My husband and I chose Harmony Forge Inn & Barn as our out of state wedding venue for 2 reasons…read more 1.) It doubled as a place to stay for my immediate family who were all travelling from Austin, Texas and 2.) Our ceremony and reception would only be steps away from each other! (easier for guests). The Inn: The mansion is a beautiful 4 bedroom, 4 full bathroom, 1 half bathroom estate complete with parlor, dining room, kitchen (2 refrigerators), and beautiful photogenic staircase. I paid for the full weekend package, which includes all 4 bedrooms and entire house from Friday 8am until Sunday at noon. I also paid for the rehearsal dinner to be held in their dining room area, but once I arrived, the décor in the dining room was too drab for my taste and I ended up setting up in the barn. I would have set up the rehearsal dinner outside, but it unfortunately rained on Friday and Saturday. Some of the old décor is beautiful, but the window treatments and table cloths were just not to my taste and I could not be photographed next to them. However, the wood accents were to die for (staircase)and the house structure was very lovely. The Barn: Perfectly spacious and easy to make glamorous with the right décor. We used globe lights and hung them from the ceiling and it really provided an upscale vibe. I used all real china and glassware, added a few DIY touches like paper flowers, newspaper programs and tall lighted branch centerpieces to execute the look I was going for- rustic glam-it was relatively easy to accomplish. The space can be used for up to 160 guests per the management, but I wonder how crowded that would be. We had a good use of space with 110 guests, but I don't think I would have liked any more people in that size space. (Especially since it rained on my wedding day and we had to set up a temporary ceremony in the dj space in the barn, there definitely would not have been room if we had had any more people. The Cons: 1.) I was very stressed on Friday setting up the barn for the reception. It was hard to get a hold of management for setting up additional tables/chairs. And they forgot a table I requested for the rehearsal dinner I needed for gifts. 2.) Management seemed disorganized. They told me they might rent out the additional room on Saturday night, which I paid for in my full wedding package, until my dad called and they said that was a mistake on their part. They also forgot I had paid for the rehearsal space and I had to remind them. The chairs and tables (they set up) were squished up near the front of the barn and I had to move all the tables back for more room which was time consuming (they set up tables according to your specifications, but it was not like the picture I drew) 3.)The fridges are full of old food which is good or bad depending on who you are, but I would have preferred it empty since how do you know how old that stuff is in there? 4.) THE AC UNITS!!! OMG. They are so loud and the house was SOOOOOO hot. 5.) The barn port-a-potty(ies); I'm not sure we had more than one in operation, I specifically remembered 2 when I visited and it was much larger with 2 stalls, then on my wedding day I only remember seeing one and it was small. I would rate this venue a 3-4/5 based on my experience there, I expected more hospitality. At the end of the day, I felt like we were not super welcome there, more of a nuisance to them. No one really talked to us, or asked us how we were doing during an obviously stressful weekend where all of my plans were literally drowning with the rain. I just expected a little more kindness or at least one conversation with the people who lived there. If you like to be left completely alone, then I'm sure this won't bother you.

The property is…read morelocated in a beautiful part of Pennsylvania (Bellefonte, PA) and is just a hop, skip, and a jump away from Penn's Cave & Wildlife Park, making it a perfect place to stay while exploring the area. We spent one night in the Maid's Quarters, and the accommodation was comfortable, charming, and full of character. The home is beautifully decorated with antiques that add to the Victorian atmosphere and make the experience feel truly special. Nancy, the proprietor, along with Casey and Asia, were all incredibly welcoming, helpful, and pleasant throughout our stay. The breakfast was excellent!! They all went out of their way to make us feel at home. We especially enjoyed the excellent conversations and genuine hospitality. If you're looking for a unique, relaxing, and friendly bed-and-breakfast experience, I highly recommend The Queen. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would gladly stay again.

We stayed in room two, which was very nice for us; it overlooks the front of the home, and has plenty of windows for a nice cross breeze which we enjoyed in early May for sleeping. The property overlooks a quiet spring in the back, where chairs and a firepit are nestled near the stream. We had a nice time sitting on the back deck and getting to know Carrie and Dave, and another guest; the innkeepers were genuinely interested in getting to know us, but not overly involved and had zero problem giving us and the other guests plenty of room to enjoy the home ourselves. Breakfast was again very generous and enjoyable for us; we are healthy eaters and picky about what we eat. We did not go hungry whatsoever. Breakfast consisted of ham quiche, fresh coffee and tea, milk, sausage, muffins, Greek yogurt with fresh cut fruit and a crumbled topping. All amenities were accounted for in the rooms including towels, soap, shampoo, body wash, Q-tips, cotton, plenty of towels, and clean drinking glasses. We could not have asked for a nicer stay and plan to go back again.

Given the circumstances we're living with in 2020, I honestly didn't think I would get the chance…read moreto safely travel again for a couple of years. So when a family member approached me and asked me if I wanted to stay at this inn, I was surprised; but, after learning more, I excitedly said yes. This was the right decision and led to a fantastic and relaxing weekend away from the city. This nature inn sits in Bald Eagle State Park and has 16 guest rooms, a handful of meeting room/library spaces, and is absolutely beautiful. The rooms on one side of the inn overlook a lake, with the other side facing a cluster of trees. My relative and I ended up facing the trees, but we were totally fine with that - especially since the fall foliage was starting to set in. We were on the 2nd floor, so we were able to enjoy the view from a private balcony throughout the weekend; it looked like the 1st floor rooms had little patios instead, so no matter what, guest rooms have some sort of outdoor seating. Normally, guests would all be able to enjoy a communal patio and fire pit here. Granted, some other guests (as it appeared that a large group came here together) did go ahead and enjoy this space. My relative and I did not because avoiding people is a must these days, but still, what we saw of these spaces looked great. Definitely something to remember for the future. Speaking of avoiding people - it's 2020, so naturally, my relative and I were focused on what the inn is doing to protect guests. The answer is, plenty! Cleaning and sanitizing the inn is a big thing, naturally. The small size of the inn definitely helps, as it's not particularly big and doesn't lend itself to the gathering of huge crowds. Masks are a must and for the most part, this rule was adhered to; I passed by a couple of guests that I think just forgot theirs momentarily, but staff definitely took the rule seriously. Their dining room is currently closed - all meals are prepped and offered as take-out or delivery. Fortunately, the rooms include a fridge, so it was super easy for my relative and me to bring snacks and store our leftovers so that we were stocked and well-fed all weekend. Also, while you can request items that you need for your room, daily turn-down service is not happening right now - that way, only guests are in their rooms during their stay. The result was that I felt extremely relaxed while I was in the inn, knowing that my space and health was being respected and taken seriously. A couple of notes - the mattresses here were admittedly very hard and uncomfortable, and while they didn't ruin our stay, it's still nice to have my comfy soft bed back. I don't really hold this against the inn though since, frankly, I think all hotel beds are uncomfortable by default. Speaking of things I don't hold against them - this is a nature inn, so you better expect some of the local wildlife to try to get into your room. When I first opened my balcony door some stinkbugs fell onto me because they had gathered around the door frame - whoops! The good news is that the door itself was very well sealed, so the little jerks couldn't get in when the door was closed. Again, I don't hold that against the inn at all, seeing as it's set right in a state park. Still, I think it's fair to remind other guests and readers that when you visit a nature park, you better be ready to experience everything nature throws at you. If any of this sounded like something you would enjoy, I encourage you to visit the inn's website to learn more about staying here; there is a lot of information there about a range of other topics, such as how the entire facility is designed to be ecologically sound, what to expect when you visit during different seasons, and what sorts of outdoor fun awaits you in the surrounding nature park. I definitely recommend this beautiful inn as a getaway option - now and in the future; and I hope to be back one day to enjoy more of the surrounding area!

I stayed at Northland on the Saturday night of Arts Festival weekend. I got to the property early,…read moreabout 11am. The motel front desk was the bowling alley counter. I was told that the room wasn't ready yet, and they charged my card at that time. Since the room wasn't available, I went downtown to the Arts Fest. I got back to the motel about 11pm, to get my room key. I was going to stop in the pub there for something to eat. When I go close to the door, I saw two guys, one visibly intoxicated, and the other trying to talk him out of whatever issue they had had inside. They settled the issue, and went back inside. I decided against going in. Walking around the corner to get my bags, I saw that 2 or 3 rooms on each floor had the doors open, and the guests sitting outside, on benches and the floor, drinking. Finally getting into my room, I went to use a towel, and the towel rack immediately fell apart. I went to call the front desk, but no one picked up. At that point, I noticed that the room clock wasn't working. It had been unplugged, but it didn't work once I plugged it in. Trying to go to sleep, I noticed that 3 of the 4 pillow cases were dirty, in one way or another. But I was tired enough, and I went to sleep. It wasn't until the morning that I noticed the toilet, pictured here. That got me to looking around, where I also saw the dried red residue near the fridge. Getting no answer on the room phone, I called the motel on my own phone. I finally got through to someone who told me that the housekeeping staff was new, and that their work had not been checked. I was told to talk with the owner, but because I didn't let them know sooner, they weren't going to do anything for me. And the owner wasn't available anyway. At that point, I just wanted to leave, so we settled that. I tried calling the property to talk with the owner-four attempts over three days, and I spoke (politely) to someone each time, leaving a brief message with my name and phone number. In one call, I was told that Sabrina was the owner. In another call, Frank was the owner, before I was finally told that Frank and Sabrina co-owned the property. As of this writing, a week after checking out and five days after my last message for the owner(s), I've not heard back from anyone.

A special shout out to housekeeper Pam, I am not sure if she is a one woman crew but she is the only housekeeping staff person I saw my entire stay and she is wonderful. She not only keeps the rooms immaculate but she is approachable, personable and knowledgeable and definitely worth mentioning. If she is indeed the only housekeeper you wouldn't believe it by both her pleasantness and cleanliness of the rooms. I locked myself out of the room in the middle of the night due to a fire alarm going off and she promptly unlocked the door and behaved modest when I tipped her. She is a rare gem and staff like her make staying here worth while and make the experience feel more like staying at a full service hotel rather than a no frills motel.
