Such a beautiful space tucked away in the woods! The home had everything we needed and was full of charm and thoughtful details. It was close enough to enjoy many of the local attractions, yet so inviting that we spent plenty of time enjoying the home and property. I hope we can return someday! Thanks, Angie!

Best equipped kitchen in all my years of booking on VRBO. Beautifully appointed. Easy operation of all technology. Just a gorgeous home. Folks not as steady on their feet should be mindful of the steepness of the path up to the trail and I recommend actual hiking boots/shoes over sneakers! And watch the bottom of the drive turning right onto Pennsy Rd. Bottomed out a bit.

We had an absolutely delightful stay! Everything was perfect and as described. We particularly enjoyed the large windows overlooking the property that allowed us to see the dozen or so deer that visited daily. The property was quiet, the beds were extremely comfortable, and we could not have been more relaxed while staying here!

Great property! The host really makes sure that you have everything! The house is spacious and has a great view. Did not love the giant scary mountain driveway but it was fine. Maybe a mirror on the tree across from the turnout could help better see around the curve. Hot tub was lovely and the view of the stars was fantastic. Great weekend getaway with our friends.

We had the most amazing stay at Pennsy Ridge Hideaway. The house is incredibly spacious, beautifully decorated, and pristine. The kitchen was well-supplied, so much so that we were able to make a delicious Christmas dinner. The hot tub was a bonus, and the sunrises and sunsets were just gorgeous!

The place was clean and comfortable, and we enjoyed our stay. The only downside was communication — the host ghosted me after promising to refund the pet fee, and I had to involve Vrbo to resolve it. Otherwise, the stay itself was nice.
