Winter Hiking Stay

We enjoyed our stay at your home for our winter getaway. It is a great location; near Ricketts Glen State Park. The house was clean and supplied well with necessary supplies, including linens and kitchen essentials. We enjoyed feeding the horses apples and grabbing a beer at the Central Park Hotel.

Perfect place to stay for Ricketts Glen!

We came for a hiking weekend to see all the waterfalls and spend time visiting with cousins. Felt like home away from home. A fluke storm knocked out the power but Jenni was as helpful as possible to make sure we were comfortable until the power came back on. No frills but if you just want a cozy and clean place, then this is it. I would stay here again if I come back to Ricketts Glen! And the view from the front porch is wonderful!

Beautiful, Well-Loved Home

Nick and Jenni's home is cozy and comfortable. Nothing fancy, but everything is nicely done and well-maintained. It was just what we were looking for. The location is quiet, and we enjoyed hanging out on the front porch looking at mountains and the horses across the way. The neighbor's sweet little dog came and checked us out, which was a nice surprise, too! Rickett's Glen is really close, and there are several other towns we were able to check out nearby. We especially enjoyed going to Jackson Mansion in Berwick PA. We definitely hope to come back!

About the host

Hosted by Jenni Hiles

Host profile image
Welcome to my creative space on the internet! Since my childhood, I've known what I wanted to do was sing. The very first wedding I sang in was at the age of 9 years old. As a hopeless romantic, I began singing for friends and family's weddings in high school and my passions took off from there by word of mouth. I've worked tirelessly for years to follow my dreams and found my place in the wedding industry. After a series of unfortunate events, losing everything I had, living from my car and feeling completely lost, I decided to take my life back into my own hands. I traveled the country and found a beautiful little camper that I decided to make my own little mobile home so that I can continue traveling, and doing what I love in the wedding and interior design industries. As an aspiring entrepreneur, I have been recently focusing more on my interior design skills, offering services in residential and AirBnB spaces all across the country! I deeply desire to be creative in all that I do and no matter where I go in this world or what project I get my hands on, you will see the beauty and care that I pour into each endeavor.

I believe that every wedding should be a reflection of the couple's personality, style and journey together. Every home should feel comfortable and safe and you should LOVE the space that you're in! For that reason, I work closely with you to understand your vision and bring it to life in a way that exceeds your expectations. I am passionate in all of my creative endeavors and I thrive to leave a lasting impression on you however you decide to let me serve you. I firmly believe in making the most of what you have and not settling for anything that isn't a full expression of YOU. For questions about any of the services I offer, feel free to reach out to me personally by visiting www.jenuinearts.com. Let's get this show on the road! Literally.

Why they chose this property

This beautifully renovated and well kept 1900s era home will put you at ease. Included is two bedrooms, one bath, and some very spacious living and dining areas. Large bay windows in the living room allow views of the Appalachians from the comfort of the couch. The front patio is accessible from the living room, and provides an open, unobstructed view of the surrounding mountains and landscape.

The small town feel is perfectly complemented by knowing that your neighbors include long-time residents, the town's fire chiefs, and some of the friendliest people you'll ever meet.

Rickett's Glen Campground is a very short drive away, and the largest state park can be accessed just down the road. Need a night cap? There is a small, local watering-hole style bar known as the Central Park Hotel within walking distance just down the street with amazing food! Further down the street the other direction is the well-known Jamison City Hotel and Bar, known for their 'Copper Penny Bar', live music, outside dining area, frequented by people from all around the area and travelers like yourself!

What makes this property unique

If you opt for the "bed and breakfast" experience during your stay, you will receive a warm, welcoming and personal interaction with your host as breakfast is being served! (2 night minimum for the full breakfast experience.) You may choose what time you would like a full breakfast to be served, on the first morning of your stay, as early as 8am. Each morning to follow, complimentary, grab-and-go breakfast options will be provided for your convenience!

If you choose to bypass the full breakfast service, please reach out and let us know as soon as possible. The host will be accessing the kitchen through the side door to prepare your meal and will exit the home once the food is ready, allowing you to enjoy the rest of your getaway, uninterrupted. If you choose to stay cozied up in bed while your host finishes preparing your meal, a charming little breakfast bell will be rang letting you know that 'breakfast is served!' and we have exited the home!
