Pets are not allowed on furniture nor on or in the beds. Guests will be charged an additional cleaning fee of not less than $150 if pet fur causes a delay in cleaning services. No, we do not expect every piece of dog fur to be gone but, fur gets trapped in the bed linens, comforters, and furniture, and takes a lot of time and effort to clean.

For the most part we have excellent guests and rarely have an issue with any of the above mentioned (smoking, vaping, pet policy, messes, etc). However, on the occasion, we have guests that completely disrespect our property, therefore, we needed to institute stricter policies. We love sharing our home on the beautiful Penns Creek and we want to continue sharing the wonders of the wildlife and the beauty of the mountains. If you have any questions regarding the policies please do not hesitate to send us an inquiry before booking your stay.
We look forward to having you stay at Trout Run Cottage.

Amazing Stay
As always, this house delivers a great time. Fishing, kayaking, fires out back…all while having views of the creek and sunset to the west. The owners are very nice and responsive to any questions you might have. Can’t wait to book my next trip!!!

R&R
The perfect place for some well needed R&R. Enjoyed the hot tub and especially having Penns Creek right there. Unfortunately we came right after several days of heavy rain and didn’t get much fishing in (water was too rough). We did take a few short drives to the lakes in the area. My dog loved it and first time we saw her enjoy the water we will definitely come visit again in summer or fall. The mountains are beautiful in the fall. Thank you Bill and Mary for being such wonderful hosts. Oh and don’t forget to visit the shade mountain winery and the Amish market nearby

Perfect Little Hideaway
We had a perfect weekend. The house was just as advertised. The babbling brook was picture perfect while we also received snow so it was even more beautiful with the snow, the creek and the rolling hills and trees. The owners were even quick to clear the driveway and the sidewalk before we awoke. Great little breweries nearby that we loved. It is definitely something my husband and I will come back to in the summer and winter months. Thank you Mary and Bill

Perfection
Our first stay at Trout Run was exactly what I had hoped for. The cabin was spotless, well-stocked, and felt very private. We enjoyed the hot tub, lounging on the couch, cooking, and watching the water in the creek. We saw a great blue heron in flight twice! The weather was cold and very windy--not surprising for January in the mountains, but the cabin was cozy inside. I highly recommend the cabin, and look forward to visiting again.
