A proper getaway should be relaxing and easy to plan. Enjoy this 3-day itinerary to the best of Addison, PA, for an easygoing, personalized getaway experience.

Day 1

Check in to your room between 4-9pm. Whether traveling from near or far, a cozy night in with a home-cooked meal is just what you need to kick start your weekend getaway. Request one of our seasonal dinner options before arrival to kick back after your day of traveling. Whether you choose a casually romantic dinner for two, a simple charcuterie board, or a fabulous prix fixe meal, dinners at Hartzell House are an experience all on their own!

The atmosphere around the Inn is so cozy, no matter what room you choose. Rooms and cottages will be prepped for your arrival so you can snuggle into fresh linens and start your 3-day itinerary in comfort.

Day 2

Day 2 is all about experiencing the great outdoors of PA. There are so many outdoor options that are accessible to all skill levels. Here are some possibilities:

• Hiking and Biking — Southwestern PA has some of the best hiking and biking trails in the state. Whether you check out the popular Ohiopyle State Park or perhaps find a more private one on the list, we are confident there is a trail for everyone.
• Frank Lloyd Wright Houses — Explore the “organic architecture” of landmarked homes such as Falling Water (open until Dec. 31), Kentuck Knob, or Polymath Park.

Consider packing a to-go lunch picnic with two gourmet sandwiches or wraps, salty snacks, fruit, sweets, and a beverage as you take time to get outside and see the sights. Our add-ons include customizable grab-and-go lunches.

For dinner, consider dining at the Inn again with one of our home-cooked options or perhaps trying out one of our favorite local restaurants. Places like the Friendsville Public House or Aces Run Restaurant and Pub are ones that you can’t go wrong with!
