Outdoor porch fireplace was absolutely amazing ! Ease of use, convenience, kitchen ! Loved everything ! Only thing I would change would be the toilet seat back to the more common kind. Not complaining because everything else was absolutely amazing! Cooked all meals either on the grill or in the fireplace !

We so appreciate your kind review. We feel it’s appropriate to provide free firewood for guests so that you can have a wonderful experience of having a cozy fire in either the living room fireplace or the one under the front porch. We are glad you had a good time at our cabin and hope you’ll come again.

The house is amazing! It has so much to offer. The scenery,the peaceful surroundings. It was like a home away from home and our little king charles felt right at home. The benches out by the outside fireplace reminded me of the ones my parents had. We really had a nice time.

Communication and flexibility were top-notch. The cabin was beautiful plenty of beds no TV so you were able to completely unplug.. very private the dogs enjoyed being able to run. Location was about 30 to 45 minutes from so many hiking trails and overlooks. Beautiful mountain views plenty of firewood to keep the fireplace burning inside and outside our entire stay! thank you again for a wonderful experience!

About the host

Hosted by Annie Yoder

Host profile image
Our dog and boy love visiting our cabin as much as we do. We love getting back to our Amish roots and making jam and canning vegetables. This cabin is a quiet place with room to have a large family gathering on the deck. We love spending time with family here, playing games, baking cookies, walking the property with our dog.

Why they chose this property

My husband grew up across the mountain in the small town of Belleville, PA. We wanted a place to call our own when we visit family in the area and found an excellent Amish craftsman to build a cabin for us that will be around long after we are gone.

What makes this property unique

The huge deck with great views of the mountain really set our place apart from others in the area. The inside and outside custom stone fireplaces are a unique feature as well. Not far from the highway, but feels very isolated and peaceful.
