October 2021 - Watertown, CT~~(14 day stay) Five retired guys who've been traveling to PA to hunt the bow season for over 30 years. Starting out in tents, then travel trailers and now we've rented cabins for the last 4 years.  Your place was super clean upon arrival and we tried to keep it that way.  Deer population this year was slim and far between.  No venison from PA this year. We've watched the deer numbers drop over the past several years.  Ellen was super friendly & talked with her at length when she came for trash.  The only thing disappointing was the fact that there was no TV during 4 rainy days and we all missed Fox News & local weather and news.  A good time was had by all.  Would consider returning and we all thank you for allowing us to enjoy your cabin.  Thanks again.

 

September 2021 - Denver, Wyomissing & Folsom, PA~~Our first time here-we loved it.  This was a mother, daughter, daughter-in-law weekend.  We all want to come back with the men.  We don't have a single negative comment.  The weather was perfect.  We enjoyed the firepit at night & Wellsboro & Grand Canyon during the day.  We did not see any bear, however.  It was apparent that we were visited by one during the night. We woke up Sunday morning to find that the metal trash can by the firepit was pushed over and dented.  Must have been a bear!  We look forward to coming back again!

September 2021 - Basking Ridge, NJ~~Hello! We enjoyed a lovely day of hiking at Leonard Harrison State Park.  Pine Creek Gorge (PA Grand Canyon) is absolutely beautiful!  We hiked down to the bottom where we enjoyed a waterfall as well as the river.  We also spent time walking around Wellsboro, taking in a movie, a dinner and homemade ice cream.  At night we enjoyed making a fire. My girls enjoyed many games of Trouble.  My husband and I enjoyed the peace and quiet.  This is a lovely cabin.  We hope to stay again sometime!

 

September 2021 - Cleveland & Youngstown, OH~~My best friend and I were looking for a quiet secluded cabin to paint & craft for a weekend.  Our stay here was PERFECT!  At night we enjoyed a few smores and played many rounds of Yahtzee & Scategories.  The only bear we saw was the one out back roasting marshmallows.  We couldn't ask for a better get away and are hoping to come back soon!

August 2021 - Coatesville, PA~~We had a great time at the cabin.  Paul went fishing at the local lakes.  We saw lots of deer tracks around the loop.  We saw many deer on our trips up and down the mountain.  On the way to Walmart, on the back roads, we saw fields of sunflowers.  They were beautiful. We did see a sow with her three cubs on the back roads.  All the animals looked healthy and well fed.  A favorite trip to Highland Chocolates!  It was a wonderful mission as well as delicious chocolates!  The tree stumps are a favorite treat.  Michele sat on the rocker crocheting baby blankets for the little ones arriving this fall.  It was a relaxing time away.

There were several on the property including a tiny fawn. TURKEY-2, including a large Tom near River Rd., BEAR-2, both along the road near Hills Creek.  One even put on a good show by standing on his hind legs!.
