Summary: Janina made everything easy, she is the personification of an easy button- you ask and she provides clear answers. The game room was so much fun. The weather was not very cooperative so some of our adventure plans were modified. We did get to do some hiking and fishing, but it’s still early in the season. Her home is a perfect launch pad to adventure and has ample activities for the whole family! Thank you so much, Janina for the amazing get away!

Summary: Our family was looking for a place to be together for the holidays that allowed us to unplug and share our time together. We got exactly that! The snow and chilly temperatures only made the home more cozy and feeling like “Christmas” with decorations to boot. Our host Janina, thought of every thing we could have needed and even left us a welcoming gift. The home had every appliance and kitchen gadget needed to cook our meals and the game room was a fun added benefit! We will definitely be back again to enjoy the Lakeview and cozy setting.

Summary: You will love the stay at this wonderful house in the Poconos. It was a perfect location for us so that we could get to where we wanted to go both south to Jim Thorpe, PA, and up north to railriding in Hawley, PA. The area is wonderful for hiking for dogs, and for people, too! The grounds of the house are PERFECT for your four footed friends. Very large yard with direct access to the lake as well as a fenced in yard. Our dogs enjoyed it very, very much and we would definitely stay here again if we visit the Pocono Mountains again. Enjoy your stay in this great place. The house itself is nice as well. All you need for a very comfortable stay.

Summary: Can’t say enough great things about the location of this property! Amazing views from the decks and lots of activities to take advantage of. We love the rec area, dog friendly fenced in yard and the top deck with great views of the lake. Janina thought of everything in the kitchen and we didn’t want for anything while we were there…a great home away from home. Would definitely book this location again, check in and check out are simple and straightforward.

Summary: My family had such a Wonderful time staying at this house! Everything was as described by the friendly owner, Janina. There are fans and air conditioning throughout this home which made our stay very pleasant. The house was very clean with comfortable beds and furniture. Janina was quick to respond back to us with any questions we had. The spacious grounds this cozy home is on are absolutely beautiful! We loved sitting on the two decks while overlooking an entry to the lake surrounded by trees and flowers. The separate fenced in yard was perfect for our two corgis. The best part was watching the deer, a fox and chipmunk from the deck! My daughter was able to work on her computer at the two desks upstairs. The beach on the lake is just perfect! We felt very secure staying in The Briarwood Community. Many thanks to Janina! We look forward to staying here again!
