Great Cabin!

Cabin was exactly as advertised, Actually the pics don't even do it justice, I was impressed of how beautiful it was inside and out. Staff was very easy to contact and very pleasant to work with. We had a great weekend and will definitely be back!

Over all it was a pleasant stay. We didn’t stay there all day since we came in only for my daughter’s graduation and we only got to spend the night there but i feel that for the price we pay for that the cabin should be more clean. We had to clean it at soon as we came in. And that we should have being told that we needed sheets and towels. We had to go and buy everything!!!

Beautiful Nature

Gorgeous location! Spacious and comfortable living area with large kitchen and bathroom for multiple people getting ready for a Penn State tailgate. Beautiful outdoor spaces to enjoy. Host went above and beyond to help us find the secluded location when GPS failed, and very responsive to all queries. Would love to return in better weather with more time to enjoy the property.

Simple stay

We were only looking for a place to sleep after dinner and before breakfast. We were going to noon game WE ARE! This cabin is fine. Make sure you read the fine print about needing all your bedding and pillows. Wish we had been able to find it during the day as it is secluded but that is not their fault.

Happy Weekend at the Cabin

Our family really enjoyed our weekend at the Hemlock House! It was really spacious! The grounds and property were beautiful, and the walk around the lake and woods was beautiful. We brought everything we needed because we weren’t sure what would be at available in the cabin, but there were all the things we needed, except the Keurig we brought. They even supplied the firewood, which we used due to the warming March! Dawn, Sharon, and Tim were all great, friendly, and helpful!! We would definitely stay again. We’d love to stay when everything is in bloom! Thanks so much!
