Almost everything was excellent. I was a little disappointed that one of the oars was broken and there was no propane for the grill, but everything else was great!

I'm sorry to hear everything want perfect on your trip. I wish you would have messaged me as we have refill for propane on hand in basement and several backup paddles. Thanks and hope to see you in the future. Chris
On top of this place being thoroughly enjoyable, including the fire pit, the walk down to the creek, the creek itself, the properties cleanliness, the enjoyable covered back porch, the owner of the property was super helpful! I had a problem with my payment method and he was patient and considerate as I worked out the issue. This was a long anticipated trip so his patience was greatly appreciated. The state was absolutely great! If you have a chance, by all means avail yourself of this wonderful quiet property.
We enjoyed a long weekend at this cute little cabin. The outdoor space was great, and we enjoyed the proximity to Knoebels and Rickett’s Glen State Park.

Thanks for your visit. Wow you did it all Knoebels, Ricketts Glen and Little League World Series. Thanks for your visit.
Our family stayed in the home for a few days and was exactly what we needed to rest and recharge! Enjoyed the creek front, fire pit and sitting on deck playing games and enjoying each other’s company
Thank you for sharing your beautiful mountain retreat with us! The thoughtful touches upon arrival made us feel so welcome. We loved exploring Ricketts Glen, the Switchback Trail, the creek, and ending our days with a cozy mountainside bonfire. The views were breathtaking, and our fur child had the best time too! We will definitely be back.
We enjoyed our stay at Chris's place. It was super clean. We really liked the trail behind the house down to the creek, and so did our dogs! The house is less than 30 minutes from Ricketts Glen State Park, which was great too.
A perfect get away to meet up with family. We especially enjoyed kayaking on beautiful Huntington Creek. playing games, jamming on the guitars, and just relaxing on the back porch overlooking the forest. The gas log fireplace was great to have on chilly mornings and evenings. The cabin was well appointed with updated kitchen and bathroom. Chris was a very helpful host. We hope to return next year for a longer stay.
Absolutely beautiful & clean home which was perfect for a wknd away with friends. Owner was quick to respond to questions prior to trip and even while traveling. Great location - found a great hike Friday and then spent the day at Ricketts Glen. Highly recommend & will come back to visit again.

Thanks and yes Ricketts glen and surrounding hikes are beautiful. Dont forget the mountain just across the road is thousands of acres of state game lands and neat to hike.
My siblings, spouse and I stayed for a long weekend. We really enjoyed use of the fire pit and switchback path to the creek. The home was very clean and well stocked with extra cozy blankets. I'd love to go back during warmer weather to take advantage of the kayaks.
The location was amazing. We loved the hike down to the water! This home had everything we needed and was exceptionally clean. The owners recommended a local fair that we had not known about and we had such a fun time. Beautiful memories made with my family and would not hesitate to visit again.
We stayed here for my daughter's Bloomsburg graduation. We enjoyed relaxing and grilling on the deck. Kids had fun kayaking and fishing in the creek. Very comfortable and clean.
The cottage/bungalow was spacious and comfortable. Very well decorated and clean. Lovely after long days of hiking! Would love to return!
