    What a wonder time our family had at the Forest Chalet. Andy and Michelle were the best hosts ! Their home is beautiful and clean. The decor is exquisite. Everything you need and more is right at your fingertips. They have thought of everything ! The downstairs game room with the 85 inch TV and a big popcorn maker was a BIG hit with the four boys, but so was the pickleball court and the hot tub. The hiking and dining were great too, but coming back to the Forest Chalet and all that was waiting for us there at the end of a day made this vacation our best yet !

    Absolutely loved our stay at the forest chalet. The home was spotless and well stocked. Loved having linens included along with basic paper goods. Always nice having less to pack! The home was cozy and had so much to do to keep our families entertained. Loved all the modern upgrades on property. The managers were easy to communicate with. The only thing I’d suggest is adding a drying rack for dishes! Will absolutely be back.

    Property was immaculate, clean and tidy beds, excellent amenities with everything functioning properly / as it should. A nice perk was that a lot of the lights had dimmer switches. Fans / split units for temperature control to your liking. We would and have discussed coming back again. Property owners were very responsive.

    We had the best stay at The Forest Chalet! The house was super clean, cozy, and had plenty of space for all our guests. We were there celebrating my sister’s bachelorette before her big “I Do” in December and it couldn’t have been a better spot! There were so many fun things to do right in the house that we barely left. We had a taco night with margaritas by the basement bar and a movie night on the big comfy couch downstairs. The owners were so friendly and easy to communicate with, which made planning our weekend a breeze. We’d definitely love to stay here again!

    My two daughters and their friends stayed for a bachelorette weekend and had a wonderful time. They said the house and location was great. Loved the hot tub and deck to relax. They said there were deer walking around and it was truly an experience. Lake Harmony was beautiful and they had a nice dinner there. Tons to do in the area towns. Jim Thorpe was great and so was East Stroudsburg.

    Spacious living areas, attractively furnished and very clean. We were amazed that all beds were made when we arrived, which was wonderful after our long drive there. The three kids who were with us enjoyed all the games, and the men loved the huge TV for watching a couple games. Hot tub was especially nice after hiking and white water rafting, and s'mores by the outside fire were fun. We have stayed in other properties but this was the best.

    The house was in a nice neighborhood and easily accessible. Desired activities were a short drive away, so proximity was great. The house was clean and as advertised, but could use a few things when considering the young children we had with us (1-4 yrs). Outlet covers, step stools for washing hands, child-oriented outdoor games (although the giant connect 4 was a huge hit!), yard cleanup (many stones and loose grass in the grassy areas where we wanted to play), and small deck chairs would be good additions. The wifi was great for a large group and the TV/Lounge setups were nice. It might be a good idea to have the cleaning team scan through TVs to log out prior guests from their access as we found some still connected.Overall, we enjoyed the stay and had fun at the pool, the beach and walking the neighborhood between vacation activities.

    We had a great time at the Forest Chalet and are so grateful to have had our reservation accepted on such short notice. The house is immaculate, comfortable beds, and a super fun game room. We really loved our stay and would definitely go back again. The only slight issue was that it's listed as a five bedroom, though the Murphy bed upstairs is in a loft setting. Just good to know for future guests, and of course, we read the description quickly because we were in a crunch to book. Everything worked out very well in the end!!

The girls loved the lower level with all the games. They even popped popcorn. We were 25 minutes from blue mountain, which that’s where they went tubing. Communication was great with Michele. It was a perfect weekend.

The lower level also could access outside where we spent most of our time playing games and in the hot tub.

    This house was wonderful for our stay. My wife and I, along with our 2 daughters, their husbands and our three grandchildren (ages 16, 10, and 6) stayed for 9 days in late July and early August of 2024. The hosts, Michele and Andy, were wonderful and very attentive to our questions. They were so easy to work with and helpful in so many ways. The house fit our needs perfectly.!! It is exactly as described and is well appointed. The community has a clubhouse with a large pool, a very nice beach and a lake where you can rent kayaks or paddle boats. It is close to Lehighton and Jim Thorpe with access to river rafting and biking along the Lehigh river. We had a great time on our family vacation, and would highly recommend this home.
