About The House:
Split Rock Trail is sited on a 1/2 acre lot on a quiet cul-de-sac a little downhill from Devil's Knob. It adjoins the Shamokin Nature Preserve, featuring a path through the woods leading to Stoney Creek, the Old Appalachain Trail, and the Shamokin Falls Upper Gorge Trail. The grounds surrounding the house are filled with mountain laurel, rhododendron, and many types of ferns and hardwoods. Deer pass through the grounds on their regular rounds. Foliage colors change with the seasons. The house is less than five minutes from the Wintergarden Spa. During ski season, guests may park at the Wintergarden and ride the shuttle to the slopes and the Mountain Inn, thus avoiding the crush of the public parking areas. It is nestled into the side of the mountain so that the main entrance is at the same level as the parking area and the lower level exits at ground level. The house is equipped with central heating and cooling, as well as a house humidifier.

Tour the close-by vineyards, take long hikes on the miles of trails that are just a few steps away from the house, or relax in the hammock on one of two decks.
