Sawmill Lane Cottage: Family friendly spot in the woods at the base of Shade Mt

Drive past beautiful rolling hills and apple orchards to find out vintage cottage nestled in the woods. The Cottage on Sawmill Lane is the perfect location for a relaxing getaway. It features spacious common areas creatively built around the central core of a vintage single wide mobile home. A very relaxing, all season sunroom welcomes you to the Cottage. From there you’ll enter the kitchen, with a cozy nook for reading or playing with toys while Mom and Dad cook. To the left of the kitchen are two sleeping areas with the bathroom sandwiched between. The addition on the back of the Cottage is a large living room with vaulted ceiling, two sleeper sofas, a sliding door leading to the back deck, and a spiral staircase leading to a sleeping loft. The Cottage is located on Sawmill Lane, just off Heister Valley Rd, along Shade Mountain. It is a ten minute drive to Susquehanna University, 40 minutes to Bucknell University, 10 minutes to Shade Mountain Golf Course, 78 minutes to Penn State University, and just 5 minutes from thousands of acres of state forest land. The Cottage is situated on 150 acres of woodland, ideal for hiking, exploring and cross-country skiing. You’ll find a stream for wading, a firepit with firewood provided, a gas grill and abundant wildlife. The Cottage sleeps 6 comfortably. You’ll be pleased to discover this vacation spot that is rustic enough to be comfortable for families with kids and pets, but also cozy enough for a romantic getaway.

So comfortable and cozy
This place was just comfortable from the beginning. We had to contact the owners once and they responded within minutes. They were great. We had an amazing time hanging out by the fire pit, walking the trails and just reading by the water. Had everything you needed just bring clothes and food. We will hopefully be able to make it back some day.

Nice, quiet, peaceful
We had a very nice time, it was peaceful and relaxing. The place was spacious and had a cute little creek out back. There was a grill out back but unfortunately it didn’t work. We would definitely come back!

Cozy and Peaceful
Enjoyed our stay at Sawmill Lane. All was as advertised. Peaceful and quiet. Love the stream in the back yard. It was relaxing to sit on the swing and listen to the water and birds. The trails thru the woods were fun to walk.
