Weekend stay i. The Wellsboro area. The Vogel Nest was a cute, clean,wonderful cottage. Beautifully decorated for the Holiday! Super clean. Cozy and romantic. Jim and Michelle were excellent hosts! Who doesn't love a man from Johnstown PA? We just can't say enough about this charming cottage. Than you Jim and Michelle for such a great cottage. A great weekend getaway!
I enjoyed my stay at the Vogels Nest. The cottage was beautifully decorated for Christmas. The fire was lit when I arrived which I did not expect. Everything was very cozy and comfy. It was a very peaceful stay. The owners were very nice and accomodating. They kept an eye on things during my stay to make sure I was comfortable. Thank you!
Great time at a cozy country cabin. We had a fun time in the Town of Wellsboro, it was nicely decorated for Christmas time. Hopefully we will be able to go back in better weather for some biking
Clean , cozy, quiet cottage… close to everything. Property owners are great people and very accommodating. We stayed in the cottage for Dickens Christmas weekend event that was held in Wellsboro. The cottage was decorated for Christmas and even had the fireplace going waiting for our arrival …what a great touch!!! Do not hesitate to book this cottage!
My wife and I spent the weekend here and it was a great little getaway. The cottage was all decorated for fall and was absolutely immaculate in terms of cleanliness. The owners live right next door and we could text or call them if we needed anything. It was also within 15-20 minutes of everything we wanted to do over the weekend so that made it super convenient. Highly recommend!
We loved our stsy and went away refreshed.
This is an absolutely beautiful and well maintained cottage right beside the Pine Creek Rails to Trails. It had all the amenities we needed and was very comfortable. The owners live next door and were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again!
We absolutely loved this place! It was super close to everywhere we wanted to go. The bike trail was right across the street. A 10 minute drive got you to the Pa Grand Canyon. We explored the gamelands too! Wellsboro was the perfect little town for a dinner and movie date night and it was only a 15 minute drive. Sitting on the porch and looking at the fall foliage was my favorite. Thank you for sharing your place with us.
October at the Grand Canyon of PA for hikers and bicyclers cannot be topped; as well, the Vogel Nest for two people, would be hard to beat. Nestled on a rural road, directly across from the Pine Creek Railtrail, we were able to take full advantage. The location was perfect for exploring both State Parks overlooking the Gorge, offering hiking and breathtaking vistas. Wellsboro is within 15 minutes where good restaurants and shopping are available. Truely a destination worth visiting
This was our second stay at Vogel’s Nest. It’s a great place to stay for riding the Pine Creek Trail, which we always enjoy. The house has all you need and more. We enjoyed sitting on the little front and grilling in the big side yard. Highly recommended.
It was really nice. It felt like you were home. Would recommend to anyone
Unbelievable… this little property is amazing! My wife and I have stayed in and around the Pine Creek area for 30 years. We watched the owner bring this cabin to life and could not have been more pleased with the result! Everything that you need it to be and more…perfect spot for all of your outdoor adventures to simply sitting on the beautiful front porch! Go and enjoy!
We talked about riding the Pine Creek trail for years and decided to do it and came across this cottage. What an excellent find. Literally a stone's throw from the best and most scenic part of the trail! The cottage was perfect. Clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Everything worked as it should. The history of the area and the cottage are really cool. The location can't be any better. Michelle was awesome host. Communicated well and made sure we had everything we needed. We rode and hiked nearly 100 miles during our time at the cottage. Nothing we would change. We will be back for sure! Thank you!
Great location on the bike trail and the perfect place to stay. Clean with everything you need.
This is such a lovely little cottage! And the location is perfect for exploring the Grand Canyon, biking, and sightseeing in Wellsboro. Wonderful for a weekend getaway (or longer)!
Beautiful, clean cottage. Close to restaurants, stores, attractions, hiking and bike trails, yet far enough out of town that it is very quiet. Loved sitting on the porch with morning coffee and in the evening just to relax. Very comfortable furniture: 2 soft leather recliners and a sofa! We had a fire in the fire ring one night. Jim and Michelle were great to communicate with, always got a quick response to text or email. This place is a 5 star plus place!!
