Remote Waterfall Cabin at Swiftwater Acres
Words do not describe the location. Take a few days, relax, eat at the Landing Steakhouse. Water wheel or Milford Diner for breakfast. Stop by Fox N Hare Brewery/ Pub. Then after all that sit on the deck watch the local wildlife sip your beverage of choice and take in the serenity of the stream and waterfall.

Tioga County Base-Camp - "Black Bear Hollow"
We had a great stay at David's cabin. We really enjoyed the beautiful back yard and spending time on the deck. Would love to visit again.

Grouseland's Pondside Vacation Cottage
We loved our short stay at Mason’s place!! We needed a peaceful getaway to just relax and it’s exactly what we needed. The hot tub was amazing, and we hiked all around the property and campgrounds! Had so much fun connecting with nature and relaxing. Also loved how many amenities, spices, oils, pots and pans, etc in the kitchen!!

Restored Barn - 44 Acres with 100 Acre Lake
FJ & Monika were wonderful hosts! They were great at accommodating us when we needed to check in a bit earlier than the usual permitted time. Their communication was great, and they were very helpful and friendly. They always made sure we had everything we could need. The barn itself is very beautiful. Everything was clean, and it was so spacious. The view was to die for. There were a lot of deer and other cute animals that stopped by- it was a very fun and welcomed surprise. They had space for a nice campfire, there’s a huge lake that they provided kayaks for, and fire places upstairs and downstairs. FJ & Monika also had a very detailed map/layout of the land, things to do, places to visit, supermarkets & stores, etc. it was a very helpful guide for our stay. Overall, we had a beautiful stay, & for sure plan to come back! This was our favorite stay we’ve ever done through AirBnb! Definitely worth every penny! We will be recommending our family & friends to come stay here! Thanks F&M!!

Bear Run Camp
Michael was an excellent host, he responded quickly to all of my messages & worked with me on last minute changes. The cabin was absolutely beautiful & the view, breathtaking. I highly recommend this mountain cabin for a relaxing escape.

Peaceful, authentic, rustic log cabin in the woods
This little cabin is serene and full of charm and character. The surroundings are beautiful and the space itself has everything you need to be comfortable. Easy to find with signage leading you to the cabin. The road is definitely an off road but even my mini cooper could handle it. Nice area for picnic and even a bench to watch the sunset. Adorable local touches sprinkled throughout the house. Overall wonderful stay, wish I could have spent more time there. Thanks Margy!

Pyle Cottage, circa 1750
This farmhouse is nothing short of extraordinary. The land is lovely, the house is gorgeous, and the animals are all so friendly. It is such a unique and historic building but everything inside is cozy and inviting. I cannot recommend this stay enough!

Creek Cottage, perfect getaway. Pets welcome
This was our second time at this property, and it will be our first choice any time we visit the area. It is so peaceful, great location to feel off the grid, but easily and quickly get to Harrisburg, Carlisle, and surrounding areas.
Getaways with jacuzzis in Pennsylvania

Quiet Cottage - Hot Tub and Creek mins from City
Lovely place and just as it was described. Cooked steak and shrimp on the grill one night and everything worked fantastic. Very close to town-ate out at the Altana Rooftop Lounge on Friday night and it was a very nice location downtown. The bed was firm and one of the most comfortable I’ve slept in (on the road) in years. The deck and hot tub facing the creek was perfect Overall a wonderful trip we look forward to coming back Thanks for being a great host!!

Round House with hot tub, 5 mins from Strasburg
This was a super fun and unique place! Would definitely recommend!

Cheerful 1-bedroom river cottage with hot tub
This was a lovely house with a beautiful, private backyard by a river. The inside of the home was pristine and there was not a single detail that Lori and John did not think of. I highly recommend this place for a peaceful couples’ retreat. I had an amazing time!

"The House On The Hill"-Private Setting, Hot Tub
My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Denise's Place. Check in was simple and she gave us easy to follow alternative direction to her place. It is an oasis on top of a hill! Her lovely home is situated on a beautifully maintained piece of property that is serene and welcoming. The inside is immaculate and inviting and we were even pleasantly surprised with a local homemade treat along with a lovely personal note. We truly felt welcomed and I highly recommend this place and would love to stay here again.

Glamping Cabin~Pool/HotTub~Gazebo 1.5~NYC/1~Philly
My wife and I had a LOVELY time! Intimate and relaxing space! Beautiful view! This is Glamping at its finest! Highly recommend for a romantic getaway!

Copper Flat Cottage
The cottage was the perfect little getaway for our anniversary trip. It was clean and cozy and Jessica added a lot of really sweet touches that made us feel right at home. The location feels private without being too far from local amenities. It was quiet and relaxing. We stayed here primarily to visit Gettysburg, which is about half an hour from the house, but there are also several small towns a bit closer that had stores and farms and other cute places to check out. The listing was exactly as described and besides our own groceries, we really didn't need anything else that wasn't already there. Definitely would stay here again!

The Frame ~ Charming Nature Escape ~ Hot Tub ~ BBQ
Wandas place was immaculate, we enjoyed our two night stay. Wanda communicated throughout, to make sure everything was well. We have no complaints, location was great, kitchen fully stocked. Such a great experience, we will be back!

Texter Mountain Home - wooded getaway w/ hot tub
I can’t explain how AMAZING this beautiful mountain home is. If there were more than five stars, I would give so many more. Everything from the beautiful home, to the hot tube, to the shower, to the coffee pour over was amazing. It was so peaceful and the best staycation I’ve ever had. The hot tub and the In home wooden stove was absolutely amazing. I love this mountain home and cannot wait to come back! Alison is super responsive! She even gave a treat of bread to us. She even had a binder with to-do things in the area! We were relaxed & rejuvenated! We cannot wait to be back!!!!
Treehouses in Pennsylvania

Ohiopyle Luxury Treehouse
My husband and I booked this treehouse mainly for my niece and nephew who were visiting from out of the country with their parents. But surely, the big kids at heart also had an amazing time. What an unforgettable retreat to build lasting memories with family! I asked the kids and the following stuck the most (and which they still do rave about): building fires, making and enjoying s'mores, and sleeping in hanging beds. As for us, just seeing the kids' smiles and curiosity piqued, along with the quality family time we spent together, made this experience truly worth it. Thank you, Nina and Bob, for sharing this magical place as well as for the treats you provided for all ages! 😆😊 Leaving love, our family ❤️

Treehouse adventure on regenerative farm
The Two Creek Farm treehouse offers a truly unique, once-in-a-lifetime experience. From the moment you arrive, you’re welcomed with a sense of excitement and tranquility. Sleeping under the bright moon and stars in this enchanting treehouse was unforgettable. The Two Creek family warmly opens their home, and their attention to detail in creating an educational and relaxing atmosphere is exceptional. As a solo traveler, feeling safe is crucial, and I couldn’t have asked for better hosts who made me feel right at home. I won’t spoil the surprises, but I definitely plan to take advantage of some of their offerings next time!

Lothlorien Tree House
Really adored this experience. Gretchen was so responsive and helpful. There is a lot included in this stay. The kitchen and fire pit includes a lot of things I didn't expect, the inside of the tree house is amazing. I wish I could have stood longer so I will have to return another year. This location will stay dead on my memory. Thank you Gretchen!

So Secluded & Magical Easy access & Pet Friendly
We stayed at the Treehouse because we wanted a peaceful little get away and it was perfect! The place was clean, quiet and just like the photos. Eddie was great with getting right back to me with any questions we had and making sure we had everything we needed. I would highly recommend staying in the Treehouse. Such a cool experience! We will definitely be back.

Jubilee Tree Treehouse—Elevated Hot tub, Fireplace
The treehouse is beautiful! Decorated very well, very homey and comfortable too. Nice hot tub and bedding was very nice.

Romantic Tiny Home Couples Cabin
This was the perfect spot! The little home was so cozy and insanely comfortable! The bathroom was gorgeous, the linens and towels were so soft, and the house was stocked with everything you could think of! Sarah was extremely responsive and so kind to leave a giftcard to a local diner as well as a folder of local recommendations. I was hesitant to book because my boyfriend is tall and I didn’t want him to feel cramped but he had no problems and was so comfy! My first morning here I had a cup of tea on the back porch while listening to the birds and waterfall—could not recommend any higher! We will absolutely be staying here again :)

Magical Tree House w/ Hot Tub, Fire Pit & Slide
Our stay in Darby’s tranquil treehouse was just the intimate escape we needed to celebrate our wedding anniversary! Darby was in communication with us throughout the process, sent an extensive listing of restaurants, things to do & places to check out during our stay; she met us upon arrival & made sure we had everything we needed for a perfect weekend! She messaged us during our stay to check in on us, but still gave us privacy to enjoy our time in this unique space. The treehouse itself is thoughtfully appointed with necessities and little luxuries, the deck area was spacious & lit with twinkling fairy lights - we LOVED the hot tub! The site was clean, well organized & laid out with guests in mind. I highly recommend Darby & her Treehouse to anyone looking for an experience in nature that’s definitely NOT roughing it!

The Cranberry Limited
Absolutely magical! Benny and Natalia’s hospitality went above and beyond anything we could’ve imagined. The treehouse was a dream full of thoughtful touches that made it feel cozy and enchanting. The basement of the main house was perfect with the comfiest of beds and so many fun things to do. We left feeling not only relaxed and inspired, but also deeply grateful to have connected with such generous, lovely people. A truly rare and beautiful experience we’ll never forget. Thank you so much for having us!!!
Your guide to Pennsylvania
All About Pennsylvania
Traveling to Pennsylvania is often synonymous with taking in a piece of American history. It was one of the first 13 colonies, it’s where the Declaration of Independence was signed, and it’s where the Gettysburg Address was written. People from all over the U.S. make pilgrimages to the state to see the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall in Philadelphia and the battlefields of Gettysburg, among other historical attractions.
But there is so much more to this state besides its history. Pennsylvania Dutch country is steeped in Amish traditions. Philadelphia, the state’s largest city, is known for its cheesecake and cheesesteak, and Pittsburg, the second largest, is home to iconic Gilded Age architectural sites. Go beyond the metropolitan hubs to explore the dramatic waterfalls and deep gorges of the Poconos, watch the stars explode across the jet-black sky at Cherry Springs State Park, or paddle along the waters of Lake Erie. Or for a completely different pace of things, you can ride a stomach-churning rollercoaster at a famous amusement park in Hershey.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Pennsylvania
Like its northeastern neighbor states, Pennsylvania benefits from a full four seasons: hot summers, autumns erupting with colorful foliage, and springs that bring the state back to life after cold, snowy winters. The best time to visit depends entirely on the kind of experience you’re looking to have: fans of skiing and snowmobiling will find plenty of mountains to explore in the Poconos, while Lake Erie is a popular destination for those looking for cabins to rent for the summer. There is plenty to see in the cities year-round, though to avoid crowds and get the best weather, early autumn or late spring are ideal times to plan a holiday here. October is generally the best month to see the beautiful fall foliage in Pennsylvania’s national and state parks.
Top things to do in Pennsylvania
Museum-hop in Philadelphia
Philadelphia may not be the state’s official capital, but it is a cultural capital. A trip here is a great way to dig into the art and history with trips to the Museum of the American Revolution, the Philadelphia Museum of Art — which houses one of the country’s most impressive collections of Impressionist and Modernist art — and the Mütter Museum, which collects medical curiosities. Just don’t forget to grab a cheesesteak between stops.
Big Pocono State Park
Big Pocono State Park is an impressive place for a hike any time of year, but there’s something especially magical about being here to see the trees turn stunning shades of red, orange, gold, purple, and brown in the fall. On a clear day, trek to the top of Camelback Mountain to see the entire tri-state area sprawled out before you, in a blanket of fiery hues.
Pennsylvania Dutch Country
Pennsylvania Dutch country is a unique cultural enclave within the state, where large communities of Amish and Mennonite people have made their homes. While here, make sure to stop at the town of Intercourse, where you can purchase beautiful artisanal items, handicrafts, and foodstuffs made by locals (tip: pick up a homemade pie for the road.)
