Relax. Refresh. Reconnect ~~

We welcome you to Clover's Cottage, where you can relax, refresh, and reconnect with those you love. Located on more than four quiet acres in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, Clover's Cottage is available to rent – for two nights or many nights – you decide how much peaceful respite you seek.

1st Floor -

Clover’s Cottage was converted from an old flax mill built sometime around 1887 and sits along a stream and pond. The first floor boasts a cozy and well-equipped eat-in kitchen, a laundry room, and a convenient half-bathroom. There is also a comfortable and rustic living room with a wood fireplace built from old reclaimed schoolhouse bricks. Because of its origin, the first floor is built from local field stones and has 18' thick walls (no need for air conditioning!) and a counter made from a huge cast metal slab from the original flax grinding equipment.

2nd Floor -

The second floor opens to a small sitting room surrounded by three bedrooms. Each room is decorated in warm earthy tones and local antiques that evoke country charm and a restful atmosphere.

The sitting room has original wide plank floors and is a great place to sit and enjoy a book or and opens to an expansive deck that overlooks the stocked pond. The deck is an expansive 10' X 36' and includes seating and a small bar.

The luxurious and spacious Jack-and-Jill bathroom is nestled BETWEEN two bedrooms, a layout typical of homes of this age (Note that you must go through a bedroom to enter the bathroom). It evokes a feeling of a country spa, with a beautifully restored claw foot soaking tub that allows for complete relaxation. There is also a walk-in shower large enough for two, with a bench and rain shower head. A towel warmer awaits you after bathing, providing the best of modern-day comforts with timeless rustic treasures.

The large primary bedroom offers a queen bed, dresser, closet, and a day bed that can be utilized for lounging or sleeping. A large table at one end of the room allows you to enjoy card games, crafts, or conversation with family and friends. An exterior bedroom door leads to the deck..

The second bedroom has a double bed with a dresser, nightstand, and original wide plank floors. This room also has a closet and an entrance to the bathroom.

The third bedroom has a set of bunk beds with twin mattresses, a dresser, entrance to the bathroom, and original wide plank floors.

Please note that in addition to accepting the terms of our listing at the time of booking, guests will be forwarded an email with a link to digitally sign our rental agreement and upload a copy of the primary guest's government-issued photo ID with address (e.g. driver's license). This helps protect our guests and us from fraudulent identity theft.

A true getaway
A VRBO that actually has amenities and feels like a lived-in house. The best part about the cabin was that it is actually remote. Nestled off of a slightly busier road on a private drive. You can get true privacy there. The additional online paperwork at the beginning was the only downside but that's a small price to pay.

Clover's Cottage is a beautiful pocket of heaven. So peaceful and relaxing. We barely left the property. It was perfect for the whole family. Fishing, canoeing, just taking in the country air. It's the perfect place for a family getaway or a romantic weekend. We can't wait to stay here again.

Hidden fees for basic services
The home and property were nice but we were bombarded with numerous rules and regulations. Fines were tied to all of the rules. We were charged $90. for excessive internet usage. We followed the guidelines but were still charged. I attempted to resolve the issue but the owner would not help me. This was so disappointing.

Nice, quiet getaway
Our family loved being able to enjoy the quiet space outside! By mid afternoon the deck was in total shade, so it was a very pleasant space to lounge and listen to the sounds of outdoors. The space outside could use some care, as the grass, pond, and landscaping is quite overgrown. It also wasn't as easy to access the stream or Pine Creek as we thought it would be, but we were able to figure it out. Overall, a pleasant time spent getting away from the normal pace of life.

New Year Getaway
Clover's Cottage was the perfect place to relax, refresh, and reconnect after the stress of 2020 and the rush of the Christmas holiday. The property is private and very quiet with a small stream and a large pond. Since our visit was in the winter, we did not get to enjoy the outside as much as we would have if we had come in a different season, but we enjoyed being outside on the days weather permitted. I loved the front porch swing, which reminded me of my childhood home. I loved the 18" thick stone walls on the first floor and the brick wood burning fireplace. When we were not able to be outside, we spent our days by the fireplace reading books. We would spend our evenings on the second floor in the master bedroom playing cards, dice, and board games. We even had an opportunity to watch a few movies from the DVD collection. The master bathroom was spacious. Loved the heated tile floor and rain head shower. I appreciated the labels and signs posted on cabinets, doors, and around the house. The owners were also easy to communicate with before and during our rental. I had a lot of questions about the property as we have a senior dog with bad hips/back, so I need to make sure whatever home we rent will be suitable for her. The owners were gracious enough to allow us an early check-in, but due to some unexpected issues on our end, we did not arrive until after 4 p.m. On NYE, my husband, dog, and I went out on the expansive deck to look at the beautiful stars and full moon when we realized the sliding glass door had locked behind us, leaving us literally out in the cold. Just one more little trick 2020 had in store for us. Thankfully I had taken my phone outside so I was able to text the owners - who immediately sent someone over to assist us to gain entry back into the house with plenty of time to still bring in the New Year! Thank you for opening up your home and allowing us a few days to relax and prepare for 2021!

Jeeper Getaway
Clovers Cottage is a cute home. Plenty of room for 2 couples & a few kids comfortably.. if they had one more double or full bed it could accommodate a 3rd couple better. There is room in the larger room for another twin or 2 to make for a family & the smaller room a double to accommodate a couple. The one bathroom/shower is between the 2 smaller rooms.. you have to walk through either one of the bedrooms to access it. So we had to make a schedule to use it, as the 2nd toilet downstairs was out of order due to unforeseen septic/drain field issues from the eminence amount of rain the area has had. (Yes.. they are currently working on correcting the this, but it is not an overnight fix as we all know) This caused the only bathroom to be high traffic & walking through an occupied bedroom while someone was sleeping or changing a bit of a challenge. Also, only 1 shower available with the # of us was a challenge to use the bathroom at times. We were asked to conserve water with dishes.. laundry.. ect.. as the tank is limited at this time with issues they are working on. But, we managed to work with it & the owner Tina was ABSOLUTELY wonderful keeping it emptied & us up to date on what was going on. She expressed that it should be completed later this summer. Tina was VERY upfront with the septic issues before we arrived, as well. Gave us an option to change our plans without penalties. If we decided to stay that we would be short the one bathroom & on a water conservation to the best of our abilities. We opted to give it a shot. It all worked out. The cottage had just about everything we needed, tons of kitchen utensils, laundry, bedding, hot tub, videos for kids, firepit .. we even attempted the mandatory recycling they had. (We could of used a list of what plastics are acceptable for the area.. ect.. but we did our best)😁 Definitely a nice place to stay. We are Jeepers & were there to see the 2 offroad parks AOAA & Rausch. AOAA we all agreed was more fun & better wheeling.. besides the fact it is closer to this cottage. We would come back & stay here to go to AOAA again. Bonus is we also all have furbabies & Tina allows for dogs here. Lots of space to run outside. PLEASE respect this!! If you do bring your dogs, clean up after them & follow her rules!! This is a privilege that she allows guests to bring them to stay here. I hope she will continue to do so. Tina is very responsive & respectful owner. It was a pleasure renting.

Why they chose this property

From the moment you come down the lane to Clover’s Cottage, you will begin to breathe more gently, slow your heart rate, and remove yourself fully from the hustle and bustle of your daily life. As you walk down the sidewalk to the cottage, you may notice the covered front porch swing, the picnic table where you'll enjoy an evening dinner or the open campfire and comfy chairs for storytelling and s'mores. A closer look may reveal the original working hand well pump where children can have hours of fun. A small dock makes fishing easy and a supply of firewood awaits you in the woodshed ($).

This is only the beginning of what Clover's Cottage has to offer. There are quiet walks down the path to Pine Creek, where you can swim or float, or stick closer to home and listen to nature babble in the little brook right outside the front door. There is a canoe to float on the small pond or a covered footbridge to explore the nearby woods to search for signs of deer, turkeys, and other hidden animals. Pick some blueberries or wild raspberries for your breakfast cereal or take a walk down some of the many miles of country roads surrounding the property.

Clover’s Cottage was converted from an old flax mill built sometime around 1887 and sits along a stream and pond. The first floor boasts a cozy and well-equipped eat-in kitchen, a laundry room, and a convenient half-bathroom. There is also a comfortable and rustic living room with a
