Why Lyle and Shelly Wattles chose Gaines
With almost one half an acre, you can enjoy the mountain views and relaxing atmosphere in side or out all year long. The full ring fire pit is available for a summertime campfire. Only a few minutes to fine dining and kayak/canoe rentals. Although we are not right on Pine Creek, it's views are right across the road.

This was our first time visiting this area. We used as a base for hiking, Bike Rental is nearby (within a couple of miles of PA Grand Canyon Rail Trail)
Night skies at Cherry Springs State Park was very enjoyable experience.
Sweet Spot was perfect for what we were looking for ! Owners had a nice collection of local books, maps. Those were helpful in deciding what to do or see.
Thanks!

What a cute place! We all enjoyed the way it was decorated and provided such a warm feeling! The bed was like laying in cotton in the middle of the mountains. The owners were delightful people and very responsive when asking questions. We enjoyed having a bbq on the beautiful property. It was more than what you could ask for the price and we will definitely being coming back again.

My stay here was excellent and very relaxing. The home was perfect. It’s close to the main road which gives you access to the major attractions. Pine Creek Outfitters is an excellent place to go if you wish to rent bikes, kayaks, and or canoes.
The home was very quaint, very clean, fresh, and the amenities were new. They even have a stacked washer and dryer.
One suggestion for future visitors. Please make sure you get directions from the owners prior to your arrival. Once you get within a few miles of the location their directions are more precise than the GPS.
Again, my stay was everything I hoped for. I would stay here again!

Outdoor recreation can be enjoyed right outside the cabin door. The roads along the drive to the cabin are open to ATV's. Fishing is very popular on Pine Creek with the season starting in April. When the creek is up to a 2.5 level many kayaks, rafts, and canoes will be traveling Pine Creek right past the cabin. There are two rental facilities within a five mile distance that carry kayaks, canoes, and bicycles along with all the accessories. The summer gives way to the Pine Creek Rail Trail which runs 62 miles and is a 7 mile drive from the cabin. Hiking and Bicycling are very popular on the trail during the spring, summer, and fall months. The fall foliage throughout the entire area has a spectacular effect on its viewers during the months of September and October. The Pennsylvania Grand Canyon can be seen from the west brim and is a 11.5 mile drive. The dark skies of Cherry Springs brings many area astronomers. Lyman Run State Park's lake is nestled within the Pennsylvania mountains. Many fisherman and kayakers enjoy the lake during the summer months. There is also a beach for swimming there.
Galeton is located ten miles away and has many unique shops right along Main Street (Route 6). Wellsboro is the county seat of Tioga County and is 15.3 miles from the cabin. There are many events throughout the year held there including Dickens of a Christmas in December and the famous Laurel Festival in June.
