What a special place to come up and see the fall foliage and go apple picking! We really enjoyed our time at Lisa’s place. She was very communicative and helpful with providing places to go nearby. The daily bean, was such a great coffee spot! The place was very homey and exactly the getaway we were looking for.

What a great location. Private but just a short drive to stores and restaurants. We all loved the many walking trails right outside the front door. House was super cozy and our host had everything we needed to enjoy the stay. Highly recommend.

My husband and I eloped and stayed here for our honeymoon. The place is adorable and felt like we were in an antique museum. It was built in the 1830's and had some of the original flooring and ceilings with amazing upgrades. The host was so kind and left a "just married" banner on the door and a bottle of bubbly. All the amenities were provided and helpful notes throughout the home. The backyard has an amazing patio with a fire pit and stone wall. We hiked several of the amazing trails close by including the Applachian Trail. There are several markets close by with amazing food. I highly recommend staying here if you want a few days of country cozy comfort to get away from the daily hustle and bustle.

Our stay at this cabin was absolutely perfect! Having direct access to the Appalachian Trail just a short walk away made daily hikes incredibly easy, and our dog absolutely loved exploring the surrounding nature. After long days of hiking, our favorite ritual was winding down by the awesome firepit under the stars. The host was incredibly welcoming and provided excellent communication from start to finish, even giving us fantastic suggestions on the surrounding area that helped us find the best local spots. The cabin itself was cozy, clean, and well-equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. We highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a peaceful, pet-friendly, mountain retreat and would love to stay here again! Thank you, Lisa!

Great autumn stay

This is a lovely spot, one that has a wonderful atmosphere, cozy, and in a wooded area among farmland, the Appalachian Trail, and local sites (taverns, outdoor festivals, breweries/wineries). Dog-friendly, too, which is a huge plus. Looking forward to another visit.

Just Charming!

A very cute house, perfect for a weekend retreat and some skiing and snowshoeing. Beautiful with all the snow this year, and the owner is a delight to deal with. Hope to visit again for some hiking!
Response from VrboOwner on 27 Mar 2020
Thank you so much! If you think the property is beautiful now with the snow in the winter you will love it even more in the warmer months. Spring flowers are like a rebirth adding life to the fields. We enjoy the Spring Flower and Garden Show every year at the NJ State Fair Grounds. Summer is so much fun with so much to do.... and in the fall the mountain views of the fall foliage is incredible. I'm looking forward to your return for some hiking as I'm sure you will enjoy having the Appalachian Trail right in the back yard. Lisa

Mountain getaway

This quaint cabin made a great place for a quiet getaway. The 5 minute ride to the Appalachian Mountain trail made for a fun adventure. Lisa made sure all our needs were met! She is a premier host whether VRBO says it or not.

Thank you Andres! It was a pleasure hosting you. I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay. To be clear on your comment and hence my return response I have to say I’m very disappointed with the service lately this platform is providing. I’ve maintained my premier host statues for over 10 years until now. There have been changes implemented on this platform and not by myself that are misleading and incorrect. One is this AI computer generated updates that aren’t accurate! My location and area attractions aren’t accurate and definitely not appealing to any travelers reading this noted description of my property. I’ve been requesting the correct information to be added including all the area’s dining, activities, exploring and what not to be changed and noted back to the original description as I had personally selected prior to AI automatically making these changes that again are misleading, false and inaccurate. I’ve been repeatedly told changes cannot be made at this time due to the new SYSTEM ERROR! This is unacceptable and has caused me to have a tremendous decrease in reservations through this platform therefore why I currently lost my premier host status for bookings metrics. For all my future guests reading this I’m sorry I had to air this information this way… hopefully after reading this you’ll have a better understanding of why Burger King is noted as a recommended restaurant and animal watching is noted as something to do! Ugh!!! Please feel free to reach out to me with questions. I assure you there’s plenty to explore and wonderful nearby restaurants to dine in. Warm regards… Lisa

Clean, quaint, isolated house

If you’re looking for a clean, quaint house surrounded by trees, this would be a good pick. I imagine it’s especially cozy in the winter. Fire pit is a nice attraction for cool nights.

Great stay at lovely home

We had an outstanding stay at this house. It’s located near many hiking trails and we were able to take full advantage of that. The house was clean, well appointed and comfortable. We enjoyed spending the mornings in the patio area. Although we were only there a few days there are many things to do in the area and the host has a book/folder with dozens of local brochures to help keep you find your preferred activities. Overall, just a great stay.

A wonderful place for some quality father and son time.

The property was wonderful and fit our needs perfectly. Everything was clean and well-maintained, the area was peaceful and whatever we needed to get to wasn't too hard to find.
