* Now Booking Fall - Enjoy the Reflection of the Foliage across the Lake *
Fantastic location directly on the waterfront of Lake Shehawken in Rural Pennsylvania. 60 acre spring fed lake adjoining two 400 acre farms. Nothing but tranquility surrounds. Minutes from Hancock, NY.
Recently renovated four season lakefront cottage has all the amenities to make your vacation comfortable. Walk down grassy slope directly to the waterfront.
Dock and boat privileges include: two row boats (one with electric trolling motor), canoe and small sailboat. This is a non-motorboat lake so you can enjoy the bucolic setting both day and night.
Swim from dock, or just lounge around in the shallows. Fish for bass, pickerel and panfish in the lake, or drive 10 minutes to world class fly fishing for wild brown and rainbow trout on the Delaware River.
House has newly renovated kitchen, and two newly renovated bathrooms (1 shower, 1 bathtub) and rental comes with clean white linens and towels. House has three bedrooms that sleeps six adults plus 4 children (full bed in each of three bedrooms, plus bunk beds in two of the larger rooms).
Lake Shehawken is a spring fed lake that has modest homes and cottages that have been owned by families for generations. The few renters tend to be families that come back year after year. Fantastic place to enjoy the solitude and relax.
Located in the North East corner of Wayne County, PA, just minutes from Hancock, NY (convergence of East and West Branches of Delaware River). Aproximately 3 hours door-to-door from NYC or Philadelphia.
No Smoking, No Pets, Thank You.
