Summer is waiting for you at Whispering Willows Farm

Whispering Willows Farm is waiting for you! When you are a guest at the Farm you have acres and acres of property available for your outdoor recreation, rest, and enjoyment of the property’s tranquility.

Come walk the Pond and Hemlock Creek Paths, breathe in the fresh air, create an Epicurean delight in the Kitchen, outdoor Grill or Fire Pit by the pond, enjoy the magnificent sunsets, take a dip in the pond, fish, recreate, rest and restore.
Summer is a wonderful time to experience the Farm's dramatic forested walkways, the soft light of long summer days and the joy of walking the paths around the pond and hearing the gentle bubbling of the winding creek along the Norwegian Pine Trail.

Wrap up your day with a fire by the pond, (firewood is provided at no charge) or settle in with your favorite evening libation on the deck while watching wonderful sunsets reflect on the pond via the expansive westward views. Finally, at the end of the evening step outside on a clear night marvel at the thousands of twinkling stars.
Sleep well through the night on our premium king and queen beds with individual AC in each room. Enjoy our 400sq. ft. 1st floor Master Bedroom with private bath and sitting area which provides easy access for persons with limited mobility and its own private views of the westward sunsets.

Whispering Willows Farm is just 25 minutes away from the Main Park Road entrance to Rickets Glenn State Park with its magnificent waterfalls, acres of preserved woodlands and the Loyalsock State Forest and state game land nearby. Ricketts Glen harbors Glens Natural Area, a National Natural Landmark. Take the Falls Trail and explore the Glens, which boast a series of wild, free-flowing waterfalls, each cascading through rock-strewn clefts in this ancient hillside. The 94-foot Ganoga Falls is the highest of 22 named waterfalls. Old growth timber and diverse wildlife add to the scenic area.
