We love the cozy home and property! The fire pit was so relaxing! It felt private and secluded even though there were other dwellings nearby. The home was decorated beautifully and it felt like home and they had anything we would want. We loved it!

Lovely place

Great place, very well cared for and immaculate! Had everything we needed in terms of supplies, and well-located for us. Mostly we spent the long weekend exploring the area: hiking through blooming mountain laurel, night skies at Cherry Springs Park, walking around Wellsboro, etc. Next time we'll do the rail trail. Thanks!!

The best!

I cannot find one thing I would need or ask to be changed about this cabin. Unless of coarse it could be picked up and placed on the river! 😉 Shelly was the best for answering questions or concerns. A very clean and comfortable place with attention to detail. Can’t wait to return next year! Thank you Shelly for making our vacation a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Maintained by Owners

The owners were the ones who clean and prepare betwen guests, while many such rentals are operated by a third party contracted by the owner. While neither way is wrong, the fact that Shelly and Lyle manage their own property says alot about the care and affection they feel for the place - and it showed! It felt like being a guest in somebody's home rather than just a rental property. Thought and care went into every decision. Very nice place, lovely setting. Considering renting again in the fall.

Weekend Getaway

This is our second time staying at sweet spot. This time we visited in the fall rather than the summer and it was just as nice as the first time. Everything is clean and everything in the description is there. We had a washout on Saturday so we visited some local bars and restaurants. The locals and other visitors are very friendly and great food for fair prices. We spent late afternoon and evening just at the cabin relaxing by the gas stove and listening to the rain and watching tv. If you like tv just wanted to say channels are very limited and it is not a smart tv. Would highly recommend this cabin and we are already looking forward to a 3rd visit!!

Beautiful property, tidy home and great homeowners

Shelly and Lyle have quite the little get away! We made many plans for our weekend stay, but found ourselves tucked in this hidden gem for majority of our time just relaxing. Upon leaving we had locked our keys in our vehicle and Lyle was quick to respond and help us out! Thanks again!

The cabin was just lovely, had all the comforts of home. Clean, comfortable and very quiet. Perfect location to the Grand Canyon of Pa and the cute town of Wellsboro. Loved the mountain location and a nice visit to the lumberjack museum was very educational. Would definitely stay here again.
