Downtown Abbey Meets Schitt's Creek in This Stunning & Spacious Victorian Mansion!

My family and I (14 people) recently stayed at The Pines to celebrate my 40th birthday. It was perfect! Throughout the entire booking process Jorge was helpful and responsive. Lisa, the property manager, was in touch with me on arrival day and greeted us when we arrived. She gave us a tour of the property and a brief history of the mansion. The mansion was spotless and spacious. The kitchen was a particular highlight for us, as we cooked most of our meals there. Appliances were upgraded and the stove/over was commercial quality. There were plenty of pots, pans, and serving plates/utensils, so cooking for 14 was a breeze. I really can't say enough good things about this gem. I really hope we can return for another family trip in the future.

words can't describe

the unique and quirky experience of our stay. Our extended family of 16 thoroughly enjoyed ourselves--whether cooking up meals in the well-equipped kitchen with it's antique icebox that we were hard pressed to fill; the main rooms lovingly decorated for the Christmas holidays; the generous dining room where we hosted an elaborate murder mystery dinner among other memorable dinners. The old mansion was not perfect--it could be quite cold in the kitchen dining area, a storm one night had the whole place rollicking, the plumbing could be sensitive--but those things only added to the charm and magic that is The Pines. Our hosts were lovely and responsive.

Wonderful wedding weekend!

My daughter’s wedding was held on Saturday at the Stissing House down the street. My family, kids and grandkids, siblings and friends arrived Friday. The house was magically decorated for the season. Lisa, the manager gave us our tour and came back the next day to reprise for the rest of our guests! We enjoyed every minute of our visit and our guests did, too! Wonderful memories for everyone!

Wonderful Micro Wedding Weekend

We stayed at the Pine for four days for our son’s family wedding (14 adults and one toddler). The house is wonderfully decorated throughout in “Gilded Age” style, with lots of space to spread out in. The bedrooms are large and beautifully decorated. We had a wonderful dinner at the Stissing House restaurant - a short walk away. Wonderful venue!

Superb

There's really not much to add to the already glowing reviews seen here. This place is an absolute gem. Thoughtfully appointed inside and out, it was perfect for hosting our friends reunion. Plenty of places to relax and hang out. Nearby Stissing House for fine dining and Stissing Mountain for surprisingly impressive hiking. All around outstanding place to hide out from the huddled masses like a real industrialist. A+

Absolutely amazing

We had an amazing stay at The Pines! You can tell how much thought, care, and energy has been put into the property. There are so many small details to appreciate and enjoy. Lisa did a great job sharing the history of the house, and giving us an overview of the town. This property is an incredibly special place, and we will definitely be visiting again!

This Gilded Age Mansion is wonderful

We loved staying in this fantastic period house. Every room is spectacular and the attention to detail is spot on. Every time we walked into the house we were amazed. And we also felt at home and comfortable. We got a great tour from the property manager, who was accessible to us throughout our stay (although we didn't need her). We really enjoyed our time there.

Best weekend ever!

I truly don’t have enough words to express how lovely our time was here. It was a privilege to stay in such a gorgeous house but it was the touches the owner and manager made that made it even better. The landscaping was also incredibly beautiful. Very cool venue if you’re looking to do a murder mystery! Truly felt like we were living in Clue. Make sure you spend time in each room as they all have their own character and beauty. The beds were so comfortable and the rooms were so pretty you didn’t want to leave them! We will definitely be back.

Wedding of dreams!

We chose The Pines for our wedding in July, which was a dream come true! The excellent communication, warmth, and clear information provided by Jorge and Lisa (not to mention the impeccable care for the one-of-a-kind property), made our stay at The Pines so special. We used the park-like backyard and wooded area as the location for our ceremony, and our friends and family absolutely fell in love with it. The house itself, where members of our wedding party stayed, and the full experience, exceeded all expectations.

Amazing stay at an incredible property!

We recently celebrated a birthday with 19 guests at the Pines, and I couldn’t leave a better review! The property was beautiful, clean and had everything we needed for the weekend. The rental and check in process was simple; Jorge and Lisa were beyond communicative and hospitable. The house comfortably fit our guests; everyone had a gorgeous room and private bathroom. The decor and preservation of the house added another dimension and character to our stay. If you are seeking an escape that will really impress your group, the Pines is it!
