About this property

Shawnee Forest In Town Retreat

  • About this space
    Hi! Our home is pet friendly with a one time pet fee of $50.00. Our cozy home is located in the heart of Harrisburg, which is know as the "Gateway to the Shawnee National Forest." The home is within walking distance of some very nice downtown shops and restaurants. The Tunnel Hill Bike Path is only one block away, and the beautiful Garden of the Gods is a scenic 22 mile drive away. Come put your feet up on our screened in porch and watch the squirrels play!
    The space:
    This home is over 100 years old. You can expect high ceilings, and original wood accents. It is very cozy and welcoming to families. With an older home, please also expect old pipes and things like that.
    Guest access:
    Local restaurants and shops can easily be reached on foot. There is a bike path only a block away. Grocery and other stores having anything you may need are only a short drive away.
