Further details for this vacation house rental in Hopewell, Pennsylvania

Is there anything to do at Pristine Waters?: Bike, bird-watch, breakfast on the deck, canoe, cook, de-stress, dine by candlelight, exercise, feed your soul, fish, grill, hike, hunt, kiss, listen, marvel at the wonders of nature, mediate, nap, observe flora and fauna, paint, photograph, propose, read, reconnect with loved ones, reflect, relax, roast marshmallows, romance the love of their life, sketch, sip wine, sleep, star gaze, study, swim, walk, write and more. Or, you can simply do nothing. Your choice.

Do you crave a peaceful getaway?: You may see osprey, red tailed hawk, or even the bald eagle. Listen for the night owl, the woodpecker and the elusive whippoorwill. Canoe 60 plus miles of open river and hike or bike the many woodland trails. Listen to the soft gurgling of the river as you sit on the deck watching the fish stir. In the evening, hear the peepers while sipping a glass of wine on the deck. The next morning have coffee with the sun streaming on your face and the birds chirping about. For dinner, plan a gourmet meal. The woodland aromas will warm your nostrils and savory spices from the herb garden flavor your grilled vegetables. Relax in any of the comfortable reading spots. There are many books to choose from!

Consider spring or fall.: Spring is a great time to be at Pristine Waters. It is very quiet and the hot tub is great for relaxing in the chilly weather. The river is usually higher and good for canoeing longer distances. Fall is also a beautiful time with lots of colorful leaves to look at and a crystal clear river. Hunt just across the river in the 2,600 acre State Gameland #261 for squirrel, rabbit, whitetail deer, turkey or even bear. Be sure to bring your non-fishing/non-hunting family and friends along, there's plenty for them to do as well.

Ski: Blue Knob Ski Resort is only 30 miles from the Lodge. Limited cross country skiing in the winter

Golf: Golf courses are available in nearby Bedford, Everett and Altoona.

Other Activities: canoeing & kayaking, bird watching, mushroom foraging, photography, reading

Hopewell vacation house rental rating 55/5
Cosy, romantic hideaway!
valen  York,PA
Review Submitted: December 19, 2007 Date of Stay: August 2007
We rented this property for surprize birthday getaway for present for my husbands 50th party! Owners did up a certificate for his birthday to give him. We rented the cabin for one week and we ended up staying an extra day as it was available. Would definately rent property again, would love to rent it for the whole season. We absolutely loved it there! Really a beautiful property, charming A frame cottage, very cosy and nicely decorated, very well maintained. River not great for swimming, but we did not mind. We fished daily, my husband's favourite pastime, canoed down river, relaxed in the hottub under the evening stars. Wonderful choice! Highly recommend!

Quiet getaway retreat doesn't do it justice

Review Submitted: October 7, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
What a wonderful and relaxing retreat this was. Very quiet and lots of fish to catch. Canoeing or just sitting on the dock. After sitting in the boat all day, the jaccuzzi was good for your aches and pains. I would definitely go back again....and probably will.

Truly a woodland retreat with rustic elegance!
Phil & Rosemary  Manheim,PA
Review Submitted: September 23, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
This A-frame cottage and its surrounding property was even more than we had hoped for. The moment you opened the front door and stepped into the sunroom, you felt like you had "come home". The owners have done a wonderful job of decorating the A-frame cottage to make you feel welcome and comfortable. There are all sorts of decorations that will bring a feeling of cozy, rustic charm and whimsy. (The pictures in their ad do not do it justice!)

My husband and I enjoyed the secluded, peacefulness of the property. We enjoyed many walks down to the riverbank, fishing, hot tub and constant "entertainment" of nature! You are truly away from the stress that most of us have in our busy lives. Yet, it is only a short distance to find other amenities, such as grocery stores, gas stations, restaurants, state parks, etc. The owners have even compiled a binder full of information/maps for these nearby attractions. They thought of everything!

If you are looking for a place to relax, unwind, get away from it all or just to spend time with your family....look no further! We will definitely return.
