 * Reply Thanks very much for the review and your edits. The house is made of sandstone, which I have clarified in the lead. It was already mentioned in the Architecture section and in a photo caption there. My guess is that it is sandstone from the Pocono Formation that underlies the lake and house, but I do not have a reliable source to back that up.
 * While I appreciate your helpful edits, on my computer the new link to the NPS Focus website gives an error when you click on it, and the external link checker in the toolbox above also shows the link is dead. Could you please fix it (I am not sure what to have there other than the link to the search page I had there originally). Thanks again, Ruhrfisch &gt;&lt;&gt; &deg; &deg; 04:20, 29 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry about that. I have amended the link, with a note of the search term. I am happy to now pass this as a Good Article. Thank you and congratulations!. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 04:31, 29 April 2010 (UTC)
