More quantity (space) than quality

I cannot overstate how great Marissa was to communicate with. Clear, accomodating, generous, available. However, I wish I hadn't had to communicate with her as often as I did. For example- the dead mice in a trap, the lack of trash bags, a missing towel... Overall the house was clean-ish. At the end of each day my kid's socks would be dark gray. Of the two couches downstairs, one had food dried into a crack and the other was broken. We had a broom but not a dustpan, so we had to just sweep our crumbs into a corner. Oddly, the ants showed up in the opposite corner of the kitchen. The yard had a lot of trash in it, including plastic shot glasses and empty bottles, as well as a couple piles of charcoal, so we really couldn't let the kids play out there. Other than that, the house is SO loud. The floors sound squeaky on the top but thunderous if you're on the level below. It was really challenging to let some people sleep in once others woke up. I will say, the location was very convenient. It took us less than twenty minutes to drive anywhere and we did lots of the big tourist-y items.

All Around Perfect

We started out looking for a host that communicates, a clean house and a quiet neighborhood. I can say with much assuredness that this is the ideal place with no drawbacks. The host was respectful and responded promptly to all my inquires. The house was clean and nicely laid out. It felt like home. Everything we needed was at our fingers tips. The only thing that I struggled with was the can opener. It broke and I am sure the host will replace it soon. To my amazed, the location was perfect and the neighborhood was quit. Imagine, on new years eve, we heard no more than two fire crackers and no loud noises around. It was truly perfect. I will plan to return to Ira's Nest on my next visit to PA. Thank you for the perfect stay

A Great Place to Vacation with Family

The property is Beautiful and we’ll-maintained. It’s spacious enough to allow you and your family to maintain separate quarters, while at the same time enjoying your family together in the shared spaces such as the kitchen, living room and family room. The owner is delightful and easily reachable if needed. I recommend this space highly.
