| The house was the perfect place for a group of friends to spend a weekend. We all had enough space in the house and the deck was great to relax on. Everyone had an great time. Thanks again Tony. |

The house was spacious, cozy and beautiful -really exceeded all our expectations for the weekend. Everyone left happy. I highly recommend renting from Tony and Deb. |

| My large family had a great ski weekend here. Tony was very accomodating and the house had everything we needed. We loved the hot tub and the kitchen/family room had plenty of room for everyone to eat. My sister and her family came from Florda and the bedroom on the left was perfect for her and the two kids. We would rent this house again. Jackie |

| We had a wonderful vacation. My husband, daughters and their boyfriends rented this house for a week. There were 10 of us. We wanted a big house where there was enough room for everyone. This house has so much space. Enough privacy for everyone. Aside from privacy, the house is beatutiful. Everything you may need is provided. The fireplace was exceptional as was the hot tub after skiing. The temperature at the beginning of the week was 0 - 7 degrees with snow. Very scenic, lots of wildlife. Close to the ski slopes and stores. Tony and Deborah were great to work with: really nice people. This is a fantastic vacation house for a group of people to get together. We highly recommend this rental and would rent it again. |

Our first time to the Poconos.
What a trip. We came from Florida and the rest of our family and friends came from Maine - Washington State and
Connecticut.
10 of us, all told, had a fantastic Christmas. The House was so spacious that we weren't on top of one another
even a capacity of 14 would have left so much room.
The Deer roaming outside added to the touch of Christmas along with the snow.
We certainly could not have picked a better Place.
The House was so warm and comfortable ( more so with the fireplace ) even though the wind chill factor outside was minus 25 degrees.
Fantastic time.
Would do it again. |

| We had a very good time and able to spend time will friends as a family. The location is very quite and right from the kids to the elders as we all enjoyed our stay. Facilities are good and well maintained. Specially the Barbeque and the hot tub was great for everyone to enjoy. Moreover there are games for all ages and the internet to keep updated while on vacation. We are sure to plan again to visit the place whenever we have an opportunity. |

| If you're headed to the Poconos.... you have to check out this house and its very reasonable rental rates. This is the second time we've rented this house and we will do it again. The wood stove, hot tub, and the spacious deck are great. The back yard is big enough to have a good game of booce (bring your own if you can). The foosball table could use a "tune up." There are also 2 regrigerators which is perfect for larger crowds. |

First time in the Poconos, came all the way from
Michigan. Well worth it. The house was
conveniently located to many of the things we
wanted to do, including rafting on the Lehigh River,
biking on the Lehigh River Gorge Trail, hiking in
Hickory Run State Park, and shopping at the artsy
shops in Jim Thorpe and the outlet places in
Tannersville. Our children loved the hot tub and
the community pool, and especially enjoyed riding
their bikes around at dusk to see all the deer. A
nice place to stay; would definitely rent here again. |

We were a family of 14 comprised of senior citizens, parents, and young adults. Collectively, we had a fabulous time, so much so, that we are almost afraid to tell other folks that may find our "Shangrila." Among our ranks were business owners, middle school educators, high school principal and vice-principal, a military officer, and an asst. superintendent of schools who all desperately needed an oasis from stress and that's exactly what we got. Tony and Deborah were the consomate hosts and went out of their way to ensure our comfort. We are ready to resign on the dotted line for a return trip. The hot tub alone was worth it all, and the beautiful scenery was spectacular. All of the teachers give this trip an A plus!!
Thanks for everything!!

Dear Tony and Deb,
Thank you so much for letting us stay at your amazing spacious house. Everyone had plenty of room in our company of eleven people. The house has everything anyone ever needs. My favorite things were the fireplace and jacuzzi. I had a wonderful vacation! I would recommend this place to all of my friends, and I will definitely consider renting it again next year.

What an absolutely wonderful house for a family vacation! We loved the spacious living area which gave us all plenty of room to spread out and read our books. Our week in August turned out to be rainy and cool so we had the fireplace going for 3 days and were cozy warm. The kids had a great time going in the hot tub. The deck is great with plenty of room to kick back and enjoy the view. We also had fun feeding the deer from the deck. There’s plenty of deck furniture plus outdoor games (nice bonus).
The house is very clean and well kept and the homeowners are always on call if you have a question. I would highly recommend this house for vacation.

| We would like to thank the Lillos' for providing a very nice, affordable vacation home with all the amenities you could want. There was plenty of room for all of us and the hot tub was used on a daily basis. We enjoyed the beach at the Main Lake and loved watching the many deer that wandered around the area. We had one rainy day and the kids board games that were here came in handy. We would rent again in the future |

Tony and Deb:
This was our first experience renting a home in the Poconos, so we were somewhat anxious about doing all this on line. However, when we walked into the house and went upstairs, we found that it looked just like the pictures on the website. Everything was clean and well maintained. The kitchen was stocked with everything anyone would ever need to prepare meals during their stay. It made our stay quite comfortable, considering we were cooking for 10 high school girls. The accommodations were great.....all the girls were comfortable. They especially loved the hot tub and being able to go out onto the deck at night. We used the grill and prepared a meal for our home and our neighbor's student home, easily feeding 27 total people and never feeling crowded!
Thank you for a wonderful experience. I will recommend your home to anyone wanting to spend time in the Poconos.

I would like to thank Tony Lillo for the unforgettable time that we spent in his rental house. We often rent houses with my friends, but the atmosohere in this 5 bedroom house in the Poconos was more than welcomming.
All 7 people that were in the party had great time all together in the family room and privately as the house is HUGE.
Tony and Debbie forseen everything from the jacuzzi(that was GTREAT HIT after skiing) to the smallest pieces in the FULLY EQUIPPRED KITCHEN.
We will certainly come back.
Again THANK YOU. |

Our family rented this home for this
past Christmas Hoilday. Everything went well,even down to the planning. The owners were very informational and truly kind.They went above and beyond to make our vacation a Christmas to remember. We felt at home as we walked in. The country style living with the cozy fireplace just made our stay even more satisfying.
The warm outdoor HotTub was just the
icing on the cake. It was a very spacious and relaxing way to celebrate the Holidays. I would sincerely recommend this house to anyone who's looking to feel at home away from home.

| First off, it was a pleasure dealing with Tony and Debbie, they were very nice to deal with and everything in the house was great as described. The house was close by to Skirmish as they had stated and the house was able to hold a large group of people comfortably. The location and house were great, wish I had more time off to stay longer. Also the house was very clean! Highly Recommend it and can't wait to go back. |

a copy of my e-mail to Tony:
I wanted to say thank you, the house was everything your wife described on the phone and more.
Usually we don’t travel in such big groups, this time we were 10 people (even 11 for a little while) and the house was so comfortable and accommodating we all wanted to stay for a few extra days.
Thank you for your flexibility with the departure time, we really enjoyed the few extra hours we got on Sunday.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! |

| There were 12 of us that just came back from this house. We were very pleased with the home and it's furnishings. It was cozy and comfortable, stocked with games, videos, and very clean!!!! The property was secluded,making us feel like we were alone in the mountains. Some of the homes in the community were a bit shabby, making us worry about what we were getting in to, but as soon as we saw the property and house, we knew we were in the right place. We recommend the house for a large family or a couple families. Thanks, Tony and Debbie, for being available for any questions and checking in with us to make sure our stay was enjoyable.. Sandy |

| What an amazing place to get away from the city. My friends and I all loved the place. It was a lot bigger than I expected. When we were in the hot tub, we always saw deer wondering around in the backyard. This was my second time doing business with Tony and I plan on contacting him for our next retreat. Thanks. |

This is a GREAT home if you want to get away to a place which makes you feel at home instantly. It has everything you want from a vacation home.
I personally brought a group of 14 college guys on our yearly skiing trip.
The guys loved the place.
The Jaccuzzi ROCKS! (Even in the middle of a snowstorm - really!)
Tony the owner is a pleasure to deal with, a professional, and very accomodating.
I did alot of research on Pocono Vacation homes, and this is actually one of the BEST priced homes available in its class, especially for its centralized location.
WE'll be seeing this place again!
Thanks! |

While the 2 bathrooms were an issue once in a while (especially with little kids), the house was otherwise very comfortable -- even for 13 people! With the weather being lousy that weekend, we still had enough space not to be under each other's feet. |
