Alot to say and only 1500 characters: * Accommodations assigned to us as Expedia guests were appauling. * Front Office staff refused to change our room after we reported all-night noise from pool equipment & safety lights right next to our "Luxury Suite" & then suddenly found a room when I became less friendly about our bad experience. * Second room in our group also unsatisfactory but Front Office claimed there were no more available rooms & then we observed a vacant room for 2 nights below the room we were moved to. * The property was poorly maintained & deeply understaffed and the staff they did have on duty were all students without anything but the most basic training. No hospitality skills. * The swimming pools were posted as off-limits for 2 of our 3 mornings until almost noon because "there was a problem with the chlorine". The problem was that they put the chlorine into the pool in the morning so of course the levels were too high. * We were made to feel unwelcome when we accidently sat in a cabana at the pool that was only available for $200 extra. Please note: The avg rate we paid was $450/nightx2 rooms x 3 nights which translates to more than $3,000. * Bathroom vents were full of dust/grime & the bathroom shower tile had not been properly cleaned in a long time as there was mildew in the grout. * Guests were freely smoking marijuana around the fire pits that were supposed to be for families & guests to enjoy in the fresh country air. * And on and on...

The Silver Birches Resort is a beautiful sprawling property with an assortment of accommodations. It is directly on Lake Wallenpaupack. The resort fee includes a variety of activities, multiple pools, kayaks, canoes, paddle boards, firepits, etc and breakfast. The breakfast was just ok. More like a "camp" style breakfast. The room was very spacious with a fantastic view of the lake. All the amenities you could think of and more were provided. It's a perfect spot for a family vacation too.

We were staying at one of the off site rooms and we got there earlier than expected. We were just going to wait until 3 to check in but our room was ready way earlier than expected which was a great surprise. The women at the check-in counter were all super sweet and answered any questions we had. The pools were nice and clean. The kayaking is also a great time, and the boy who was in charge of that was also very kind. I’ve stayed with my family at Silver Birches before but this was the first time I went alone with a friend and they made the stay great. Will definitely be back!

The view from my spacious king room was wonderful. I loved the grounds, the pool and hot tub and the firepits. The restaurant is right up the hill, and the registration office was lovely. I plan on going again in August.

It was a very nice stay on a beautiful lakefront property. Good restaurants and hiking are close by. It has everything you need for a quiet get away only two hours from New York City.

Loved coming back after a hike and reading a book on our balcony or down in a chair by the lake. Very relaxing! The nightly sunset champagne toast and fire pits were an added touch. Would definitely return.
