Amazing Pocono Fountain House
From the moment we walked into the house, we knew we chose the right place to stay. We all felt comfortable. The house was stocked with all the necessities. The beds were comfy.

Great Stay
The property met all of our needs. We enjoyed the hot tub, had a nice view, and slept well. There were plenty of towels, tv’s, and there were not a lot of people around so we had an enormous amount of privacy. We will look to stay here again and recommend this spot for a nice get away.
