Winter is upon us and we are ready for you to come and visit us no matter what the weather!!
   F
If you are looking for a peaceful time to get away from all the hustle bustle of life, rent a cabin or campsite this winter with us!!
Our cabins and campsites are already booking into the spring and summer months so make sure to call soon to book your vacation!
There is much to do in the area if you like the outdoors!  If the weather is nice you can go on a hike on one of the many marked trails, or check out the Little Pine Dam where if the weather permits you can go ice fishing. When the snow arrives you can hit the rail trail to go cross country skiing or ask at the office for the other marked cross country ski trails or snow mobile trails up on the mountains.  You can snow shoe on the marked trails in the state game lands, or head to Ski Sawmill and go skiing or snow tubing! 
For a great meal, you can go to our Happy Acres Restaurant to warm up by our fireplace and meet our new Managers Chef Graham Zugarek and his wife Jae.  They have a lovely menu with many new items for you to enjoy after a day of outdoor fun.   Our Happy Store has delicious Perry's Ice Cream along with hot and iced coffees, hot chocolate, cappuccino's, frappuccino's, espresso, whipped coffee and the delicious milk shakes along with the cones and dishes. We have added a lot of interesting items for kids and adults alike in our store so check us out and see all that is fun and new!!  
Our restaurant and store are open with winter hours starting on Sunday December 11, 2011.  Please go to our restaurant page to see the new hours for both the store and the restaurant.

Our new office is up and running and our old office is now an "INTERNET CAFE"
offered for you to use free if you are a paying guest of our resort!  Our new office is located next to our playground and has really added the finishing touch to our resort this year. We also now have cell phone coverage around our office if you have a Verizon cell phone.  This has limited connectivity just around our office area and we ask that you be respectful of others as only 3 can connect at one time.  This is not for kids to be using for text messaging etc... but is a wonderful upgrade for people that need to stay connected while away from home.  Our internet cafe has 2 computers for you to use and wireless for those that have their own laptops to bring in.  

  Take some time to check out our picture gallery We added some new rental properties to our program, one is called the Rainbow Cottage and is located on the Big Pine Creek with access to the Pine Creek Rail Trail. We also added the Dun Rov'n Cabin that is located on the front of our property on Little Pine Creek Road. You can see pictures of both of these cabins on our picture gallery along with our other cabins.
 Our renovation project on Little Cabin is done and we have renamed it the Squirrels Nest Cabin. Now a beautiful 2 bedroom cabin with a jacuzzi tub in the master bedroom 2 decks and large pictures windows throughout, it is a great cabin for families etc....

More information about our resort:

We've had an interesting variety of pets come stay with us over the years, some of the more interesting were a pet goat, our first horses and even Peyton the cat!  Click on our pets page to see  pictures of the various animals, such as Rufus Swartley the goatl  His owners say all they have to do is pull out the camper and he gets excited knowing he is going camping!  You can also see Buck and Skip who took their owners, the Massaro's, on a beautiful mountain trail ride.  They parked their horse trailer for the evening and took an early morning ride, stopped back to eat at the restaurant and went out for an afternoon ride. We are so glad people are bringing pets and as they do we are finding out how creative people with pets on vacation can be!  We have had many dogs from the tiniest little Yorkies to an extra large Great Dane, and it seems the animals have as much fun as the people do!   If you come visit us and bring your pet, be sure to stop by the office and let us know so we can get your picture to put on our pets page!

 
    The local streams and the lake at Little Pine State Park have been busy with people fishing, canoeing, and kayaking.  We have had quite a few campers bring their 4-wheelers up to take to the local Haneyville ATV trail.  The rail-trail and the state hiking trails are a wonderful way to enjoy the outdoors, get some great exercise and view the local wildlife.  And there is much wildlife to see here, such as the bald eagles nesting at the state park.  We have had sightings of bear around the campground, along with deer, turkey and bobcat, blue heron's, woodpeckers and of course lots of squirrels and chipmunks gathering acorns for winter.  So much to see, so much to do - so make some plans to come relax and enjoy one of the prettiest mountain areas of Pennsylvania!  We look forward to a peaceful fall and hope you come visit!

We are located in the Williamsport area campgrounds as well as the Wellsboro area campgrounds and the Lock Haven area campgrounds with Williamsport and Lock Haven approximately 25 miles from our resort and Wellsboro 40 miles from us.

Weddings

w
 
Rachel and Mark were married at our Happy Acres Lodge.  This creative couple walked over the covered bridge and were officially married while their guests watched from the deck of the Lodge.  After the ceremony the couple and their friends and family celebrated with a reception at the Happy Acres Restaurant!  It was a beautiful day for an outdoor wedding and we are so happy they chose to have a Happy Acres Wedding!!!
 You can go to our wedding page to see pictures of this wedding and also of  Tina and Skip's reception that they held at our Lodge back in the spring of 2006.   It seems the Lodge turned out to be a perfect setting for Skip and Tina's "big day" and they enjoyed it so much they are making it a yearly vacation spot !! 
Click here to see some wedding pictures from both weddings.  We would enjoy working with you to plan a mountain wedding for you.  Our restaurant has the facilities to hold banquets and cater gathering.  Kim will work with you to create the perfect menu for your special occasion.  This is a picturesque setting for an outdoors wedding ceremony. If you would like more information please call our office and set up an appointment to meet with us to discuss the possibilities.
