About this property

Comfy Lakefront Farmhouse - Bring Your Boat! Fish, swim, kayak, relax & enjoy!

Nestled in a quiet valley, Sugar Lake is one of NW Pennsylvania's 50 glacial lakes. Enjoy days and evenings relaxing on the wrap around porch enjoying wildlife and the scenic views of the lake. At any time you can see a trumpeter swan, a gaggle of geese or a flock of ducks floating by. This one of a kind hidden gem provides you with a little bit of history as well as a picturesque location to enjoy nature.

Our families have enjoyed pontoon boating, kayaking, canoeing, fishing, and paddle boarding directly from property or public launch less than a football field away for more than 30 years!

Find yourself enjoying a serene, idyllic, beautiful setting during your stay or 45 minutes North you can explore Erie PA. The farmhouse is less than a two hour drive from either Pittsburgh or Cleveland. So if you are looking for an escape staycation, you are a short drive away!

Outstanding fishing and hunting in the area, with a number of lakes (Sugar Lake, Tamarack, Woodcock and Wilhelm) and creeks (Sugar Creek, French Creek etc.) an hour to Peak N Peak skiing, several golf courses nearby (Mt. Hope 10 minutes North and Sleepy Hollow 10 minutes to the East and Whispering Pines 20 minutes to the West.

Beautiful, newly remodeled two story farmhouse built in the 1850's, original heart pine walls and hardwood floors updated with modern amenities including modern kitchen and bathroom, microwave, wifi, TV, dishwasher. Second floor bedrooms are decorated to take you back in time with three Queen beds and two Twin beds to sleep from 5 to 8 upstairs. Grand porch outside with porch swing, grill, two fire pits, cornhole and giant Jenga included. Wildlife abounds, including bald eagles, ospreys, deer, a wide variety of waterfowl. Outstanding fishing -- bass, muskie, pike, walleye, perch, bluegill, catfish, and bowfin all commonly found in the lake.

For those that enjoy the spirits, Meadville and Franklin both have breweries and there are number of wineries in the area to enjoy the day exploring the variety of tastes and many have weekend entertainment. There are three wineries that are within a 20 to 35 minute drive. WE ENCOURAGE ALL TO DRINK RESPONSIBLY!
