About this property
Magical Clarion County Church Renovation
A very romantic space! The perfect atmosphere for the writer or artist.The large, open great room is inviting for yoga and exercise practice. A former church, this renovation has maintained a peaceful and meditative quality.A good place to make or listen to music. .Small back porch with a table and chairs.,Dogs are very welcome and the back porch area has a fenced in area they seem to like!!!!.Pretty bathroom with shower. The kitchen counter was once the counter in the old country store in the village of Lawsonham.The woodwork is beautiful and the high ceilings give one the feeling of freedom .The many windows invite the outside in. Come and rest a while, create, enjoy! So very close to the Lawsonham Rails to Trails entrance.Great opportunity for hiking and bicycling.!

Great stay! Well furnished, close to some great hiking. I also appreciated how private the space is. It really was a restful, slow couple of days. The owner is friendly and approachable, but not intrusive.
Great space. Outside was quiet relaxing. We saw a bear our first night, then deer and bunnies. The stars were beautiful and lightening bugs were in full affect. Inside provided a cool atmosphere and was welcoming. Beautiful renovation!
This amazing place was exactly what I needed. I had a long weekend "silent solo retreat" and all I did was play with all my neglected art supplies. It was a beautiful and peaceful place and I'm so glad I found it. I am looking forward to coming back.
We love staying in this church! It’s great for a long weekend. We cook, we hike, we laugh, we solve puzzles! And we refresh. I can’t say enough about this place! We love it!
Everything about our stay was outstanding! The house was unique, comfortable, well-equipped and relaxing. The location is quiet and relatively secluded, with friendly little towns and great food just a short hop in any direction. Just an all-around great experience!
Mary was an excellent host and the sweetest woman. She called us before our arrival so she could meet us there and let us in, then called again just as we were about to leave to wish us safe travels. The entire property is gorgeous and well kept. Will definitely book this one again.
The church is delightful. We loved the feeling of time and history there. The space has a wonderful feel to it, and the outside spaces are delightful as well. The stone circle is also great. I got some wonderful pictures of one of the dogs in the stone circle and both dogs on the nearby trail playing in the creek. It was a short but wonderful stay!
We've stayed here before, and it's our first choice for coming back to. If you're looking for a large, quiet, well-appointed place isolated from a lot of the rest of the world - there is a road nearby, this place is for you.

just what we wanted
The place was delightful, and just what we were looking for - quiet, reasonably secluded, and in a good location. There's plenty around for nature lovers to explore.
We really enjoyed our stay. We did some bike riding on nearby trails, visited nearby towns, hiked through Cook Forest, and spent much downtime with our 2 dogs on the property. Our dogs loved the yard and fenced in area. They enjoyed their time as much as we did!
This is such a unique and clearly loved property. Lots of interesting furniture and art, but not in a stuffy way! It was extremely comfortable and cozy for my husband and I and our pup! Highly recommend.
This little renovated church is perfection. It is by far the best VRBO I have stayed at! The well stocked kitchen makes for easy cooking and the small library has a fun selection! Wi-Fi is spot on and fast for this rural location. I can’t wait to go back!
We had so much fun it reminded us of our separate childhoods. The grounds and pathways behind the church were straight out of a storybook. Absolutely incredible untouched piece of heaven. We came on a beautiful week where the sun was shining and the grass was green. Mary was wonderful and showed us her Incredible art collection. 75/5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The property is beautifully remodeled by Mary and her brother, and their personal touches throughout the property are unique and creative. The location is within a short drive of great hiking spots and local restaurants in the area. The only feedback we have relates to the mattress in the main bedroom; it would be worthwhile to upgrade the bed to be more comfortable and less "springy" with noise.
This is our second time staying at this lovely, place. Mary is so welcoming to her absolutely beautiful property. The entire vibe to the building, the surrounding grounds, the various towns a few miles down the road feels like home. The only downside is that it isn’t closer for us to get to more often. Our pups enjoy being”country dogs” for a few days too. We cannot speak more highly of our time here. It’s just simply good for the heart, mind and the soul.
