We love the cozy home and property! The fire pit was so relaxing! It felt private and secluded even though there were other dwellings nearby. The home was decorated beautifully and it felt like home and they had anything we would want. We loved it!

Maintained by Owners
The owners were the ones who clean and prepare betwen guests, while many such rentals are operated by a third party contracted by the owner. While neither way is wrong, the fact that Shelly and Lyle manage their own property says alot about the care and affection they feel for the place - and it showed! It felt like being a guest in somebody's home rather than just a rental property. Thought and care went into every decision. Very nice place, lovely setting. Considering renting again in the fall.

Weekend Getaway
This is our second time staying at sweet spot. This time we visited in the fall rather than the summer and it was just as nice as the first time. Everything is clean and everything in the description is there. We had a washout on Saturday so we visited some local bars and restaurants. The locals and other visitors are very friendly and great food for fair prices. We spent late afternoon and evening just at the cabin relaxing by the gas stove and listening to the rain and watching tv. If you like tv just wanted to say channels are very limited and it is not a smart tv. Would highly recommend this cabin and we are already looking forward to a 3rd visit!!

Anniversary Get Away
Pine Creek Cabin was perfect for our 20th Anniversary. The cabin was impeccably clean and very cozy for two people. Everything you would need was in the cabin. All we had to do was show up with clothing. Shelly and Lyle were quick to respond and helpful with places to eat. In addition, the cabin was close to everything we wanted to do. We had a great time biking the Pine Creek Trail, visiting Wellsboro, and the two state parks. I would highly recommend that quaint cabin to all couples.

About the host

Hosted by Lyle and Shelly Wattles

Host profile image
We are Lyle and Shelly Wattles. We live near the camp and purchased the property to enjoy ourselves as well as rent to vacationers who love the area as much as we do. Shelly owns a real estate company in Galeton, Pine Creek Real Estate. We love all of the outdoor activities that the Pine Creek Valley has to offer. We hope to make your stay as enjoyable and comfortable as possible.

Why they chose this property

With almost one half an acre, you can enjoy the mountain views and relaxing atmosphere in side or out all year long. The full ring fire pit is available for a summertime campfire. Only a few minutes to fine dining and kayak/canoe rentals. Although we are not right on Pine Creek, it's views are right across the road.

What makes this property unique

Enjoy the peace and quiet that Sweet Spot has to offer. Take an early morning stroll on Lick Run Road right along Pine Creek. Lick Run Road is open to ATV's. There are maps at the cabin which show the trails where you can start right at the cabin and ride. We offer a cozy country cabin with wood floors and knotty pine open ceiling. The cabin is fully stocked with all of the cookware and utensils that you will need for a few night's stay.
