Sometimes when you're anticipating something for awhile (as we did with our trip), there is a letdown -- it looks better than it is. This is one instance where the opposite was true. The house, the lake, the area is just amazing!
We hiked, fished, played tennis, rowed, lounged by the fire, and most of all relaxed and enjoyed, feeling very much at home. The place was clean, very comfortable, and perfect for Easter dinner and board games to follow. And, even though the weather was a little bit chilly, we were able to start a nice warm fire in the pit and sit outside under the beautiful stars.
The baby ducks were adorable, and took to following my daughter around like a mother duck. For a little girl that doesn't like being away from home, she's already asking when we can return. Actually, the rest of us are asking the same question! |

| We had a beautiful, relaxing weekend away with friends and are already planning our next trip. Our dog loved the property & even swam in the sub-zero pond (don't forget to bring some extra towels for your dog!). The house/property & amenities were wonderful. We look forward to coming back & enjoying some croquet & lawn games! |

What a beautiful place. We wanted a weekend of peace and quiet and we got it! We took our teenage kids and even they liked it! Even though it was cold, we explored the trails, fed the ducks and had a nice fire outside. Can't wait to come back! Just a note, go by Greg's directions. Don't trust the GPS! |

We visited othmer pond estate for a combination snowmobile & scrapbook weekend. The access to the snowmobile trail system was great! The dining room was spacious for the scrapbookers. There was plenty of living & sleeping space, even with all of our stuff we brought. The beds were comfortable, baths were clean. Kitchen had all the appliances to prepare our meals and clean up afterwards. This was a very relaxing place to make our home base while in the beautiful Northern PA forest. |

| We really enjoyed our time here. It is a beautiful, older home loaded with character. It is a gem! The beds are very comfortable. Bathrooms are very nice. There's quality furnishings. The kitchen is reasonably stocked. (You may need additional bakeware if you are doing oven meals for a larger group.) The setting is wonderful, although we didn't get to enjoy the outdoors to its fullest because it rained most of the time. The ducks provided entertainment and they seemed to know they'd get corn(which was supplied) if they'd come to the front door. Thanks to the owner, Greg, for making this home available! |

We stayed at the Othmer House this past weekend. The foliage was spectacular. My children loved taking the boat out on the pond and feeding the ducks. It is a very special place and we were all able to relax very easily there! We highly recommend a visit! |

| Our party of 8 adults fit comfortably in this house with room to spare. We were pleasantly surprised when we drove onto the property, it is a glorious place, the pond, the quietness and the understated elegance are indescribable. We all wished we were staying more than one night. |

| A pretty and relaxing setting offering a large, upscale home in a charming small town community. The pond and surrounding area was beautiful (bring your walking shoes) and we loved being able to walk out the front door and fish in privacy. The kitchen was reasonably equipped. The bedding/linens was lovely quality and bathroom renovations were very high end. It was a rare treat to be able to bring our dogs, who also loved the pond. |

For a group of 20, this house was perfect! We had a great time using the pond for fishing, feeding the ducks, and the owner was great about getting us local information. The walking trail around the property was very easy to access and great for a lil stroll in the woods. All the rooms were very comfortable and the showers have been nicely renovated. If you're looking for a quiet get away, i would recommend this house. |
