About this property

Magical Clarion County Church Renovation

A very romantic space! The perfect atmosphere for the writer or artist.The large, open great room is inviting for yoga and exercise practice. A former church, this renovation has maintained a peaceful and meditative quality.A good place to make or listen to music. .Small back porch with a table and chairs.,Dogs are very welcome and the back porch area has a fenced in area they seem to like!!!!.Pretty bathroom with shower. The kitchen counter was once the counter in the old country store in the village of Lawsonham.The woodwork is beautiful and the high ceilings give one the feeling of freedom .The many windows invite the outside in. Come and rest a while, create, enjoy! So very close to the Lawsonham Rails to Trails entrance.Great opportunity for hiking and bicycling.!

Wonderful Stay!

Everything about our stay was outstanding! The house was unique, comfortable, well-equipped and relaxing. The location is quiet and relatively secluded, with friendly little towns and great food just a short hop in any direction. Just an all-around great experience!

Great accommodations

Mary was an excellent host and the sweetest woman. She called us before our arrival so she could meet us there and let us in, then called again just as we were about to leave to wish us safe travels. The entire property is gorgeous and well kept. Will definitely book this one again.

Lovely Spot

The church is delightful. We loved the feeling of time and history there. The space has a wonderful feel to it, and the outside spaces are delightful as well. The stone circle is also great. I got some wonderful pictures of one of the dogs in the stone circle and both dogs on the nearby trail playing in the creek. It was a short but wonderful stay!

a perfect secluded cabin in the woods

We've stayed here before, and it's our first choice for coming back to. If you're looking for a large, quiet, well-appointed place isolated from a lot of the rest of the world - there is a road nearby, this place is for you.

Our second time here! This is the perfect spot to hike, take some time for quiet and calm, cook a great meal, open a great bottle of wine, listen to great music, or watch an old movie! We love this place and are looking forward to returning!

Exceeded Expectations

We had so much fun it reminded us of our separate childhoods. The grounds and pathways behind the church were straight out of a storybook. Absolutely incredible untouched piece of heaven. We came on a beautiful week where the sun was shining and the grass was green. Mary was wonderful and showed us her Incredible art collection. 75/5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This little renovated church is perfection. It is by far the best VRBO I have stayed at! The well stocked kitchen makes for easy cooking and the small library has a fun selection! Wi-Fi is spot on and fast for this rural location. I can’t wait to go back!

Near Redbank bike trail

We loved staying in this house that was formerly a rural Episcopal Church, just up the road from the bike trail. One very small thing---please add larger pots for making chili or pasta.

Remote retreat in a unique property!

The property is beautifully remodeled by Mary and her brother, and their personal touches throughout the property are unique and creative. The location is within a short drive of great hiking spots and local restaurants in the area. The only feedback we have relates to the mattress in the main bedroom; it would be worthwhile to upgrade the bed to be more comfortable and less "springy" with noise.

Great space!

Awesome place in the country - just up the hill from trail head w bike/hike trails going in three directions. Can hear the rapids from the house. Great space around the house, loads of room and privacy! It is the country, expect some country critters - also, it is hard to find a place that takes our hounds - two large dogs - fenced in area for dogs as well. We'll be back over the summer w our bikes - Paul and Linda of Middlefield OH

Weekend getaway to see the 2024 Solar Eclipse

Loved the way the church redone to be living quarters. Airy and spacious. We don't have dogs but there is a small fenced yard if you do. House in right on the road but there is little traffic. Very close to the Redbank Valley trail. Enjoyed the views of the woods and watching the deer and birds. We stayed here to be within a much more reasonable driving distance to see the eclipse (which was amazing, btw) and to keep some distance from crowds. We enjoyed hiking the nearby trail (12.6 miles total) and want to come stay again to explore more of the trails around the area.
