About the host
Hosted by Kay
My husband and I love to stay at guest houses when we travel. When this property became available, we knew it would be the perfect spot for people to relax, unwind and enjoy nature. We have attempted to create a place of peace and calm for you and your friends.
Why they chose this property
We chose this property because of its seclusion, the lovely creek and the abundance of waterfowl and wildlife. Also the close proximity to a small town, is helpful.
What makes this property unique
If your idea of vacation is simply to relax, we've got you covered. From grilling & dining on the patio while watching the waterfowl on the creek, to resting in the hammock, to walking the long lane onto the private road that spills back into Newville, you can relax, out of the public's eye. A small peninsula on the property allows you a wonderful vantage point to watch the waterfowl on their terms in their habitat! If you're feeling adventurous, you can fish at the popular trout fishing spot, Laughlin Mill itself, or...wheel your car down the winding roads that follow Big Spring Creek to any of the number of fishing spots created for the public. If you need to stretch your legs, a trailhead for Rails To Trails is only 5 min. away on the southwest edge of town. 10 min. north or south on 233 puts you in either Tuscarora State Forest or Michaux State Forest, both of which will provide you an endless network of hiking trails. Roll east into Carlisle (car show mecca) & stroll streets lined w/ casual or fine dining experiences & curiosity shops. After all that, return to the House at Cool Springs to unwind! ABOUT the house.... ☆ King bed room w/ ensuite bathroom ☆Basement bedroom with a queen bed & twin XL bunk beds. ☆ 3 additional queen rooms OTHER ROOMS.... ☆A formal seating area w/ desk for study or writing. ☆A relaxing living room w/ comfy sofas & recliners & gas firepace. ☆A basement living room with sofas & reclining seats & toy area. ☆Compact laundry room with new front load washer & dryer. ☆Nicely stocked kitchen for all your cooking needs - •new cooktop •microwave •oven •2 refrigerator/ freezers •dishwasher •electric frying pan, blender, waffle maker, toaster, hand mixer, tableware & dishes, kettles & bakeware, dishes & glassware etc. •spice rack, oil & vinegar •large pantries for storing food & snacks ☆kitchen includes a dinette area with comfy bar stools by the windows overlooking the creek. ☆newly renovated garage- a beautiful multi functional space.
