À propos de cet hĂ©bergement

Fish the "Little J" / Cozy Cottage convenient to Juniata College & Penn State

Step back in time, and enjoy a stay at our century-old family cottage, just minutes on foot to the Little Juniata River.

No "traditional" internet or broadcast TV -- so our home is ideal for guests who prefer to "unplug" from media distractions. Although...

Adequate WiFi service via the guest's own cellular data when tethered to a laptop or tablet has been reported by multiple recent guests, sufficient for remote network access and video streaming. (Experience may vary, however, according to the guest's cellular network. We will assist our guests in getting connected upon request.)

The cottage features a cozy living room with a CD/DVD player and flat screen TV. A wide selection of DVD films is available, or bring your own. Connection to video streaming services via cellular data with an HDMI cable connection is also possible.

Recent guests have reported good cellular service with Verizon and AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile. AND as of October 16. 2023 a new signal amplifier is active that boosts cell reception with quite satisfactory results!

The "Little J" -- well known to fly fishers far and wide -- is one of Pennsylvania's best trout streams and popular with kayakers and river tubers as well; we are just a mile down-river from the village of Barree.

Built in 1902 on a wooded acre by 2nd and 3rd generation descendants of late 18th Century settlers of northern Huntingdon County, the home has been carefully maintained and fully modernized -- serving both as a seasonal and a long-term residence over the last 120 years. Expanded periodically since first built, the home retains many of its original architectural features together with some period furnishings.

Take your morning coffee on our all-seasons porch (screened in warm weather, enclosed with thermal widows in cold weather). Hike up the road into the Rothrock State Forest lands. Hike the Mid-state Trail from a nearby trail head with adequate parking.

The cottage comprises about 975 sq ft (90 sq m) and can accommodate 4 guests comfortably.

The kitchen is equipped with dish soap, dish cloths and dish towels, pots and pans, cooking utensils, toaster, toaster oven with broiler, microwave oven, plates, cups, coffee pots (French Press and Italian Stove Top Espresso), glasses, and flatware. The kitchen seats up to 4 persons, with a 1920s-era Hoosier cupboard and a professionally-restored, 1950s-era gas range, ready for stove-top cooking.

IF YOU PLAN TO ROAST, BAKE, OR REHEAT, ask us to set the oven's standing pilot for you prior to arrival. (Note that this model range did not include a broiler.)

The two bedrooms are in the half-story loft: one with a queen bed and the other with two twin beds.

While many of our guests prefer to bring their own BED and BATH linens, we can furnish these at the guest's request for a one-time $30 fee to cover our linen laundry costs and make up the beds for you. We furnish bed pillows. comforters and light blankets.

You can draw the privacy curtain between the rooms if needed.

The house has modular and window air conditioning units installed in hot and humid weather.

The full bath has a tub with shower.

Our cottage is clean but not fussy: a kick-off-your-shoes, settle-in-with-a-good-book-or-good-conversation kind of place.

We are about 50 minutes from Penn State University and about 20 minutes from Juniata College.

Convenience stores and gas stations (10 minutes to Petersburg or to Alexandria) and supermarkets (20 minutes to Huntingdon) are within convenient driving distances. Several local eateries are close by for eat-in or take-out, and some for delivery.

Great cabin for fly fishing trip

This cabin suited us well for our fly fishing trip. It is a great location for accessing the Little Juniata. The cabin is comfortable and quiet, and the host is very communicative and available to help if anything should arise (which did not happen during our stay).

My husband and I loved the cabin and beautiful area around! Waking up to the sounds of birds and the babbling brook in front of the cabin was divine, and the rich history of the cabin present in pictures and snippets made our visit feel more like coming home than being on a trip. Guy was a fantastic host who communicated wonderfully and even gave us fantastic restaurant recommendations for the area. We will definitely be back to enjoy the cabin again!

Chasing the cicadas

Perfect place for a getaway to nature. Saw a bald eagle and lots of squirrels. Even had a rabbit in the yard that seemed tame. The high water prevented most of the expected hatches, but we still fished the Little J. Looking forward to returning. Guy was the perfect host.

A home away from home

I recently stayed in this cottage for a winter getaway. It was just as described and perfectly appointed! Guy and Jane met me shortly after arriving and told me a little about the history. They were easy to reach during my stay and very friendly. Overall the cottage is cozy and I was relaxed and comfortable during my stay. The Little Juniata is a short walk and the scenery is beautiful. I look forward to staying again!

I was looking for a place to stay while on a fishing trip. This cabin was perfect for what I needed. A little on the rustic side, but I love that. The host was very accommodating and very easy to communicate with. I will be staying here again for future trips.

Peaceful and Relaxing

We enjoyed a peaceful and quiet three night stay where we enjoyed a bit of fishing, walking and driving some of the back roads - and sitting by the river in the evening! The property was very clean, well outfitted and comfortable. Communication with Guy before our stay and at arrival was excellent. We were happy with our selection of this property and would not hesitate to book again if we return to the area.

Pourquoi avoir choisi cet hébergement ?

Our home is a 120+ year old family legacy that we love to share with family, friends and responsible guests (both US and internationally).

The location is ideal for fly fishing, tubing and kayaking enthusiasts on one of the best trout streams in Pennsylvania or for just relaxing without major media distractions over a long weekend.

As a "market experiment" in late 2018, we first listed the property under a property management contract with an area realtor with whom we have long done business and whose professional attentiveness on our behalf yielded encouraging results. This afforded us the requisite knowledge and confidence by January 2021 to now manage our guest house ourselves.

Whereas our guests' entire stay can be achieved without any personal contact with us, we enjoy meeting our guests in person (following current CDC guidelines, of course)--always by appointment--either upon arrival or after they have settled in.

Quels sont les atouts de cet hébergement ?

We are convenient to academic and cultural centers (Juniata College and Penn State University), recreation (Raystown Lake and Rothrock State Forest, Mid State Trail, Lakemont Park), shopping and services (Huntingdon, State College, Altoona), yet secluded and private enough for those who just want to get away and unwind without major media distractions.
