The Cottage at Howard Falls

Experience a stay at the historic Cottage at Howard Falls in Girard. Located above Howard Falls, the largest waterfall in Northwestern PA, this cozy cottage features a spacious, open kitchen and dining room, a cozy living room, and a lower-level bedroom with a walkout patio offering stunning views of the Falls. Falls Run, which flows behind the cottage, cascades 50 feet over Howard Falls before joining Elk Creek, just two miles to the north.

This delightful cottage serves as a perfect retreat for guests. It includes one bedroom with a full-size bed, a well-equipped bathroom with a tub/shower combo, and charming amenities throughout. The property is ideal for a relaxing getaway, allowing you to fully enjoy your time in the countryside.

Please note that the bedroom is located on the lower level and is accessible via a spiral staircase. We do not recommend booking a stay for guests with mobility issues. Access to the base of Howard Falls is not available. Additionally, the cottage is a duplex, with the south side rented to full-time residents.
