Great Place

Our family of 5 had a great weekend getaway! We were close to Shawnee State Park and not far from Old Bedford Village and Bedford itself. It was a cozy place for us to enjoy family time. The owners were super friendly!

Hidden Gem

The guest house is spacious and roomy . The kitchen has most everything you would need to cook. Hosts are more than happy to help with anything . We mostly enjoyed the porches and the cooler weather . Would recommend the guesthouse to anyone staying in the area .

The getaway

All very nice. Needs more light in the kitchen. Needs a toilet that's more of a high rise not a very low toilet. Owners are very nice. Trim bushes at satellite. TV had little service due to limbs/ leaves.

Way better than expected – a total treat!

My wife and I had an absolute blast in this cabin and in the surrounding [gorgeous] countryside. Our hosts couldn't have been more accommodating, including allowing us to check out late when we were a few minutes behind, as well as allowing us to use a nearby pavilion they personally owned. The house was immaculately clean and far more attractive in real life than the photos showed, and so was the exterior. We were expecting a nice, average cabin, but got much more than we bargained for! Thank you!

The cabin was absolutely perfect with all the extras I had forgot to pack. The interior decorations were amazing! The owners were so kind and accommodating. We went on a self guided covered bridge tour. The view from the front porch and sunroom off the master bedroom was breath taking! We will definitely be back!

Once upon a time…

The Pied Piper welcomed us to the property! Jay met me at the guest house, showed me in and around. He was extremely friendly and helpful. The property has great history that will take you a step back into the past. The guesthouse is warm and inviting with a Cozy fireplace. It is well decorated and maintained. The beds were comfortable and the porches had plenty of seating. Jay and Christine were readily available should you need them. FABULOUS

Charming Pennsylvania getaway

We loved this charming getaway in the hills of Pennsylvania. Close to lots of covered bridges, scenic drives, and the Flight 93 memorial. The hosts were super nice, but not tech savvy. Next time, we will know to call them directly after getting a reservation. Would definitely stay here again.

Family weekend

We were there in December for a family get together. My daughters boyfriend had planned to sleep on pull out couch but there were acorns and animal droppings on the sheets. Cute cabin but very dark inside. There was a sock on the table when we arrived and it wasn’t the cleanest. Lots of cobwebs. We received no check out instructions and tried to call house and cell phone before leaving with no response. I left a note about the acorns and droppings in the sheets. I then received an email with an apology but no refund of any kind even though we paid more for five guests and my youngest daughter had to share bedroom with my oldest daughter and her boyfriend.

Welcoming cabin near Blue Knob

We wanted a quick get away for the long weekend and try a new ski resort that we hadn’t experienced. We got in late and owners had fire going and lights on. It was a perfect start to a fun weekend. Blue Knob isn’t that far away - ski conditions were horrible due to weather but that is something you can’t plan for. Will stay here again when in the area. Thanks!

Peaceful stay

Absolutely loved our stay at The Guest House. The cabin is beautiful. Chris was easy to contact and we had no issues "checking in" or "checking out". The cabin was spotless when we got there and had everything we needed. It was extra cold the weekend we were there and it did take a little to heat the cabin but it wasn't a problem. We also had to look up the history of the cabin and the grounds it sits on. Overall it was perfect place to stay and we will definitely be staying again. Thanks Chris and Jay!
