    Great getaway place for a couple. It's small, compact, but that makes it cozy. It has everything you really need. Only thing is it doesn't have wi-fi access which would be nice, but cell reception is good in the area. We've stayed there twice and enjoyed it both times. We are a retired couple.

    Shelley was a very pleasant host who communicated with us quickly and made everything easy. We stayed in the Two bedroom cottage because the Chickadee cottage needed some work, and it was beautiful. Fully equipped kitchen, large shower and comfortable recliner chairs in the living room. It was a very comfortable and relaxing experience.

    While the cottage itself was nice, cute decor and all necessary amenities, it wasn't as secluded as we hoped. There is a busy road beside the cabin with many vehicles speeding past. The bed and pull out couch were more uncomfortable than sleeping on the floor. Also, the water has a disgusting smell and taste. Despite this, we made the best of our vacation. However, the host was terrible! Seemingly angry that she couldn't charge a pet fee for my service dog per ADA law, after several exchanges with her explaining the law and Vrbo policy. So the host falsely claimed damages after we checked out, attempted to charge me another way. This is appalling behavior, and completely discriminatory to the disabled.

    The cottage was very clean & cute. Loved the decor. My husband and I spent our anniversary there. We visited the Grand Canyon and enjoyed the foliage and the town of Wellsboro. We will definitely be back.

    This vacation space was beyond delightful. Everything we could have hoped for in a cabin getaway. The host was more than caring and hospitable. Probably the cleanest space rented. Nicely accommodated. Everything you need in the heart of PA beauty.

    I would have given a full 10 stars, but the water is what kept my visit from being perfect. I did get warning about the smell, so I brought a lot of bottled water, but it was difficult to even try to shower or brush my teeth because the smell and taste was so overwhelming. Other than that and being a little far from restaurants (several nearby ones were closed during my stay, so I had to drive out to find anywhere to eat), it was a very well kept cabin with all the essential amenities. I would recommend for future visits!

    The cabin itself was adorable. But the warning about the water is no joke. I know it is “normal” in that area for the water to smell of rotten eggs but you cant shower in it. I had to buy jugs to wash my face and brush my teeth, etc. There is NO way you will want to shower in it. I was greatful for the honest reviews were people warned us about it.

    First time staying at this adorable cottage and we loved it. From the cute accommodations, to the nightly deer sightings in the front yard while we sitting by the fire. We had a wonderful time and we will most certainly return.

    Very quaint cottage and well supplied. It definitely was a plus that it was dog friendly. We enjoyed exploring the town and trails with other family and our dogs and sitting around a fire in the evening. Would definitely recommend . Just a note would definitely help if there was some lighting on the porch and explain to bring your own wood ( which we did due to past stays elsewhere. Thank you to the host we definitely enjoyed our short stay !
