Trail 2 Lake
Our Rustic apartment is privately situated among 650 acres of private hardwoods forest. It is conveniently located at the juncture of the Clarion River, North Country Trail and the Route 66 Bike Trail. If you are into 4 wheeling or Buggy rides you can quietly drive your vehicle to rider friendly roads and the 30 mile Piney Railriders Motorized Vehicle Trail. Who says you can' t have it all! Take an early Bike Ride on the Route 66 Rails to Trails, follow that with a refreshing swim in the Clarion River, take a leisurely late afternoon - early evening stroll or vigorous hike on the North Country Trail. Cap the evening with dinner at a local restaurant or enjoy your own cooking at the pond or your private outdoor firepit. Do it all RIGHT HERE!

Check in was easy and the renter was easy to contact. Clean property on a quiet road. Very cozy place to stay near the town and river but still nice and quiet place to relax between activities.

The online description was inaccurate
Checkin was poor, no contact with the owner, had to call to get the door code
Needs to have a facility book onsite to help guide renters

Cute place, clean and cozy with a full bath up and half bath on main floor. Nice for 2, maybe three people.Could update the living area furniture.
I have a feeling it had not been rented in awhile as the water heater was faulty, and someone else’s food and half eaten Blizzard were in the Freezer. Heat works great, needs a repair or replacement to the water heater. There is no Microwave or fire extinguisher that we could find.
The listing is not quite accurate and maybe deceiving:
This is not near the river. The river is quite a hike from the property and it’s a downhill hike through other properties to get there. If there was a dock and overlook deck like listed in photos, we had NO Idea where to find it as there is no info guide to any amenities or to the house itself. Such as check-in procedure/check-out procedure/wifi password/how to work the television. Local EMS or emergency/Fire.
To have to call or text and wait for a response is ridiculous.
We weren’t sure about hiking the woods around there as there were several houses and EVERYWHERE posted No trespassing. Be more informative.
If you list a bunch of local activities, have info on those or at least contact information for them. Most times I would think you’re renting to those who are not Local.
