Family Skication
Our large group had a great time at Green Gables. Communications with our hosts were prompt and efficient. The home is beautiful and was more than enough room for our 20 group. We were able to prepare meals everyday in the kitchen, there was more than enough room especially with 4 people cooking. The table was way bigger than the picture made it seem. We were able to fit a large amount of us during meals and playing games. Our group was skeptical about the bathroom situation, but the 5 bathrooms and half bath were more than enough for our group. So much so the en-suite bathroom stayed private for the couple staying in that room. The game room and theater room kept our kids entertained. Very large and warm space, pool, mini basketball hoop, foosball, darts, tv to hook up their video games and to sing karaoke! Soundproof movie theater, a yoga room for meditation, and a well equipped gym. I had a chance to walk the property and it is beautiful! The waterfall and pond were relaxing, even in the cold. The kids were even able to go sledding, which they enjoyed very much. The home is well taken care of, clean and attention was paid to every detail, from the signs blending into the decor, non obtrusive, but also letting us know how to work everything and where everything was located. Each room had different names and the decor match perfectly, from the blinds to the bedding, the art and vintage decor. We had a lovely time and cannot wait to go back!.

Great Stay
We had the most amazing stay at Green Gables Estate while celebrating my moms 80th birthday with family! The home was not only clean and beautifully decorated but also spacious enough to accommodate our entire group comfortably. The thoughtful touches throughout the property made it feel like a home away from home.The kitchen was well-equipped, however on the small size for such a large home. The outdoor space was great unfortunately the weather was to cold to fully enjoy all the outdoor space had to offerEveryone, from the youngest to the oldest, had a wonderful time, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better place to create such meaningful memories. Thank you, [Green Gables Estate, for helping make this milestone birthday celebration absolutely perfect. We can’t wait to return!”

Family Christmas
Our family has been traveling to the Poconos every December to cut down our Christmas trees for the past 45 years. As our family grew we began renting houses and hit the jackpot when we found Green Gables. The home and property is absolutely breathtaking. We felt like we stepped into a Hallmark movie. The owners couldn’t have been kinder and more accommodating. They had the entire property decorated for us and we had the best time discovering all the little details they added to the home. There is so much to do that you never have to leave the property. The kids loved the game room and all of the outdoor activities even though it was winter. The property is close to a variety of restaurants and stores. We already booked again for next year :)

Great hosts, great place
This was a really nice stay. The home and grounds are fantastic, but what really sets it apart is the hosts. Every little detail has been thought of, anything you might want has been provided for you. Every drawer and cabinet is clearly labeled so everything is easy to find. Numerous countertop kitchen appliances available: coffee pots, slow cookers, blenders, toasters, more. You will want for nothing at this place. Furniture matches home fantastically. The game room in particular was a great source of entertainment for our group. All of our 26-person party agreed this was a great experience.

Beautiful property with so much to do!
The house and property are as beautiful as pictured. It is well taken care of and there is so much to do without leaving the property. We played pickle ball, went on hikes, golfed and played pool. The owners put a lot of time into making sure everything that you need is there! My group cant wait to go again next year!

lovely stay at a gorgeous property
The place offers a variety of outdoor activities that truly set it apart. We had access to a heated pool, volleyball and tennis courts, pickleball, a small mini-golf course, and a jet hot tub. These amenities provided endless entertainment and fun for everyone in our group. *Pros:* *Outdoor Activities:* The highlight of our stay was definitely the outdoor amenities. The heated pool was perfect for both day and evening swims. The courts for volleyball, tennis, and pickleball were well-maintained and provided great opportunities for some friendly competition. The mini-golf course, though small, was a delightful addition. After a day of activities, relaxing in the jet hot tub was a treat. Cons: *Small Bedrooms:* The bedrooms were a bit on the smaller side. While they were comfortable, they didn't offer much space for luggage or moving around. *Bathroom Situation:* There were not enough bathrooms to accommodate our large group, and some of them did not have a standing shower, which was a bit inconvenient. *Living/Sitting Area:* The living area was not large enough to comfortably fit all 20+ guests at once. It would have been nice to have a bigger space for everyone to gather together. *Kitchen Size: The kitchen was small, which made it challenging to prepare meals for a large group. We managed, but it required some coordination and patience. *Lack
