Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.
The house was not clean; the floors were covered with TONS of hair, dried up food, and clumps of dirt. To his credit the owner sent out a cleaning person, but I was still cleaning up hair and dirt the whole week. The Saw Creek community is going through a rough patch, and they were seriously understaffed. The on site restaurant was turning people away each night when they were not even half full because they had only one cook and one waiter. The staffing problems often caused a back log at the gates to enter the property causing long lines. The only thing that saved the vacation was the location. The Poconos are beautiful.

Fantastic, large home
Absolutely lovely home. We enjoyed grilling out back, big meals at the dining room table and soaks in the hot tub. Beds are comfortable. Lots of nooks and couches for lounging, reading, board games, puzzles, etc. Backyard has multiple decks with lounge chairs, a grill and picnic table. We enjoyed sitting out there with a book and listening to the babbling brook that runs through the backyard. We loved the Mill Pond for swimming and its lovely beach. Short drive to great hikes and Bushkill Falls. I look forward to coming back.

Excellent pet-friendly family mountain get-away!!
This mountain home was perfect for our whole family, children, grandchildren and family dog. Bedrooms and bathrooms on all three floors was extremely accommodating, as well as the open living room/dining room/kitchen space. The decks and wooded backyard was great and we especially loved the sound of the creek running through while the fire pit burned nearby. It was very relaxing and peaceful. The sunken hot tub ended the day perfectly! The location made it possible for us to visit Bushkill Falls, which was beautiful. Brian, the owner, was available for all our questions. Given the opportunity, we'd visit again!

SO glad we could be your hosts this fall. A great time to be in the poconos is when the weather is getting chilly and you can enjoy the leaves and fresh air.
We're so glad the whole family fit! Plenty for everyone to keep busy.
Thank you for staying with us

Beautiful Area
Bushkill is beautiful and the folks there are very friendly. Our older kids loved the area, and the stream that runs in the backyard. The kitchen is updated and modern, but most of the house retains its 1990 vibe (and musty smell from carpeting). We didn't stay more than one night because the railings on deck and in house were wide enough for our 2 year old to fall right through, so not really 'kid-friendly' for that age. Other than those things, Poconos are great!

Thank you for the review Janet, rained out weekends aren't always fun, were glad you made the most of your stay.
There are plenty of games and movies for you to enjoy as well as some indoor activities in the nearby area if you needed to venture out.
Would love to have you back again for a SUNNY summer stay!

Family reunion
Lots of room for the family to enjoy the beautiful Poconos. We all enjoyed the hot tub especially since we experienced several days of rain. All around, a great vacation.

Thank you so much! What a great review for what we know was an unfortunate rainstorm weekend. Plenty of movies and games to keep you occupied, glad you were still able to enjoy. There are also local attractions that are indoors incase you needed to get out and explore the area.
We would love to have you back for a SUNNY stay next summer!

Beautiful and relaxing
House was as we had hoped. Very nice, clean and in a great quiet area. The brook in the back yard is very relaxing. Amenities were easily accessible and fun. Hosts were extremely helpful throughout the booking process as well. Would stay again.

Mark, we're so glad you could enjoy the weather warming up by being outside so much! The back yard is perfect for relaxing and entertaining. We love the sound and sights of the brook and woodlands behind the house.
We're hoping you come back to stay with us soon, upgrades and additions are coming soon!

Very relaxing house
We rented The Bushkil house for 5- night getaway from our crazy lives and it was exactly the vacation we needed. The place was exactly like the pictures. The owner Brian A. was very responsive to all of my questions, including the paperwork. The house was clean and we were happy to see that everything was clean and organized, with clean sheets and towels. I had my husband and 3 kids with me, they all enjoyed the stay. I would definitely recommend staying here and I hope to return for a repeat stay in the near future!
