortably. We loved the kitchen / dining area as we were all able to fit around the tables and enjoy our time together (and the two refrigerators was a major plus for such a large group). We have been renting houses all over the US and this was by far the best experience we have had yet. I attribute a great deal of this to Barry and his ownership and responsiveness during the process. He answered questions, provided a ton of information about the area and things to do, and was very appreciate to have us as renters as well. It was a great time and would definitely do it again!
I've stayed at several of Barry's properties over the last few years, and it is always the absolute best. He is constantly upgrading his properties, and this one was no exception. The games, the tvs, pool table, foosball table, hot tub and ample seating and common areas make for this to be the perfect destination for large groups with varied interests. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the second fridge was so helpful to have for overflow! The property is an easy walk down to the lake, but feels private and secluded. Outside of the property itself, I can't say enough positive things about Barry. He is responsive, kind, and makes you truly feel like you're staying at a family member's home in their absence. I will absolutely seek opportunities to stay at Barry's properties in the future, and I can't encourage anyone enough to make the trip to Lake Harmony for any occasion. I'd give 10 stars if I could!
We rented this home for my 30th birthday and it was a great home. There was 18 of us and we felt that there was plenty of room for everyone. The home has a great game selection (pool, Foosball, karaoke, and board games). We enjoyed the hot tub and using the nice grill as well. We saw a lot of deer from the back patio! All of the TVs had working remotes and were easy to find. There was a lot of dishes, cooking utensils, and silverware to use; we washed everything in the dishwasher which worked great. It was also nice having a washer and dryer. We were also able to bring our dog, which was a plus. We will definitely be renting this home again!
Rented the place for a college reunion. It's absolutely monstrous, very easy to get lost in there! House had more than enough room for 18 people to spread out comfortably. Amenities like hot tub, pool table, and big tv's made sure everyone was occupied. The beach is a 10 minute walk away which was great. The side yard was a great place to hang out in the afternoon and throw a football. Wonderful, wonderful property. Barry is a very amenable guy too! Very accommodating.
Excellent getaway !!! Just what we needed and everything we wanted!!! The house is fabulous - has all the comforts of home, and more ! So very extremely spacious, but brought us all together for meals at the large dining table, many games of pool and foosball, BBQ, hot tub, board games, movies, walks to the lake....Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms, televisions, and sitting areas inside and out. Lots of deer sightings and beautiful, peaceful surroundings. Prime location for lake activities - beach, swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding - we enjoyed them all! Barry and Kari were a pleasure to deal with ... All transactions went smoothly and ALL questions were answered promptly. Can't wait to bring my family back again for ski season !!! Thanks for some great memories !!!
We had the best family re-union, thanks to a spacious, comfortable, clean and safe house. Our group had 12 adults and 6 children (4 under 2 years). Not only are the two separate second floor areas private, but they can be closed off by doors so little ones aren't tempted by the stairs. Two large closets actually have room to put a pack 'n play in for sleeping babies. And there's no balconies or high decks to worry about! The kitchen was spacious with everything you need and the two refrigerators a big bonus. The big dining table was perfect for meals and games at night. Two long picnic tables and additional seating out back were great for all our barbecues. The hot tub and game rooms were wonderful so we hardly left the property, except to go to the lake and take walks to see the deer and turkeys in the neighborhood. Very ample paved parking was appreciated. Barry was great to work with. He answered my questions very promptly. Thanks to Barry we had a fun and carefree re-union! I would definitely recommend this house to friends.
We had about 20 people and there was plenty of room, especially for a crowd of people who had never stayed together before. (dance team event) Very neat and clean wit a nice location and lots of updated areas. Outside picnic table and hot tub area was great. I also left my fitbit behind and didn't figure it out for about 3 weeks. I contacted the owner, and they did have it and shipped it back to me. I thought that was going above and beyond and was really impressed. Great people to rent from.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. We were 15 adults and 3 children and the house setup was perfect for all the families to have their own space. The house was clean and all the appliances were top of the line. There was plenty of entertainment in the house with pool and Foosball tables and plenty of TVs and a grill, and plenty to do in the neighbirhood, including the private beach our kids loved. We would definitely recommend to our friends and would love to come back.
This house was absolutely amazing. It was not only updated and charming but very, very clean and well kept. Barry was so easy to work with and very quick to respond to all correspondence. We enjoyed our trip so much we have already booked with him again.
We had a great stay in this house on the weekend of May 6 -8. The house was very nice, clean, and had all the amenities to make it a great weekend. We had 15 people and everyone was able to find a place to sleep comfortably. Barry was great in every regard - super accommodating and responsive. Would absolutely rent this or another of his properties again.
Had a great stay at this house. Slept 16 comfortably. Very spacious kitchen and dining area as well as game room. Blocks away from the lake and perfect location for going skiing. Would absolutely stay here again, has an amazing weekend.
Everything about the place was great. 16 adults had plenty of room to eat, sleep, watch tv, play pool, etc. The dining area is very spatious and was where we spent a majority of our time together. Barry was timely with all of his emails and very thorough and detailed with all of his instructions. Plenty of room to park multiple cars. Everything in the house seemed completely new. Everyone that stayed enjoyed their weekend at this great house.
What a wonderful stay at this magnificent home, as our family gets bigger and the young adults are getting their own families this home was outstanding for the amount of rooms and privacy but so perfect for closeness and family togetherness..... we have 16 of us and it was a perfect fit for all Thank you !!!!!
Our large group of 15 really enjoyed Super Bowl Weekend at this home. Everything is new so that makes the stay so much more comfortable. There are 2 full size refrigerators in the kitchen which makes cooking & storing food easier. There is also a mini kitchen upstairs which allowed for coffee in the morning in bed. TV"s in most rooms allowed us to spread out when we wanted. Pool table got lots of use. Loved the hot tub. Great Communication with Barry & Kari. Already checking for next year!
House is much nicer than the description - virtually everything is brand new and top of the line. Barry, the owner, could not have been more accommodating and responsive to all our questions. This house and the area are great for family vacations. We have found a vacation place to return to again and again.
My friends and I had a great stay over the weekend. The house was spacious for all 15 of us to be in one room to hang out, at the same time the house was large enough where people can go to a more quiet spot to just relax on their own as well. The pool table and foosball table were great, with the bluetooth speakers was a nice touch to enjoy great music while playing some games. The hot tub was nice as well! The owner was readily available if anything as needed and was kind and great in accommodating us.
This house was perfect for 4 families (8 adults and 8 kids). Everyone had their own space and could escape to quiet if needed in different sections of the house. We all enjoyed the foosball table and pool table and the large TV was great for movies. The hot tub was great. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of them (remember sheets and towels). We were easily able to go to the Split Rock indoor water park one day, which was less than 5 minutes away, and also ski at Jack Frost which was 5 - 10 minutes away. The deer did indeed come to the back door which was neat, and the neighborhood around Lake Harmony was very nice for walking. Barry the owner was incredibly responsive.
This is a great house for a family get together. It is large and very spacious ! There are so many nooks and crannies! The kids loved it and each family had their own suite! The location of the house is so convenient to the area. Everyone really enjoyed the pool and foosball tables. As well as the brand new hot tub!! Some of us never left the house the whole weekend!! Barry is wonderful to work with. He gets back to you immediately and is very accomodating. Our family will definitely rent from them again. Thank you again Barry for allowing us to rent your beautiful home!!
We had an awesome time. The house is very spacious and almost everything is brand new. New beds pillows etc..very clean. The set up is great. You can play pool in one room and watch tv in another and not hear any noise. We had alot of fun with the foosball table and pool table. The owner Barry is very accomodating and a pleasure to rent from. I will definitely rent from Barry again.
We rang in the New Year year at this wonderful home in Lake Harmony Estates. It was great having so much space - 5 families of 4, and we never felt like we were on top of each other. It really helped to have so many rooms. The kids loved hanging out up the spiral staircase, which gave the adults some peace and quiet downstairs. Both the kids and adults enjoyed the foosball and pool tables and even in the freezing cold the hot tub was great fun. Both sets of stairs had doors to close which really helped with the toddlers in the house. With so many people, it was really great to have 2 full size refrigerators. We spent one afternoon down the road at Split Rock. In the summer time, the lake is just down the road. Barry, the owner, is amazingly responsive. We all hope to return.
House was perfect for everyone in our extended family from my 5 year old niece to my 70 year old father. We played foosball and had a pool tournament. The house was very clean. So many rooms and tv's that you could still have some privacy and watch your favorite show. Hot tub was a nice treat in the am and pm. Matresses were very comfy and brand new. Kids loved feeding the deer apples and watching the turkeys run by. Kids also loved the upstairs through the hidden spiral staircase. They called it their secret room. We can't wait to go back again next christmas break.
