Covered bridges often stir memories of days gone by, to a simpler time when life’s pace was just a bit slower. At the height of their popularity in the 20th century, covered bridges totaled more than 1,500 in Pennsylvania with that number hovering around 200 today. One of those former covered bridges, Bridgehouse Airbnb in Pennsylvania, has been transformed into a delightful getaway destination.
Pennsylvania’s home to quite a few unique overnight destinations, but it’s probably fair to say none is quite as uniquely charming as the Bridgehouse in New Wilmington.

The former covered bridge, which once shuttled travelers over McClure Creek, now offers a cozy setting for a relaxing getaway in the heart of Amish country.

You’re sure to feel right at home when you first stroll through the front door of the covered bridge that’s brimming with rustic charm. The three bedrooms comfortably sleep up to six guests.

The home offers a full menu of amenities - from a private entry to WiFi. Bring a tablet or computer along if you’re yearning for a night of binging your favorite show or movies because the cabin doesn’t have a television.

However, it does boast a gorgeous kitchen with everything you need - an oven, a stove, and a refrigerator - to make a delicious meal.

If you’re visiting during the warmer months, you won’t have air conditioning. You will have a beautiful outdoor area to explore, including a tiny private chapel that’s right on the property.
