We Stayed at Paradise Stream from 8/22/16 until 8/...

We Stayed at Paradise Stream from 8/22/16 until 8/26/16. We Booked this trip very skeptical threw Groupon with all of the mixed reviews, like most people looking and reading. But let me tell you, We Could not have been any happier with the entire stay. We have 4 children and only get away NEVER, so this was really important for us. We Stayed in 2 of the 5 rooms they offer, The Lakeside Villa and The Garden of Eden Apple Suite. Both were beyond Beautiful and Clean! We booked the Room only option, as we are Big-time Foodies (I Cater and Bake) and we are not for being disappointed when it comes to our food. We could not risk that as an extra expense if the resort food was bad, so we cannot speak on the Breakfast and Dinner option they offer (FYI- Other couples (plural) also staying at the Paradise Stream complained the food wasn t worth the price, not horrible but nothing to be excited about(again we can't speak on this, just passing the word from fellow guest as well) and wished they would have done what we did (eat locally!!)), but we did order from Spooner s Little cafe/restaurant (quick food) which was really Good! Their Hot wings were awesome and fries were regular fries. My husband also had a turkey burger, which he says was perfect (he is just as picky with food as me). Also The Bird of Paradise Drink in the Pineapple was very good by the outdoor pool Tikki bar and worth the $15 in my opinion. (Coming from a huge cost cutter)
We had the opportunity to visit all three of the Cove Haven Resorts with Key Around Access as guest there (Paradise Stream (where we stayed), Pocono Palace, and Cove Haven) being that we drove down from Upstate NY and was going to be there for 5 days. We also ate locally (The Pioneer Diner, Chinese food, Guy Fieri Restaurant @ Mount Airy Casino, and other hot and cold foods from the wide variety of foods in the deli section at Shoprite and got little things to put in the microwave to heat up in the arcade room to bring back to our room. At Paradise Stream (where we stayed): Check in/out was a smooth process both times (we had to do it twice since we had 2 rooms) Room 1: The Lakeside Villa-Room # 217- We only stayed the 1st night in this room and it was amazing. The mirror over the Bed, the double headed shower for 2, the double vanity sink (his and hers), 2 flat screen TV s, The Big Comfy King sized bed, the star lights over the heart shaped Jacuzzi, the fire place in the sitting room area, and the Balcony overlooking the lake, and at night it looks really pretty looking at all the other villas around. This had us really excited and set the Bar high for the next room. Room 2: The Garden of Eden Apple Suite- Room # 341- This room was everything we expected and more. The Pictures on the website did not do any justice. There was a strong chlorine smell in the room, but, DUH! There is a private pool in there, it is a private room, no windows, closed off space, and it was not unbearable, just noticeable. Nothing that a few scented candles from Walmart or Dollar Tree (down the road) couldn t fix and added extra romance to the room anyway. The sitting room area had a flat screen TV and a heart shaped Jacuzzi located there. Very relaxing to watch a little kid free TV in the Jacuzzi. The round bed looks awkward but is really comfortable and made it hard to want to get out of it. There was also another flat screen TV in the Bedroom and a Very Romantic fireplace too. The private pool was great we used it a lot as well as the sauna. The Bathroom was cool with another double his and her Vanity, although I think the shower was really small as a one-person shower, it would have been perfect to put a shower like the lakeside villa has into the Garden of Eden suite to have that intimate showering experience like we had in the lakeside villa. Also putting a mirror over the bed in the Garden of Eden Suite would have made it even more perfect. Can't wait to see the upgrades after October! Looking forward to going Back! Use the Key around access to enjoy the full experience, We did and Loved it!!!
