Best VRBO I’ve stayed in yet
This is a beautifully maintained and obviously loved property. We were immediately impressed from the moment we walked in the door. Everything was spotless and placed with care. We had one small issue with the internet that was promptly fixed by the owner. What a guy! This really set the bar for vacation rentals. Will be staying at again!

A great VRBO house and hosts who go the extra mile
This VRBO home is always a great experience because of the character of the house and its unique location adjacent to the tracks of the East Broad Top train. The hosts pay exacting attention to all aspects of their guests' stay and comfort. The home is immaculate and provisioned with a generous supply of staples. I recommend most highly if your are staying in this part of Huntingdon County.

Great place needing a few minor improvements
Beautiful clean house. It's on a busy road that can get loud when you are outside. The little things: could use bedroom chairs, nightstands and lamps that can be turned out from the bed.

Reunion
We’re cityfolk who came to the country and it was amazing. The train that came by a few times a day was so much fun. Not having to bring a thing except our clothes was a huge plus. The snacks and the coffee included was great. We had a great time. A few of our other family members stayed about seven minutes up the road and we all got together there for a wonderful family reunion, it was a great time. Thank you very much.

A great home to visit!
The house has great character and charm. We watched the East Broad Top Christmas train go by each night which added to the experience. The house is very clean and well appointed. The hosts made the entire stay a pleasure.

Maybe one of my favorite stays ever! The house itself is an absolute gem and well appointed, and being able to have a camp fire and watch the trains pass was just a wonderful experience. Planning to book again next year!

Trackside Treasure
I am a regular VRBO user and this property nears the top of the list for setup, cleanliness and basic stock of supplies. The hosts were gracious enough to ensure that we had the basics for breakfast and that worked great to start our day. Rooms were comfortable and bathrooms worked well. The proximity to the EBT mainline was a tremendous factor in our enjoyment of the house. We will definitely rent again.
