The views from and around the cottage are amazing. The location is great as it is very close to the Pine Creek Rail Trail. And the creek in the back yard is charming. The bedroom and bathroom heating and comfort of the bed were very much appreciated.

We loved this very warm hearted home. We stayed here due to running a trail race nearby. It had everything we needed and were very comfortable. Would definitely stay again! The neighborhood is gorgeous and surrounding area was fun to explore.

Roxanne was a great host! The house had plenty of room for our five guests. Very nicely furnished and kitchen was well stocked. The two bathrooms were very convenient. Internet worked well and very nice having the tv. We would enjoy staying again at this house. Maybe next time a visit in the Summer would be nice. Thanks for a great visit!

Eastern States 100 Recovery Retreat

Came to the Pine Creek area to run the Eastern States 100 and this house was great for our base camp and especially for relaxing and recovering after the race. The back yard space was beautiful with easy access to Pine Creek. Sipping coffee on the dock and sun porch and soaking in the creek in the afternoon was perfect! The large common room was nicely furnished and allowed the whole group to gather and share stories from the long weekend. Would stay here again for sure!

Great location, creek in the back was a great place to cool off during the 90 degree temps we had during our stay. House did not have air conditioning, only a window unit in master bedroom. Grill outside was nice, used it often to cook. Only issue we had was the floor when you walk in the front door feels like a trampoline, it wasn't very solid. Overall it was good, and would probably stay again. We were there for little League World Series week.
