About this property

Firetower Chalet: Majestic views+private 60 acres

Welcome to the Firetower Chalet, where classic family charm meets breathtaking countryside views! If you're longing to wake up to amazing vistas and immerse yourself in 70 acres of private Pennsylvania wilderness, look no further!

Our chalet draws inspiration from the fire watch towers found in the enchanting western forests. It's all yours to enjoy, and we've designed it with your comfort and joy in mind. On the first floor, you'll find a cozy living area equipped with comfy seating and a smart TV for your entertainment. The fully stocked kitchen is fit-for-a-chef, boasting a refrigerator, electric stove, oven, microwave, French press, Keurig, toaster, and waffle-maker. Oh, and don't forget the bathroom – it's got a spacious shower, sink, and toilet for your convenience.

Upstairs, the master bedroom awaits, showcasing a queen bed with a plush tuft and needle adaptive foam mattress. But the real showstopper is the jaw-dropping panoramic view of the Pennsylvania mountains and countryside, visible from the windows all around. Under the bed, we've stashed some drawers for your clothing and other essentials, including extra linens just in case. Need more space? Upstairs also has a delightful loft area, perfect for kids or another group, complete with a cozy carpet and a mattress.

And that's not all! Outside, you'll be enchanted by the wraparound balcony offering 360-degree views of the countryside – the perfect spot to create beautiful memories with your loved ones. And if you're up for a unique experience, explore our cable suspended bridge leading to a treehouse-style platform. Plus, there's a downstairs patio with an outdoor propane warmer, fire-pit, and a hammock – everything you need to unwind and bask in the beauty of nature.

On top of all this, the Firetower Chalet is nestled on 70 acres of pristine Pennsylvania countryside, waiting for you to explore. Wander along gentle hills, diverse terrains, and private wooded trails – perfect for hiking, biking, or cross-country skiing. Keep your eyes peeled for wildlife like deer, bear, and turkey, and enjoy the natural splendors of the gorgeous Susquehanna valley. It's a secluded and remote haven that promises to make your stay truly special.

Should you need anything or have any questions, we're just a message or call away. Your comfort and happiness are our top priorities!

Venturing beyond the chalet, you're just 3 minutes away from the vibrant town of Bloomsburg, offering diverse offerings, a top-rated theatre group, and activities at Bloomsburg University. And if you're looking for family fun, the #1 family amusement park in the country, Knoebels, is a mere 10-15 minutes away.

Getting to the property may be an adventure, but it's well worth it. Ideally, a 4-wheel drive vehicle is preferred, especially in inclement weather. But don't worry, if you don't have one, we can lend you our trusty farm truck. Two bikes are also available for your off-road explorations on the property.

The Firetower Chalet is a truly unique gem, a cozy retreat inspired by West coast firetowers, boasting all modern comforts. We're more than happy to provide you with information about the area and fun activities on-site.

Whether you're a couple seeking a romantic escape, a small family yearning for quality time, or an adventurous traveler in search of new horizons, our chalet welcomes you with open arms throughout the seasons. So, come and experience the magic of Central Pennsylvania in all its spring, summer, fall, and winter glory. We can't wait to share this enchanting experience with you!

At peace with nature

The perfect getaway to relax and enjoy time outdoors. We spent the entire three days walking the miles of private trails, sitting on the upstairs deck reading, and sitting around the fire pit at night stargazing and chatting. The host saw that we had everything necessary to create memories for years to come.

So close and so far away

The location is close to everything yet very secluded and relaxing. We stayed for graduation weekend at Bloomsburg University and truly enjoyed out stay. The host was very responsive and the upon arriving everything was well prepared and ready for our stay. I would stay at this property again and will recommend it to others staying in the area.

Great Getaway

My wife and I wanted to get away for a few days and this location did not disappoint. Easy in/out considering how private it is. We walked on one of the many tails on the property and really enjoyed the peace and quiet. The communication with Chris was simple and without delay. Bloomsburg is literally right up the road and has a quaint downtown with some restaurants. We also spent the day in Jim Thorpe and rode the train and walked around and visited a few shops and restaurants.

The house is on a beautiful piece of property. Very secluded yet you are only a mile from downtown Bloomsburg. Also, only a short ride to Ricketts Glen, which I highly recommend going to.

A Resplendent Respite

This property is as beautiful as the pictures show and exactly as advertised. It is the perfect place to unplug and recharge! The view from the deck is amazing, with the sunrise being a particular stunner. The host is very helpful and communicative. The Firetower itself was tidy and cozy with very thoughtful touches. Be prepared to welcome a family flock of wild turkeys wandering through the yard to join you for breakfast or meet some curious deer friends as you explore the property trails. :-)

In the Woods as Promised 🙂

The quiet, the woods, the morning sun greeting us - all we could have asked for in a retreat. We saw lots of wildlife and the view of the mountains was a mind painting we will take home. The Fire Tower was close to restaurants and anything you would need in Bloomsburg. We had two great days at Knoebels Amusement Park my childhood Happy Place. It could be your adult version too!! Ricketts Glen State Park offered a challenging hike. Lots to do nearby with a cool property to explore.

About the host

Hosted by Chris D

Host profile image
My wife and two children love hosting guests and equally enjoy traveling to new places using VRBO and similar services. We have a tree farm where we built this cabin to enjoy the great property it sits on. We come up to the farm to have wonderful family time and explore the area. We have lived in the area for about 15 years having moved from the North Carolina area.

Why they chose this property

We built the firetower at our tree farm to enjoy more time at the farm. We took 3 years to make the cabin our own and are happy to share it with this wonderful community. This property is one of a kind and inspires many thoughts as you sit and relax in its wonderful spots.

What makes this property unique

The unique feature of this place is the tremendous views while laying in bed in all directions. The outdoor space on the decks as well as the private 60 acres make it an extraordinary experience. It is an active tree farm so please enjoy the trees and get familar with the different species and varietals.
