Cute

My family loved this little cabin, even more than a hotel! It was clean and cozy. We loved the outside area as well. We played some corn hole and had a fire in the fire pit, roasted marshmallows and made s'mores. We will definitely stay again.

Great little gem

What a great little place to stay if you're in the area for some hiking! The check in process was easy and it has all the amenities you could need. The place was very clean, warm and welcoming. We had a fire one night on the patio and the bin was ready with wood, kindling and a lighter. We would definitely stay here again!

Ricketts Glen

Overall great experience at this property. Very convenient access to Ricketts Glen State Park and also local wineries/breweries. Property was very clean. HVAC units were a bit noisy for a light sleeper. Cornhole only had 3 good bags between 2 sets. Otherwise great experience and would definitely recommend staying here!

Long weekend

We had a very nice time at the cabin, the only issue was the shower handle was very hard to move. I'm not sure if it was mineral build up or not, but it was very difficult to turn. Other than that, it was a great place to stay.

Cute little cabin

The cabin was very cute and cozy. Only issue is the Wifi is horrible there ! You don’t get your check in code until an hour before check in and then the Wi-Fi was horrible so it took me awhile to get the message that had the code. Maybe that’s the hint to just relax and unplug in this beautiful place.

Bed bugs

We booked for 3 Nights but only stayed 1 night due to bed bugs. I kindly asked for the remaining trip to be refunded and we were offered another cabin after we noticed the bed was loaded with bed bugs. I asked why would you want to infect another cabin🤦🏻‍♀️ We stayed in cabin 5. Upon leaving we had to disinfect all our things and car. Our vacation was cut short and we were never refunded for the lost time. We also received multiple bites on us. I took pictures and videos. The woman who came to check the room even agreed they were bed bugs. I had to contact an attorney. Save yourself the time and money stay elsewhere..

Rickett's Glen State Park Escape

This property is outstanding. The unit has everything you need, is very clean and just a short drive to Rickett's Glen State Park. The picnic are with covered patio and fire pit is a wonderful touch. The owners were great to work with as we had to cancel our original dates due to a medical emergency.

I was amazed by how roomy it was, it was perfect! I loved everything about our “little house”

We had an amazing time visiting! Everything was perfect and so beautiful! Very affordable! The only thing that would have made it more pleasurable would have been more local places to eat/stay open later. I know a lot of places closed down because of Covid and I feel bad for folks that had to close up shop

Perfect for the occasion

We were looking for a perfect spot to stay close to ricketts glen state park, and it could not have been better. Being 15 minutes from the park the lodge was so cute and clean, and we will definitely be recommending this place for all friends, family, or anyone looking for a good place to stay in this area!
