Shelly and Lyle have quite the little get away! We made many plans for our weekend stay, but found ourselves tucked in this hidden gem for majority of our time just relaxing. Upon leaving we had locked our keys in our vehicle and Lyle was quick to respond and help us out! Thanks again!

The cabin was just lovely, had all the comforts of home. Clean, comfortable and very quiet. Perfect location to the Grand Canyon of Pa and the cute town of Wellsboro. Loved the mountain location and a nice visit to the lumberjack museum was very educational. Would definitely stay here again.

We love the cozy home and property! The fire pit was so relaxing! It felt private and secluded even though there were other dwellings nearby. The home was decorated beautifully and it felt like home and they had anything we would want. We loved it!
