Very comfortable stay. The house has been renovated inside, modern lighting, rooms were nicely done, bathrooms were nice, kitchen has everything you would need and then some (I always bring hot sauce along, for my eggs in the morning, but this home not only had hot sauce, but 4 different choices, that was awesome). Coffee station was well supplied, and with good coffee. Firepit out back was well supplied, and there are tools for making smores. Very nice place. Just a few minutes walks to the East Broad Top Railroad (you can see, and hear, the engine prepping in the morning, that was pretty cool). Nice porch out front as well. Real nice place to stay.
