We had a lovely stay here with our family for Christmas. It even had a Christmas tree!! It was perfect for hanging out with cousins and we enjoyed dinners around the amazing dining table. The hosts were very communicative and helpful. We would love to come back in the summer!
We had a great stay! The house fit us perfectly and had everything we needed. Beds were super comfortable! Highly recommend for family reunions and friend getaways.
There are 11 of us in our extended family ranging from upper 60s to a one year old. Willow's Place was just what we needed. There was plenty of room for all of us, and the house comes with a well stocked kitchen. The game room came in handy on a rainy day. The sunroom/dining room made it easy to have big family dinners. The facilities at The Hideout are great. The lake, the pools, the tennis and pickleball courts made it so that everyone could find something to do. We hope to return next year
Very clean and comfortable house! Everyone had a good time!
We had a family reunion and this was the perfect spot to have everyone together. We grew up going to the Hideout every year as kids and made unforgettable memories, and as adults, it was just as amazing. This house allowed everyone to be comfortable and play games in the side room altogether at night. Thank you to the owners for a fabulous, care-free experience.
Our family had a great stay at this property! Host was very accommodating and was quick to respond to any questions that I had.
Nine women friends stayed very comfortably. Would be a great house for families ... great game room and yard games! Received an immediate response to all our text questions which hasn't been my experience with other places. Loved our visit and would definitely come back!
Property was great for our group of friends & kids. Very nice location in gated community with little ski hill & tubing.
We had a great time as a group staying at this property. It was 12 of us we and stayed at the property comfortably. We had fun playing pool, ping pong, and marvel vs Capcom arcade game. It's easy to check into the gated community and once you have a pass it's easy to leave and come back anytime you please. Overall we felt safe and enjoyed our stay. Owner of property was very friendly and replied very promptly to messages and place was very clean. I recommend this to any groups and is very kid friendly. The dinning table in the sun room is large and seats multiple, balcony view is very beautiful especially in the morning. Overall we had a great time ?
12 of us stayed at Willows Place including kiddos between the ages of 10mo and 6 years old. It was family friendly, clean, and conveniently located near ski hills with a full grocery store minutes away. Owner was very responsive when we had a question and amenities were great.
Overall this was a great house to stay in. It was the perfect sized for our group and having the pool table in the basement was a big plus. We did not get to chance to use any of the other amenities that the Hideout had to offer but this was a great house and I would recommend it to anyone looking to stay in Lake Ariel.
We definitely enjoyed our stay! There was plenty of games and activities for the children and adults! We loved the sunroom with the extended table. Great for large groups! The firepit was fantastic for relaxation and the coffee bar was a hit! We'll definitely look into renting again! Thank you, Marcy!!
We had a great time and would consider coming back. Our contact agent was accommodating, thorough, and responsive. The property was clean, warm, and pretty modernized (for a Pocono location). The large table in the sunroom was great for 12 person meals. There was plenty of comfortable parking, good beds, sofas, and indoor fireplaces (both wood and faux). We used the propane grill to do a cookout. We also enjoyed the arcade machines and appreciated the smart TVs for airdropping. A few things other renters might consider that could not work for you: The house is definitely not right on the water. There's not much of a view and you are very much in the middle of a (wooded) housing development surrounded by other homes. Kayaks: Because the house is not on the water, make sure you have a plan if you want to utilize the 2 single kayaks and the 17 ft canoe. We luckily had a large camper van but without a racked SUV or truck it would be difficult to get them to the water down the road. The canoe was too large for us to transport. The kayaks are singles (1 person) so not great for families looking to get smaller kids out. Also did not have life vests. We luckily brought our own. Make sure you mention you plan to use them beforehand, so they are accessible. We had to ask (which worked out fine due to the agent's responsiveness) but I could see others being upset by the confusion and delay. Kayaks and other boats are available to rent for $20 somewhere in the complex. Pool table/ ping pong/darts: Be aware that the ping pong table is on top of the pool table. This means you cannot play both at the same time. More impactful is that the ping pong table is placed on pool table so it affects the bounce of the ball. We didn't mind because we were not there a long time and mostly were just playing around but if you intended to have a serious game, you'd be frustrated. We never moved it to play pool either. The darts were all very bent and similarly, if you intended for a serious game, you'd be frustrated. I would not say the house is spacious. Yes, there are lots of comfortable bedrooms, outdoor space, a nice sunroom, and a large deck, but if you have a full group, the living room and kitchen get a little tight with the large furniture. We were fine but it could see a less flexible, less familiar, or older group having issue. We did not use the public amenities or outside fireplace/deck/cornhole/putting green. Overall a good place for our gathering.
Marcy was an extremely communicative and friendly host. She was more than helpful from beginning to end - especially as we were a needy group she was extremely understanding! The house was perfect for our weekend, and ended up being even better than the photos.
This house was perfect for our needs. It had a big covered outdoorish dining area with a long table that had enough seating for our whole family to eat BBQ dinners together, but away from the mosquitoes. The house had enough space for us to hang out in a little, and a fun basement with a pool table/ping pong table and two arcade stations, each with a variety of games. Also, it is part of a community center with easy access to a beach/lake and pool, although the pool was closed when we were there (maybe because of a holiday that day?). Place was clean upon arrival, communication with host was smooth, and fully stocked keurig coffee bar was a nice perk. Everything was as advertised, if anything better, and was a great value. This was our second time using this house and hopefully not our last.
