Relax. Refresh. Reconnect ~~
We welcome you to the Cottage, where you can relax, refresh, and reconnect with those you love. Located on more than four quiet acres in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, this Cottage is available to rent – for two nights or many nights – you decide how much peaceful respite you seek.
1st Floor -
The Cottage was converted from an old flax mill built sometime around 1887 and sits along a stream and pond. The first floor boasts a cozy and well-equipped eat-in kitchen, a laundry room, and a convenient half-bathroom. There is also a comfortable and rustic living room with a wood fireplace built from old reclaimed schoolhouse bricks. Because of its origin, the first floor is built from local field stones and has 18' thick walls (no need for air conditioning!) and a counter made from a huge cast metal slab from the original flax grinding equipment.
2nd Floor -
The second floor opens to a small sitting room surrounded by three bedrooms. Each room is decorated in warm earthy tones and local antiques that evoke country charm and a restful atmosphere.
The sitting room has original wide plank floors and is a great place to sit and enjoy a book or and opens to an expansive deck that overlooks the stocked pond. The deck is an expansive 10' X 36' and includes seating and a small bar.
The luxurious and spacious Jack-and-Jill bathroom is nestled BETWEEN two bedrooms, a layout typical of homes of this age (Note that you must go through a bedroom to enter the bathroom). It evokes a feeling of a country spa, with a beautifully restored claw foot soaking tub that allows for complete relaxation. There is also a walk-in shower large enough for two, with a bench and rain shower head. A towel warmer awaits you after bathing, providing the best of modern-day comforts with timeless rustic treasures.
The large primary bedroom offers a queen bed, dresser, closet, and a day bed that can be utilized for lounging or sleeping. A large table at one end of the room allows you to enjoy card games, crafts, or conversation with family and friends. An exterior bedroom door leads to the deck..
The second bedroom has a double bed with a dresser, nightstand, and original wide plank floors. This room also has a closet and an entrance to the bathroom.
The third bedroom has a set of bunk beds with twin mattresses, a dresser, entrance to the bathroom, and original wide plank floors.

From the moment you come down the lane to the Cottage, you will begin to breathe more gently, slow your heart rate, and remove yourself fully from the hustle and bustle of your daily life. As you walk down the sidewalk to the cottage, you may notice the covered front porch swing, the picnic table where you'll enjoy an evening dinner or the open campfire and comfy chairs for storytelling and s'mores. A closer look may reveal the original working hand-pump well where children can have hours of fun. A small dock makes fishing easy and a supply of firewood awaits you in the woodshed ($).
This is only the beginning of what the Cottage has to offer. There are quiet walks down the path to Pine Creek, where you can swim or float, or stick closer to home and listen to nature babble in the little brook right outside the front door. There is a canoe to float on the small pond or a covered footbridge to explore the nearby woods to search for signs of deer, turkeys, and other hidden animals. Pick some blueberries or wild raspberries for your breakfast cereal or take a walk down some of the many miles of country roads surrounding the property.
