About Charlie Schaefer
I spent my summers from the time I was 2 at the property until graduating from college. My Dad would send my Mom, Brother and I here as soon as school ended. When I moved to Philadelphia, We came on weekends where my children who got to enjoy some of the same things that I did growing up. They learned to Ski at the local Ski areas and to enjoy some of the outdoor activities I came back to live here in 2008 to take care of my Mom in her final years and decided to stay and fix the place up. My business as a consultant affords me the pleasure of working from home, when not at a Client's site
Charlie Schaefer purchased this Farmhouse in 2010
Why Charlie Schaefer chose Pleasant Mount
I purchased the house from the estate in 2010, added a three car garage and apartment in 2012 that is connected to the house at the end of the back porch with a separate entrance, which I live in. I completely gutted the original house and renovated it with the goal to use for family, friends and as a vacation rental that was completed in April of 2014. It is a great place to get away from the city as we did for years. Less than 3 hours from NYC and Philadelphia
What makes this Farmhouse unique
The winter sports and summer outdoor activities make the location a great place to get away for a weekend to a week. The remodeling has all the modern conveniences of your home.

Great place, great area, great owner!
Thanks Robert, Also thanks for leaving the property in great shape
Country getaway
This place was the perfect place for what we were looking for! My 3 teenage sons and my sons friend spent a week at this beautiful, very accommodating home. It was very private and a peaceful place to escape the busy NY life. The boys Loved dirt bike riding and ATV ing through the trails right behind the house. We all agreed that we would definitely return again.
Thanks for the kind words, hope to get to meet you next time
Excellent
The location is great and the house is spotless. It was everything we hoped for to spend time in the country with easy access to a small town. The owner was a real gentleman and very accommodating.
Thanks for the kind words, hope to see you again

Thanks for respecting the property and leaving the house in great shape for housekeeping. hope to see you all again
Awesome experience!
My fiancé and I, along with three other couples, took a riders weekend up by Charlie. The property was awesome and riders from all levels had a good time. The house was beautiful and well stocked, twenty minutes from a Super Walmart, and one minute from a hometown restaurant. Charlie was welcoming, showed us around the whole property and answered all or questions and then some! Great experience- we hope to be back next year :)
Thanks for the kind works and the respect to the property
Great weekend getaway!
Charlie made us feel right at home from the moment we got there. The house was beautiful and well taken care of! We rented ATVs and had a blast on the trails! Would highly recommend and will definitely be back to visit soon!!
Glad you had good weather and a good time. Thanks for leaving the house in great shape. Looking forward to seeing you guys again
