The Inn was beautiful with lots of character. The hosts were amazing! Friendly, helpful and made our short stay very enjoyable. The breakfasts were excellent with a good variety and cooked well.

A Hidden Gem
Feom the moment we checked in until the moment we checked out, the service was great. Owners Marty and Gaile were great. Whether it was to offer information about the house, the area or just to make you smile, Marty and Gaile truly made the experience a great one and felt like we were staying at grandma and grandpa's place. Breakfast was great as well as dinner at the in house restaurant, My Daughters Place. Marty is an excellent chef as well as his daughter who cook dinner with Marty. The house is over 100 years old and has it's own character and charm. The bed was big and comfortable, we both slept well. The only minus was that our room, #2, had a stand up shower that was a bit small and the toilet was a bit close to the wall, but these things can be expected. Other rooms had larger showers with tubs and the rooms in the 3rd floor had a nice shared bathroom. Overall this was a great time with great hosts. We cant wait to return.

Such a treat!
Loved our stay at Brookview Manor. Gail and Marty were friendly, hospitable and tended to our needs. We felt like family. The breakfast was amazing, plentiful and so delicious. Marty is an awesome chef who loves his craft. It was convenient to have dinner 'at home'. The menu was extensive, inspiring and very tasty. Our suite was comfortable and we loved having a separate sitting area. We were close to nature, the casino and the Outlet Mall. Plenty to keep us occupied on a rainy weekend. We left feeling rejuvenated and relaxed and taken care of. Perfect getaway destination. I hope to go back. Highly recommended.

Pocono Getaway
My first impression was not great. We had a communal bathroom; the heat was not on the first night, and it was very cold. The room was too busy; knickknacks everywhere; no place to set my coat. The breakfast is served at 9 am which was not convenient for our departure day. BUT, the place grows on you, the breakfast was absolutely hot and delicious; the hosts were friendly and very nice. The second night we had heat so it was much more comfortable. I am on the fence as to whether I would stay here again. Brookview Manor is in the heart of the Poconos, and the area is absolutely one of our favorite destinations.

Lovely Victorian B&B in a beautiful setting
Definitely one of the best B&B's I've ever stayed in, and I stay almost exclusively in B&B's when I travel. It's a bit remote, but well worth the drive into the mountains, furnished in Victorian style with a lovely wrap around porch perfect for reading. Innkeepers Gail and Marty are welcoming, accommodating, and hilarious--do yourself a favor and linger over breakfast to talk with them. The food is beautifully presented and delicious, especially Marty's Egg Bellied Owl breakfast and his Fried Green Tomato dinner appetizer. The room was comfortable, quiet, and well provisionsed. I will be returning there again.

Nice, quite getaway place for relaxing.
Friendly, helpful staff. Breakfast is heavy and freshly made with cheerful chef! - Marty. Don't count calories!!. The owners - Marty and Gaile are jolly people and makes the stay fun. Evening dinner is only available on Friday and Saturday. The food is excellent and big portions. Wines are expensive, so take your own drinks and enjoy in your room before hand!. There are few restaurants 3 to 4 miles from this B&B, on rt 390 towards Cresco.

The inn was very quaint and the owners made us feel at home. The food they served was very good and they went out of there way to let us eat early as we needed to check out early for an excursion we were going on in the morning.

A weekend In The Woods
My wife and I stayed here for out fifth wedding anniversary and we had a great time. Gail and Marty were very welcoming. We had dinner there the first night and it was very good. The breakfasts both mornings were fantastic. We stayed in the library room (#6) and it worked well for us. Overall, our experience was very nice and I would recommend staying there if you are in the area.

We had a very pleasant stay at the B&B. We stayed there because we were going to a retreat at Spruce Lake Retreat Center down the road. The breakfast was amazing and we're especially thankful that they accommodated our early schedule (breakfast is usually served at 9 AM but they served us at 8:15 AM because we had to leave early).

Would have been happy with more information
There was a situation by which I mean a thousand police & FBI were in the town looking for #1 on the FBI's 10 most wanted list. I should have been told. I wanted to take evening photos (I'm a photographer,) and I couldn't. We were rather trapped once we arrived at 6pm. The innkeeper was gone for the night. There was no dinner, the bar, while open had a sign asking us not to touch, but to call for assistance. I called. No one ever came. Maybe a microwave with a popcorn selection? A few softer pillows would have been nice too! Breakfast was superb by the way! I did photograph in the morning.

Good B and B
If you are looking for a nice and simple getaway with your significant other, then this is a good place. The place is over 100 years old. So don't expect it to be flashy. I stayed in room #4, the King Suite. Worth the money. Service was great. Breakfast was great. Like I said l, if you are looking for nice and simple getaway, this is a good place.

The place is nice and the surroundings are great. To our surprise the restaurant was very nice! The rooms are small and old, but ok. Only thing we had some issues with was the heater in the rooms, which had a mind of its own.

stay at bed and breakfast
The house is not easy to find if you are not familiar with the area. The owners tried to give us a heads up on directions but the GPS took us elsewhere. They are very pleasant and accommodating. The room was cozy, the bathroom very small but very clean. It was our very first stay in a bed and breakfast, so we were apprehensive at first. The breakfast was great,all freshly made, even the muffins were still warm.

Not sure I would return.
If you ever stayed in the New Hope Inn in New Hope, PA the atmosphere was "garage sale chic". This hotel reminded me of New Hope. The third floor room we stayed in was to warm and even though my husband knew how to adjust a radiator we still had to open a window to get the room cooled down. Private bath was very small and the water trickled from the shower and sink. Parking lot was like a skating rink. Price was right, staff was friendly, breakfast was very good but like so many things in the Poconos the Inn appears in need of some TLC.

Great Food in a peaceful setting.
We enjoyed the hospitality of the Brookview Manor Inn. The restaurant serves first rate food, and they are willing to modify the meals to suit your dietary preference. We told the waitress that we were on a low carb diet, and she substituted a cucumber salad for the dinner rolls. We had the seafood entrees, and they were well seasoned and delicious. The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable about the local area. We also enjoyed the grounds of the Manor, which are well maintained and feature tall evergreen trees. The large dining room window was open during our dinner, and we could hear the babbling of the brook and the chirping of the crickets. The evening air was fresh and cool, which was a refreshing change after the hot summer weather we experienced elsewhere during out East Coast trip.

Great inn!
This is a great inn for those looking for a quiet or romantic getaway. The innkeepers were very pleasant and we really enjoyed our experience. Breakfast was excellent, and you can tell they really put a lot of work into providing a positive experience. I would recommend booking directly through their website for more personal service, they even contacted us ahead of time to make sure we had the right directions.

Nice, quiet Pocono's B&B
The owners were really nice and the rooms were decorated really nicely. Only downside was the room was a little dusty. The restaurant is AMAZING, the food is top notch and actually reasonably priced. The breakfasts are always absolutely delicious, and the surrounding area has plenty to do. Definitely coming back at some point.

One of the Pocono's best
Stayed at the Brookview Manor for our anniversary. Served a full and harty breakfast every morning. Gailye & Marty the innkeepers were both warm and friendly. This B&B also has a very good resturant, food is excellent. B&B is in Canadesis which is a little out of the way but still within a 10 to 15 min drive to many attractions. Highly recommended, would stay there again.

Brookview Manor Inn of the Poconos
Was not at all what we expected. The steps leading up to our room were treacherous and rickedy. The fireplace did not work. The toliet seat had a large crack. The room sloped. The TV was in an awkward spot. It was uncomfortable to view it from the bed. The bedside lamp did not work. Many repairs are needed. Wall paper was peeling. Instead of feeling comfortable and peaceful, we felt like it was a trashy place. We were expecting a nice, romantic weekend, but were sadly disappointed. We had two nights booked, but left after only one night.

Great Place
We had a great time at the Brookview Manor. Marty & Gail the owners are great people & a lot of fun. We had good conversations & a lot of laughs with them over the 2 days we were there. My wife & I felt like we have known them for years. Marty's stories were great. They were very accommodating with telling us places to go, etc. Marty's breakfasts were incredible. They were not only delicious but also very filling. The room #11 was just like we expected. The jacuzzi was perfect for both of us. We would definitely visit again.

Perfect Getaway
Spent a winter weekend getaway here. Cozy, romantic place with lots of character. The adjoining bar/restaurant was delicious. The owner, Marty, is a fun guy who knows how to cook and made you feel right at home. 20 minutes from Camelback Ski resort (and even closer to Alpine), this place was perfect for our short escape from NYC. Next time though, we'll get a room with a fireplace! :)

Nice hideaway in the Poconos
Very nice, quaint and clean B&B in the Poconos, close to Skytop. They offer excellent food both at the breakfast normally included with the room (hence the name B&B) as well as a very good dinner menu. Not a lot of restaurants in the area and this made it easy to retire after a long day. Room #6 has a bathroom across the hall (not shared) but was not an issue for us.
