Mona and Bryson are the greatest hosts.
I have stayed at many properties throughout the years but no one compares to them and their properties
I highly recommend any of their rentals.
They go the extra mile to make your stay as wonderful as possible.
From fresh cut flowers on the table, to all the spices needed to cook.
This property is a little piece of heaven.
Warm and cozy ❤️ can’t wait to go back
Thanks so much Mona and Bryson!

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay here. We wanted to get away to celebrate our anniversary, and couldn’t have chosen a nicer property that is wheelchair accessible. It was very nice to be without internet for a couple days and just focus on each other and nature. We especially loved the huge deck in the back, both of us love birds and there are a lot of them back there, we even saw an eagle! I am hoping to go back someday and venture out more!

We loved our stay here!! The cabin is wonderfully isolated, quite, and incredibly charming. Check in was easy, we had everything we needed during our stay (very well stocked kitchen), and the scenery was beautiful. Would definitely come again!

We would stay here again if we came back to the Fort Hill area.

We really enjoyed our time at your cottage. We especially enjoyed sitting on the covered deck, because it was raining at times, watching the many birds that visited the bird feeders you had up. We even saw a woodpecker. The cottage is nicely decorated, clean and well stocked with supplies you may need. We would definitely like to visit again.

This property was the perfect place to get away for a quiet, relaxing, unplugged weekend. We went hiking in Ohiopyle which j
Was only about 20 minutes away. The deck was great place to relax, read, and watch the birds. It rained for some of our stay but because they had a covered deck we could still enjoy the outdoors and it was that much more relaxing to sit and listen to the rain.
Thanks again for sharing your beautiful home!

Terrific location to visit Ohiopyle State Park, the Flight 93 Memorial, Falling Water, and Kentuck Knob. The cottage is well appointed and the elevated deck is a wonderful place to watch birds, chipmunks, and squirrels. Highly recommend.

Beatiful peaceful place to unwind. Relaxing.

The cottage is well-designed and appointed for 2 people. It is easy to relax inside when too cool to sit outside on the large deck facing the woods overlooking the babbling brook.

The cottage was a great place to stay hunkered down In during a windstorm that came through Friday and Saturday.. many trees down .. but the cottage and especially back deck seeing all nature has to offer was a perfect place of solace to ride out the storm!

Cozy and private cabin with all the amenities we needed. It's a short drive to great cross country skiing and a wonderful place to come back and relax in next to the gas fireplace. We especially loved watching the birds visiting the feeders in the morning. This is one of the nicest VRBOs we have found - clean, welcoming, a real home-away-from home feeling. We will definitely be back her.

This is a great private retreat to enjoy nature and to take a pause on the high-tech life! Beautiful big windows bring nature in without going out when it’s cold! Mona was extremely helpful when we had a snag in getting to the place and worked with us. Communication was great! Thanks Mona!

We really enjoyed our stay at this cabin. The cabin was very clean, with many amenities such as cooking essentials, board games, and plenty of DVDs. The setting in the woods is wonderful, very quiet and peaceful. We really enjoyed watching all the birds on the large covered deck. Also, the cabin was very close to the Great Allegheny Passage trail and all the outdoors activities in the Ohiopyle / Laurel Highlands area. We would love to stay here again!

As repeat visitors, this cottage never fails to be the perfect place to unwind, birdwatch, or travel a short distance to go biking on the rail trails. We really love this little cottage!

Love to go back!!
The cabin was a wonderful getaway! It was furnished with all you need and more. If you want too cook, the kitchen is fully furnished. Perfect back porch for watching the birds, relaxing and grilling. It was near the activities we had planned… Falling Water, Ohiopyle and we drove into Deep Creek MD

Fantastic weekend!
Stayed at the Woodland Cabin a few times. It's one of our favorite places to go. We like that it's close to the GAP trail and very quiet and secluded. Mona and Bryon are great hosts, always making sure the cabin is clean and well supplied. We enjoy sitting on the deck watching the birds at the feeders and lightening bugs come out in the evening. Sunsets and the trains in the valley. Going back in the fall to experience the season at the cabin.

Most Relaxing Place to Hang Your Hat
Mona and Bryon's Woodland Cottage is cozy, clean, and cute. It's a pretty open floor plan, with so many windows that you'll feel extra close to nature while bathing in the sunlight. Rain or shine, winter or summer, this remains my favorite place for a getaway (this was maybe my 7th visit?). Also, it is a perfectly quiet area.
The house is just up the road from a nice parking lot for the GAP trail and there are plenty of places close by for a great hike (like Mt. Davis). Lots to check out in this part of PA, though hanging out on deck with the birds makes it hard to leave the space!
