This beautiful home is the epitome of luxury and comfort. While the original home is over 100 years old, the property has been recently updated to include a gourmet kitchen, completely remodeled bathrooms and plenty of comfortable furnishings.

The open concept main floor encompasses the kitchen and living area and features a beautiful 2-sided stone fireplace in the center. For additional space and entertainment, the game room includes a 9-foot pool table and a large flat-screen Smart TV.

Cooking is truly a joy in this stunning kitchen, complete with top-of-the-line stainless steel Viking appliances, a farmhouse sink, and generous counter space. Serve buffet-style on the island or family-style at the dining table.

Soak up the sun on the dock or retreat to the sunroom and relax in the shade. The house is located on a hill overlooking the lake providing spectacular views. The lake is located just down the driveway, where you can swim, fish and take out your boat!

-- THE LOCATION --

Harveys Lake is Pennsylvania's largest natural lake, prime for fishing, swimming, boating and even scuba diving! Dine along the shore at waterfront restaurants and relax on the beaches. Park your boat at Grotto Pizza, grab some lunch and fill up your tank!

Pick up artisan cheeses, freshly baked goods, jams, jellies and organic produce at The Lands at Hillside Farms just 15 minutes away.

For more outdoor recreation, Frances Slocum State Park and Frances Slocum Lake are roughly 20 minutes away. There you can explore numerous hiking and mountain biking trails or enjoy a quiet picnic.

Ricketts Glen State Park is 26 minutes away, home to a 94-foot waterfall in the Glens Natural Area, 13,050 scenic acres, a beach and so much more.

Perfect Lake Home
Rented this for a long weekend for family and close friends long overdue getaway. This is the perfect lake house and has more than we could imagine. Jon, the host was very responsive and accommodating, and a pleasure to work with. If you're thinking about renting, don't hesitate. You won't be sorry.

Beautiful, spacious house
This house was exactly as described. It was very clean and nicely furnished. It was a pretty quiet location. We enjoyed the boathouse and swimming right off of the dock. I read that there was no air conditioning and so I hoped that it wouldn't be too hot when we were there, but it was and that's just the way it goes. Maybe some blinds or room-darkening curtains on the front of the house would help keep the house cooler on very hot days.

Loved the house
This house was in a great location with awesome lakefront views while maintaining privacy, which is super rare for a lake property. I loved the historic charm and updates.The fall colors on the lake were incredible and a welcome sight to wake up to. A couple of notes that I did not pick up from the listing: the house is separated from the lake by a road and the boat house is in pretty rough shape, but this house was something special and we would recommend anyone to stay there.

Charming Cottage House
This charming cottage style house has some cute character, with some modern upgrades. However, it is need of repair as many rentals commonly do. The front entry steps are close to collapsing, and the front porch has foundation issues. The whole house shakes if someone is on the porch moving around. We were scared to go out there. Also renters beware this rental has no AC or window treatments for privacy in the bathrooms or bedrooms. You can forget sleeping in while on vacation, the sun will wake you up at the crack of dawn!

Wonderful, spacious and well-appointed home with beautiful views!
We had a wonderful stay in this lovely home! It was extremely clean and well appointed/well-stocked. Photos are very accurate. The owner was extremely responsive and helpful before and during our stay. We were here during colder weather but we can’t wait to return during summer to be able to utilize the sun porch, patio and deck, but it’s a great winter home with cozy fireplaces and great room with bar and games. Truly a great place for a group — we will definitely return!

Very nice accommodations. Comfy beds & beautiful views from master bedroom.
All in all it was very easy renting & a memorable stay. We would rent it again. The driveway was extremely steep but once you reached the house it was great.

Great house
House is a bit hard to find, but once you do, its not a problem. There is a long steep hill at the beginning of the driveway but the house is sitting on top, with an amazing view of the lake. The interior of the house is open and spacey, plenty of room for 10 guest plus. (We had a few friends that needed to stay on the couches one night.) Prepared a big breakfast with all the essentials that the house provided. Plenty of dishes and glasses, pots and pans. Beds were very comfortable, showers were hot and relaxing. Lots of puzzles and board games, a beautiful pool table and speakers in every room to hook up your Bluetooth. We rented the house for a wedding at Friedman Farms and it was a perfect location for pictures and getting ready. Only 10-15 minutes away. (I do not suggest this house if you are getting a limo for the wedding because it will not make it up the driveway!) Jon, one of the owners, was just a text away and we communicated threw out our stay. I did not go to the lake house but my sister in law did. She jumped in the lake from the dock and my son hung out on the raft attached to the dock. The lake house is down that long steep driveway and across the street from the actual house. Not a bad thing... unless you want to be right on the water. Doesn’t take away from it being at a lake house. We did encounter a 3in round wolf spider that I’m sure comes along with any lake house! It was a great experience and the house was perfect for our daughters wedding preparations & just old fashion family time!

Great place, great view :)
We have a 16 foot aluminum john boat that we were able to easily dock on the dock. The boathouse is simple, but has many different sizes of life jackets and a great big tube that we could attach to our boat and pull our two boys :) Which they loved! The house is clean and very nicely decorated. We loved that the linens were provided...less to pack. There were plenty of towels and we even found some beach towels! Lots of places to eat as a family within the house...a beautiful enclosed porch, the eat in kitchen and the table on the patio. Overall, we had a wonderful time and are planning on returning! Thank you for a great vacation!
