About this property

The Guest House

Cozy rustic cabin nestled in the Allegheny foothills with beautiful mountain views of Shawnee Lake. After you arrive, settle into the luxurious leather furniture in front of the gas fireplace with your favorite beverage. Outdoors, enjoy the sunrise or morning mists on one of the rockers on the 75-foot wrap around porch, or build memories with family and friends in the evenings around the fire ring. On crisp mornings, you will definitely appreciate the radiant floor heating. Although the cabin has a full kitchen, highly rated restaurants such as Jean Bonnet Tavern, 10/09 Kitchen, and LIFeSTYLE are just down the road. Located 8.5 miles from historic Bedford, fifteen miles from the Flight 93 Memorial, and within minutes of several ski resorts. We are not at our computer a lot so please call our home for questions or when arriving. 814-733-0119 Rate of $159 is based on double occupancy and 2 night minimum. Additional guests can be accommodated (up to 8 total) for $10 per guest per night. Located at 3569 Lincoln Highway, Schellsburg PA 15559

Wonderful spot, loved the decor and the coziness of the cabin. Loved the gas fireplace as well. Check in and out was so easy…our daughter arrived before we did and she was able to interact with the hosts over the phone to check in. Close to Flight 93 Memorial site which is a must visit!!

Tjhis is as shown, spacious and decorated in woodsy decor. It was inviting and fun. The fireplace wasn't needed because of the temps, but the views and the wrap-around porch give amazing views!The proximity of activities was perfect: orchards, covered bridges, Flight 93, and town.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The house was filthy. There were cobwebs and spiders in all the corners and behind the headboard. There were extension cords with multiple lamps and appliances plugged into it. We killed so many spiders it was scary. My husband got bitten by something overnight. The toilet is child sized, not meant for adults. We actually left a day early rather than spend another night with the spiders.

The guest house is spacious and roomy . The kitchen has most everything you would need to cook. Hosts are more than happy to help with anything . We mostly enjoyed the porches and the cooler weather . Would recommend the guesthouse to anyone staying in the area .

The cabin was absolutely perfect with all the extras I had forgot to pack. The interior decorations were amazing! The owners were so kind and accommodating. We went on a self guided covered bridge tour. The view from the front porch and sunroom off the master bedroom was breath taking! We will definitely be back!
