What a great cabin. The view from the deck was amazing, and the cabin was truly secluded. We brought our dog, Kane, who also had an amazing time running up and down the slope of the property. They had everything we needed, and we enjoyed our trip. I came for the stars in the dark sky, and they did not disappoint. We will definitely stay again when we are in the area.

I am glad you found the process easy and that you had a wonderful time. The shower is thoroughly cleaned between each and every guest. Fyi- The water in our area is well water and has a high content of iron which in turn will create brown stains, especially on the vinyl shower base, making it appear as being "unclean"

A getaway called 'Serenity'

The place is awesome! The sunset through the windows, the cozy atmosphere of the cottage, the cute little bathroom, the hammocks, the trails - altogether a great place to go. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!!

Quiet and serene

My wife and I had a wonderful stay here. We were able to grill and sit around a fire in the evening. We were able to shut out the hustle and bustle of our lives and concentrate on celebrating our anniversary and listening to nature. Also, the sunsets from the deck are wonderful!

Serenity / noun / the state of being calm, peaceful, and untroubled.

Loved getting away to this nice cabin in the woods! The name says it all and the sunset view from the deck was beautiful! So great to be able to take our dog and do some hiking with him too. Thanks again Marilyn ...would like to try and get there for a fall get-a-way!

If you want incredibly quiet, this is your place. About 4 miles from Wellsville, this rustic cabin is secluded in the woods. It is older and well worn but sturdy. A lovely deck for reading and relaxing or having coffee. We did not cook food but the small kitchenette is sufficient. Towels and some small toiletries are included. Parking is nearby. And no bears!

Absolutely wonderful - again!

We had a wonderful time at this charming cabin nestled in the woods on the side of a mountain, again. Marilyn is the best host - quickly responsive, welcoming, thoughtful and helpful. The cabin is cozy and well appointed and has a lovely deck that lets you sit and enjoy a great view from up high amongst the boughs of the hemlocks, situated perfectly for the beautiful sunsets. Stores are within a 10-15 minute drive so we really had everything we needed along with the most restful stay. We'll be back again soon!

Perfect relaxing

It was located in the perfect location. Private and relaxing with Mother Nature sounds and views that were breathtaking. It was close enough for a drive into the little town to get groceries and enjoy an ice cream. The beds were comfy and the shower water pressure was great. Cabin lay out was very roomy, fresh and clean. The fire pit was nice to sit around on the cool nights. Sad that we didn’t book for a longer stay but maybe one day we can book again if ever out traveling that way. Thank you Marilyn for being a fabulous host and sharing your serenity space with us.

Lovely, peaceful spot

Lisa's location is wonderful! Serenity is the perfect name for this place. The only sounds for the most part are the birds and the breeze. The cabin is small but it had everything we needed. The deck is the perfect place for a morning cup of coffee or an afternoon book. We took full advantage of the trails and the fact that we were the only ones there and hiked all over the property. We liked it so much that we are now looking for a house in the area. The fact that Lisa has spent the past 30 years maintaining, preserving and developing this 138 acre paradise is very impressive, and makes the place even more special. I highly recommend this spot to all nature lovers!!

This cabin is absolutely breathtaking. We came here to escape the noise of the Big Apple, and what we discovered was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we knew this place was something special. Surrounded by tall trees and with sweeping views of the mountains, it felt like stepping into a postcard.Each morning began with the soft drift of fog over the trees, and each night ended under a sky full of stars, accompanied by the sounds of nature all around us. It was peaceful, grounding, and exactly what we needed to disconnect and recharge.If you love hiking and being immersed in nature, this place is perfect — with scenic trails just minutes from the door and wildlife all around, it feels like your own private retreat in the woods.We’re incredibly grateful to have found this gem. Thank you for sharing it with us and allowing us to create such unforgettable memories. We can’t wait to return.
