Paradise Stream Resort

It is literally the GROSSEST place I’ve ever stayed. I got one of the Diana Oasis room’s with a private pool in my suite. When I checked in one of the first things I did was go to our pool, there was dirt (maintenance had to come clean it and told me they were under staffed) I stepped on an earring from a previous person, then there were ANTS coming out of the wall and into my poolside area!!! Disgusting, and to top it all off there were spikes coming up out of the carpet when I entered into my bathroom and I started bleeding on my foot! On top of it all because I booked it threw a third party site I was refused a refund by Paradise Stream! It was my anniversary and I completely ruined it for me!

Lots of space… love the private pool, sauna and Champagne tower. Romantic room and charming fireplace was a nice touch. Food and service was fantastic. Would visit again.

I came here on a Groupon deal with my boyfriend for a weekend getaway. After reading some reviews I was nervous about coming here and not having a great time. I do agree that this place is outdated compared to the shiny Mount Airy Casino about ½ mile away with a beautiful lake front.
We got the Lakeside Villa — which reminds me of a catacomb but it’s nice to have your own little ‘house’. It has a direct patio to the lake and you can enjoy the view. (it’s beautiful in the morning). I was afraid that the room would have bugs in it based on another Unilocal review but my room was very clean. Outdated yes (since i’m so use to the VIP suite at Atlantic City Hotels) but still very clean.
The food was okay. I mean to serve such a large number of people not everything is perfect. Friday night we had the buffet and I just ate because I was hungry. Saturday it was a 4 course meal, apps were fine, salad needs a little work on, entrée was decent and dessert was excellent! And I love love their breakfast buffets (i’m a sucker for bunch). PS. get the all inclusive option if you can, its worth it.
There is ample amount of activities you can do. They have mini golf course (9 courses), archery, swimming pool, bon fire, shuffle board, bike rentals and a game room and a 15 – 20 min nature trail. I’m pretty sure there are paddle boats for when the season is warmer. As mentioned above, they have a casino near by as well. We pretty much just stayed locally and did the activities that were already provided for us.
Their CXO events were a lot of fun. It definitely helps couples communicate better and you get to know other couples as well.
There is also a Spa onsite where the gift shop is. My boyfriend and I booked a massage and it was a great experience. The mark up for Spa isn’t that high compared to your local spa (maybe around $ 15 higher).
They also have happy hour in their ‘theater night club’. Again, outdated but I think this place is very tailored to older couples. (I’m also willing to bet we were the youngest couple there). Their drinks are amazing and bar food is good.
Overall, it was a good experience. All the staff members were great — Joan (from Gift Shop), our masseuse (Steven and Tara), our CXO (Amari) and even our server (Christoper). They all did a fantastic job.

Please DO NOT waste your time in this place. There is nothing to do, food is below acceptable. Rooms are okay but not worthy!

My wife and I married on October 12, 2015 and had our honeymoon at Paradise Stream via a Groupon deal. By the end of our trip, we regretted even going anywhere for our honeymoon and not waiting until we had saved up enough to go somewhere nicer.
Generally the staff was pretty friendly. The food was fine. The things to do on the grounds were more limited than the other campuses of Cove Haven, but because our stay was meant to be short, we were fine with it. We visited the game room, did some archery and fishing, and borrowed the bikes. A good deal of equipment was broken, and there wasn’t really anywhere to bike to. The game room didn’t have much either.
The big issue was our room. We had the Diana Oasis room which came with a hot tub and a small heated pool. Upon our arrival I noticed a few flies but I figured it was out in the country and this was normal. We killed the few and moved on.
When we tried going into our private pool, there were a few dead bugs. You find that in any pool really, but got out pretty soon after that. The hot tub also had a dead bug. It was our last day and that’s when things really went bad. We woke up to find at least 15 flying ants in our bed and on the mirror behind our bed (see pics). After calling the front desk, we were told to wait 10 minutes. After no one appeared, my wife went to the front desk and came back with the director of housekeeping, Jann. She at first claimed that she didn’t see the bugs but after I pointed them out in the blanket she said that the room needed to be treated. There were definitely undertones of blame as she told us that we should’ve pointed out that there had been bugs. She offered a room upgrade but only until 6 PM that day. We we leaving that day anyway and had plans back at home that night, so it didn’t make sense to pack up to change rooms for a few hours, just to pack up and leave. Plus we simply weren’t comfortable being there anymore (my wife was quite traumatized), so I thought it was best that we go straight home and ask for a refund for that night instead. Jann at first agreed but then said that she couldn’t since it was done through Groupon, so we would have to ask Groupon.
We reached out to Groupon, gave them Jann’s name as the Director of Housekeeping for the reference. We later got a response that the hotel feels they do not have to issue a refund since they offered us another room (that is useless to us). They offered us something we couldn’t use, and feel like they now owe us nothing. After we had to sleep in a bed full of bugs. Thanks…
I would avoid this place.

Stayed there 3 days and 2 nights with my boyfriend. September 28^th-​30^th, 2015. We stayed in the champagne tower. The place is a little dated, but clean. There’s so much to do there! We tried to cram everything into the 2 full days we were there and still had time for romance. I wish we would’ve booked for the whole week. It was our 1 year anniversary of dating. We had so much fun! We went from Monday-​Wednesday, so it wasn’t crowded. The nightly entertainment was awesome. Music, games couples against each other and games with girls against the guys. I just can’t say enough about our experience. We’re already planning another trip to go back there!

Booked the ultimate sweet seduction package. Got to the room and was missing items that were included. Called front desk, got them 3 hrs later. Next day ice bucket (which was included in package) was removed from the room while we were out. Let front desk know and they send another. At check out we were double charged for items in package. Got a refund but not after many questioning and them insinuating theft (not in their part) and no answers from their employees. Do you think ur ice bucket is that great to go through the hassle? I only wanted what I paid for and not be overcharged for things I didn’t. And still no apologies even after realizing a mistake in their part for one of the charges. Worst customer service! ! !

My husband and I visited paradise stream for our honeymoon. I booked this trip through a deal I found on groupon. The only disadvantage to this was that we were not able to charge anything to our room or rent movies because we booked with a Groupon deal.
The Champagne Tower Suite although a bit outdated was very cozy and fun, with a mini heart shaped pool and sauna, a champagne whirlpool tub, and a fire place. The cleaning service and room service was also exceptional.
We did not participate in many of the activities, but we did use the 24 hr arcade. We would have used it more, but the machines kept eating our tokens. If you could just use regular quarters it would have been better. Other than that, the arcade was nice.

Thank you to the staff of Paradise Stream. Because of your refusal to accommodate my boyfriend and I according to the terms on your website, we canceled our reservation, found a charming B&B, went on a nature hike, and visited an abandoned honeymoon resort.
It started when I asked boyfriend to plan a weekend getaway for my birthday. He chose a retreat located in the Poconos, or the former «honeymoon capital of the world.» Looking back, I think the torrential downpour was trying to tell me something as we checked into our private villa overlooking a pond.
The main hall featured [paid] light refreshments before dinner. As we headed into the dining room, the host said we were not on the inclusive meal plan normally standard with the rooms. Because boyfriend had booked through another party, the management refused to comply with the wording listed on their website stating «as a guest of the resort, you will enjoy all inclusive breakfast and dinner.» As the wording was misleading and the management refused to comply, we chose to leave.
We soon found a cute bed and breakfast nearby that was honest. Dinner was one of the best meals I ever feasted upon and breakfast the next day was just as tasty. We spent Sunday hiking through stunning Bushkill Falls.
Did I mention the rust on the outside of the door frame to our villa??? Not exactly a great first impression. On our way home, we stopped at Penn Hills Resort, sadly abandoned since the owner passed in 2009. I couldn’t help but wonder if Paradise Stream is headed toward a similar fate.
p. s. They have since changed the wording on their site.

My wife and i went for 2 nights and 3 days to celebrate our 2^nd anniversary. We arrived Friday at noon, the front entrance was closed cause we believe they are doing some renovations. When we went to check out we asked the receptionist if we could see the room first since we read some bad reviews, she said it was not possible but that we could tell her about any issue, and she also updated us to the champagne tower suit (we booked the garden of Eden suite with groupon).
The suit was old, and kinda dirty in some places so we went back to her and she was happy to give us another one, this time Diana’s oasis, and omg, it was so beautiful, clean and new!
The activities were ok, archery, mini golf, bikes… we didnt like the boat paddling cause the lake was dirty and the dock didnt look so safe.
Food was good, we loved the breakfast, we also went to the nightclub, so cute and live music, the singers are very talented.
The last day we went horse riding, the place is next to the resort and we paid $ 60ish for the both of us, it was like an hour ride, we loved it!
Over all it was a nice experience, honestly i think the website over advertise some things, cause the outdoor activities dont look like the pics and the room we saw first, some buldings and stuff look so old… But we got a great room, we are in love and went in a good mood, we had a very good time so we are going back if we can stay in Diana’s oasis suit or a updated one.
Oh! And the people who works there, all of them are super friendly and hard workers.

I would give it a 5 but 2 doors were kinda broken in my room and also the sauna had some cobwebs inside so that could have been cleaner as well as a flower petal or something in the pool but I loved my stay. I wish I was able to stay longer.
My stay was in the Champagne Tower Suite, I absolutely loved it’s set up and it was a surprise to have a steam shower. I enjoy steam rooms way more than saunas so I was super excited just wish the shower was a bit bigger and had more room to sit and not feel burned by the steam.
I loved the pool and the different levels within the room it was such a fun place to stay. Our champagne we had delivered to the room was absolutely delicious. We had two bottles and I wish I had some to bring home.
Loved the Champagne Tower tub in the room, all the different lighting in the different areas and of course all the mirrors. Bed was amazing as well :)
I would come back, looks a little sketch at first but when you get to the rooms but inside the room the atmosphere is much better. Friendly front desk attendants :) I wish I would have gotten their names to give them special recognition.

My husband and I booked our second honeymoon here through a Groupon. We booked a Lakeside Villa room with inclusive breakfast and dinner and activities. Upon check in we received a complimentary upgrade to the Garden of Eden Apple room which included a private sauna, pool, heart shaped tub, round bed, and ultimate privacy. Of course, we were there to spend a fair amount of time in the room and the upgrades made it all the more enjoyable and romantic.
The breakfasts and dinner were delicious, perfect portions, great service, and enjoyable atmosphere. There was nightly entertainment, which were were pleasantly surprised by and the happy hour drink specials were reasonable. We enjoyed the natural scenery, seclusion, daytime activities, and it was the perfect setting to re-​kindle the love! Very accommodating for the erotic :)
Rooms without the groupon are pretty pricey, but the discounts and upgrades we received made it a great deal for us!

Nice room, but beware your bill!
We stayed one night and ate elsewhere, and left a tip on the bureau for housekeeping.
Upon checking out, we discovered a $ 39.84 «Gratuity» tacked onto our bill.
When we questioned it, the front desk got the manager. The manager explained it as «gratuities» for the restaurant staff and housekeeping. When we assured her we never ate at their restaurant, she switched her story to that it was a gratuity for housekeeping.
I suggested that $ 39.84 was a little high for one night for the room maid and she suggested I take back what I left for housekeeping on the bureau. I didn’t, because I doubt the room maid would be seeing much of the $ 39.84.
Although the manager could not show us anywhere the hotel advised us of this «Gratuity,» she told us she had no «authority» to remove this charge, but would «pass on our concern.»
So will we!

Quirky little love nest. In the room it had a sauna for 2, a small maybe 3 person pool with mirrors all over it. That lead to the bedroom complete with round bed, working fireplace walkin closet. The bathroom had the mini fridge, shower stall, and double sink. The living room had a couch, 2 chairs. A small table, a large shaped hot tub.
BUT, the bed kill our backs, the remotes didn’t work on either of the 2 tvs. And it is definitely due for updating. But that is what added to the quirkiness. It was clean. Remember you are surrounded by nature.
The resort was lovely. It had all amenities you could need. Game room complete with PINK POOL TABLES. Indoor and outdoor pool. Outdoor bar and fire pit. Night club. Dining room with wine list. We had a fun time. Will check out one of the sister properties next time.

Okay, this is going to be a long one. We have been going to Paradise Stream for 12+ years, and I can honestly say this will be our last visit.
First off, when I called to make the reservation I felt like I was buying a car. We are «Forever Lovers», which means we can get discounts for our stays. The first quote I was given was unbelievably high. When I said, «That’s not gonna happen.», she said, «Let me talk to my manager.» Okay… She came back with a price $ 80 less than the first. I ended up taking just two nights instead of three. We just couldn’t afford it.
We always get the garden of Eden Apple suite. We arrived and checked in and here’s what we saw. Broken tiles in the pool. MOLD on the walls in the pool area and in the shower. I turned on the faucet in the bathroom and it sprayed the entire mirror with water. The carpet is ragged and worn, and the TVs are the old clunkers that they’ve had since 2000.
To top it off, we had to pay $ 49.81 gratuity for EACH NIGHT, and our room was never cleaned! We went out for the day and came back at 3pm and our room was still undone. The cleaning lady was a few doors down and offered us clean towels. Gee thanks. Call my crazy, but I kinda expect my room to be cleaned before 3 o’clock in the afternoon. Think that was worth the $ 49.81? We only used the dining room for breakfast, and we left a cash gratuity for our waitress. How can they justify an extra $ 100 for two nights for gratuities? Last I heard the tip was up to the patron depending on how they think service was. ???
Being Forever Lovers is supposed to mean you’re loyal customers. We have been there at least TEN times (maybe more, but the front desk couldn’t tell us) and we are still only silver level. After more than a decade don’t you think we should have been elevated to gold by now? Even the staff told us that the tiers for Forever Lovers changes constantly.
So, my friends, needless to say after more than a decade my husband and I will not return to Paradise Steam. It’s very sad, because we loved it there. But it just isn’t worth the money or the insult to stay in a moldy room that isn’t even housekept and pay that much money. I can go on a cruise for less per night. I think I shall.

I bought a groupon deal as a Valentine’s gift for my husband and we stayed an extra night. We stayed in the new «Diane Oasis» suites and it was the ultimate in decadence, beautiful pool, Jacuzzi, fireplace and mirrors galore. The room is so spectacular it makes it hard to leave but the last day we had to and enjoyed the resort. I can’t find a single complaint! We did it all the last day, the wine tasting, the arcade challenges and even the silly aphrodisiac taste test… okay I did have one complaint. Why did I get asparagus? Yuck!
My recommendation? Come here as soon as you can check in, milk it for every second and leave with some beautiful (private) memories.

I’ve stayed at all 3 at the Cove Haven Entertainment resorts & this was the least enjoyable.
I came here to celebrate my birthday.
Drove 2 hours to get there and had to wait 2 hours to get a room!
Front desk kept telling me that it would only be a couple minutes, that’s what really annoyed me.
A couple minutes isn’t 30 – 40 minutes.
If you were just honest and said how long it was taking maybe I wouldn’t be so damn annoyed.
The manager gave me a log for the fireplace.
Should’ve given me a late checkout or something else for the 2 hours I lost, well 1.5 since check in is at 3 and we got there at 2:30.
I am part of their Forever Lovers club, but since I booked my stay through Groupon, none of the perks applied.
Sucks, because who the hell can afford this place without a deal?!
Stayed in the Diana’s Oasis Suites.
The layout of the room bothered me.
The bathroom is the first thing you encounter.
The room was clean, but the bathroom smelled like someone took a dump & they didn’t air it out. It wasn’t horrible, but you don’t want to smell someone else’s dump.
Then the jacuzzi and bedroom, then the pool & fire place.
I felt like the jacuzzi should’ve been in the bathroom (to prevent mildly/​mildewy carpets), but hey I’m no architect!
The room was smaller than expected, but it was still good.
Didn’t do any of the activities, so I can’t comment on that.
Can’t help that my lover didn’t want to make new friends.
The staff was very lovely.
Breakfast the next day was alright.
Dinner on the other hand… well I got food poisoning.
We had to check out so I put my big girl pants on took a shower and checked out.
We had stopped at the outlets which are only 10 minutes away driving.
Good thing we did because I had to go!
Started making our way back to New York, 45 minutes later I had to pull over on the I-​80 to throw up.
Throughout the trip my boyfriend kept reminding me that I was the one that picked this place & that he picked Cove Haven. I should’ve threw up on him.
Long story short: I literally had a shitty birthday.
STAY AWAY FROM THE FOOD! There’s a taco bell walking distance from the resort.

I love this place. I have in my room fireplace. Jacuzzi. Shauna & a small swimming pool. Very romantic vacation with the wife. I bought on Groupon for 180 $ a night. Will come again.

Worst experience me and my wife have had in a long time. The food was horrible we both got sick after we eat both nights. We thought may it was a fluke the first night but the second night was worst. WE HAD TV DINNERS THAT WERE BETER. There was nothing really to do there. It’s over priced and they charged us twice. We would have given it 0 stars but 1 was the only option.
NEVER AGAIN WILL WE COME BACK

Bought a livingsocial deal for a stay here so decided to choose this as the place to celebrate our two year anniversary. If you buy any kind of deal here, or stay here in general get ready for a lot of bullshit promises.
The website for this place is sneaky as it describes all three places, you’re not sure what your actually getting.
Firstly be prepared to drop additional money when you check in for upfront tax and tips.
I want to applaud the person who writes the website descriptions because good Christ are they good at stretching the truth.
Sure you can go to the other resorts and share amenities, If you want to drive an hour away.
The location: you are directly off the main road. When you’re standing on your back balcony ready to enjoy the scenery and the animals, be prepared to also take in the scenery of all of the pickup trucks and shit that drives by. The other resorts are isolated but not this one.
The room; we stayed in lakeside villas. Each room is it’s own building with a back terrace which is private and nice. The inside is awesome, heart shaped tub, big bed, archways, marble shower and TVS. I love the campy cheesy vibe that’s why I wanted the poconos, but with that said PLEASE UPDATE THE TVS. Stereo didn’t work. Wifi was fine. The tub took a long time to fill, no issue, it’s vacation so who’s got anywhere to be however you better enjoy that one tub fillup because following that the water is freezing cold. Oh and don’t bother taking a shower after because that shit is cold too. I could try and rationalize the hot water heater issue, but for the price why would I?
Food: worst I’ve ever eaten ever. Breakfast included. The restaurant area was depressing.
Entertainment: a great Motown band played Saturday, Friday this band the bridesmaids who blew. Comedians were great.
The beers are average price, the liquor is GROSSLY overpriced.
The interior look of the place was amazing. I loved the 70s vibe. The theater was beautiful.
The pool: the pool is 24 hours I love that. It was clean, so over chlorinated my skin burned. Better safe than sorry.
staff: for the most part the staff was wonderful. Attentive and quick to help. However I did find the desk receptionist Camber to be exceptionally unwelcoming. We tried to see if we could extend our stay for possibly a better price (since booking three nights online offered a deal) and she was exceptionally dismissive. She also seemed unwilling to offer us any assistance. As a result we booked our extra night elsewhere.
