| From the minute we found the chalet we knew this was going to be a great week. Once inside the whole house was picture perfect and so comfortable for us and with the extra bonus of pets being allowed our Lab enjoyed the country air too. Daily we saw deer and wild turkeys, sit and watch in amazement of how close they were to the chalet. Lee was great with directions for seeing the area too. We recommend this chalet to anyone. We will be staying with Lee again for sure. Thanks for making our vacation 2009. |

Dear Lee,
My family and I stayed in this amazingly beautiful home last summer and just scheduled to return again this summer. From the street gazing upon this house we were all so excited to see inside like a bunch of little kids on christmas. The windows definitely make this house even more stunning from inside and outside. I loved the morning sun peering in on us. Seeing the wildilfe walking by all those deer and turkeys. Oh and I can't forget to mention this little chipmunk that hangs out out front under the deck which we fed, very cute! My kids couldnt get over how cool and cute that was. We enjoyed the pool table had tons of fun. And after hours out venturing about that wonderful hot tub felt so good. Nothing like a hot tub in the woods at night while starring into the sky at all those bright stars. And off to bed which where clean and comfy. Lee you were easy to talk to and answered my million questions and guided us to places to visit. It was nice to rent from you and made us want to return this summer. We can't wait. Thank you so much for your hospitality!And building such an amazing home, I am so happy building memories with my family there.
Sincerely, Linda Cioppi |

I surprised my boyfriend with a weekend away from the city at this beautiful chalet, and it was absolutely amazing. Lee was wonderful at communicating with me, answering all my questions speedily and making sure I got exactly what I wanted. I felt like I had my own personal assistant helping me plan a romantic weekend. I absolutely loved the fact that our 2 dogs were welcome. We felt completely at home and relaxed, and we will be back and we have already begun telling all of our friends about this home and Lee. |

| This house was perfect for our 3-day weekend stay. The location is 5 to 10 minutes from everything you'll need --- stores, restaurants, skiing. It is well equipped and maintained. The owner makes the process very easy. He has lots of information to share about the area -- you'll find plenty to do! We look forward to visiting in the summer -- would recommend without hesitation. |

WHAT A COZY PLACE TO STAY. WE HAD WENT THROUGH MAY WEB SITES TO GET THIS LISTING AND WERE VERY HAPPY THAT WE FOUND IT. CENTRALLY LOCATED TO EVERYTHING. WE SKIED JACK FROST/BIG BOULDER, WHICH WAS A SHORT RIDE. GOOD FOOD RIGHT UP THE ROAD AT BELLA MIA, WHICH LEE HAD SUGGESTED. WE WILL DEFINITELY BE RETURNING, MAYBE EVEN IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE. THE PRICE WAS RIGHT, THE LOCATION WAS RIGHT AND THE OWNER VERY NICE. CANNOT GO WRONG WITH THIS RENTAL. WE HAD 7 PEOPLE STAY AND HAD PLENTY OF SPACE. |

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at your beautiful Stephen Chalet. We've rented a cabin from another VRBO owner in the past, but your place surpassed the other rental in size and amenities.
It was great having access to an internet connection. I love taking pictures and took many beautiful photos of deer and wild turkeys.
Thank you for always being available to us whenever I called; even while you were on vacation.
It was a pleasure renting from you and I hope we can rent from you for many years to come.

Lee, The week we spent at your home was the most relaxing that I can remember. My Husband and I have been coming up the Poconos for nearly 10 years for Nascar and this was by far the best accomodations ever. From the Hot Tub to the King Size bed it was wonderful. We didnt want to leave . As a matter of fact I am already checking my schedule for a return visit. Thank you again |

| My friends and I stayed in Lee's BEAUTIFUL home from 2/1 thru 2/6/08. The pictures of it were GORGEOUS, but they DO NOT do this home justice! PRIDE OF OWNERSHIP SHINES THROUGHOUT THIS HOME! There were NO corners cut here! The furnishings and absolute COMFORT of EVERY room were really impressive. We had a BLAST (with our GIANTS fanatic friends) watching the Super Bowl that weekend as well. I would HIGHLY recommend this house TO ANYONE! To be able to say that feels GREAT because our group of friends has been renting homes in this area for over 18 years..and it's nice to REALLY want to return to a particular home! Lee is SO ACCOMMODATING and so professional to deal with as well. Thanks again for everything, Lee! We will be back to visit! |

| This house looks beautiful in the pictures but it is even more breath taking in person. My family and I rented this house from Lee for Christmas and it couldn't have been any better than we expected. From the moment you walk inside you get this warm fuzzy feeling as if you are stepping into your own home, it was very well kept and had all the necessities you could think of, whether your traveling with children or just adults, everything needed is provided. My husband and I have decided to definitely rent from Lee again and recommend his properties to all of our friends. Thanks again Lee :) |

Dear Lee, For the 2nd year, you've impressed us! After years of dealing with realtors and strangers, we've finally found someone we love renting from!! Your homes are beautiful on the outside and immaculate on the inside! You are prompt, personable and accomodating and we will hopefully be renting from you for many years to come. Your Hugo Chalet was gorgeous last year and this home was as well. We can't decide which one we like better. Looking forward to staying at one of your new homes next year. Thanks again and we'll definitely be talking soon, Sue, Lee, Courtney, Jesse and Blaze |

You book my home consistently for 2 weeks at a time, never ask for anything, and leave the house as if no one had stayed there. Thank you so much for washing all my towels. It was not necessary, but I do appreciate the jesture. Your family is welocome back year after year, and ofcourse there will never be a need for you to pay a security deposit again. You also have 1st priority to pick of any 2 weeks in any of my homes for next summer. Thank you again, Lee

Lee, the house was beautiful! it was so comfortable with everything that you could ask for. We frequented the pool and lake that were so close by, and spent a tremendous amount of time in the hot tub and playing pool! We lost count of the amount of deer that came so close to the house and filled our camera. We hope to come back some time and will happily recommend your place to others.

Mr. Prager,
Thank you so much for giving us the opportunity to stay in your lovely chalet. We went out each day to explore the area and found we couldn't wait to get back to the house. It was beautiful inside and out and very clean. Even the dogs were relaxed! They would just lay down by the sliding glass doors and stare outside. They even saw several deer walking right outside the house. I will highly recommend your place to friends and family. Thank you again! Marsha |

Dear Lee, Our family (via Susan DuBosq) rented a long weekend at your house over the Super Bowl weekend. We had a WONDERFUL time and made lots of new memories! The accomodations were superb! I felt like we were staying at a high-end resort and "home" at the same time! Even amidst the subzero temperatures outside, we were warm and cozy inside! Our son also LOVED the small sledding "hill" in the back yard! Keep up the quality accomodations you offer your guests! Thanks again! |

Homeowner Response:
Thank You Staci. You and your family were ideal renters. Promt payment, and excellent communication. I appreciate the high end resort comparison. You will find all of my vacation homes are of that quality and calibar. When I vacation with my family, I always look to stay at as high end a place as possible.(Isn't that what a vacation is all about)! With that in mind, I would never have a place that I own that my family and I would not stay at ourselves. My goal is to exceed people's expectations. I always paint before it needs painting, and fix before it needs to be fixed. You can feel comfortable in knowing that the quality accommodations that you speak of will only improve. You and your family are welcome back any time. Thank You So Much, Lee

Wow, what a wonderful place to get away from it all, yet still have the comforts of home. While researching places to stay in the Pocono’s, two things really attracted us to this house. The first was that it appeared to be new and clean. The second was that pets were allowed. This really meant a lot as we could have a true family vacation and not leave the dogs in the kennel for a week.
When we arrived, the house sure did not disappoint. The first thing we noticed when we walked into the house was how nice and new everything was. It really was "white glove" clean. The layout was open and airy. The furniture was beautiful and comfortable and not the cheep stuff you sometimes find in some of the other rentals. The Jacuzzi was a definite highlight as you could clearly see thousands of stars while soaking in it at night.
In the daytime, there was plenty to do. On our morning walks, we always saw deer and wild turkeys. In the afternoons we explored Jim Thorpe or one of the many nearby hiking trails.
We cannot stress enough what a pleasure it was renting from Lee. He was a professional and gracious host and always quick to respond. When we told him we would be bringing our baby, he even offered to provide us with a pack and play.
In short, we would recommend this house for anyone staying in this area.
