Weekend Trip to FernRock Retreat
Sandy and John are fantastic hosts with a couple charming little cabins. Great wildlife and birding right on the property. Looking forward to visiting again soon.

Lovely place for a peaceful retreat for a chilly November weekend, even with a 5 year old. Sandy and John were such kind and welcoming hosts. The red cabin is an updated church camp cabin, with electric radiators and a modern wood stove for heat, a pretty cool composting toilet (indoor), sink+shower, simple kitchen with induction stove, and 2 bedrooms with linens and towels. Our 5-year old loved the tree house, fairy house, labyrinth, meditation stations, boat and Pooh's house and library. And we got really good at shuffleboard! Would definitely recommend and would like to go back.

Cozy cottage on a peaceful, beautifully maintained property with generous hosts. Highly recommended. Hiking nearby at Nockamixon State Park was fun as well.

Sandy and John were excellent hosts and wonderful stewards of their land. They went above and beyond to make my partner and I feel welcome. It was an extremely comfortable and peaceful weekend at Fern Rock, and we would absolutely love to return.

Sandy and John could NOT have been better hosts. They are wonderful, lovely people who welcome folks onto their property to explore and reconnect with nature. The cabins are exactly what you need for a short stay. The property is magical with hidden gems all throughout. If you happen to wake up at 3am like I do, you cannot hear the highway. At a certain point just before dawn, the highway and crickets are silent. It is truly one of the most peaceful places just outside of Philadelphia. We stayed with family friends who were staying in one of the two cabins on the property. Plan a magical retreat with your family or loved ones and let Sandy and John teach you how to reconnect with nature!

We stayed in the cabin by the water with our 3 month old and it was lovely. Very peaceful with great trails on the property and awesome animals. Sandy and John were very nice.

This was our second time starting at Fern Rock. We stayed in the cabin by the creek this time and it was just as beautiful and calming as our last visit. Is a great place to visit with the kids and have fun in the woods, following the creek, and playing in the huge yard. Of course, we can’t forget about the labyrinth/maze; it’s my little guys highlight and we can spend hours entertained there. It’s always a good time and nice knowing that Sandy and John are so close by.

A very tranquil setting for peace & relaxation. Sandy & John have put a lot of thought into their property which they graciously share with others. I loved sitting in the screened in porch surrounded by nature. The prayer walk & labyrinth were special touches.

It was so peaceful. The remarkable thing was that even though it was really hot in Philadelphia, only an hour away, it was cool enough at Fern rock to need a little blanket in the evening. The cabin was spotless and in incredibly good shape.
Sitting on the screen porch was like looking through lovely picture windows. Sandy and John were readily available but not intrusive in anyway.

Weekend Trip to FernRock Retreat
Sandy and John put thought into absolutely every aspect of this hipcamp. It was not just a place to stay, but a whole experience. The mossy landscape by the creek, the privacy, the craftsmanship of the treehouse, the offerings of the meditation walk, the little details in the home, the chickens roaming around, floating down the stream — we felt like we were living in a fairy tale. Moreover, it can be very expensive to experience this type of thing these days, and we appreciated that the cost of the stay was reasonable. Thank you for offering a part of your world to others!

Weekend Trip to FernRock Retreat
We had an incredible trip. Very private, very moving. There's lots of energy on this property.
We didn't have a long stay so we didn't socialize too much but Sandy and John were incredibly kind and welcoming when we did need to talk.

I definitely recommend this place to anyone willing to enjoy nature. We went hiking along the creek and it was a nice walk. We enjoyed getting our footwear full of mud and we were also able to catch and release river crabs. That's an amazing experience. Sandy is such a sweet host. We me John when we were leaving because he is always working. Fire pit in the labyrinth is such a great experience.

Weekend Trip to FernRock Retreat
We are a family from Ukraine, outdoor recreation is an integral part of our lives, we thank God that we were lucky enough to visit this place, every part of which is made with love and care. Sandy and John are incredibly friendly and sincere people (God bless you). The house has its own history and you will feel it, it is a place of recharge and renewal! We will come here again and again!
