To compile our lists, we scour the internet to find properties with excellent ratings and reviews, desirable amenities, nearby attractions, and that something special that makes a destination worthy of traveling for.
One of the best parts of planning a getaway just might be deciding where we’re going to stay. While we can book a room at our favorite hotel or motel, we don’t always want to confine ourselves to the traditional, instead opting to stay somewhere unique. Pennsylvania hosts a variety of unique overnight accommodations – from a pre-Civil War-era house with a retro vibe to a luxury glamping dome. If you love the water, you can always rent a waterfront home. However, for a really unique getaway, book one of these incredible Pennsylvania houseboats.
