Very close to house & pool by property, had to walk to river, fence blocks view. Property decorated well, perfect size for my husband & myself. Fire pit seems to be in neighbors backyard, we never had campfire, felt uncomfortable with location

So comfy and so very clean. Our 4th time staying. We come back every year. Two times in Bears Den, once in Paradise and this time in Whisker Biscuit. I think it’s my favorite. See you next year!!

Not as listed and host did not respond to my email notes after our visit.
I wrote all of this to the host upon my return home. But did not hear any comments in return. Theses are not in yhe order of when I sent thm to my host. First - the "One bedroom" is a studio. Sleeps 4 is a stretch as there is a twin roll-away and a couch (not a sleeper sofa). 2, garbage was left in the kitchen - not that big a deal, but the host should know. 3. Walking f rm the shower to the bed my feet were black - so the floors weren't cleaned between guests. 4. The entry lock needed to be removed and reinstalled as it wobbled badly.. 5, The shower hand-held was upside down so when the shower was turned on, the water went everywhere as it did not stay in place.. My brother fixed it. 6, The A/C unit is hard to reach for a short person, qnd the bar stools are not a safe choice to use to reach it. A step stool would work ok. 7. The A/C vents were quite greasy from, the kitchen cooking. 8. I apologized for not notifying her of our check-out. No internet - so I didn't get the email to respond. 9. And, lastly there is a new-ish fence and no river view. So it was on ok stay, but I was really disappointed I did not hear from my host - especially about the studio rental that was listed as a 1-bedroom.

The suite is listed as having 1 bedroom and sleeping 4. There is nothing in the Expedia advertisement that indicates the bedroom is not really a bedroom but is open to the rest of the space. It should say 1 bed -- not one bedroom. A bedroom implies a separate room that is only a bedroom. Additionally the "sleeps 4" is deceptive because it requires 1 person sleeping on a roll away bed and 1 person sleeping on the well-worn couch. The picture shows a bed with a blanket and pillow on it when in reality you only get a bare mattress. The advertisement did not tell us to bring bedding and the owner did not inform us of the need to bring bedding till we were already on the road. In the owner's words, "We ask once you unload to park in the front parking lot so you can enjoy the river views and scenery.." This implies there is a view of the river from the back of the house. But there is a fence there which blocks any view to the river from the rear of the house. This is another example of inaccurate advertising. We contacted the owner upon entry to discuss the concerns of no bedroom and no bedding. The owner offered nothing and was defensive. We left the premises and requested a full refund. We are requesting a refund from Expedia and ask this place be accurately advertised to prevent other guests from being duped by inaccurate advertising.

Tippy Canoe, Whiskey Biscuit Alleghany Forrest Tidioute Lake/Alleghany Retreat.
Retreating into this Oasis of Tranquility defies words or even pictures. Good for the soul. The accommodations are clean very cute, the manager and owner are very reachable for any concerns, we had none. Hiking, motorcycling, bicycling, from tough single tract to paved asphalt, with no vehicles, along side rivers and creeks, using abandoned R&R paths, fishing, two weeks ago was the PA State Fishing Tournament in Tidioute, the possibilities are endless. The neighbor were very considerate, nice, kind, ands helpful pointing out the nearby points of interest, while everyone respect their everyone's privacy. You do not need to leave the Borough of Tidioute, to enjoy every thing mentioned above. We did though, from Hearts Content, Jacobs Rock, old R&R paths, and logging roads. See Oil City, Tionesta, Franklin, and Warren to see historic architecture built my the sweat and money of oil boom and lumber in the 1850's. Got to go back and bicycle ride Salmon Run Creek. Five nights and 5 days was not nearly enough time., two weeks at least. There is pretty good cell service, no internet, at Whiskey Biscuit, though my gf could use my Android for FB. If you need a phone computer for entertainment, Whisky Biscuit is not for you or you for Whiskey Biscuit. Enjoy the stars under the sky by the river, next to a campfire. Bring a movies and a DVD player if you must. If you want get a life go to Whiskey Biscuit and explore the Alleghany National Forest, you are part owner along with 350,000,000 million Americans take pride and take care of Her (PC incorrect, I know, she is not non binary, she is beautiful, she is Mother Nature). What a nice time, exceeded all my expectations thank you so much. Tom Leithold and Linda Koynock.
