Quaint, quiet, clean, and cute deer visitors ever morning and evening. Turkey visitors also. Did not disappoint as home base for day drives and elk viewing. Will definitely return if in the area again. Thanks to both of you!

My family and I had a wonderful stay at this cabin. It is extremely clean, and the views from the porch are beautiful. At the cabin, we saw deer, a turkey, a coyote and 2 bald eagles (1 adult and 1 juvenile). We were lucky enough to see elk on our first night in Benezette. We finished our our getaway with a bonfire and s’mores at the cabin. I would highly recommend staying at this location. Communication was excellent as well.
Awesome wrap around porch with beautiful views.

Beautiful cabin

This cabin is located in a gorgeous location. We sat every morning with coffee on the large beautiful covered deck and watched deer frolick. The cabin itself was immaculate. The kitchen large and well stocked with appliances and needed kitchen tools and dishes. Wonderful and kind hosts. Perfect!

Perfect

I was very impressed with the cleanliness, not only with the cabin itself but all the dishes, pots and pans ; silverware; glasses (I’m very fussy when it comes to cleanliness). We probably spent most of our time sitting on the porch, we loved the privacy. We didn’t want to leave and can’t wait to go back!

PA Memories

My wife and I enjoyed this wonderful cabin get-a-way in the PA Wilds. The front porch view of the mountains, corn fields and occasional deer both mornings and evenings was so peaceful. The cabin amenities were perfect for us. Good location to travel back country roads, fish, find a trail to hike and sight see. If you want a place to unwind this cabin is it.

The cabin was even better than the pics showed. Very cozy, clean and inviting. We love to view wildlife and fall foliage and Cameron/Elk/McKean and Potter County certainly didn’t disappoint. We will definitely be going back again, God willing.

The rental was very accommodating for our annual Old Guys Fishing event. Had everything needed available in nice quiet private setting. We made friends with the local farmer and were given access to fishing from his property. We learned some new streams areas to fish and had a great time.

October 2023 stay

Beautiful fall foliage surrounding the cabin. Along a main road, but not disturbing. Convenient location to Sinnemahoning, Emporium, and Benezette. My husband and I saw elk a few houses away from the cabin’s location. Timely communication from owners.
