Riverfront cottage. Hiking, fishing, relaxing, pet friendly !

Enjoy nature on the river. Either at the picnic table by the fire ring, or inside this rustic cottage with knotty pine interior with screened in back porch, fireplace and Foosball table. Speaking of river , it's the best trout fishing spot on the river. You will love your stay at the Cozy Cottage on the Lehigh. Horses and snowmobiling allowed at Lackawanna state forest only 1/4 mile down the road. Close to many ski resorts. There are state forest and forest preserves all around the area great for hiking.

Such a delightful little place to get away for a long weekend. My husband and I enjoyed the surrounding nature, as well as the coziness of the cottage on a rainy day. The place had everything we needed for a comfortable stay!

Short getaway

It was a relaxing atmosphere, very private, and quiet. The thermostat was a bit annoying but beyond that the amenities were just fine and the linens were clean and the space was restful. Would book again.

Great little getaway

Everything was great, the cabin was the perfect little getaway from home. It was so relaxing being right by the water and sitting out on the porch. The owner was quickly responsive to any questions we had. Thanks for the stay!

Just what we needed after a busy holiday.

We booked our stay with intentions of relaxing and enjoying ourselves. The morning sun rising over the hills behind the river were wonderful. We also woke to some fresh snow. It was nice to be able to purchase wood at the property. 5 stars we will be back.

It's a nice, cozy little place on the water. Earl was very quickly responsive to anything that we needed. My husband and I got there a little early so we asked if we could get into the property sooner. He replied right away and informed us that the cleaning lady was still there, but would be done shortly. He messaged me when she was done and allowed us to go in. We had an issue with the TV working, and he guided us through it. He even had the neighbor "Manny" (a very nice individual) come help us. He figured it out for us pretty quickly. We were very pleased with everything. Would definitely go again. Thank you for your hospitality!

Great cabin in the woods

Booked a few nights at earls cabin to break up a long drive home. Had a very easy check in while arriving late and great communication from Earl. Cabin had everything you need for a comfortable stay. Right on the river with a beautiful view. There is a house next door very close to the cabin the neighbors were very nice but when sitting on the back porch / back yard they were very close so if your looking to be totally secluded its not but again neighbors were great and rive was beautiful. Good pick for a country stay.
