Cherry Springs Stargazer: Celestial Escape Awaits! l Sleep 6

House was very clean, close to the park, and convenient to all our activities. All the amenities were as described.There were two specific issues we encountered, and were so linked to the structure of the house that it didn’t make sense to reach out to management.The toilet was set in a kind of alcove in the bathroom so small that it was impossible to sit down on. It would not be an issue for children but for a full sized man my shoulders would not fit between the two walls.Second, the wooden steps leading to the front door were so weathered that they had completely disconnected from the house, and seesawed as you were walking up and down. Only one person could go up or down at a time. The handrails were barely attached to the steps. It was honestly dangerous, especially carrying luggage or at night.

We had a great stay here. The host was very friendly and upfront about a potential problem with the refrigerator but she went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. The outside of the cabin looks quite worn down, but she’s clearly put so much love and work in the interiors and refurbishing them. Everything was very comfortable. While the weather was not clear enough for us to utilize the fire pits, they would be very fun for families and there is a decent size yard of grass for the kids to run around or to set up cornhole, etc. The only downside is that it’s on a very busy section of roadway and the truck noise is quite loud and traffic is heavy from 6 AM until 8 PM.

We had a wonderful stay at this property! We were there to stargaze at Cherry Springs state park and this house was a short 15-minute drive. We were able to stay up late at the park and drive back quickly when we were done.Inside the home is beautiful and very comfortable! They provide everything you need. The kitchen had everything you needed for cooking and cleaning, the bathroom had a few choices of bath products and plenty of towels and the bedrooms were nicely furnished with sheets and pillows. Jenn is a wonderful host and was there on the property to help if needed. All of the information for the Wifi and phone number were left to get us going.The only reason I gave this a four instead of a five was the front porch of the property left a little to be desired and needs some attention. The front screen door was very dirty and broken. We were there on two very unusually hot days there and the air condition had a little trouble keeping up. One more window unit in the second bedroom would have been perfect. Lastly, the listing gave the impression that this was a house and not a on a property of other cabins. There wasn't a yard to sit in, the back of the property was a stoned round about driveway where the cars for other cabins were parked. Then the cabins were all in a line facing the house. I was hoping for a little more privacy to sit out when we got back from Cherry Springs at night.

First of all, we received an email confirmation that our stay was approved---BUT, we were not told what cabin number, or anything about the code for entering the cabin. There was NO PHONE NUMBER listed for us to reach anyone. We got there, but there was no one there to help us. We had no idea which cabin we had or how to enter. We were fortunate that one of the cabins had a fellow who helped us get in touch with someone so that we could find the cabin we were registered for. The outside property was a horrible mess. The grass was not mowed; the sign for the facility was broken and was lying on the ground. The porch was in need of paint and the steps were a bit loose. I was wearing a boot for my ankle and had trouble with the steps. We had trouble finding the facility because the sign was down on the ground. Weeds were everywhere. Inside, the place looked very nice and clean, but the smell of mold/mildew was strong when we entered. There was a sign on the refrigerator saying that it was just repaired, but the ice maker in the fridge and the water dispenser did not work. The air conditioning in the living room was faulty. It needed a filter change, which affected it and it ran only every now and then, causing the room to feel humid and uncomfortable. The bathroom exhaust fan was not working at all. There were many nice choices with body wash, shampoo and conditioners, but many (almost half) of the containers were empty. We spent over $400.00 for the two nights!

Great location, very clean, great host
