About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Hobbit House | 1BR,1BA, Hot Tub, Dog Friendly

The Hobbit House at Fernstone is truly a one of a kind structure, not only in the Laurel Highlands, but beyond! On the outside, you'll appreciate the thoughtful placement among the trees, ferns, and ponds that make Fernstone so special; but when you step foot inside, that is when the magic really begins. In fact, when you aren't exploring the grounds and taking in the natural beauty of the Laurel Highlands, you'll be spending your time trying to figure out the craftsmanship that went into weaving the heavy oak timbers together to form the reciprocal rafter roof structure. And this is a type of construction that is rare indeed! Conveniently inherent in the design, is the opportunity for the stunning clear glass dome over the bed that allows you to gaze at the stars as you drift off to sleep. And of course, no OVR stay is complete without a well appointed bathroom, complete with tiled shower and unique custom made sink. So if you're looking for a one of a kind stay in a one of a kind setting, The Hobbit House at Fernstone is an easy choice!

We came to the Hobbit House for a late Valentine’s getaway. It was cute, romantic and did not disappoint. We loved the attention to detail and the hot tub was fabulous! Check-in to Check-out was flawless. We will be back!

The Hobbit House was great! The WiFi didn’t work very well but not anyone’s fault. The property manager had great communication and answered me via text message promptly. Overall we had a great night and the property was amazing. Also great location to casino.

Relaxing getaway!

A great time in Farmington! We were the only ones renting during our stay, so being in the area alone was a little spooky at times. But the property was delightful, had great accommodations in a small package, and wonderful sights and hikes were close by. Would certainly go again

ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!!

This was probably the best vacation rental we have ever been to. It was snowy and cold when we went, but we were still able to enjoy the hot tub and use the grill. The star gazing window inside was our favorite part even though the night didn’t allow for many stars to be seen. We 100% fully intend on coming back to this location in the summer when we can go rafting and try out some of the other activities around the area. We couldn’t have been happier with our stay.

The house is cute property is semi secluded but has 3 other rentals within 200yards. The bed is very uncomfortable we live close so we decided to leave early after only staying one night. Impossible to keep the floor dry if raining but it is stone and doesnt hurt anything other than you can expect to have wet socks or be barefoot.

My husband and I enjoyed a couple nights away at the Hobbit house. It was the perfect blend of unique architecture and whimsical fairytale:) I recommend packing flip flops or slippers for the beautiful stone floors.

Very unique and beautiful space. Immaculately clean. However, the heater was extremely loud, keeping me awake most of the night. The substantial outdoor lighting stayed on all night and couldn't be controlled meaning the inside was quite bright and little could be seen out of the very cute roof portal While the property doesn't provide firewood, there was none to be purchased anywhere nearby in the winter, so we couldn't enjoy the fire pit. Overall a unique experience, but a poor night's sleep and a feeling that we probably over paid.

Very unique and fun property in a pretty, quiet setting. My only problems were that the gravel road to access the property is a bit rough and finding the right driveway can be a little tricky, especially if not arriving in full daylight. The directions provided by the property were great but Google Maps seemed to be pinpointed to another driveway for some related properties a couple hundred yards down the road.

Even Better in Real Life

This house is even more amazing in person! I rented the Hobbit House for a mini getaway and birthday escape for my boyfriend, and it was perfect. The home is absolutely gorgeous, with a cozy cabin feel, stone flooring, a beautiful bathroom sink, a mini kitchen, a hot tub, and a fire pit outside. The property is maintained by the wonderful team at Ohiopyle Rentals, and a special shoutout to the maintenance staff I had the pleasure of meeting during our stay. The grounds are impeccably kept. I couldn't have asked for a better experience with the location, home, and staff for this rental.

anniversary celebration

The cabin was just as listed, it was nestled in the woods and was clean and comfortable. Not a lot of space for cooking, but that is part of the experience. The ponds were cool right outside your door, with plenty of frogs. We would definitely rent again.

Magical visit!

We were so pleased to have had time on this property during the off season. It was so private, quiet, and full of wildlife. We hope to visit again! We highly recommend the butchers box! Bring butter, long tongs, and steak knives. I'd rather not give this glowing review, as we truly hope to book again soon We did have issues with connecting to the wifi, but had planned to disconnect from the real world anyway

Great for couples

Was a perfect anniversary get away. We took a space heater because of a review we read stating that the furnace had a hard time keeping up in the extreme PA winters. I’m so glad that we did because it was very much needed to make our stay comfortable. The pond was beautiful and the location was hidden off the main road. We did have concerns about security because the only lock on the main door was a simple hook and eye latch which seemed a little scary knowing bears could break that easily

Nice but a little chilly

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very cute and romantic space, clean and well furnished. The only issue was the heat, it was not able to keep up with the cold on the evening of our arrival. The door didn't completely seal and there was a small draft. I would bring a small electric space heater if you are visiting when it will be in the 20's or colder.
