The farm house is everything we hoped for. Perfect place to view the stars, and peaceful and quiet for a weekend with no devices. The hosts were very attentive and responded quickly to anything we needed.

The farmhouse was perfect for star gazing. The owner Benn and his family were very hospitable, responded quickly to my questions and provided us with good information about the area. We also enjoyed watching the sheep, horses, cows and Carlos the bull. Would definitely consider going again.

We enjoyed our stay very much. However the house needs some cleaning and the pots and pans need to be replaced.

Lovely stay

We loved staying at the farmhouse and being surrounded by nature and beautiful views. Walking the property, sitting on the porch, hanging around the Firepit and stargazing were highlights. We also visited Lyman Run for swimming and fishing.

Absolutely Amazing!!!

This house checked every box for us! We got to do some “glamping”and exploring the Potter/Tioga area. The proximity to Cherry Springs was perfect! Not too far, and just enough for the kids to be ready for bed. Owner is very responsive to questions and answers in a timely manner. Our kids absolutely loved it!!!
The kitchen cabinets are GORGEOUS!
This room was a perfect room to play games in.
The barn wood was my favorite!!

Wishing on a star

We loved our stay! We’ve been talking about seeing the stars in Cherry Springs for about two years and finally made the trip. Unfortunately due to the wildfire smoke, we didn’t get to see barely any stars but we had a blast regardless!

Thanksgiving family gathering

Warm and inviting home out in the country. House was clean and well maintained. We were charmed by the rustic but very comfortably equipped roomy house and the hospitality of the owners. Enjoyed the chickens roaming the yard and the beauty of nature all around. Definitely want to return!

Wonderful Location

We choose this location for a weekend getaway. The home was very clean and comfortable. The fresh baked bread and fresh eggs from Ben and Thankful was a nice touch. The view of the sky was exactly why we had chose this home. No need to go to Cherry Creek State park to view the skies. It was phenomenal and we cannot wait to return. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Lovely getaway with fire and friends

Super friendly dog was roaming the property and came up to us to be pet! (She wasn't wearing a collar but we assume she belongs to the farm.) Also cute cows <3

Spectacular

It is a beautiful property in a secluded scenic location. The host was extremely kind, helpful, and hospitable. We would love to return again soon. One thing to keep in mind is that since it is far, the cell phone service will be spotty and the WiFi not the fastest. But, assuming you're coming here, you're coming to enjoy nature and not netflix! PS. The chickens are AWESOME.

Awesome quiet and private location!

We stayed here for our annual fraternity brother fishing trip and were very impressed with the overall accommodations. The house slept 8 very comfortably and there was plenty of room for us all to sit around the dining room table for meals and card games. The fire pit is awesome and the big covered porch gave us plenty of outdoor space if it rained. At our age (70) the steps the the second floor (where all the bedrooms are located) were a little tricky (high risers) - but if you take your time you’ll be fine. Kitchen was very clean and well stocked. The star gazing was amazing (on the nights that were clear) and you could clearly see many satellites crossing with the naked eye. Hosts were very respectful and responsive. Highly recommend for families or larger groups.

Weekend away.

We had a lovely weekend despite the cloudy/rainy weather. We missed seeing stars but, weather is not predictable months out! Our only issue was the stairs. They were taller than present day stairs code for stairs. A bit of a challenge for a group of retired seniors.

Back again

This is the second time we stayed at this property! First time was a full moon and didnt see the stars we wanted. This time it was a new moon (no moonlight) and the stars were epic! We have decided to make this weekend trip every year. Bring your own food in a cooler because the grocery store is about 50 minutes away. Benn was great to work with. The house has the old haunted farm house charm we love!

Perfect For The Stars

We stayed at Benn's house over the weekend. We drove approximately 5 hours each way for this experience. Everything about his house is perfect. Everything that you would need is there. Including the chickens that keep you company. We were fortunate to have clear skies on Saturday night and words can't describe the stars. No need to go to the state park, just go the the fields around the house and enjoy. I met Benn and he was extremely helpful in everything we needed. We will definitely be back again. Thanks Benn

Spacious well-equipped farmhouse in tranquility

I was looking for a simple rental close to Cherry Springs to enjoy the dark skies of the region with my telescope. What I found was far beyond my expectations. The farmhouse was clearly recently renovated with newer appliances, DSL, and automatic fans in each bedroom to draw in the cool mountain air. I set up my telescope in the far corner of the back yard to gain full exposure to the southern skies which will amaze you from this location. Unfortunately it mostly rained but me, my son & my father-in-law were content to just relax on the excellent covered porches (side and front of house), feed the free-range chickens that roamed about, and drink in the tranquility. Benn was a very friendly and accommodating owner and I will no doubt return to this property.
