Guest Comments:: We were looking for a quiet get away from New York City that wouldn't require a day of travel to get there and a day of travel on the return. We didn't imagine that after only a two-hour drive (we were blessed with almost no traffic), we'd find the beautiful place we discovered when we arrived. Everywhere we went we encountered friendly faces and folks who were delighted to offer assistance when we needed it. The best part of each day was returning to the peace of the cabin for a quiet meal, curling up with a book, or just watching the sun set through the slim tall trees from the front porch. We are looking forward to our next stay. Reg & Chris, August 2008 ***We had such a nice time at the cabin. Steve and I decided it was the perfect cabin (so comfortable, great kitchen, the wonderful loft!) We really had a hard time leaving the cabin to DO anything, didn’t even go out to dinner in the end. But that was just fine, since we DO all the time. Pam, October 2008

Guest Comments Con'td:: ***We have told all our friends here in Philly about your lovely cabin, and there is general interest in returning for a late winter getaway. Thanks again for the hospitality. We arrived late Friday night and lit the fireplace. There was about 6 inches of snow on the ground outside. My fiancé and I actually slept up in the loft just to get the best views of the morning light reflecting off the trees and snow. Saturday, we cooked a nice breakfast and waited for the third couple to arrive. Once they did, we hiked up the road to the Appalachian Trail, got a little lost, got found, saw the spring, got cold, came home, and started the epic night of board games. Yes, we walked up and found the swing. The view from up there is very nice! Sutter, November 2008***

Perfect Getaway

Sadiemae Paoli, PA
Review Submitted: November 10, 2009 Date of Stay: November 2009
This is a jewel of a place, charming, simple, beautifully maintained, easily accessible yet with the feel of a place far away from the rest of the world. We have been here several times, and each time has been better than the last. There's a lot to do nearby but we end up staying close to home hiking, exploring the woods, playing by a nearby pond, or reading and playing games on the porch or by the fire. There's television and wireless but we've never felt the need for either. Highly, highly recommended.

Perfect vacation spot

jamie215 lansdowne, pa
Review Submitted: October 19, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
This cottage was excellent. Spent a cold rainy weekend here, and had a great time. There was no need to even leave the cottage, we just sat in front of the fire all day (Liz and Ken provide plenty of firewood) and enjoyed the rural views (the porch remained dry even during the rain, so this is a great place to wrap yourself in a blanket and enjoy your morning coffee). The cottage is very well maintained, and Liz and Ken provide a ton of things to do (from games, to books, to wireless internet within the cottage, not to mention a great list of things to do nearby, including directions to these places). I would highly recommend this place for a little getaway. I came from the Philadelphia area and can get to the cabin in about 90 minutes, so it is great even for a weekend. I can't wait to come back!

Our family's wonderful stay

Dixie08 Winder, GA
Review Submitted: October 14, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
Our family enjoyed this cabin immensely!!! We had a wonderful time here. It is set on a beautiful mountainside with a babbling brook running down below. It is VERY peaceful. It is plenty big enough for a family or several couples. The owners were very conscientious of our needs and made our stay wonderful!!! I would highly recommend staying here. It is located in an area close enough to many things to do for fun, or just sit on the porch and enjoy the brook and nature. It also has a wonderful fireplace for your enjoyment or just for chilly evenings. Also, if you like to cook it has a completely furnished kitchen. We are already planning to stay here on our annual trip next year.

Quiet & Comfortable

LCEHZZ New Holland,PA
Review Submitted: September 22, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
The perfect place to have all of your troubles and stress from your regular life melt away. This cabin provides you with peace and comfort from the moment you begin your booking with the accomadating owners, to your arrival at the secluded site, to watching the kids enjoy the loft and then settle in to roast the marshmallows for the s'mores by the fire. The kids loved playing in the well stocked loft(4 of them with room to spare) and havng their special space. The location is great to venture out for activities, but when you are tucked back into the cabin you feel like you are hours away from it all. It was very hard to leave, but we look forward to making more memories at the cabin in the future.

Peaceful retreat, lovely inside and out

schoolteacher Philadelphia
Review Submitted: September 14, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
My husband and I cannot say enough positive about this lovely cabin. We were looking for a place to hole up and read surrounded by peace, quiet, and lovely woods. This is it. We had 3 wonderful days. Ate homemade ice cream from the dairy store we passed on the way there. It rained heavily 2 of the 3 days we were there, but we didn't care because it was so pleasant in the cabin. The owner is a wonderful woman who made us feel welcome and comfortable. She was extremely (like way beyond the call of duty) helpful in getting us there, making it easy to find, accommodating some constraints on our time that made the arrival data uncertain. If you like peace and quiet in pleasant sylvan surroundings, this is the cabin for you! We will definitely be back.
