What a gem
The stay at Yaffa's was even more than I was hoping for...I could see the sunset/rise through the trees, start my day by walking around a pond (sometimes filled with geese!), and found the space to be so charming & creative. Yaffa is a warm and kind host, who made me feel welcome & at ease. I can't recommend her place highly enough. *Thank you*

Loved this gorgeous spot //rustic renovated barn.
Took my 11-year-old for a mother-daughter getaway weekend -- and took full advantage of the pool and the canoe/pond, and lovely area -- enjoyed nearby hiking and horseback riding, the Saturday farmer's market in Perkasie and most of all the night sky from the hammock. Yaffa's place is lovely, rustic with artistic flourishes. She herself was a lovely host and met all of our simple needs. Though no proseccco, we had a lovely time.

Peaceful rustic retreat on a wonderful pond.
Lovely picture view from within, fun pond activities outdoors.
Perfect location for a nearby family reunion. When not visiting family, we were at the pond:
- nature walks around the pond and property
- canoeing
- most of all - fishing - caught over 50 bass. I suggest the 3/8 ounce Arbogast Jitterbug. Lots of fun!
Yaffa was very friendly and helpful

Nice peaceful retreat
Cozy little barn studio with a beautiful picture window overlooking the pond. Yafa and company are very friendly and helpful with any needs. We loved the fresh cut flowers.

A sweet little retreat
We so enjoyed our weekend at Yafa's. The house is truly tiny but so well designed and aesthetically terrific. It is a renovated portion of a barn, with a combined living/room kitchen and a sleeping loft. It overlooks the lovely pond, where there is canoe available for use. Note that the house is really an out-building on Yafa's large property, and the pool is more-or-less attached to her main house. So your stay is private but not entirely so, in that you'll see the owner coming and going. That said, we were there escaping from the city heatwave and spent nearly the entire weekend in her pool with no issues at all. The property and the owner are both lovely and interesting -- a great find!

Wonderful escape from the city!!
My husband, 4 yr old daughter and me had an escape from NYC to Yafa's wonderful quiet and serene property. We canoed in the lake, swam in the well water pool and relaxed in the small, but perfect accommodations. We saw a family of blue herons, a groundhog and a ton of butterflies. So many of the VRBO, AirBnB places are not well appointed, but Yafa's place IS! All the lights are on dimmers --- so important --- the furniture is sparse and perfect for the space. Great for clean freaks and people who love to cook. Beauty is everywhere you look, both inside and out. Will visit again. ❤️
