Wellsboro weekend

Enjoyed our stay. Wifi was there, however you had to have streaming services on your own to sign in to. We were asked to remove our shoes upon entering, however the "mud" room was in another room. There was no where to hang coats other then the bedrooms. The steps were made of the same material that fire escapes are made with rubber coverings on most of the steps. There was no hand railing on the steps. As someone with bad knees and the wet leaves, it did not appear safe.

Weekend rental for Pine Creek Ultra marathon

Great cabin for the weekend. Had everything we needed. Clean, updated, and in great location. Everything you needed to know was laid out well in the welcome folder. Would definitely rent again if my legs ever recover from the 50 miles I ran.

Bike ride 2022

It was a very nice place the only things we could think that we didn’t like no doors in the bedrooms and the steps outside no handrail my sister fell and hit her head against the bench. No serious injuries but could’ve been.

Lovely stay in Pine Creek

We had a lovely time staying in this property. It was in a perfect location to visit Pine Creek Gorge and to walk parts of the Susquehannock Trail System. The property had everything it needed to be comfortable. We had a very peaceful stay!
