Summer trip
It was a great week. Location was great, can’t get any better than directly on the water. Plenty of activities for the kids and safe right out by the dock. The only complaint would be that the house could have been cleaner and pictures online are outdated.

AMAZING rental on the lake!!
Our large group stayed at this rental for Labor Day weekend and had the greatest time!! It was very accommodating to our needs- our favorite part was the new dock, we spent our entire time out there. The views were 10/10. We also enjoyed grilling on the new grill!! We have no complaints and will definitely be coming back in the future! :)

Incredible location and great for family
Overall, this was an amazing property! Great location on Lake Harmony. Plenty of space for everyone, without being on top of each other. And the waterfront deck and dock were perfect for all the water toys to be enjoyed. The only negatives would be the overall cleanliness of the property, oven and grill when we arrived and the kitchen pots and pans were in deplorable shape. They really need to be replaced as they are "non stick" and they have several deep scratches in them which is dangerous to the health of those using them. Other than that, it is a great place to stay and play! My family and I had the best vacation and Chalet Ripple was a big part of that! We will definitely be back in 2024!

Family Get-Together
We stayed at the Chalet Ripple this past weekend and we had a good time. The place was cozy and had almost all the necessary belongings you would need for a getaway. The place had 5 rooms and 3.5 bathrooms. It had enough rooms to fit everyone in my family. The bedroom on the lower level only had 2 bunk beds only suited for small children and definitely not adults. I would suggest for the bed in the bedroom by kitchen to be changed- it made so much noises expecially with movement. The whole open concept ( kitchen, dining room and living room) on the upper level and living space on the lower level was great. We had enough space to roam around and not feel crowded in especially on the day we stay in because the weather did not fully cooperate. I loved watching the sunrise and sunset with the view of the lake. We brought food to cook and grill for the whole stay. I would only suggest for the grill to be cleaned between guests because it needs a deep cleaning. The patio and deck area was my favorite because it had the full view of the lake. The kids enjoyed their stay because they were able to use the SUPs and paddle boats provided, used the firepit at night for their smores, and played some of the games from the place. We all had a great time!

Needs Maintenance
The location was great. However house not much. Could not use oven at all so caked with grease it smoked. Outside grill was just as bad had to clean out and inside before could even use as backup for stove. Spider webs outside on all the windows and on the upper porch. Deck was rough/splintering and needs fixing. Washer broke the third day. No repair was done by the time we left. Outside the way going to lake had broken and crumbling concrete not safe. Both tubs had no anti-slip on bottoms very slippery. Kitchen lower cabinets dirty. Good thing I brought a fe pans. On the upside there were plenty of dishes and flatware. This could be a really beautiful location all around if some maintenance was done as house itself is comfortable. Also the garbage cans need to be enclosed somehow as the morning we left we believe bears got into two that had stuff in them and it was all over the yard that we had to clean up. Cans too high for anything else. Most of these items are just maintenance.

Father’s Day Weekend/Bachelor Party
We stayed with dad, his best friend, 6 brothers, and just over a handful of cousins/friends. The location is great - right on the water. There is great space for corn hole, bocce ball, any type of outdoor game. The kayaks and paddle boards are right there for use. The new deck just built on the water is awesome. You can’t beat the atmosphere of being right on the water for the price. It is also walking distance to the bars. About 5 minutes. I highly recommend for location in the community, especially being right on the water.

1) Lower bedrooms were not clean and matress were dirty with stains. 2) Beds are noisy, meaning when you move it make a lot of noise. Suggestion: Change the whole beddings with better ones this will makes the renter fully satisfied. Location is excellent !!!

Great Family Vacation
We absolutely loved our stay in this home in Lake Harmony. Our group included my husband and myself and our four grown children and their families. All included we were a group of 14 people and two dogs. The home itself is even nicer than the photos. There was plenty of room for everyone and we did not feel crowded at all. We spent lots of time on the upper deck watching the boats and jet skis go by and the lower deck was the perfect spot to escape to with a book. The dock by the water is great for swimming off of and there a plenty of comfortable chairs down there as well. The community seemed very safe and we enjoyed walking the dogs and seeing all of the sights. We all agreed that we would love to come back for another stay.

GREAT FAMILY VACATION
OUR FAMILY OF 8 AND OUR DOG HAD A GREAT WEEK OF VACATION. WE LOVED BEING SO CLOSE TO THE WATER, WITH FISHING, KAYAKING, PADDLEBOARDING, AND JUST HANGING OUT ON THE BEAUTIFUL NEW DOCK EVERY DAY. WE EXPLORED HAWK FALLS AND POCONO SPEEDWAY DURING OUR TRIP. WE CAUGHT FISH BOTH FROM THE KAYAKS AND RIGHT OFF THE DOCK. THE YARD IS LARGE AND LEVEL, A GREAT PLACE FOR CORNHOLE AND SPIKEBALL. THE FIREPIT IS THE PERFECT PLACE TO RELAX AT NIGHT WITH A FEW MOUNTAIN PIES AND SMORES. THE FIRE TABLE ON THE DECK IS ANOTHER PERFECT PLACE TO SIT AND RELAX IN THE EVENING. PREVIOUS RENTERS LEFT THE GRILL AND THE OVEN A BIT OF MESS, THE WATER PRESSURE IS A BIT LOW IN THE SHOWERS, AND THE SLIDING DOORS ARE HARD TO OPEN/CLOSE. FYI, THE KITCHEN IS WELL STOCKED, BUT THERE IS NO COFFEE POT, ONLY A KEURIG. THE AC IS ONLY ON THE MAIN FLOOR SO DOWNSTAIRS CAN GET A BIT STUFFY, BUT THERE ARE FANS. OTHER THAN THOSE FEW MINOR THINGS WE REALLY ENJOYED OUR STAY AT CHALET RIPPLE ON LAKE HARMONY. THE AREA IS BEAUTIFUL AND WE APPRECIATED BEING ON THE QUIETER SIDE OF THE LAKE. THE LAKE ITSELF IS QUITE BUSY WITH SKIERS/TUBERS, BOATS, AND WAVERUNNERS, BUT WE WERE STILL ABLE TO ENJOY THE 2 PADDLEBOARDS AND THE KAYAKS. THANKS AGAIN, A GREAT FAMILY VACATION!!!
