Everything about our visit was fantastic and the host was great with her communication and just a very unique place to stay for a getaway weekend. Very private and in the middle of the woods but fairly easy to find. We are definitely coming back and staying here again.

Well appointed and clean rooms. Excellent communication with Shanon. We truly enjoyed the fire ring and the provided wood and fire starters. We used it as jump off point for many of the beautiful hiking areas that surround Tamaqua. Great restaurants nearby.We hope to make this a regular getaway location.

House was great. Yard and setting is lovely. Gazebo is very enjoyable. House had all amenities. Hooks in the bathroom, hangers in the closet. While set away from the road, there was road noise. Also, not a walkable area. Location is great to visit Pottsville, Jim Thorpe and Hawk Mountain!

Perfect for our weekend trip! This place was clean, comfortable, and homey. It had everything we needed. We enjoyed the screen house and even saw some deer! The location was great for our trip to Hawk Mountain and we also went to Jim Thorpe for lunch and the scenic railway ride. We would love to come back again sometime!

This place was just what the doctor ordered. The property was very well kept and quiet. The house was one of the cleanest we've ever stayed in. All the amenities we needed were there minus the one thing i was looking for was a blender. Our family went there to celebrate the end of the jersey shore summer as we live there and work there. It was a much needed sit back, relax, unwind, and spend time with the family trip. The lawn games were so much fun and the pergola and fire pit was a huge bonus. We did not venture much into the town for anything but we went to a nearby coal mine no. 9 tour which i highly recommend. We also spent a day in a nearby town of Jim Thorpe which was also a vacation in its own. I can tell the property owners take great pride in their home. If we had any questions, there was immediate communication. We will definitely keep this place on our list to come back to.

This little home is situated in the woods behind the property owner's home. The home is well stocked and clean. The host was VERY responsive and very easy to work with. We did not use the outdoor amenities during our stay, which simply because we didn't have. Great home, great host, great rental experience!

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy house in the woods! The setting was peaceful and secluded, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. We loved sitting out by the fire pit in the evenings, and we even spotted deer wandering through the backyard, which made the experience feel extra special. The house itself was comfortable and well-equipped with everything we needed for our stay. If you’re looking for a quiet getaway surrounded by nature with all the right amenities, this is the place!

A loveky, quiet retreat!

The property is private, inviting, and super relaxing and comfortable inside and out. We were able to enjoy the firepit, use the well-stocked kitchen and grill, and enjoy the quiet. Sturgeon moon was a bonus, as well as morning coffee in the gazebo.WIFi worked, 2 bathrooms a huge plus. The home was as described, photos spit on.We will be back!
