I'm aware this a bit late, however, if you do go to that area in the future, stay in Wellsboro. The wife and I consider Wellsboro itself a destination. The town has survived until recently by being very tourist friendly, and motorcycle friendly as well. Recent gas well work has made it a boom town of sorts, but it hasn't lost the friendly inviting flavor.
Be aware that natural gas well work is still going on in this area, so be careful about trucks on the back roads and get reservations at where you want to stay. Mostly weekends are fine as far as truck traffic goes, but there's also a lot of fall activities that book up lodging.
The older Penn Wells hotel has a tavern and restaurant on the ground floor. The rooms are clean but old. The Lodge is the other part, very new, looks like a Courtyard. If nice new is what you like, stay there.
The various restaurants in town are all good, and browsing in Dunhams Department store is like going back to the late 60s, with modern merchandise.It makes an ideal hub for a "shamrock" tour.
Another, but pricier area is Eagles Mere, a very picturesque place on top of a mountain. We stayed there a year ago in a B&B in a package deal, fine dining and all. Somewhat costly, but the food was great and we don't normally do that sort of thing so it was a nice change. EM is right beside Worlds End State Park, which is sort of a miniature of the PA Grand Canyon. Even if you stay in Wellsboro, it is an easy ride over to Eagles Mere. EM started as a getaway for the very wealthy, and retains that flavor today. There is an aircraft museum there as well. Remember, Piper was just outside of Williamsport for years, and Lycoming aircraft engines are still made in the Williamsport area, which is the county seat of Lycoming county.
Another general area is State College, plenty there as well. Some of the members on this site live there.
If you need specifics, I'll do what I can to look them up for you. Please feel free to ask. There's a lot to do, see and enjoy around here, and we have great roads for Teneres. Some are remote and rough, which makes the Tenere all the more appropriate. Most of the State Forests have maps which show what are termed "drivable trails" which are mostly ideal for Teneres. Which is part of the reason I have one.
There's enough stuff in the general area to entertain any taste for a week or more. We share the same topography and a lot of the same flavor of the popular areas in West Virginia.
