Great girls’ weekend place.

Lovely girls weekends. Staff was attentive, personable and very capable. Rooms/bed/bath were all well appointed and most comfortable. Common areas were also comfortable coffee/tea was always available. View of the lake was perfect. Only slight complaint was parking was a challenge over the weekend but there was a wedding on site and staff immediately moved a personal vehicle so we could park near our room.

The staff at Silver Birches is very helpful and accommodating. Our room was newly renovated, though the bright red furniture was not appealing to me. Nor was the extreme smell of FEBREEZE upon entering the room. We were on the bottom floor of an older 2 story building, maybe without much to block sound between floors? - but you could hear all of the 'movement' from above. Overall, not a bad stay. priced well for off-season, new interior, clean, very accommodating staff, beautiful Lake Wallenpaupack.

Silver Birches is a small, historic lake resort on Lake Wallenpaupack, not far from Hawley, PA. The location and view were terrific. Our room was clean, and the bed was very comfortable. We enjoyed the gas fireplace and chairs in our suite and the view from our balcony. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The only negative was that the furniture and walls had a few bumps and bruises.

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.
