Perfect secluded getaway!

Our stay at Michael and Josh's place was everything we wanted it to be and more. The check-in process was very easy, the property had everything we needed, and Josh and Michael were very responsive throughout our entire stay. Everyone in our group had a great time walking around the woods, relaxing next to the fire, and playing outside. We are definitely looking forward to staying here again and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a private, spacious, cozy, nature-filled getaway.

Absolutely beautiful

We gathered as a family for a winter birthday weekend and couldn’t have asked for a more magical spot - the home was cozy and had everything (and more) that we needed, the hosts were gracious and extremely accessible. Plenty of dry firewood for some great fires. We hiked the many snowy trails and burned off our s’more calories. It was quiet and lovely and the kids had a great time sledding.

I've stayed at this home several times with old friends as a sort of reunion for our group. The property is picturesque, peaceful, and private. You feel like you have a whole valley to yourself in a beautiful mountain setting. Hope to stay again soon.

This was the best location yet and we’ve been renting properties through VRBO for years. The cabin was spotless! There was nothing that you needed. It was all there for you. This was by far our best trip and I can not wait to go back! We LOVED IF!

Mountain family reunion

My six siblings, their spouses, and I loved the property. The house had lots of room and lots of vantage points to enjoy the beautiful scenery, nearby pond, lake and rolling hills. Hiking was excellent: a short walk and we circled the lake or the more adventurous hikers took off for the woods trails. The kitchen was beautifully equipped with room for many chefs. All these features made for a great reunion!

Great place for a big group

We stayed here for a family wedding in Berlin with 6 families from all over the country and kids from 10 and up. What a find! Such an interesting and beautiful property- perfect for us. So well stocked and open floor plan was great for a large group. Very clean and great communication with property owners/managers. Thank you for sharing this treasure with us!

A wonderful week in the mountains!

What a great property! Very private with beautiful views. We loved exploring the trails during the day, as did the pups. We picked a rainy week, but those days were just as enjoyable spent in front of the fireplace and playing pool in the game room downstairs. The large porch was great for looking at the stars at night, nothing like what you'd see at home! You can tell the house itself has been recently updated, it was clean and had everything we needed for our large group. Would love to stay here again!

40th birthday celebration

I took over a dozen friends to this place to celebrate my 40th birthday and spent 4 days here. My goal was to find a secluded place with generous lodging and amenities, and this place delivered! The house was spacious and equipped with modern amenities including high quality bluetooth speakers and an updated kitchen, but also filled with a panoply of charming and curious antique items. It was also well stocked with games (boardgames as well as pool, table tennis and karaoke). The lawn is vast and we utilized it for a bonfire, frisbee, and even set up a slip n slide. We also hung out by the nearby lake and some of us went swimming in it or just relaxed on an inflatable. Everyone in attendance was effusively complimentary of the house and grounds and kept asked where I found this gem. I highly recommend a stay here!

Birthday Bash a success!

The location was fantastic—secluded and perfect for a peaceful weekend escape. I would rate it 4 stars overall. The hosts were responsive and helpful, and the house was clean and well-stocked with all the necessary kitchen supplies for easy cooking and cleaning. However, I couldn’t give it 5 stars because the photos were a bit misleading. The rooms were smaller than expected, and two of the bathrooms were located inside bedrooms, making them less accessible for all guests. Additionally, while the seclusion is great for privacy, guests should be aware that outdoor activities like hiking trails are still quite far from the property. If visiting in the winter, keep in mind that the roads within five minutes of the house are not plowed or salted, making driving conditions dangerous. It would be helpful to clarify these details in future descriptions. Otherwise, the house is beautiful and I will book there again in the summertime if another opportunity arises.

Beautiful setting in the mountains for PA

Last month our family of 8 adults and 8 children (and a varity of dogs) gathered together for 5 magical days in the beautiful mountains of PA. We could not believe the incredible beauty of this place. It is impossible to see this from the photos on VRBO. In a word, you have to be there and experience it. We had wonderful weather and some in our party took out the canoes on the lake. We walked the trails, sat on the bridge watching the children (and dogs) play in the stream and generally let the outside world drift quietly away. This is a family place owned by brothers Josh and Michael who were always available to tend to any need we might have. They checked in by phone only and did not drop by to disturb our family time. Places like this are difficult if not impossible to find. We are hopeful to visit this special place again in the future. Don & Sylvia

“Mountain Paradise” lives up to its name in every way!

This was truly one of the greatest properties our group has ever stayed at in our lives. The Wolff’s home is so remote, you can’t hear anything but the sweet sounds of nature all around you. We enjoyed canoeing, swimming, hiking, lawn games, bonfires, and slow mornings with coffee on the deck. The house has plenty of room for large groups to spread out and the lack of AC was not an issue at all, even in late August. Everything in the house was clean and well-stocked. Michael and Josh were fantastic hosts with excellent communication. It would be an honor to stay at their massive slice of paradise again in the future!

It’s feel like we rented the entire mountain lol so much fun things to do. We were a big group of 24 and the house was big enough for our stay. We had so much fun hiking, fishing and exploring the surroundings. The board games, 8 pool, pin ping pong table. I felt like 2 days was not enough. Highly keeping this in mind for another trip but for more time lol. Kitchen is fully equipped.

Hope to return!

Our stay at 600 Acres was beyond enjoyable. We stayed for a weekend for a work retreat and were all very impressed with the space. The home was comfortable, clean, and was fully stocked with everything you needed for your stay (supplies for cooking for a large group, plentiful firewood, extra blankets, etc.). The land was beautiful, and our group thoroughly enjoyed exploring. Michael and Josh were amazing hosts and were extremely responsive before and during our stay to ensure we were fully accommodated. We hope to return!
