About this property

Peaceful Country Farmhouse Located in a Private Nature Setting

*IMPORTANT: Presently, there is no cable, dish or WiFi service, however, DVDs can be played on the TV. We do not have hidden fees in our pricing. We are pet friendly. There is a Pack and Play available. Tent camping is also available on our spacious lawn. For sleeping purposes, the home can accommodate 10 adults. Extra guests can camp out on the lawn if needed. For guests needing bedroom accommodations on the first floor, there is a pull-out couch that converts to a double bed, but please let us know beforehand if you will need it as we need to get it ready for your stay.

Inside
The home is two stories with 4 bedrooms: two bedrooms with a double bed in each; one bedroom with both a double and a single bed; and one bedroom with a single bed. Bedrooms are all on the second floor.

Outside
The visitor will travel over a grated bridge and then continue up a stone-covered lane until they reach a modest, white country home. The home is located on 12 acres of lawn and wooded property, which is enjoyed year round, with wildlife of various types seen daily, such as white-tail deer, squirrel, beaver and fowls that are native to the area. There is a brook that runs through the property, which flows into nearby Muggser Run, the confluence of which is also on the property. Wild trout inhabit the water and is ideal for patient fishermen.

Nearby
Approximately 1 1/2 miles away on White Church Road (At the end of the lane go straight, that will be White Church Road) is Ponduce Farm Market.

Also about 4 miles away in the village of Numidia (Turn right at the end of the driveway, travel on Bear Gap Road until it meets with Route 42. Turn left. That will take you into Numidia.) is Luna Pizzeria, which is located in the center of the village. The pizzeria also delivers.

The property has plenty of parking space for a variety of vehicles, and is located approximately 12 miles from downtown Bloomsburg (home of Bloomsburg University); 10 miles from Knoebels Amusement Resort; 8 miles from the Valley Gun and Country Club in Elysburg; and 17 miles from the Anthracite Outdoor Adventure Area (AOAA) in Coal Township.

Please take note: As of July 2019, fireworks are prohibited on the property as it is a heavily wooded area.

Family Time
Three generations of family celebrated Christmas. Loads of game time and a great space to chat. The country charm reminded me of my grandparent's farm house. Mary Jane responded so quickly to texts. We loved it.

Hunting Trip in 4E
The host was wonderful with information and her spirt was so refreshing. The house was going back in time on how Americans lived in the 1930+ century. Old school house and clean old school furniture. My three sons and myself loved it and were humbled. Fancy snoots would not like it because its not fancy. We had plenty of rooms and space to move around. Host should provide an information sheet on how to use things in the house. Gas heat, TV - VCR did not work, what to do when checking out. Lock doors? Key place meant. Fire pit was hard to start. Internet would be nice. Deer running through the yard and very quiet. We had a great experience, we will come back. Thanks

Cozy country home
Felt just like visiting grandma's house! Our family of 5 enjoyed the spacious house with more than enough room to relax both indoors and outdoors. It was great to be able to bring the dog with us. The yard was very peaceful and private, and it was a treat seeing a group of deer pass through each morning. This was our first time using Vrbo and staying at a privately owned property, and we're so glad we did. Definitely a better decision than getting a hotel nearby! We will definitely come back for another getaway in the future!

Old country farm house located in a rural area. Location worked well for us. We like to take day trips around the area. Good place to unplug and relax. Lots of running area for children or your fur babies. Mary Jane is quick to answer any questions that may arise and check in was a breeze.

Great getaway
Reminded me very much of my childhood home. Board games and a DVD player forced family time. Get the kids away from the screens and explore the outside nature and firepit. Even tried to fish with my youngest daughter. Way better than a hotel. Would stay again if able!

Mary Jane was a great hostess and pleasant to speak with before/after our stay. The home was cozy, comfortably slept 6 or more, and had an at-home feeling. The location was very peaceful with beautiful scenery, large yard and fire pit. The home has all the basics: bedding, towels, cooking utensils, coffee pot etc. For families who desire WiFi and cable, note that there is none (which was a lot of the appeal for us!) but there is a dvd player for movies.

We all loved this house!
We all loved the nostalgia in this amazing farmhouse. Theres tons of room, the place is huge! The grounds are fun for kids to walk around and explore. The antiques set about the house were great for us older adults to see and remember things. Unfortunately it rained the night we planned to use the fire pit but we made good use of the porch. The mids enjoyed playing on the piano. I was surprised how comfortable the pull out sofa bed was. Usually they are awful but myself and the baby and 1 of the 2 older kids (swapped nights) fit just fine and it was quite soft. The laundry room and jitchen were quite spacious as was the room we slept in (another livong room if nit needed for sleeping). We would definitely recommend this home for anyone looking tonstay closer to knobles! It really made going to the park so much more fun inly having to drive 10 min and the drive hoke wws way more enjoyable during the day rather then when your exhausted from a full day at the park!

Quiet Unique Getaway
The property is a quaint old farmhouse (which I thought would appeal to my husband). Plenty more bedrooms than we needed, so if your party is bigger, there's room. The VRBO listing is incorrect when it mentions Wi-Fi, there isn't any & signal is pretty spotty, so plan accordingly.

Cozy farmhouse. A step back in time.
Loved our stay at the farmhouse. It was like staying at Grandma's. Love all the old furnishings. The piano was wonderful to sit at and play hymns. We adored the Christian decor. The wildlife was a bonus! The hostess Mary Jane was excellent with everything. Especially quick to answer any questions. We will be back!
