Family weekend in the forest

We had a terrific long weekend at Theresa and Jay's cabin in the forest. There was plenty of room inside for everyone and a great front porch for hanging out. This is a great spot for an outdoor-themed stay in the forest and mountains of central Pa.

Wonderful stay - everything was perfect

Had a perfect stay at the Peaceful Escape in the Woods. It’s rare when everything is as expected and even more so when it exceeds expectations. We had a wonderful stay, everything was as advertised and everything was functional. Very clean and comfortable and the owners communication was superior and friendly. I gues the best review would be the answer to “would you stay there again” and our answer is a resounding YES!

Heaven on Earth

This was our third time staying here and each time is even better than the last. We stayed for two whole weeks this time. Theresa is the best hostess I have ever dealt with. She even left us a gift to add to our enjoyment. The place is always clean and there is always some firewood for us to use. It is so quiet and peaceful. Such a beautiful place to go to get away from the Hussle and bussle.

Peaceful and quiet!

We had a great vacation at Jay and Theresa's property! We seen a lot of deer and even a few bear. The property is out there so there wasn't any phone service in the immediate area but they had a land line set up for emergencies. I enjoyed being unplugged for the week. There is a lot to do in the area if you enjoy the outdoors.

Incredible.

We were so lucky to find this property to rent for the weekend. My husband ran in the Eastern States 100 miler race and we needed a spot that would help us crew him but also support my 3 very young daughters. This place was beautiful, supportive, clean and everything you could need. We felt so taken care of from the owners and they were so helpful during this stressful weekend for us. We would absolutely come back! Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness and support. Much love.
