Great Vacation/So So Accommodations
We spent a week in October in the beautiful Pocono Mountains and stayed at the Carriage House Country Club, Pocono Manor, PA. I must say the Carriage House is not a “country club” but a dated time-share property. Our first impression was not good—when it took a couple of hours to find our reservation. The facilities include a swimming pool, hot tub, and game room. There is free internet access on a computer in the lobby area, a pricey restaurant on the premises, and a little breakfast café. The place is just old and needs to be remodeled. Our one-bedroom apartment was clean and roomy even though it did not have one comfortable chair – just an uncomfortable loveseat/sofa bed. The kitchenette was well equipped. However, noisy banging double doors in the hallway, thin walls, and inadequate plumbing which allowed for cold showers, did not spell “comfort.”

I have never stayed at the Carriage House in Pocono Manor, so I can’t comment on the accomodations. But I have visited the premises and attended a dinner that was being held there. The grounds were beautiful and the dinner was quite tasty. There is so much to do in the Pocono’s, I guess I wouldn’t be in the room too much anyway.
I am so sorry to hear that the Carriage House did not meet your expectations. All feedback from customers is important. The Carriage House is not a property we own or control so I am forwarding your comment to Travel Advantage Network so they can take the appropriate action. We also are purchasing a very quaint resort in the Poconos. So the next time you travel to PA we would love to WOW you with a home property we are very excited about and proud of. Stay tuned to this blog. Photos will be posted as soon as the real estate closing is completed.
Again, please accept my apologies for the so-so accommodations.
