Lovely Stay Near EBT Railroad

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely home during our visit to the EBT railroad. The host provided refreshments and breakfast items that made for easy mornings. Being able to see the train go by the house was a cool perk. The house is spotless and very well maintained. All in all a very nice stay and highly recommended!

loved the house and location close to my family for our yearly reunion. the stairs were a little tough for us old people, that was the only small disadvantage, but still loved and enjoyed the house, location. thanks for making it available, the little ones loved hearing and seeing the train go by so close

A great home to visit!

The house has great character and charm. We watched the East Broad Top Christmas train go by each night which added to the experience. The house is very clean and well appointed. The hosts made the entire stay a pleasure.
