About this property

UNFORGETTABLE TIMES...500+ ACRES, 3/4 MILE ON PINE CREEK!

A DREAM FOR THOSE WHO ENJOY NATURE AND WILDLIFE ALONG WITH THE WARM PEACE OF AN EVENING FIRESIDE! Stroll along an old railroad bed beside a babbling and pristine trout stream running along breathtaking mountain views. A one-of-a-kind property with more than 500 private acres containing many hillside trails for your exclusive enjoyment--many options for hiking, horseback riding and cross-country skiing or just wandering and wondering.

The flat open areas around the cabin and our full-size barn offer a variety of sites for your private events including weddings, reunions and corporate retreats. Horse stalls are available with both outside and inside shelter. And to get even further away, an extensive variety of open and wooded trails meander across and over the mountain for many miles. And we are just up the road from the north entrance to the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon!

Sunsets bring on a sort of magnetism to our unmatched fire pit where many flames of debate have settled the differences of the past among friends. Of course, there is always another matter called to order for the next evening, or of course you can simply lean back, unwind, and find your answers in the stars...of which there are many! Very far from any neighbors, only the trees will hear your singing and tales, and they will pass along only a few whispers....

Inside the cabin, enjoy extensive hand-crafted woodwork and construction hewn from timbers on the property. Relax in front of a unique and inviting stone fireplace built from stones gathered from the property and surrounded by floor to ceiling windows. The fireplace rises from the center of the room with a cylindrical stack stretching up a two-story atrium and alongside a rustic spiral timber staircase. You won't want to leave this cabin...!

(Doors to the cabin and some out-buildings are monitored by exterior security cameras for protection of both you and us.)

(Make sure you are aware of advance notice requirement and fees for linens & towels, pets, total guests more than 10 or extra room.)

Our family had a wonderful stay! Joe was very accommodating and worked with us to make our stay the best possible! He even helped us out when we had trouble with the TV on out first night. The beds were very comfortable. I was so glad they were not box spring mattresses. This place is so much prettier in person. It snowed the whole time we were there & everything was covered in ice. But that didn't stop us from exploring the property & climbing the mountain. I might have fallen a few times, but it was worth it. Thanks for allowing us to stay at such a beautiful property. We look forward to coming back!

Clean - accommodations bedrooms were great, kitchen was very well stocked for the meals we needed to prepare.The house was so unique we were impressed by the amount of room we actually had.The bonus game room was a nice added feature.The best feature was the outside - trails for exploring, creek for fishing, and of course the fire pit.I think the only time we used the tv was to watch the Steelers play.This was truly a remarkable adventure.

Great Getaway to Pine Creek Farm

The Octagon was a great venue for a Memorial Day Weekend trip of eight life-long friends. Our 47th year! The house was perfect sized and offering room to hang out inside as well as outside by the fire pit. We cooked three dinners and found the kitchen perfect for our needs. Very secluded and no fear of disturbing neighbors with music or yelling during horseshoes matches. The Tioga Golf Club was just minutes down the road and the bike trip down the Pine Creek Canyon was easy but beautiful. A great place.

Between the game room and the property itself there was always something to do. Joe was easy to work with and responded to all my questions in a timely manner. He was very friendly and you could tell he genuinely wanted our family to have an enjoyable trip. Our family is looking forward to coming back again in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Joe & Maitland Sroba

Host profile image
Bucks County, PA born and raised, I went south to UVA for both undergrad and grad school, open-minded enough to marry a VA Tech Hokie! Currently living in Richmond, yet I never lost the love for the PA mountains. I find it very pleasing and fulfilling to give our children the opportunity to explore and maintain a connection to nature's beauty and bounty!

Why they chose this property

We have searched the PA Wilds for purchase opportunities for more than 20 years never quite finding that 'special' place until now. We'd love to share this gem with you...

What makes this property unique

This much frontage along a pristine trout stream is a rare find. Combined with the expert country craftsmanship of the interior along with the breathtaking mountain views, this property was impossible to pass up!
