Weekend getaway

The home was absolutely beautiful and wonderfully appointed. We loved the solitude yet good location. We went out for lunches and site seeing and then back home to the dogs and relaxation. Out only comment is to provide a few more knives that are not serrated for cutting items that need that kind of knife. Fabulous place!!!! Thank you so much for hosting us!

Penn State Weekend

We stayed at this amazing cabin for a Penn State football weekend. The pictures do not do this property justice. It is beautifully decorated, clean and the owners did not spare any expense when they renovated the house. Plenty of space to spread out. The owners were easy to work with and were available to anwer any questions.

Cozy, clean, and secluded!

We traveled to the area for a disc golf match. The local courses are nice! The house is very nice, clean, and accommodating. It is tucked away in the forest, making it a very peaceful and charming stay! The welcome note and basket was a perfect touch! The hosts are super sweet and responsive. We enjoyed going to L&L market for groceries; the prices are great! We also really enjoyed dinner and beers at Rusty Rail Brewing. The spinach artichoke dip and fish & chips are 10/10. For coffee, we visited The Old Mill Coffeehouse - the coffee was good! We will definitely stay at this cabin again if we return to the area in the future!
