    This was a three bedroom rental townhouse. It served our needs perfectly. It is fairly new, well appointed, and had the location we needed. We had four in our group and it definitely beat a couple hotels rooms, both in comfort and price. We loved the faux German village architecture it is a part of. Hopefully the vision of the German market and more retail shops will one day take hold. I would highly recommend this rental to others.

    Absolutely beautiful home and great placement for our wedding at the IronSpire Complex. Had some problems with the fireplace and the response was a little short which didn't sit right with us. Otherwise a great home and location.

    The home was so cute and spacious, provided everything we needed. We were able to park 2 cars, the space was tight but worked perfectly. We were there for our daughter’s wedding at Iron Spire and this place was so close making it very convenient. Would definitely stay again!

    Great place to stay. Easy access to many PA adventures from this location. Very clean and nice. Quite a few dishes to use in kitchen. The village is amazing. A little slice of old country in the middle of the city!! Only downfall was there wasn’t an ample amount of paper products and we had to go out to purchase them for use during our stay. But other than that amazing place. Would stay again!

    Great place! Don’t mind the many creaks; she just has a lot to say! Lots of steps too so just be aware if that’s not your thing. We had a great time and it was perfect for us. Super clean and conveniently located to all the places we wanted to visit (Shady Maple, Lancaster, Reading, Strasberg Railroad).

    Visited area to shop antique and thrift stores. Loved the atmosphere in this quaint village right out of Europe. We had dinner at the Village Haus, which was only a 150 ft walk! We felt right at home in the townhome which offers everything you need. Will definitely return!

    I had an excellent time at the Handel Haus. A very peaceful little place that overlooks the village square, giving the best view in the whole village--there's also a neat little balcony you can stand from to take it all in! And if you want to get a bite to eat, you are only seconds away from The Village Haus which is only right across the square. I spent most of my lunches and dinners there and is quite affordable. Nighttime is especially peaceful. The whole square is lit up with lights hanging across from the other houses as well as the old town lamps that are on the frontside of each house. The village is perfectly safe all times of the day and inhabited by very kind people! If you enjoy the simple village-life experience, you'll have a great time here! The inside of the house is rather dated and the floors are easy to creak, but charming and warm nonetheless! All sheets, blankets, and towels are perfectly clean, but I noticed that it gets really dusty under the beds. Also, do keep in mind that the last time I was there, the iron was broken; so do be sure to bring your own just in case it hasn't been replaced yet. I would certainly come back!

    Quaint village. Very much a Bavarian Village. The Octoberfest was outstanding. Many food and drink options. Great entertainment. I hope they continue this event and add others as well. The house overall was very spacious. I do feel the living room furniture needs updating. Plenty of room in the whole house. Great for multiple people. Would be nice to add some outside chairs and benches to sit in along the front in the village square. Overall, I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a nice quiet place to enjoy family and friend time. I will consider this exact home in the future.

    We had a family wedding at the nearby iron spire facility. This was a great location for our family. 3 large bedrooms and a well stocked kitchen. The village has some cute stores and restaurants. You will hear a bit of noise from the shop downstairs during normal business hours. Also there is live music outside on weekend but ones a done by 10:00. Would stay again if in the area .

    It was the perfect meeting spot for old friends who live far apart, and needed a place to simply enjoy each other’s company. It was the perfect amount of space to be together and have some personal space. Having beautiful areas to sit, walk, and shop and live music, right outside your door was the icing on the cake!

    It was wonderful to be able to walk to the wedding venue. The size of the property is great. Communication was very good with host. Nice to have the pub/German beer place right across the square. Parking was super easy. We think the decor could definitely use a refresh. Some footrests were ripped and paint needed touching up. Perhaps a refresh on the linens would be a good idea too. Would also be a good idea to have signs on the downstairs doors as it does get a bit confusing. The host listed this on notes but signs would be helpful. Not a big deal though.

    Stoudtburg Village is just about the cutest place that we have stayed. It is a quiet village with a bonus of shops around the village, and across the road that we walked to. The house itself was perfect for our needs and had everything that we needed in the kitchen. We have stayed at other houses within VRBO and others and have had to go out to buy some of the items that we needed, we didn't have to do that here. My only drawback was that the upstairs bathroom needed some updates, but was still usable without a problem for our long weekend. We would definitely stay here again when in the area.
