All the ladies had a great time. Extra bonus it snowed while we were there! The outside was just beautiful with the fresh snow. Can't wait to do it again.
We use this house several times a year for our Girls Quilting Retreat. It has plenty of room, the kitchen is easy to use, and it's quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of every day life. If I had a complaint, the chair for the kitchen table are coming apart, and need to be replaced. There are no towel bars in the bathrooms, and during the summer, we would really love air conditioning. We love this house so much, that's why we keep coming back several times a year!
This is not the first time we used this house. Several quilting ladies use the house for a quilt retreat and it is perfect for us. Large kitchen, two bathrooms, and plenty of sewing space, along with several bedrooms for the little bit of sleep that we get!!! We will be back several times next year. Dave and Mike are always very accommodating for all of our needs.
It was exactly what we expected. Room for the family.

Tucked away in the woods on top of a hill at the end of a long dirt driveway, this house was just what we were looking for. Close to Ricketts Glen State Park where we took three great hikes, including opening day of the falls trail, not to be missed. Also drove out to World’s End SP, another beautiful place to hike with very different scenery from Ricketts.Dave, the owner, was very responsive to a couple of issues we had at the start of our stay. The fireplace was GREAT. A really strong draft and the brickwork inside it made the room quite cozy, unlike other fireplaces that actually suck the heat out of the room. Very easy to get going.Nicely equipped kitchen and a lot of room everywhere. A little more furniture and some throw rugs, especially in the bedrooms, would be nice. But the location more than makes up for it. Truly enjoyed our stay.
