Beautiful location and gracious hostess!

First of all, this listing does not do the property justice. The unit we stayed in was large, very clean and had all the amenities that we needed for our stay. The property is beautiful, between the lake and the lovely trails, I honestly cannot convey in words how great our stay was. Jillian is a wonderful hostess, who goes above and beyond to ensure your stay is great. I will absolutely be staying here again, and I highly recommend this to anyone looking to stay in the area. 10/10!

Felt like home

What a wonderful weekend we had using this space as a home base while visiting friends and family in the area. The cottage is warm and cozy. Had everything we needed. Loved the nature paths on the property- great way to start the day.

lovely and quirky

Beautiful setting and extremely comfy beds! My only disappointment was the lack of a distinct kitchen, but to be honest we were in a bit of a hurry, and I may not have read the description clearly enough.

Beautiful location

Great property, the host is incredibly responsive at all hours of the day. It is an older property, so had some issues when running multiple AC units during the recent heat wave, with the circuit breaker tripping a few times. The host fixed all issues each time something came up immediately. If you have little ones, she even offers a farm animal tour for those not familiar with the area.

For those who want to unwind from the city life, there is an unusual environment, peace, beauty, comfortable environment, the owner of the house is open-minded. The best recommendation from our family.

Quiet and convenient

Clean and comforable accommodations. Great location for exploring the area. Glider ride at Blairstown Airport was awesome. I could see the Manhattan skyline and we soared over the Delaware Water Gap. Tubing on the Delaware River out of Phillipsburg was a great time. Horseback riding at Top View Riding Ranch was also a fun and peaceful time.

Great stay!

Family from three states were visiting the area to spend time with grandparents. Booked the property due to location and it exceeded our expectations. We will definitely book again if we need overnight accommodations (we live an hour away).

Wonderful stay with amazing views. Owners was very helpful. Trails were a nice morning walk. My son enjoyed getting to meet the chickens & bunnies and the scavenger hunt before heading home. Definitely going to stay here again!

Excellent!

We needed a quiet place to stay that gave us the opportunity to swim and boat to our heart's content. Jillian told us places to go, and set us up with kayaking streamlining the process for us. The cottage was secluded, immaculate, and extremely sweet. We definitely plan to come again!

A Lovely weekend escape

The property is as advertised- Spacious and on a beautiful property. Jillian was communicative and answered all of my questions. The stream on the property was very serene. If you like being away from the hustle and bustle this is a great spot.
