Melissa was amazing! Super accommodating and the house was lovely. The kitchen is well appointed, anything you could need. The location is great, not far off of the main road, but you feel secluded. The house sits right on a great trial, had we brought our bikes, you could ride to a brewery. Thanks for an excellent weekend trip!!

Perfect location

We were in town for graduation at Clarion and this was the perfect place to stay. From morning coffee on the front porch and walking the bike trail to cooking on the grill and fires at night in the fire pit, this place has it all. The location is so private yet close to the college and our favorite spot Deer Creek Winery! Lovely decor inside this amazing house.

Girls weekend.

We went for a girls get away and this was a perfect place. No neighbors but yet close enough to town. Love to be able to walk the property and took some amazing pictures. This is a great get away if looking for a place off the beaten path. Would recommend it to anyone that likes the wilderness.

Loved it

The place was beautiful, clean and peaceful. My only suggestions would be to upgrade at least one bed to a queen for larger people. My stepdad is 6' "3" and had a bit of a hard time fitting in the bed. And some larger furniture in the sitting room. It really was a great place though and I will recommend it and may stay again myself if we go back to the area.

Perfect Farm House

We loved this house! The weather was not kind to us but we had the lovely front porch to sit on to make up for that. The rain finally stopped and we got to enjoy the fire pit and star gaze! We loved how close it is to the bike trail which was one of our main reasons for staying here. If we come to this area again we would love to stay here again!

Great place to stay!

Beautiful property with everything you need and more. Just as advertised. We rented this to go 4-wheeling at the Allegheny National Forest. Was a bit of a haul to get to trail heads but that’s what we did. The only small inconvenience was not having mirrors in bedrooms. When 4 people need to get ready to out to dinner.

Can’t wait to return!

We planned this weekend stay about a month in advance & Melissa was very easy to contact with any questions while we were planning. Once we arrived, we felt right at home. The home is so nicely decorated, very comfortable feel, & secluded. It had everything we needed, plus things we didn’t even realize we might need! We spent a majority of our time sitting around a fire, but the one morning it rained we thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the front porch to watch the storm roll through. My 8 year olds favorite part was all of the places to hide for hide & seek! We’re hoping to return here in the spring for another visit!

Perfect spot for Rail 66 & Cook Forest! Bike & hike in the great outdoors!

Exceptionally clean, cozy, and everything you need other than your personal belongings! Just a nicely decorated place to stay if you plan to do anything in the area. The owners thought of everything. It was so well stocked with paper & cleaning products, well supplied kitchen with some of the essentials like spices, tea & coffee, sugar & butter, plus all you need to have a campfire. They didn't skimp on the quality of the bedding & towels either. Thank you to Mike & Melissa for making our 1st time to the area a wonderful experience. You certainly deserve the title "super hosts"! We plan to return to do more biking and hiking!
