Filbert Bed & Breakfast

This is my husband and mines second visit and Kathy always makes us feel so welcome. We went for our 1yr anniversary this weekend and were so thankful for all that was done for us.. From the flowers to the bottle of wine. I would not hesitate at all to go back..

Kathy and Sherri helped make our Mother's 80th Birthday celebration so special. The breakfast was delicious and their hospitality unbeatable! Give The Filbert Inn a try for your next family occasion. Valerie Donnelly

Kathy and Sherri are fantastic hosts! My husband and I were looking for a place to find peace and rest from a hectic life, and this place was perfect! Quaint, clean, delicious food, and we were able to truly relax.

Dear Kathy & Sherri Thank you for a delightful afternoon tea. I'm a very detail oriented person and your attention to detail had me taking mental notes! The food was tasty & plentiful and the decor was beautiful. You were both such gracious hostesses. Again thank you for creating a great party. Sincerly, Brenda

Me and my girlfriend spent at filbert 3 gorgeous nights.The owner Kathy is just unbelievable woman. She was taking care about everything. The breakfast was always a choice waffles,fr.toast,eggs,omelets,plus juices,fruits,deserts,omg,its even better than at home. The room was perfectly clean. Also the room was nicely decorated with some antiques and ancient stuff!!! wow!wow!wow! Amazing!!!

My husband and two daughters stayed here for three nights so we could ski. We loved it. The room was comfortable and clean. Breakfast was great. Loved the local feel.

My husband I stayed at the Filbert B&B after a long day of skiing at Blue Mountain. The service was outstanding. Nice accommodations, delicious breakfast and goodies, and very convenient to Blue Mountain. Kathy gave us great tips for area dining too. This was our first time staying at a B&B and we will definitely do it again.

I reserved it for my friend's birthday weekend and indeed Kathy made it special for us. A warm welcome, surprised us with a cake and balloon in the room, suggested us good places to visit and to end our stay well, we were served delicious breakfast. A weekend away from home but you still feel home at Kathy's :)

Thank you Kathy and Sherri for making our wedding day so special. It was pure magic you were able to execute to our plan in less than 3 weeks. The flowers, attention to detail, food, and hospitality was remarkable. My family felt like we were at home. We were so lucky to have found you....

Dear Kathy & Sherri Just a note to thank you for the beautiful wonderful marvelous afternoon we spent with you in your lovely Filbert Bed & Breakfast in celebration of my mothers 90th Birthday. Both of you did a fabulour job! I received numerous phone calls last evening, eveyone telling me how beautiful it was. Thank you again. My mother was elated. God bless you as you continue to serve, bringing comfor, pease and happiness to others! Love and Prayers Dolorus and Gary

Kathy, I have been thinking about you so may days since we left you. You are such a amazing person and I feel blessed to have crossed paths with you. Your warmth is still with me. No doubt we'd be close friends if I lived closer. Thank you for the birthday message. What a surprise on the trail to receive. Miss you and the Filbert. Much love Jill Ocean Springs MS

In seeking a home base for a mother-daughter weekend last week, we couldn't have asked for a better host in Kathy and husband Terry or a more lovely B&B. Native to the area, Kathy tuned into our interests and then provided exactly the right amount of advice, fact and color commentary to make everything we chose go effortlessly. The historic inn is modernized for comfort and filled with authenticity to its origins. The B&B is in a small town but is convenient to quite a variety of activities, making for a full and wonderful long weekend for us. We also loved Kathy's multi-course breakfasts. We would come back in a heartbeat and plan to bring along friends as well. I had never been to this part of PA before and relied on the good reviews on this site and the good vibes I got from speaking with Kathy beforehand. Our room was beautfiul, extremely clean, inviting, and very comfortable. It all turned out even better than my high hopes. The location made for a great home base to various activities. We enjoyed an old-fashioned Drive-in Movie place less than 10 minutes away from the Filbert. (Bonus: breakfast was delayed to allow us to sleep in.) For our whitewater rafting trip in reasonably close Jim Thorpe, Kathy gave perfect advice on what to wear, where to buy a low-cost, delicious lunch and how to ensure it stayed dry, etc. Thanks to Kathy, we also decided to try out the nation's "largest 10-day free music festival" in Bethelem -- a bit of a drive but which was so good we went two nights in a row. To top it off, my guitar-playing daughter was thrilled to enjoy a well-run tour of Martin's Guitar Factory, where high-end guitars have been produced in nearby Nazareth since 1833. In sum, we had a great time and our home away from home at the Filbert was instrumental in making it easy and memorable.

Those of you who would enjoy a marvelous step back in time must visit here.The awesome elegance of the place hits you as soon as you enter.The furnishings and the warm greeting from Kathy will set the tone for your stay.Everything about the place, both inside and out, with the charming grounds will have you relaxed quickly. But to top it all off, get ready for a sumptuous breakfast which will get you started for your day. Needless to say, we will return , again. Paul & Sue

Your homepage states guests enter as strangers and leave as friends (so true).. Our inkeeper Kathy could not do enough to make our stay extra special. We can't wait to visit again. Jim & Kim

Dear Kathy and Sherri, Just a note of thanks for a wonderful wedding shower for Missy. We were looking for a place that would reflect Missy's taste and your country store was perfect. The moment we saw that store, we knew we were in the right place, and found the right hostesses for our party. You made a memory for us that will never be forgotten. Everyone enjoyed the event from the first bite to the last. Everything was perfect and we will be back to enjoy more of the Filbert and you ladies. Friends and family loved it and will visit also. Thanks again for a wonderful day, Jeanne and Andi Boehrer

My husband and I recently had our wedding reception at the Filbert Bed and Breakfast. We had a gorgeous outside wedding that exceeded our expectations. The service was exceptional; everything was well organized and put together. The Inn has an old victorian atmosphere that our guests enjoyed. The courtyard was one of my favorite spots at the Inn. If you are looking for something out of the ordinary instead of a chain hotel, I definitely recommend staying here.

Kathy & Sherri, Laura and I would just like to thank you both again for making Kim's shower everythng we had hoped for and more. The day was perfect and we enjoyed ourselves without having to worry about details. We received a number of compliments on how nice the shower was. Thanks again and we are really looking forward to the Wedding this July at the Filbert Bed & Breakfast. Lynn and Laura

Kathy & Sherri, I just wanted to send you a quck note to say Thank You so much for putting together an amazing Bridal Shower this past Sunday Afternoon. Everything was great and you are some of the best hosteses we have ever had the privelage of working with. I know the demands were intense but everything was truly amazing. Everyone loved it and many will return in the future as will we. You truly have a gift and the B&B is gorgeous. Thaks again for a memorable day. Missy

Last January I was enjoying the Blue Mountain recreation park with my family during the day I had a situation where my car keys got lost. Park staff helped us a lot, which will be eternally grateful. They got us a place to stay overnight at Filbert BED &BREADKFAST an exceptional place. Mrs. KATHY LORAB served us very special and gave us their help in our situation as if we knew as always, I could never imagine that there were people like her and give the most for others. She gave us her cell phone, computer and transported us from one place to another. The facilities and the attention of Kathy will always be remembered by us. We loved the historic house and its decoration; it was like a dream to be there.

My husband and I had the pleasure of staying at the Filbert Bed and Breakfast earlier this month and had a wonderful time. Kathy was amazing and made us feel very welcomed and right at home. Her hospitality was impeccable and her homemade country breakfasts were delicious! We would definitely recommend this bed and breakfast!

There isn't a rating high enough to tell you how wonderful my stay was at the Filbert. Kathy and Sherri were both amazing Innkeepers who went above and beyond to ensure I was well taken care of. I spent 2 weeks there so I could be with my mother as she passed away. Kathy and Sherri provided support and caring that I never expected, helping me get through the most difficult time in my life. Words cannot express how grateful and thankful I am to both of them. The Victorian house is absolutely breathtaking and there is such attention to detail throughout the entire house. If I am ever in that area, there is no place else I would even consider staying. Please visit the Filbert. As they say, you will enter as strangers but leave as friends, and your life will be so much richer for doing so.

Everything about the Filbert is warm and inviting. We enjoyed our relaxing 3 night stay while skiing at very nearby Blue Mountain. Kathy was always very helpful and accommodating and her cooking is excellent and service impeccable. We look forward to staying at the beautiful Filbert B&B again soon.

Feb 2012: We stayed one night at the Filbert and were very happy. The innkeeper Kathy was very friendly and made sure that my family had everything we needed. If you like a charming place to stay that is extremely close to Blue Mtn, then this is a nice choice. It may be a little more expensive than a hotel, but you do get a great home cooked breakfast in the morning, great hospitality and they have slightly discounted lift tickets to the mountain.

The Filbert Bed and Breakfast is a very nice place to stay. Every effort will be made to make your stay as enjoyable and comfortable as possible. The rooms are very clean and well taken care of. Homemade country breakfast is fantastic. Choice of pancakes, eggs, sausage, bacon- delicious. They even have a butler's pantry with snacks available.

We booked this room "spur of the moment" with no prior knowledge, just an Internet search. It was beautiful and clean and Cathy and her husband made us feel extremely comfortable and at home. I would definitely recommend it!

Our family has typically stayed in hotels when embarking on ski outings. This time we were in for a treat by staying at the Filbert B&B. We all loved it - ages 10 to 74. (70+ gets a free season pass at Blue Mtn.) The rooms, the breakfasts, the chicken noodle soup the 1st evening, and especially the hostess were all great!! The kids loved all the different stairwells up to the guest rooms. Farm fresh eggs and bacon and other ingredients in the breakfasts - good stuff!

We wanted a unique experience to add to our Ski weekend at Blue Mt. - Kathy makes it memorable and has loads of local knowledge and hints about saving $$, where the locals eat etc. Her Inn is beutifully restored, comfortable and the breakfasts superb! Our family did not want to leave.

Looking for a quiet, comfortable, and extremely clean B and B?...This is the one! This was just what I hoped it would be. You will not be disappointed if Kathy or Terry can help it.

Came to the Filbert in thee summer to dive nearby Dutch springs. Kathy made it an awesome stay, providing for every comfort. Meals were delicious, rooms clean comfortable and roomy. Have been here to ski, can't wait to come back for the glorious fall foliage.

Lovely restored farmhouse, wonderful and lavish breakfasts.

We enjoyed our stay. Everything was excellent. We would come again

Could not be better! Charming Victorian, painstakingly restored. Period charm with modern conveniences - hot showers, warm rooms and Hi speed Wifi. Breakfast was farm fresh, elegant and hearty. Hot and fresh crock of soup/chili waiting for guests in the evening. Kids loved it too (8-12 years old).

Historic Inn is charmingly restored with immaculately furnished rooms. Kathy, the innkeeper, is a gracious and thoughtful host, and works hard to meet all special requests. Breakfast is a 5 Star multi course meal, made with farm fresh ingredients, and served in white glove fashion.

The Filbert is a fantastic place to stay. It is very close to the slopes (5 mins). Kathy is adorable and her breakfasts are amazing. After a day of skiing our kids were tired so it was wonderful to order take out and eat it in the dining room. The house is beautiful, the rooms are spacious, very clean and comfortable. The old store is like going back in time. We will be back!

Warm, welcoming, uniquely decorated from times past, and excellent food make this our choice for snowboarding weekends at Blue Mountain. Kathy makes the Filbert Inn one of the greatest B&Bs we've stayed at (and we've stayed in our fair share). If only the skiiers/boarders on the mountain were as considerate!

This was pretty much our first stay at a B & B. It was pretty perfect and we will visit again. It will be difficult for other B & Bs to come close. Kathy, the Innkeeper, bends over backwards for her guests. Her motto is to enter as strangers but leave as friends. That is exactly how it was!!

Enjoyed our brief mid-week stay. Kathy tolerated our late arrival.

The Filbert bed and breakfast is excellent. There are so many positives in this place: the location is superb, only 2 miles from Blue Mountain. It is a very cozy place. Breakfast is excellent too, with farm raised eggs, bacon and potatoes. Everything organic, raised in their own farms. The pest part about this B&B is Cathy the owner. She is the best host. She takes such good care of you. I highly recommend this place. I came with my cousin for a ski trip. I am definitely coming back with my fiancee.

Walked into a very antique place real late during the week. After a short tour our hostess gave us the number to a great pizza shop, that was still open just down the road. Picked up food and finished a movie with some guests already there. A solid rest in our spacious room was greeted in the morning by an awesome omelet.

Owners are very helpful with area info. The restoration is period accurate with hidden modern accommodations (wifi). You could eat off the floor (I'm serious, pick any corner). The beds are period accurate... which was no problem for my wife and I. Even though it's out a ways, you can quickly get to town. We will encourage our off-ski season guests to stay here if and when we relocate from UT.

My husband and I stay at Bed and Breakfast's quite often. This was our first time at the Filber B&B and found it to be outstanding. The room was very clean and the bed comfortable. I was very impressed with our healthy organic breakfast. Almost everything Kathy served us was from a local family owned farm. No pesticides, hormones, antibiotics (for those of you who eat organic). We would DEFINITLY stay here again. If you are planning to visit the area make it a point to stay here. You will not be sorry.

Awesome accomidations, above and beyond my expectations. you've managed to set the bar for all B&B's.

If you appreciate country antiques and a brief return to the past, then this is the place!It doesn't hurt if you enjoy a great country breakfast and very attractive and clean accommodations as well. Paul

My husband and I planned on going to a good friend's son's wedding in Northampton, but couldn't acquire a room anywhere due to the Musikfest crowds. Finally, I tried B&B's and was referred to Filbert. What Serendipity! Husband and I arrived, were greeted graciously by host Kathy and loved the historic details and beauty of the home. We took time to walk some of the lovely grounds and sit with a lemonade on the glider to hear the bird's chirp and take in the lovely views. Thanks to Kathy and Terry's kindness, they came at 11 pm, after their own wedding, to let us in our room (key safely inside!) Thanks to Kathy and Bill for having us as guests. Loved the family-smoked bacon! Sue & Burt H.

My family gathered for an 80th birthday party and felt at home from the time we entered The Filbert. Kathy served awesome breakfasts, the kids enjoyed all of the space, and it was the perfect place for all of us together in the evening. The backyard has lots of tables and space where the children could play at night. We saw deer, groundhogs, and fireflies. Kathy even held the baby one morning so her Mom could eat with all of us!

We were going to the Kutztown Festival and wanted a B&B nearby. The Filbert was a perfect choice. The accommodations were beautiful and the hospitality of Kathy was great. Breakfast alone would make this place special, and the omelets...Umm....! There aren't any closets, but hooks are available to hang things.

Filbert B&B is ideally locatted in Little Gap, PA between Lehigh Gap and Wind Gap. Some AT hikers may find the cost outside their budget, but the place is great. Features: shuttle to and from the trail, laundry, free pops, ice cream, popcorn. Peoprietress, Kathy, is an excellent host and takes great pride in the B&B's comfort and friendliness. The Filbert was my favorite stop on the MD/PA section hike. I highly recommend it. And the breakfast was so delicious and filling, I didn't eat lunch until mid-afternoon!

Kathy rescued me from the Appalachian Trail when I had a bad ankle. She carted me to the B&B, washed my clothes, prepared a wonderful breakfast, and provided a very relaxing venue for my stay. Top notch.

Wow - what a special place. The history of the house and the old general store (where we were able to leave our backpacks and spread out our gear) and the rooms were so elegant. Kathy was such a charmer. She greeted us with homemade lemonade and made us feel at home and part of the family. She made sure we had all of our needs taken care of. She is super and breakfast was awesome even down to the heart shaped butter on the toast.

My wife and I completely enjoyed our stay and the home cooked farm fresh breakfast we received each morning. Kathy made us feel at home right from the start. We never found ourselves more than 20 minutes from anything we wanted to do. Kathy certainly upheld her motto of "enter as strangers, leave as friends..."

I wanted to thank you again for the lovely time Glenn and I had at the Filbert this past weekend. The room and decor were beyone our expectations. all the little conveniences you had placed in the bathroom were so appreciated. I had no idea what to expect in that regard and was overwhelmed by the feeling I got of actually staying in a friend's home for the night. The breakfast you made us was absolutely delicious and presented in such a thoughytful way. The food and presentation was matched only by your friendliness and warmth. the best part, however, was the visit we had with you afterward as you showed us your beautiful property and shared your stories of how it all had come to be what it is today. Kathy, you are an amazing person with so much creativity and drive. That is apparent in everything you have done with the Filbert. I'm sure the prior owner, who you were so fond of, is pleased with everything you have done as he looks down from his peaceful vantage point in heaven.I hope that Glenn and I have an opportunity to return. Best ofluck to you and Terry.Thanks you again for your hospitality.

4 of us from college & 2 other women stayed at the Filbert house for the last weekend in Feb. WHAT A GEM!!!! Aside from the Victorian charm of the building with great rooms & private baths, Kathy the owner was incredible! From ensuring we knew how to find anything we needed, from dinner reservations, lift tickets or mass schedule, her great sense of humor and personality made the trip worthwhile. Coming back from skiing to wine & cheese, delicious filling breakfasts to start the day & antique hats for us to wear for the day made us feel like we owned the place! Can't wait to go back!

This B&B had the perfect location for any time of the year. My boyfriend, brother and his girlfriend just stayed here last weekend and it was what I consider a true getaway. We all felt we had our privacy and we went to Blue Mountain for skiing and tubing which was just a few miles away. We are already looking forward to going back in the summer. In the morning we feasted on delicious breakfast made by the inn kepper. The room accomodations were very comfortable and were in good condition. The inn keeper was extremely cordial, polite and attentive. I couldn't ask for anything more. The B&B also had a butler's pantry available to us with homemade baked brownies and cupcakes. Delicious breakfast, great customer service, nice setting, great location. We highly recommend the Filbert Inn.

This B&B has the ideal location for any time of the year. My husband and I happened to go in the winter and we were just a few minutes away from Blue Mountain for skiing. We are already looking forward to going back for nearby rafting and hiking. The accomodations were very comfortable and the inn keepers could not have been nicer. We were greeted each morning with a great breakfast that kept us full all day. The B&B also had a lot of personal touches like homemade baked goods available to us all day in the kitchen, as well as ice cream and all the toppings for sundaes. We highly recommend the Filbert.

The Filbert Inn decorated in Victorian style makes you feel as if your stepping back in time. The setting is beautiful. The backyard is large and houses a summer kitchen and barn. The landscaping is well manicured. It was nice to sit on the back patio with a glass of wine and see a couple of baby deer scamper across the lawn. Inside the house all the details completely capture the era beautifully. The front porch has rocking chairs and wicker furniture to sit out and enjoy the view with your morning coffee. There is also a well stocked Butler's Pantry for late night snacks or early risers. The owners are fantastic hosts. Kathy and Terry took the time to explain the history behind the inn. They are so friendly and made us feel very welcome. The room we stayed in was very comfortable. All amenities were supplied. Each room has a private bathroom with a shower. There are 2 dining rooms for breakfast. Kathy serves a country breakfast that is very hearty. She is also accommodating to dietary needs. This was our second time staying here and I know it won't be our last.

We had a lovely night after a nearby wedding reception. We had a chance to celebrate our anniversary too! A wonderful breakfast was waiting for us in the morning.

I need to tell everyone, this place is great! Kathy and her Home were exquisite. The accommodations were soft and warm. The food was delicious, her own brown eggs and her brother's farm-raised pigs for the Bacon Yummy!! Kathy helped my companion and I get to places we needed to see. Find our way to the Inn we were coming in from two different directions. Nevertheless, most of all she helped us to relax and enjoy our stay knowing that she was there to help make it fantastic! Thank you Kathy I look forward to seeing you again. Beth and Adrianne

We had a lovely experience at the Filbert Bed & Breakfast. The beautiful Victorian was a pleasure to stay in. It is furnished in the Victorian style with antiques and decorations. The hostess was a delight, and her breakfast was really great!

Kathy goes above and beyond to make her guest stay great! My good friend and I stayed at the lovely Filbert B&B for a weekend of catching up. I got lost trying to find the place on a cold rainy night and Kathy came to where I had pulled over found me and escorted me to the B&B. She provided maps and information about the local attractions and restaurants. The rooms were great, tastefully decorated with very comfortable beds. The breakfasts were great with very generous portions. There are many thoughtful things do make the guest feel pampered and special. I would highly recommend staying at the Filbert B&B and look forward to visiting again.

I recently stayed at the Filbert on my wedding night, and Kathy had a nice surpise of a balloon, sparkling wine, etc. on a tray in the bed...was a very very nice touch! She is very pleasant, and the B&B is very clean and well taken care of. Would recommend it to all.

Don't miss going there, you won't be disappointed. The breakfast is wonderful. Kathy is so helpful with anything you may need. Its like going home again. I can't wait to come back and see you guys again. Don't forget 2011.

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at the Filbert Inn earlier this week. Everything was great The Inn is comfortable, impeccably clean, quiet and charming. The owner (Kathy) your cooking was excellant (our AT thru hiker friend (An Additinal guest was not the only one who ate everything served to him). And thanks again for helping us shuffle the cars around/get to the AT and for accomodating us with our special needs. We hope to do again.

The Filbert B&B - We had a wonderful stay. Kathy and Sharon were more than helpful and the breakfast was over the top. We definitely plan on coming back this year to enjoy another relaxing and romantic time. Thank you Kathy!

This B&B located in Danielsville, PA has a warm and welcoming owner. Kathy made us feel like a family visit. She is very knowledgeable of the area and willing to help us in any way possible. We had 2 wonderful breakfasts at the B&B. We were able to choose what we wanted, something that my husband and I appreciated.

Great accommodations, excellent breakfast, convenient to ski resort...exactly what we wanted.

We arrived at 10:30 pm, and left the next morning by 8 am to go skiing. Our only regret was that we didn't have more time to hang out at the Filbert B & B. Even during this short stay, the charm and comfort of the inn was evident. Kathy was a wonderful host, having breakfast ready for us when we got up, and providing a nutritious start for our day of skiing.

We had a super wonderful time at Kathy & Terry Silfies' Bed&Breakfast historic home. Kathy is a thoughtful host, who had the hot chocolate and cookies waiting for us when we came home from a cold day skiing. Thanks again!!

This is our second time staying at "Kathy's"! Real name is The Filbert Bed and Breakfast. We just couldn't wait to get back. Kathy (innkeeper and hostess) is courteous and thoughtful. You can see that she enjoys what she does. Her breakfast is unbelievably hearty - you can just skip lunch after starting off a morning like this. The rooms are very tastefully decorated, and exceptionally clean. There are different suites to pick from, each decorated in their own unique way. Most important to us – was that every suite had their own bathroom – a big plus! Everything just runs smoothly - you don't know when it happens; the way she brings out courses at breakfast, to the way the rooms are tidied up. Don't forget to request a massage - all you have to do is let Kathy know - she does the rest. We are definitely coming back again real soon!

This is a very nicely and interestingly furnished B&B with private baths. The house is spacious and quiet. Kathy was a great hostess and served a very hearty breakfast. We really enjoyed our stay.

This was our 2nd time back and not our last. If you like a place to stay that has history this place has it. So comfortable, quiet and interesting. The hostess and owner Kathy is like a friend who has invited you into her home. She goes out of her way to do everything possible to make your stay fun and relaxing. The property is so nicely kept and large it isn't hard to find a quiet and private place to relax inside or out. We made friends just sitting around the living room with other guests and Kathy. What more can I say? I can't wait to go back.

Comfortable bed, newly done shower and bath, delightful breakfast AND awesome hospitality! The property is spacious with all sorts of and reflects its former life as a working farm. Kathy picked me up at the Appalachian Trail and made sure I stopped off at a splendid ice cream parlour on our way to the B & B.
