Very homie and comfortable. The place was clean and there was plenty of room for the 5 of us. The only complained was it was a little chilly in the morning and evening. The fireplace did take the chill off in the living room.

Nice property, easy to find, and overall great for our purpose.
Be great if you are a skier or going to lakes.

The house lovely and we had no issues. We had a nice weekend.

The host went ABOVE AND BEYOND for us! We moved from Arizona to Pennsylvania and our new home in PA wasn’t going to be ready for a few weeks. The host graciously allowed us to stay with our pets. We really appreciated her understanding and flexibility! Thank you again!

An older home that is clean and ready for guests. We needed a place located between Binghamton and Clarks Summit, and this place in Clifford fit the bill. Gina was timely in her communication and we were glad for the place to stay.
4.9
It was very satisfactory. The only issues we had was we couldn't figure out how to use the 'fireplace' plus the living room carpet had a easy to trip over ripple that we couldn't eliminate. Also, the steps are very steep with short treads and the bannister is too short.... doesn't go all the wat to the 1st floor nor to the 2nd floor. We are all in our 70's and 80's and appreciate using a bannister for balance.

Exceptionally clean and comfortable accommodations. Highly professional property manager. Will definitely return for next ski vacation.

We loved the house. The best sleep we have had being away from home. Communication with the host is fantastic if you need anything or have questions. We would stay here again.

This comfy little house provided hubby and I and our dog Mishka with a place to stay while renovations were being done to our home. It was close to our residence, conveniently located in the nearest little town of Clifford. The house was clean and cozy. Well stocked with essentials. We decided to take advantage of the fire pit on the patio and roasted marshmallows and made s’mores. Great fun. Gina was a great host, quickly responding to questions. Highly recommend this sweet little house to anyone looking for a home away from home stay.

We stayed here while in the area for skiing at Elk. It was a fabulous find! The house is very clean, and quite comfortable. The living room was perfect for relaxing, and the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals. The location is quite central - 15 minutes to just about everything, including restaurants, skiing, grocery stores, D&H trail access, etc. Gina and Brett have made the house feel homey - it was a great stay. Our only regret was that we couldn't use the backyard patio and firepit - the two inches of snow limited that. We will definitely be coming back next time.

Property is well kept & in a great location for those looking to get away or to ski at Elk Mountain. If your looking for Ultra Modern accommodations this may not be the fit but if cozy & comfortable is your vibe, you'll enjoy your stay. My party included six adults visiting family for Thanksgiving. We were happy with rental & would book again.

It's a very well maintained property with all the essentials you need, including coffee and a welcome bottle of wine! The host was very responsive and helpful

We were in town for my niece’s wedding and the Hidden Gem was perfect for our stay. The house was equipped with everything we needed, and even things we didn’t know we needed, but were there! The fire pit made for relaxing evenings.
We weren’t able to bring our dog this time, but we will next time- Gina even thinks of the doggies!
Gina was easy to communicate with and quick to respond. All around a great experience. We will definitely book again!

Place was very clean. Our only issue was no AC downstairs and we were in the middle of a heat wave! But other than that the place was great for what we needed.

Nice, comfortable home
Cute & comfortable! We stayed here while working nearby. The property was great for our needs.... plenty of parking, comfortable beds & easy communication with the host! We loved the backyard & fire pit... we enjoyed several nights out there.
The house was clean. Although, while making coffee on our 2nd day there we found old, wet coffee grounds still in the coffee maker from a past guest.... and unfortunately we found more than a few used plates and bowls that had been piled with the others in the cabinet. After finding that, we felt the need to wash everything before we used it. Being unable to run the dishwasher was a bit of a pain.
Overall the property was nice, beds were super comfortable and the yard was beautiful. We would stay here again!

Excellent Experience
Stayed one night and wished we could have stayed more. Property was very clean. Gina was great and very responsive. Love the backyard with fire pit and lights. Kitchen is well-stocked. Bed was very comfortable.

Cute home
Cute little home! Finding the place was easy. Walking around the house checking it out there seemed to be a few items left from previous person or possibly the host herself not sure. Not the best service but had Wi-Fi. There was no guestbook to tell you about the location and what’s around or how to clean up. She does send you an email of what to do before you leave however I did not get it until after I left. So I did as much reading up as I could or felt right without having instructions. We mainly used it to just have a place to sleep so not much time to hangout since we were there for a wedding. Overall a great place to stay.

What a wonderful stay we had here. The house is decorated perfectly. I felt calm the instant I walked in. The addition of an aromatherapy diffuser was so nice. I enjoyed using it each day, I loved all the little touches such as coffee with to go cups available, books and magazines and fans in every room! The backyard set up was great with room for all. Each of the 3 beds were comfortable for my family. The house is fantastic! Well done, I wish you could come and decorate my own house!

We had a great stay while in PA. They had a book for guests to write in (I was running a little late and couldn’t find a pen so I didn’t write in it) but we all enjoyed staying there. They had a bottle of wine for you to enjoy as well. Very clean and relaxing. The beds were very comfortable. Parking was our only issue. we parked on the grass between the house and the red building. First day we pulled in so our car was in line with the front of the house leaving a walkway behind the car, but because it had rained so much we got stuck in the mud as our car tires instantly sank in the grass. After we got out, we made sure we always had 2 wheels on the gravel and didn’t go all the way on the grass and we were fine. There’s room for 3 cars without any issues. They were always so quick to reply anytime I reached out to them. Thank you for letting us stay at your cute cottage
