Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway tucked away in the Appalachian mountains of PA. Take a break from the noise and busyness of your every day life, and enjoy the peace that comes with a stay in the mountains. Although it may seem as though our home is in the middle of nowhere, (and maybe it is!) be assured that there is no shortage of things to do or sights to see in the area! **If you would like to stay in this cottage with Bed & Breakfast services, please see our other listing!**
The house is very nice, like new in fact. Even though it's fairly small, it has an open floor plan making it feel much bigger.
Our only issue occurred the final night of our stay. It got fairly chilly and the heat in the main living area didn't work (neither did the dishwasher, BTW). The gas fireplace hadn't been prepped for the season either. Fortunately, the house has thermostats for the bedroom and bathroom, in addition to the one in the main living area, so we were able to stay comfortable. I texted the property manager but didn't get a response for hours.
On a positive note, the house feels homey and efforts to make the house welcoming and comfortable are evident - some k-cups, breakfast bars, and half-n-half left with a note to help ourselves.
Ricketts Glen State Park is really nice and only 15 minutes from the house. The falls trail is fairly challenging because of the rocks and number of stairs, but well worth the effort. Hiking 3 miles gets you access to about a dozen waterfalls.
Exceptionally comfortable house with easy access to Ricketts. As advertised but way better. Excellent communication with owner. This is THE place to stay. Lounged on the sunny front porch, fed carrots to the neighbors horses and relaxed in all the open space.
