My Grandparents built and lived in this home. As children,my cousins and I spent countless hours in this house. Four of us got the spend the 2 nights there reminiscing about our youth and grandparents. The decor is nothing like what my Grandparents had. It is very eclectic. But the bones of the house were the same.

There’s no doubt that this location has beautiful views and it’s a one-of-kind home. The house is like a time capsule from 1950’s with a decor spanning multiple decades. When it was originally built, we can tell it must have been top of the line with high end touches. The layout is perfect for large groups with windows spanning almost end to end. Everything about the home and property lead to so many questions and interesting conversations. Like how did a plane and boat get on top of the mountain? Does someone really live in the Mansion? Was the house built by the Wise Chip Company for a large family or perhaps to replace the servant quarters? What is the deal with the hippie camper? It surely is a property to spark your imagination of the previous owners and how so many oddities arrived at this mountaintop location. With that being said, we were disappointed in the lack of information provided in the listing. Knowing in advance that the driveway was steep and mostly dirt would have been helpful. Luckily, we drove our truck but had it been my car, our trip would have been cancelled right away. We decided not to take food along and check out all the local restaurants in Berwick and Bloomsberg. The coming and going up and drown the driveway was frustrating for three meals a day. We could have stopped to get food to cook; however, finding mouse poop in the cabinets was too big of a gross factor. Nonetheless, we can see how there are so many great reviews. The pool area would be perfect in the Summer. The hot tub, fire pit and lookouts were great. Mana was very responsive anytime we contacted her. Ultimately, the view wasn’t enough to make up for what disappointed us, so we won’t be returning. It may not have been the right fit for us but don’t let that stop you from booking it. Our experience most certainly may not be yours.

This is our 3rd time staying at this property & we were finally able to enjoy the sauna ! This property is amazing. My children always look forward to “the big house” after our time at Knoebels.

Third time at this property and each visit we find something new!!! However, always clean and amenities amazing. One stop vacation venue, no need to stray off location. We met the pool attendant Josh, what a great guy as are Melissa and Mana. You will fall in love with the Wise Woodin Estate!!!!

Loved the pool and patio areas. House & grounds just amazing. The view---WOW We had a great time !

Our family was looking for a peaceful, relaxing vacation and this was perfect. We could all be together or each find our own place. Sun or shade was available depending on preference and the pool and hot tub were enjoyed by all every day. The views were even better than the pictures. It definitely was an unforgettable vacation.

Mountain Top Ranch House was a fantastic house and location for our family of 10 (3 generations, 4 kids under 8). If you are looking for a beautiful getaway all to yourselves this is the place for you. While the description and reviews of the house and view were favorable, I wasn’t prepared for just how lovely it would be! At arrival we were greeted with a very large shaded well-kept yard. Walking into the house the big bright living room with huge window and gorgeous view took our breath away. The size of the bedrooms was unexpected with room for all of us to be very comfortable. The pool, decks, and observation platforms felt like being at a resort. The VRBO pool pictures are not current, and you’ll find covered decks, even a two-story structure to sit by the pool or eat at picnic tables. There were endless treasures to find on the property: seating areas, statues, historic water tower, and of course the view. The kids loved the golf cart rides, the wind in their hair looking for wildlife. Remember this is a 1960’s house so bathrooms, kitchen and laundry are not modern, but clean. There are many decorative objects that your little ones need to be aware of being careful. I would definitely recommend.

Second year staying at this beautiful location. The only bummer was the pool liner was torn, so we were unable to use it. Looking forward to returning next year.

Great interior vibe....very interesting art pieces and retro milieu! Outdoor property was amazing, close to nature, quiet and serene....loved our stay :)🤗

We loved our stay here. The pictures do not do it justice. The home is spacious, beautiful and unique. The view is amazing. The hot tub was perfect to relax in while taking in the view. I can not say enough about this place- we didnt want to leave!

We had an excellent stay! There were 7 of us Bloomsburg Alumni, and we are all nurses. It was SO awesome to have a nice, quiet, BEAUTIFUL place to stay while we reunited and reconnected with one another. The view is incredible, it was very clean, and communication with Mana was very easy, fast, and quick. I highly recommend!

This house is great we where here 4 times and it is fabulous. The house is very clean, neat and provides all things you need. The view is absolutely gorgeous. If you have any answers she always replies. We loved this house to much.

Very comfortable and spacious Mid-century home with an unforgettable view

A great property with wonderful views! The hot tub was a perfect way to wind down at the end of the day.

This was our second visit here and we had a wonderful time yet again! The kids had tons to do - they especially loved the pool, the golf cart, and our nightly marshmallow roasting! Mana was extremely responsive every time we reached out. Thanks again!

Amazing

And it just keeps getting better and better. This is the third time that we’ve been to the Wise -Woodin Ranch and each time we go it just gets better. We love this place and can’t wait until we come back next summer.

This was our second stay on this property. Again did not disappoint . Mana and Melissa are wonderful hosts and respond immediately to any inquiry. The entire estate...the wonderful house that well suits our large family, with plenty of space for all, the game room, spectacular pool, grounds, fire pit, and other amenities, was everything we could hope for. We all had such a great time together, again. Looking forward to summer of 2022. Thank you. Meyer/Every family.

Our family loved this property as we spent our second time here. Mana & melissa went above and beyond with whatever we needed! We’re already booked for next year and we cannot wait !

This was our third trip to the Ranch House with our extended family. Property is beautiful, well maintained and clean. Plenty of room for all. Views are absolutely stunning! Sauna, pool, hot tub and pool table were used daily. Fire pit and golf cart were also in the mix. Meditation, reading and/or enjoying your morning coffee on the observation decks is a must. Above all is the laughter and love that shines when you reconnect your family. This is the perfect property to do that!

My family and I had an exceptional experience. From the second we walked in to the moment we left. Mana the property manager was more than accommodating and had great communication. The house and view were amazing. The pictures posted did not do it justice. The attention to detail in and out of the home were incredible. The moment we walked in we smelled the cleaning products used to disinfect. The drive up the mountain was fun and the pool/ amenities were great. Thank you for the accommodation. We will be booking for a longer stay next summer for sure.

This is our 2nd time in the house, we had a great time. So much fun and so much to do there, the pool is beautiful, the view is unreal , the golf car is the perfect touch. The only comment is - if you are relying on the WiFi , dont! (Super super slow)

Loved the house and grounds, absolutely gorgeous!

The view is amazing! Our crew especially loved the putting green and golf cart. Such a cool touch! We had a great time & are excited to return!

This was one of the best experiences my friends and family have ever experienced in a vacation home. I would definitely recommend this to everyone I know. This home has everything that you need and the view is amazing. I will definitely return during warmer weather. Thank you for this experience

Can’t say enough about how great the house and the space is. Lots of open air and space to roam, great amenities that we made lots of use of from the hot tub to the fireplace and fire pit to game room. Plenty of space and privacy when needed given the layout of the bedroom and the many bathrooms. Great weekend to get away from things and enjoy some open space and fresh air!

Was looking yet another winter to book the Poconos but due to Covid, all the typical locations were flooded with bookings and those that weren't were overpriced and didn't offer any good amenities which led me to branch out and how we stumbled on this place-- thanks Covid ;)Even though it's a big company family property, It isn't for those looking for hoity toity. It's not perfectly decorated or trendy, but to us it's much better! It was likely swanky in its day, with some 50s to 70s stylings. But that's what makes the whole experience great. The place is very large, lots of property, beautiful views and magic and fun finds around every corner. Each adult, teen and kid in our group of six found places to run off and do on our own (or together) within the safety of staying close by. You're secluded at the top of a mountain with a grand entrance, amazing neat finds on the property I'm not about to spoil for interested guests and every amenity you need for a fun summer or winter mini or full week stay. All I can say is let your hair down, relax and enjoy this one of a kind property. Plus per my subject, the woman who rented to us, Mana, was terrific, solved any questions quickly, provided great check in info, was relaxed about the process and let us simply enjoy, thanks!!

Spent a long weekend at this wonderful property with our adult children. Spacious home with bedrooms and bathrooms for each couple. Hiked at a nearby state park and came back to enjoy the spectacular view from the house. Next day we walked the grounds, enjoyed the hot tub and spent hours out by the fire pit. This property is perfect for a relaxing weekend or vacation!

My family had a fantastic time 3 day getaway. The pictures do not give justice to the property! Our 2 and 6 year old were never bored. The pool and hot tub were perfect. The golf cart was a fun treat. The home has plenty of space for a group! Mana was also quickly responsive to any questions before the trip. We would love to return next year!

It was my birthday getaway and we had so much fun with the family. We enjoyed everything: the view, the pool, the hot tub and sauna, the fireplace . I really recommend this place to everyone. It’s very clean , peaceful and unique . I only wish we could stay longer . Mana is very helpful host.

Mana was always amazingly prompt with her responses to any of our questions. No need to leave the wonderful property. We'll be back. Thank you!
