The property is in a nice location, less then a block from the closest pool and the resort was great. Be aware that the resort fees are actually $8/pp. Other than that, just know what you’re getting into: you’re getting what you pay for, and there’s plenty of reasonably accurate reviews for you to know what to expect. To elaborate: The house smells like dog. The pictures are not entirely accurate- there’s been quite a few DIY “renovations”. Beds very uncomfortable, loud, and didn’t have mattress protectors. There was a grill, but it’s on its last leg. The dryer isn’t anchored to the brackets in the closet so we didn’t use it when we wanted to bc we were afraid it was going to fall down. Over-all kinda crusty. If you have animals or really can’t afford anything else, it’s good enough. I wouldn’t chose to go back.
Good communication with owner when issues came up they took care with quickness and urgency very happy would stay again
The overall it was prefect for our short stay, the pumpkin light out front was a nice little touch. Check in was super easy and the neighborhood is very nice. The interior at first glance looks exactly like the pictures. The bedrooms looked very nice and the kitchen was well furnished. The silliness began once we realized that the lights in the rooms weren't connect to a switch, but the TVs were. The next thing we noticed was that the heaters in the master bedroom and bathroom didn't work. (The first night there it was cold out) The exhaust fan above the oven didn't work. The hot water in the bath tub/shower had to be turned a curtain way to be hot. In the bedroom to the left of the bathroom, I found it odd for the bed on the right to be right up on the heater. That and the little table with the light on it was nice, wobbly. Instead of going through the rest of the interior things I noticed, I'll just say it looked rough and lived in... Lastly, wash rags are inferior to sponges.
The home was very comfortable and homey feeling. We settled in nicely. However. The beds (all of them) have seen their day. Thankfully my fiance and I brought our airbed. Definitely should focus on comfort of guests. There was a leak in the propane tank hose. (Unusable. But we are die hard campers and enjoyed the fire pit to cook on.) The lint trap in the dryer has not been emptied in years. It could have started a fire eventually. The light switches barely worked and were completely miswired. The extras were nice. The kcups were great! The house was nice.
It’s a good place the only problem there was is, the grill was not working properly and when we arrived it smelled a little like humidity but besides that it’s a good place to rest
Good experience
Overall we enjoyed the weekend. The queen bed was very firm. There were plenty of supplies, including spices, towels,TP, cleaning products. Lack of pots and pans. The pics made it look much bigger. The outside fire pit area was cool.
Looks are deceiving! While the property accommodates several people and close to lake/beaches and all that Mt Pocono has to offer, the home was dirty. Not sure sheets were changed on beds, floor still had dog prints and tacky, not mopped. Frying pans looked like they were purchased from a yard sale, teflon completely worn off. Furniture was wet, carpet was not vacuumed. I could go on and on. For the price - I could have stayed at a hotel cheaper and ate all my meals out. I have contacted EVOLVE and am still waiting on them to get back to me. We came home a day early because we had enough. Have pictures of the filth!
Upon arriving at the house a 1/2 hour early we found a teenager cleaning. We waited outside and it wasn't long until D arrived and said - you are early. We waited patiently as they finished up their supposed cleaning. D was kind enough to show me around and it smelled heavily of Chlorox which I appreciate. Once we were able to go in, the couches were wet, the carpet had white dog hair on it and visibly it was not vacuumed. A smal dirt devil broom vac was in the closet. How the hell is that going to vacuum up dog hair? I tried it and it didn't work. A broom would of worked better than that. The sun coming in the front windows showed where a dog had been licking the window or wiping its nose, filthy. Wood floors were never mopped as I took one of my chlorox wipes and wiped a small area only to find it black/dirt. I'm not so sure that the bed linens were changed as they did not smell fresh. They tried to make the noisy air conditioner in the kitchen right by calling and replacing a day later. When the gentleman took the air out, water spilled everywhere which he half assed cleaned up with a dirty mop and left plastic on the floor behind the trash can. Taped the unit outside and since it wasn't a full size for the window my husband had to stuff wash cloths to stop air/bugs from coming in. My husband also removed the air conditioner filter and it was full of lint/dirt. I have pictures of all of our findings. Taped blender on top of the water cooler, the pots and pans were barely functional as the teflon was worn off of them. I wonder if the owner, Isaac knows how his home is being taken care of?! We left Friday morning but paid thru Saturday - had enough! I am still waiting on a call back from Evolve. I could have stayed at the Best Western down the road for 1/2 the price. Obviously I am not happy and this home should not be rented in Arrowhead Lake in the condition it is.
Property was stinky!! Everything in there was damp because of the 2 inch gap in window thats not sealed around the ac unit! Literally had a white worm that came out of the couch! The a/c unit is so horribly loud no one could sleep or even hear the tv, needs to be replaced! The master bedroom bed was like laying on a rock!!! This property needs some attention before it gets rented again! Nice property! Nice area but house is stinky, loud, uncomfortable to sleep in beds!!! Again this property needs attention!!!
