The Pines

Review Submitted: 06/21/11
For 4 weeks "The Pines" was our home away from home. We were in the area on a long term business trip and this property was much better than staying in a hotel. The cabin was very nice and roomy for the three of us. We enjoyed the ammenities of the cabin along with walking the property and fishing in the pond. Thanks to Newton and his team for everything!

Seven of us stayed at the cabin for our annual "fishing" weekend, and could not have been happier. The cabin was perfect, and the solitude was exactly what we were looking for. We caught several different species of fish in the pond, including bass & catfish. Of course we put them back for the next time! We can't wait to go back in the fall. Newton & Flavio- thanks for everything, we really enjoyed it!
Owner response:Thanks Tom, I am waiting for you in November. Take care!

Mountain Solitude

Review Submitted: 03/21/11
We enjoyed a wonderful winter getaway at the Pines. The property is truly unique with no close neighbors and full access to a great property with hiking\snowshoe trails and a pond. The house can sleep a lot of folks and has all the amenties you could want - hot tub on the second floor overlooking the mountains and the pond; satellite TV; two stone, woodburning fireplaces and a lovely porch with a scenic view. The house is an easy 30 minutes from Elk Mountain and 5 minutes from the Rail Trail. We plan on returning in the Fall to enjoy the foliage and a bonfire in the Pavillion adjacent to the pond.
Owner response:Thanks Stuart, It was a pleasure having you guys at the The Pines. We will be here whenever you guys need. Take Care!

Really enjoyed our stay at the house. There was plenty of room for our group of 6. Could easily fit a group of 10 or up. We were there primarily to ski at nearby Elk Mountain and the lodge was a short drive to the slopes. The amenities were great and we did not have any problems with the unit. Would definitely recommend to others.

The house and property were very nice for a weekend for me and my friends who needed a place to stay while skiing at Elk Mountain. The cabin was cozy, and there was space for tons more people than we brought. I would definitely rent this house again for another weekend!
Owner response:Thank you, We will be waiting for you next year with new updates to the house. Thanks again.

The Pines

Review Submitted: 01/01/11
We enjoyed our stay! The home is large and roomy with great views of the countryside. I agree with the previous guest. The furniture and flooring need to be updated. The house was clean and warm. We were on a ski vacation (Elk Mountain). If you would include the fastest directions to Elk, that would be helpful for future guests. Most trips to Elk took 40 min. until we discovered that 171 to 92 only took 30 min. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

beautiful setting

I had to rent a house quickly near Lanesboro, PA. Our family Thanksgiving at my in-laws has grown substantially over the last few years. To have a little peace and quiet, I found a house within 10 minutes. The setting was perfect. My son and his cousins loved exploring the pond and the woods. The greeting of wild turkeys and deer every morning was a nice touch. One day it snowed and the hills looked magical. The furniture and fixtures could use a little updating, but the house was clean and solid. It took only 10 minutes for the house to heat up and it remained comfortable throughout our stay. We will definitely rent this property again.
Owner response:Thanks Steve, We are already working on the updates, next year when you come we will have the wood floor instead of the carpet in the living area. See you next year!
