Loving the Lake Henry Life…

August 12, 2023 Your very comfortable room accommodations and generous living spaces were exceptional and well-suited for our family. The weather cooperated and was perfect for picture-taking, swimming, boating, sunning, reading, relaxing, and fishing right from your spacious, family-friendly dock. Your basement areas for playing pool and ping-pong were also a welcome break on our one rainy day. Having your washer and dryer there, made planning and packing less stressful and gave us more time to enjoy each others’ company. We utilized the grill, the multitude of pots and pans for the stove, and even baking dishes for our now famous Mac and Cheese and English muffin pizzas. Our meals were especially delicious and hearty, because of your full-sized oven and available seasonings and spices. We had so many enjoyable mornings on the wrap-round deck and evenings in the screened room: playing cards, dining (bug-free!), reconnecting, listening to nature’s sounds, and then feeling the quiet, stillness that only comes from a mountain home, such as yours. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful home with us! We were never ready to leave, but we know we plan to return to your lovely piece of heaven, again, very soon. Thank you again, Rob & Michelle!

Family Time Lake Henry

A true Off the radar Pocono gem. We really enjoyed our 12 days at this roomy cabin by the lake. The grand kids loved exploring the lake, having a campfire and fishing (lots of bluegill!) right off the dock. The owner was responsive and helpful. The adults appreciated the peace and quiet of this bucolic location!

Beautiful, spacious retreat

Our family of five truly enjoyed this wonderful home on Lake Henry! The sleeping accommodations were plentiful. We had choices of many bedrooms and beds so we were able to go to sleep and wake up without disturbing anyone else. The kitchen was stocked with dishes, bowls, pots, pans and every utensil we could possibly need. We spent many days outside enjoying the screened room, deck, and picnic table, with sunsets included. And inside, playing ping pong, pool, and pinochle, too. (We also caught some Olympic highlights with Rob’s help- Thank you!!) We spent countless hours catching lots of sunnies and perch off the dock. We were able to take a couple of trips on the rowboat around the lake, too! Though we were here during some unusually cool days in August, we swam almost everyday. We were even lucky enough to spot a little turtle in the lake that we named Henry! He appears to love leftover Fritos!! We had been long-term Summer residents of Lake Henry at another cottage, but now were very happy to have found Rob and Michelle, and their spectacular home. Thank you for another memory-filled vacation this summer. We look forward to a return trip!

About the host

Hosted by Rob Sheely

Michelle and I (Rob) have been on Lake Henry for the past 28 years. Our girls love the water and the woods. Michelle is a teacher from upstate New York, and I'm currently a pastor from Lansdale, PA with a background in the medical field. We have incredible memories on this lake and would love to have you experience some as well.

Why they chose this property

I love relaxing on the dock as well as having some fun in the lake too. This lake is a great secret. It's small enough that it's not on most people's radar, yet big enough to have a lot of fun tubing and wakeboarding. This lake is so peaceful. There also 1000 acres of state game lands to explore right across the street. You will find many other things to do closely, but we prefer to hang out at the lake!
