Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Lackawanna County

We had a wonderful, relaxing stay in this very beautiful home. The gate security/form that had to be filled out in advance with guest names was a bit intimidating. But it is a private community, so I understood the need for this. It did feel very safe considering the security guards were tracking who arrived 24/7. The house was immaculately clean, and I did appreciate that. Overall, I would stay there again, Aleksey and Julia were phenomenal with communication and very helpful with any questions we had. The house had many lovely accommodations - the heated floors and hot tub being my favorite!

I felt at home and was able to enjoy all the amenities listed. The place was just as described and the photos are accurate. It is in a great area close to other attractions. The host was also very friendly and responsive. I would definitely recommend and plan to visit again.

Ian has been more than accommodating for my family and I. He responded immediately was super helpful when we had questions or concerns and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. The house was absolutely beautiful. The hot tub was a highlight of our stay. The game room was spacious and had everything you could have asked for. There is a bathroom in each level with showers which was super nice and convenient. The house had fully equipped kitchen which was spotless. The grill was squeaky clean which was very nice. Overall the communication with Ian was extremely easy. He was so helpful and nice. He allowed us to check out late and was more than accommodating. Definitely highly recommend!!

This home is AMAZING! Patrick is a fabulous host and communication was top notch. We rented the home for a girls weekend and all 7 of us could not get over how perfect the home was. We all had our own space (naps were enjoyed) . My dog was the happiest I had seen him in awhile! The kitchen had everything we needed to cook an entire meal. Plus side Insta Cart delivers so no need to even leave the house or pack food. If I could rate this property 100 stars I definitely would.

Could not recommend this stay more! I booked for my family for Christmas (~11 people total), and we had more than enough space to go around. The area was serene, the house immediately felt like a home and was easy to settle into (well-equipped for all our needs, warm given the snow, plenty of DVDs and board games), etc. For anyone considering staying in the Poconos in the winter, this is an incredible choice! For anyone staying in the summer - I have no comment, but given the furnishings and vibes, this would be my first pick for a summer lake trip.

Can’t say enough about this place and Yoel. Amazing host who fit us in last minute. It absolutely saved our trip and will stay with him again!

Cute house a lot of room

it was the perfect blend of comfort and luxury. Every room was beautifully decorated, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The kitchen was fully equipped, making it easy to prepare meals and enjoy them on the spacious deck while soaking in the serene surroundings. What truly made our stay unforgettable was our host, Macarena. From our first interaction, she was incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring that we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. She provided excellent local recommendations for activities and dining, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about making our experience memorable.

Host was amazing, super sweet and helpful. We arrived on valentine’s day to a sweet little gift. The home was cozy and welcoming. I would for sure stay here again. Thank you so much for having us!

As a fan of The Office, this is the place to stay in! I loved every little detail of the decorations. The place is extra clean and quiet, we felt safe in the area. Thanks again, Elizabeth is a great host!

My girlfriend and I liked the house as soon as we saw the picture. Upon arrival, there was plenty of parking and we were able to use the driveway to unload our belongings. Rob’s instructions were great. The apt was funky-cute, clean and quiet. Close to everything! Good choice for 1 or 2 people.

This cozy nook in old forge PA was a fantastic little one bedroom that had a well stocked kitchen, modern amenities, and was really well located for our wedding activities in the Scranton area. Would totally recommend staying

We had a longer-term stay at Elizabeth and Marshal’s property and couldn’t have asked for better hosts! The apartment was spotless with great decor, Elizabeth and Marshal were helpful and responsive every step of the way, and we had lovely views of the surrounding mountains. Even parking was a breeze. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway in the area.

Amazing location and value. Yes, it’s very simple/no frills but offers everything you need at a good price for an entire unit. There aren’t a lot of decorations but we didn’t mind as everything was comfortable. Bathroom is very nice. Everything was very clean and John was super responsive to all our needs. Would highly recommend for someone that wants a nice, simple place to stay for less than $70 a night! Unit itself is a 5 min drive from downtown and is in a residential area. Plenty of parking on street. 1 block away from Zummo’s cafe and near Cooper’s Seafood House

Adams place was better than described even. We never struggled even finding parking. The place was super comfortable and centrally located to the area, and made us feel at home.

The apartment was great! It really felt like home, We enjoyed our time staying in Scranton . Everything was clean and spotless Esther was super nice we will definitely book with her again in the future:)

My family and I rented Jonathan's place as a long-term rental during ski season. We wanted to be close to Big Boulder given our involvement in the race program and the place could not have been more conveniently located (it was also great being able to walk to Boulder View Tavern for apres ski!). The unit was just like it was described, and Jonathan was always incredibly responsive if we ever needed anything. This place became our "home away from home" for ski season and we were truly sad to pack up on our last day. Highly recommend both this unit and Jonathan (I believe he has other properties) to anyone considering a stay in the Poconos. Fantastic experience and absolutely wonderful host!!

Jackie's condo is spacious and welcoming. Beautiful lakefront property, minutes from Big Boulder. Close to all the local restaurants. Layout is larger than it appears on the listing. Felt right at home!

Paul was a great host! Me and my girlfriend were staying here doing a little road trip for her birthday from Connecticut! The space was so clean and comfortable for the both of us! We both loved it and would definitely recommend staying here if you’re ever in the Scranton area! I would definitely come back!!

We really enjoyed our stay. The place was very clean and comfortable with great views

This is our 3rd year staying at the house for our family's winter getaway. The location is absolutely perfect and the view is just breathtaking. The house is very clean and well stocked with everything we need. The communication prior and during our stay was on point, responsive and super helpful. We can't wait for next year! Thank you again for hosting!

We had a fantastic time at Amy’s place. It was exactly as described, and was a wonderfully decorated and warm apartment with beautiful views. Thank you Amy!

We stayed at Sharon’s for a weekend of skiing. Sharon’s ski condo was absolutely lovely. It was clean and neat. It was decorated so nice and felt so cozy! The views of the lake and mountain were beautiful. It was a very peaceful. We absolutely loved it. The location was great for skiing at big boulder. Sharon was a the best host as communication was excellent and Sharon was so friendly. She allowed us to check out a little later in the date of our departure. There was tons of information on all local places etc and a guest handbook with any/all information you would need. We will absolutely be back! Thank you Sharon for sharing your ski condo with our family

Chelsea’s place was nice and cozy! I especially loved the real plants, faux fur heavy bedding, an assortment of different pillows, and the giant love sac bean bag. Chelsea was very nice and responsive and offered a free late checkout to wait out an ice storm. Host made sure walkways were cleared and ice melt was put down before checkout, which shows how much they care about their guests and their property. Parking was very easy and in front of the unit, which made it very helpful to carry in our belongings. I felt very safe and secure at this location. Thanks for a great stay Chelsea!
