Perfect in Every Way

Due to circumstances beyond our control, we had last minute scramble to find a place for 3 adults and our dogs. Lee was responsive and allowed us to rent it on the day of check-in. Thank you for saving our Thanksgiving. The Governor's Retreat was perfect. Clean, cozy, quiet and relaxing are the terms that come to mind. We can not wait to visit it again.

Tranquility

This place is not done justice by the pictures and description. If you imagined a getaway place this is what you’d have dreamed up. A stream literally right out the front door, stone and wood, fireplace… fantastic!. The entire property would be a fantastic place to gather as family for an event or just to get away from the world for a bit

A unique and idyllic property.

This is a special place, uniquely situated feet from the Dingmans Creek. The cabin is well appointed and cared after, the pride of owners Lee and Sonda, a peaceful retreat from the busy world outside Dingmans Ferry. We thoroughly enjoyed the cabin and the company of the owners, enjoying a beautiful early fall weekend. Our only regret is being too early for the peak foliage but we enjoyed being outdoors for meals and fires for a spectacular night. We also enjoyed Lee's retelling of the history of the place and the cabin and it was special to know the history of Gov Sproul, a name familiar to all from Delco. The Govenor's Retreat is a truly special place and one we'd like to revisit with our dog, Sasha.

Better than expected

Cottage was amazing. Scenery was beautiful. The pictures and descriptions online are very accurate, but you cannot fully appreciate it until you’re there in person. The property host (Lee) was very friendly and accommodating. We don’t often say this about weekend getaways, but we will be back here again.
