We spent several wonderful day's at Maple Ridge visiting with our family. It is surrounded by tall trees and huge ferns! The cabin was well stocked with everything you need which made cooking a pleasure and activities to keep children busy. My grandson caught an orange salamander which was very exciting to him!

Me and my five buddies from college/hometown stayed here over Columbus Day Weekend for our 20th annual fall get-together. This by far was the best ever. The cabin was a perfect venue...quiet, secluded and serene setting...tall trees, beautiful fall foliage, friendly neighbors (who let us fish in their private pond) but gave us space, bucolic town and countryside...plentiful firewood and great firepit for bonfires or cooking. Comfortable accomodations, clean and bright lodging easily held our group, and could have easily slept anothter 4-5. Well-appointed kitchen, satellite TV to watch the ballgames, pool table for at-home fun, and hot tub to soak the bones after days hiking or mountain biking the trails. Owner responsive and easy to work with. Definitely plan to return again to this gem! A great value!

We stayed here over the 4th of July, and were very pleased to find that the description on the website was accurate. The house is set way back in the woods, with a beautiful cabin decor. It was nice to rent a home and only have to bring in food, everything else, and I do mean everything, was included, towels, linens, pots, pans, detergent, it was a pleasure. We stayed here with several friends, four adults, and three children, plenty of room for everyone. We all would recommend Maple Ridge to anyone, and would also stay again.

What a place! The cabin was everything we'd hoped for, and more. Beautiful craftsmanship throughout, and all the modern conveniences you'd want.

Lovely paths through the woods for walking. Great firewood set up, inside and out. We even saw a bear walking around the cabin on our last morning there!

The loft upstairs is huge, and a great benefit to keep kids busy playing! In effect, nothing was missing. And town is just five miles away, with anything you might need.

Our stay was wonderful, and we can't wait to come back. Thank you Bob, and thanks to the Bennetts, too.

We just can't say enough about Maple Ridge.

My friends and I had a great time staying at your cabin. I browsed through some of your books and noticed that you had planted some trees and shrubs specifically to attract deer. It seems to be working as I almost stepped on a fawn in your field. It was unharmed but it squawked in protest and ran away...we also had a large black guest on our last day there but I'll let one of my friends relate that story...

Homeowner Response:
Dave, Rich and their party were fortunate to view a black bear that was moving through the area and took some great pictures. At one point almost appearing to pose at a stump just outside the cabin.

Maple Ridge, the woodland retreat with the conveniences of home. We had a great stay, very relaxing. Both the Bennett's and Ecker's worked hard to make sure our visit was as advertised. If peace and quiet is what you're looking for, you'll find it at Maple Ridge.

We had family visit from out of state and we're thrilled to stumble on such a wonderful place. Huge cabin and really was a pleasure. Entire family was comfortable and nothing is left out. Enjoyed hiking and seeing the wildlife. On a scale of 1-10 I would give it a 9.

Our stay at Maple Ridge was wonderful. The cabin
is beautiful with lot's of room for everyone to be
together, but alone when they want. Nothing is left
out, it is just like being in your own home. The
beds were very comfortable, most rentals put the
cheap beds in and we were pleased with each one
of them, and there are many! The weather was
rainy when we went so we did not get to use all of
your fabulous outdoor fire pit and tables, but did
get to enjoy the rain from the outdoor covered
porch. When in the area again, you will be the first
ones we call.

Our stay at the cabin was fantastic. Our party really had a good time. The cabin is big, comfortable and spacious. The kids enjoyed the playroom and playing outside. The grounds are heavily wooded which keeps the cabin cool. We had such a wonderful time that some were talking about using the cabin for a future visit. For a picturesque, peaceful surrounding and lots of privacy, I highly recommend Maple Ridge.

Exquisite! - wish our stay were longer.
Full party aged 15 to 90yrs and all found something to enjoy and remember forever. Mr Eckers and the Bennetts catered to our every need and hope to re-visit another day.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at this beautiful cabin in the woods of PA. The property is lovely and quite relaxing. Our children enjoyed getting close- up to the wilflife (deer, chipmunks, turkey). The furnishing in the cabin is just perfect and nice and clean. The owner was friendly and helpful. We highly recommend this rental and hope to rent there again next summer!

The cabin was very nice-much nicer than the advertisement. My two year old enjoyed walks in the woods visting the wildlife-deer, turkey, squirrels, chipmunks...etc. Great place for relaxing or getting away from a bustling city.

We hope you feel like family during your stay also. Sincerely, Bob Eckers(owner)
