Private Wooded Setting
This cabin was the perfect place for a little couples R & R! We stayed 2 nights over Valentine's Day weekend and even in the cold and snow the creek was bubbling happily. I would love to see this space in the spring/summer to get a real feel for the property! We battled snow and freezing rain on Saturday to go antiquing (thank you to Laura for leaving a snow shovel on the front porch). Made a few purchase and enjoyed apple dumplings from The Pie Shoppe. Highly recommended for peace and quite with your significant other.

Perfect
This cabin is cozy and clean. It is the perfect mix of old and new. This log cabin has been beautifully updated while keeping the charm of the original cabin. The hosts have thought of everything from the blanket on the front porch swing to the albums for the record player. The game room is stocked with cards, games and a dart board. The location is secluded and peaceful. Perfect getaway!

Beautiful property!
Although the pics for the listing showed a very pretty property, from the moment we arrived it was clear this was a very special place. Such attention to detail and oh so charming. Very spacious and clean. We took advantage of the cool fall evening and wood provided for the fire pit and were treated to an expansive star filled sky. My only regret is we were just passing through on our way to the east coast. Next time we'll make a point to extend our stay at this lovely home.

Perfect little cabin
We just loved our stay here. Thoughtfully decorated and ready for the holidays. Beautifully restored incorporating some of the old floors and walls with the new. You can't go wrong staying here. We'll be back!
Loved this log cabin. Stairs to upstairs bedroom may be a little steep for some. Clean modern updates and we loved it.

We really enjoyed our stay at your cozy and lovely home. It offered privacy and ambience for the perfect weekend getaway. The updated kitchen and bathroom were well appointed and the outdoor area with fire pit and covered porches oozed rustic coziness. We definitely would stay here again when available.
From providing firewood to games, this host provided everything to make our stay comfortable.

The Old Homestead
The cabin reminded us of a former homestead we used to live in by the seashore. Overall, everything was great, and we had an excellent experience!
A few basic "tweaks" would have made perfection. A broom and dustpan are a necessity, (the floors get gritty after a few days), access to the laundry room would have been nice (there was not enough bath towels for three people for a week-long visit), and some battery-powered candles or a flashlight for when the electricity goes down (it went down twice briefly during our stay leaving us in total darkness). We are looking forward to another stay next year!!!

I had a girls weekend with my 2 sister-in-laws and it was wonderful. We all loved the cabin. It was so clean and absolutely took my breath away. I could see the love put in to that cabin for people to enjoy. Sitting on the front porch was so relaxing and peaceful. We will be coming back to stay again. Thank you for sharing your cabin for others to enjoy its beauty and peacefulness.

Quiet magic
I will join the chorus of folks naming this cabin their favorite Vrbo ever. There is something about this space that instantly lifts your spirits; it feels just like home as soon as you walk in the door. The cabin has incredible bones and is so beautifully maintained, but the furnishings and details lift it to another level. So much consideration and care was clearly put into making the space comfortable, cozy, and—above all—welcoming. After four nights I was genuinely sad to leave!
The location is convenient to so many beautiful trails as well as Ligonier, several Frank Lloyd Wright properties, and all the things that make central PA fun to explore, but you could honestly make a whole trip out of enjoying this home. We’re already looking at dates for another visit so we can take full advantage of the beautiful porches and see some of the trails in full leaf.

Perfect Ski Getaway Location
We chose this property due to its proximity to Laurel Mountain and Hidden Valley. It did not disappoint!!!
First, the location was perfect. Second, upon entering the cabin what a lovely surprise! The online photos do not due this property justice. It is absolutely lovely, charming and so tastefully decorated. We loved being able to gather in front of the fireplace and share our ski stories from the day. While perfect for the winter we can’t wait to come back in the warm weather and enjoy the porches.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful property!!!

Beautiful setting.
Our goal was snowshoeing and snow hiking. The location offered us access to many different options. After a full day of exercise, the cabin was a perfect place to relax. The outdoor porches were great spots to sit and reflect on the day. The decor was interesting and beautiful. Cleanliness was top notch. Beds were super comfortable. Host was very responsive.

Lovely location, secluded in the forested mountains but still close to restaurants and shopping/recreation areas. Top notch staycation destination, with updated interiors that do not leave you wanting.
