We have exchanged into this 2 bedroom River Village Villa over Easter week. We have family visiting and Shawnee and the Poconos area offers the biggest unit closest to NYC area. Our home in Bergen County NJ area is impossible to accommodate 7 adults and 1 young child. This arrangement prove to be great. The drive to the resort is... More

I was a bit nervous about staying at Shawnee River II after reading some of the online reviews, but my experience with the property has once again reinforced my belief that online reviews are always going to be slanted towards the negative. My parnet and I spent three days here in early April, and were really impressed with the facilities... More

I was pleasantly surprised and relieved when we arrived. we stayed in River Valley II - 159. Check in took about 20 minutes - there was a line, but it moved quickly enough. After reading the other reviews, I came fully prepared to clean and inspect for bedbugs and thankfully i neither had to clean nor worry about bed bugs!... More

Please stay away from this resort! On arrival I was totally disappointed. To get to the unit, my family and I (which totaled 8 of us) had to walk up so many stairs. Since I'm pregnant, I knew this was going to be an issue. Once inside the unit we had to walk up more stairs. In addition to me... More

After reading other reviews, I wasn't expecting much. Surprisingly it was way better than I was expecting. We stayed in a 2BR and it's enough for our family of five. It has a full kitchen with most of the utensils to cook a nice meal. Flat Coby TV panel in living room & master BR with HDMI connections. A little... More

Fine place to stay, just know that it was probably built in the 1980's. It kind of reminds me of a ski cabin. But, it wasn't bad! You cannot go in expecting everything to be updated and modern. Again, it's an older cabin, but everything worked just fine. I thought it was a good location, right on a river. I... More

Must say i was so leary about staying after reading so many negative reviews, well we were pleasantly surprised, i have 5 kids between 18-28, we all came and went at differnt times yet overlapping. Had a wonderful time, the place was clean roomy, beds comfortable, had all you need in the kitchen, plus a dishwasher and w/d. 2.5 baths,... More

Our friends were supposed to spend a week with their children, but something didn't work out, and they invited me and my husband to stay with them last Saturday and Sunday. After reading reviews I was expecting something old, dirty and horrible. Believe me, it was nice, pretty clean, warm unit. The only sad thing was the weather. It was... More
