Mike the host was wonderful & very accommodating from the start! He even asked what time we would arrive so he could turn on the heat ahead of time, which made such a difference! The home was very cozy & had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. I was also very happy that I was able to bring my service dog without any issues. He kindly allowed us a late checkout with a fee, but it was absolutely worth it!!! We truly didn’t want to leave, it was a wonderful stay! Would totally come back !

We had a great time here. The beds were comfortable, the lakes were perfect, and everyone was so nice. I definetly recommend Beach one which is within walking distance. There were 2 playgrounds and a concession stand there as well. We were a short drive from Lego land and it was just an hour to Newark from where we took the train to NYC. Would love to stay here again.

Good weekend getaway with the dogs

For the dogs: our dogs enjoyed the big fenced-in backyard. There's also a HUGE fenced-in dog run a few minutes drive away. For the humans: My wife and I enjoyed the gaming options (Xbox, Playstation, and an arcade machine). There's a nice little town a few minutes drive away, with a supermarket, CVS, and decent coffee and food options.

Great place to stay

I took my wife, 2 tweens, and our lab for a weekend ski trip and stayed at the cottage. Perfect size for us, big fenced-in backyard for our dog to roam around worry-free, and only minutes to the slopes. Owner was very responsive to an issue with the sheets which were resolved promptly.

The WORST VRBO we have stayed in. We knew it was going to be old from the photos. The reason we chose it was the Super Mario Bros arcade game advertised as traditional coin op arcade. Any unit I have stayed in with a game room disables the coin function. This place expected us to pay and when I brought it to owners attention he was completely dismissive and then showed me he changed the listing so he can continue to nickel and dime kids. The place STUNK. There were ant and roach traps everywhere. They gave off an odor that he tried to cover with gel air fresheners at every turn. We had the windows open the entire time and it was 30 degrees. One bedroom was not possible to sleep in the odor was so strong. We closed the door and didn't use it. We had no control over the thermostat. If we wanted to adjust we needed to text him any hour of the day or night. The laundry was coin operated so if you wanted fresh towels during your stay, you needed to pay for them. Finally, the gaming consoles he advertises are literally bolted to the shelf. The shelf is bolted to the unit and the unit is bolted to the floor. When we arrived the playstation was unplugged from back of console and we couldn't move it to plug it back it. His response was "I hope you get it to work." The place was so dark and smelly it was disgusting. There are label maker notes on everything from the furniture to the floors so the place feels more like a prison than a getaway you are paying for.

Perfect weekend

My family was down for the Spartan race weekend. The property is in a perfect location for proximity to the mountain, as well as Beaches and playgrounds for the kids. It comfortably fit four adults and two kids, and the fenced yard was great for the dog. Michael is a thoughtful and responsive owner, and we are looking forward to staying again next time we are down.
