「リトルJ」で釣り／ジュニアタカレッジ＆ペンステート近くの居心地良いコテージ

Thanks kindly. This is exactly what we strive for. We look forward to hosting you again soon.

Thanks, Chris, It's our pleasure to be of service. We meet the nicest people sharing our legacy family cottage. You had a very late arrival, having traveled quite a distance. This was no problem for us. Your colleagues kept me informed along the road, and this is always helpful to us. We always try to meet our guests when they arrive (although it's not technically necessary). But going the extra mile, putting a face with a name is the sort of personal touch we've found our guests appreciate--personally letting them know we're at their service 24/7. We look forward to welcoming you back on your next visit to our region.

Thanks, Keith. Yes, our cottage has been a part of the family since 1902, and each successive family generation has nudged it along into the respective modern era. Somewhat fossilized in the mid-1950s (hence its lovable quirkiness), it's entirely livable as a long-term residence--although we much prefer to let it out for short stays like yours. We look forward to hosting you again soon.

Thanks, Terry, for your kind affirmations. Pleased to know it met your needs. You had amazing weather for your fishing outing. (Wish we could take credit for that.) We look forward to hosting you again soon.

So pleased, Dan, to have had the opportunity to host you and your family. We look forward to hosting you again on your next return to our region.

It was a pleasure meeting and hosting you at our cottage, Tom & Kevin. You were model guests. When things needed our attention, you reached out and gave us the opportunity to promptly address the matter. And you then let us know that all was in good order afterwards. We can't ask for any better communication than this. We are ten minutes from the property and always available to our guests 24/7. We look forward to hosting you again soon!

We make it a point to personally greet our guests whenever possible and to be available to them 24/7 for any needs that might arise during their stay. Our cottage is a third-generation legacy home that we love to share with family, friends and out-of-town guests--preserving it in much the same style as I have known it since the 1950s and continuing our decades-long tradition of hospitality. Thank you for appreciating this property as we do. We look forward to hosting you again soon.

Thank you. Danielle. Hospitality is what we do. We look forward to meeting each new guest who comes our way and being assured that all is in good order for them. If we can recommend a hiking trail, a fishing spot, a local restaurant, a museum... we're pleased to do that.

Reflecting on the many years we have been sharing our century-old legacy property, I think our greatest pleasure has been in meeting each new guest in person. We find it only right that, whenever possible, we take the time to briefly introduce ourselves to each new guest--adding a face and a voice to what might just otherwise just be an impersonal commercial transaction. Whether it be for a local family event needing extra housing, a memorable fishing experience on the Little J or a campus event at Penn State or Juniata College, we have so much enjoyed meeting the nicest folks. We look forward to serving you again on your next visit to our region.

Thanks, Don! Sorry too about the rain, Don... We know you were counting on some good fishing last week. When the river gets high at the last minute, as it did this week, we can sometimes work with VRBO to make a calendar adjustment and reschedule a booking upon request--even last minute. Alternatively, there are a good number of local and regional attractions that can make up for the disappointing weather: --an historic iron furnace in a local state park --the Altoona railroad history museum --an excursion on the East Broad Top steam train --hiking the Lower Trail or up the road into the Rothrock State Forest --or just enjoying the stillness of our cottage, listening to the rain on the roof I know you enjoyed several of these, and we were pleased to help with some ideas; it's what we do. We look forward to hosting you again soon.

Yes, Colin... My grandfather was not a man of great means -- lots of struggles just for life's basics; and this home was the crowning achievement of his life in his 40s. He lived there the last 10 years of his life. So there was just enough space in the design for basic life functions--cooking, eating and sleeping. His brother added the small panty sometime before 1920, and in the 1940s my dad created the pine paneled living from from the original two 12x12 bedrooms, adding the second floor in the 1960s. I closed in the front screened porch a few years back to make the 4-seasons porch you enjoyed so much. Thanks for loving enjoying our cottage as we have for so many decades.

Thanks, Christin. A pleasure meeting you and your family. Pleased that you were able to get some fishing and hiking in. Look forward to see you again soon.

Thanks, Joe. We look forward to hosting you again soon.

Thanks, Todd.. The house sits 100 yards from the river, just a 2 minute walk; and we live just ten minutes away--allowing us to be personally attentive to our guests 24/7. We look forward to hosting you again soon.

Pleased to have been of service, Tyler. We look forward to welcoming you and your family again soon.

We were happy have had the opportunity to host you and your family, Michael. Also pleased to learn that you found Spring Creek a good additional fishing option to the Little J which was running high this week with all the rain. We look forward to hosting you again soon.

Thanks, Tim. Our pleasure to have been of service. We meet the nicest people in this business.

Thanks, Jamie. We have become a frequent lodging choice for guests attending Penn State events. It's an quick and easy 40-50 minute drive on good roads into the Centre Region--one that many of our neighbors make daily. Thanks for your booking with us.

It was our pleasure to meet you both and to be your hosts. Our cottage is a legacy home now in the third generation of our family. Built as a very simple family residence in 1902--indeed not much more than a cabin then--it has undergone substantial transformation over the last 123 years--but without detracting from its original character. We are so happy that you found yourselves comfortably at home, and we look forward to hosting you again soon.

Thank you James! 120+ years of work, rework, modernizations, expansions, enhancements—coming now into the fourth generation. We love sharing it and seeing it freshly through the eyes of each of our guests. We look forward to welcoming you again!

Thanks, Emily, for trusting us with your young family. We look forward to welcoming you back soon for another fishing adventure on the Little Juniata. Our home is a 3rd generation, 120 year old family legacy property (albeit with some basic modernization--like electricity, plumbing, a/c and central heating). And yet we have deliberately preserved many of the original architectural features in the same state as they existed between the 1920s and 1950s--features that many of our guests tell us they find charming and fun. And so, yes, we acknowledge that kitchens of that era were not nearly as efficient to work in as we might be used to in 2025, and we can certainly appreciate that not every guest will be charmed by the opportunity we offer them to "step back in time", Your observations are still of high value to us, nonetheless. Thank you! Thank you, as well, for your observations on cost/value. This is helpful to us, given that our nightly rates currently vary semi-automatically by the season and in relationship to similar properties and regional market demand. (Mid week stays tend lower. Weekends and *especially holiday weekends* tend higher.) We suspect that you may well find our off-season, non-holiday and non-weekend rates a better value for your budget, as your travel schedules permit.

Thanks, Bob, for reviewing your stay. Pleased that you found our home to your liking and that you were able to relax (and to get in some fishing). We look forward to hosting you again.

Pleased to read that our home suited your plans for both fishing and Penn State football and that you found us well located for both activities. I commuted daily to campus from that house as a graduate student many years ago and wrote my dissertation in the peace and quiet of that living room. We hope to welcome you again soon.

We meet the nicest folks in this effort! Thanks, Mary, for taking the time to review your experience at our 120+ year old, legacy family home--in our family now going into the fourth generation. We love sharing it, meeting new people and enjoy connecting with our guests whenever possible. Our goal is always to provide personal service without being intrusive. So pleased to know you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to welcoming you back!
