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.

Very nice cabin. Loved the porch. Beds are very comfortable. My sister could not find the proper light switches. I did not have a problem.haha As described, the drive in is rough. My SUV was fine. My sister has a sedan so she took the driveway on the opposite side. Very quiet. Herd of deer on the lawn one morning. Easy drive to see elk!

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.

Very impressed with the decor, modern kitchen and bathroom. Loved the large wrap around porch. Very quiet and dark. We saw deer that were close by in the yard eating the acorns and also across the way in the strip between the corn fields. We loved our stay. We only saw three Elk on our travels which is ok, because we have been three years in a row. Highly recommend this cabin. Thanks for the wine.

This was our 2nd stay with Michael and Terri. We really enjoy the seclusion we have at their cabin. The cabin is very comfortable and clean. We enjoyed 2 campfires while there and the new firewood system was very convenient. I had to reach out to them while there, Terri was very prompt at helping me ….thank you.

A great cabin in the woods & mountains of Cameron county. We had deer visit in the morning and evening.
The hosts left us a bottle of local wine, comfortable beds & furnishings ( lightbulbs could be a bit brighter as it was a little tough to read). It is very nice to have a washer & dryer. Wonderful porch to sit on. Road into the cabin is bumpy so make sure you come in a car that can handle an UN paved road. Loved our stay & highly recommend especially during the elk rut season!

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!

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.

House was perfect and property was secluded with views of farm fields and mountains!

This was a perfect spot for our four day vacation with younger children (5&6). Easy to get to where we wanted to hike and bike plus general “wilderness” sightseeing. We even got to see a few elk ! The hosts have a clean property with the rustic feel we were seeking while also giving us the quiet and seclusion we also desire

This is our third time staying at this very rustic beautiful property. It is a well equipped property with amazing beauty that surrounds you. We are looking forward to our next trip back there. If your looking for tranquility this is your spot.

The cabin and grounds is beautiful and well maintained. The only thing I would let any others coming is that the bedrooms are not private except the master. The other two they have listed as “bedroom” have no door or arch way it is one big open room with a small wall dividing between the beds. They are all open to the rest of the cabin. When going to the bathroom or into the master you go passed the beds everything is all open.

We loved EVERYTHING about our stay except, neighbors kept driving through almost daily. Nice people but, we were expecting total privacy to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. We will come back though.

Cabin was as described. Very clean and situated in a private setting but still close to area attractions. We will stay at this cabin again in the very near future.

Property was perfect for a quiet retreat. House was clean and well kept. We enjoyed seeing the Elk in Benezette which wasn't too far from the cabin. We were able to enjoy the company of deer from the porch. We would definitely recommend this cabin if your looking for a quiet retreat.

We had another great stay at this cabin. Our 4th stay.
4.0
The place was nice but small for the 5 adults that stayed. There wasn't enough seating at the table or living room area. We had 5 adults and only 4 chairs at the table. Living room had a very uncomfortable couch and chair. Lucky for us I took a folding rocking chair with us to use outside but ended up using it inside. The cabin is not fully stocked with cooking and eating utensils. Not many spoons or bowls you just keep washing them to use. Only 7 bath towels to use.
1 Bedroom has a door the other two beds have no privacy,
Keep in mind this is more of a hunting cabin then a family vacation home. Big plus was the beautiful porch.
Saw a family of 8+ deer in the mornings. No Elk.
Place is great for no more than 3-4 adults due to amount of seating.
5.0
Beautiful cabin and location. Lots of wildlife to see.
4.0
Overall was a very nice place to stay. Great location . It truly is beautiful country around that area. My only quirks were being charged a 80.00 cleaning fee for a one night stay. Also that cabin musty smell inside was kinda irritating.
5.0
Seriously amazing. Great communication with the owner and check-in and out couldn't have been easier.
If you are looking for somewhere near the elk this is a great choice. In our 5 night stay we saw elk (including a bull across the street from the property), bald eagles, a bear, turkey and the deer who seemed to be at the front door every morning.
The fire pit was used every night. All the rooms were very clean and the furniture was comfortable.
Highly recommend this place!
