Visiting for Celebration of Life at Elk Visitor Center
Location great for going back and forth to see the Elk and us needing to be near for the Celebration of Life.Only issue we had was figuring out the Heat/AC. Couldn't adjust and wasn't sure how to change the temperature.We stayed one night previously in September, so we knew what to expect at the rental, and made it easy for use to stay one night again for this occasion.Thanks for sharing your vacation cabin with us!!Angie, Mitch and Dylan
We love this cabin! Clean, has all you need inside and out, peaceful, the hosts are fantastic. In my rush before leaving, I forgot to write down cabin code. We drove a couple miles to get service, called them and they provided the cabin number. For some reason I wasn’t on website but they were so nice about me calling. We really enjoyed ourselves and recommend this cabin. Thank you!!

Minor difficulties
Too short advance notice to bring correct sized sheets and log in info for personal streaming services, lower water pressure, living area chilly, May experience no Wi-Fi in this area so may have difficulty finding rental

Slice of Heaven
Our family wanted to enjoy some time in the Benezette area and watch wildlife. We couldn't have found a more perfect home away from home if we had tried! This cozy A-frame was perfect for our needs and was very spacious. There were plenty of deer to watch at the property and the scenic elk drive and visitors center was just minutes from the property.
This well-appointed cabin was the perfect place to relax, unwind and enjoy nature at it's finest. While we cooked our own meals at the cabin, there are plenty of places nearby to dine or grab a quick bite. We loved the campfire ring near the water. If you don't want to cook in the kitchen, there is also a grill and smoker available for use.
The hosts were receptive to questions and were quick to answer us our questions. Having wifi at the cabin was also a plus since there isn't cell service readily available.
Enjoy this little slice of Heaven on Earth that is close to many activities yet secluded where you can rest and relax. We will definitely be returning in the future.

Almost fall getaway
This little A Frame is perfect!It is eqipped inside with everything you will need, well minus a dishwasher but we got through it! The outdoor space is perfect with acdpavious yard. Although the crick didnt have much water the kids still had fun! We saw some deer and hundreds of squirrels playing in the trees! The hosts left us a special gift which we really enjoyed! You have to book with them to find out what it is!
We will definitely book here again! It was a perfect weekend.

Nice little camp!
We picked the place for the outdoor space and it did not disappoint! We hosted a large group on Saturday afternoon for our family reunion and it had everything we needed. Our only complaint was there was no hot water during our stay so we had some pretty refreshing showers! Overall we were very happy with our stay. And honestly, probably the most responsive communication I have ever had with any host on various house rental platforms!

Great getaway spot
We really enjoyed our four night stay at the A-frame cabin. It was super clean and had plenty of space for the two of us. We loved the deck and yard, and we enjoyed having a campfire each night. Nicole and Dan were very responsive to a few minor issues. Dan gave us great local tips on areas to view some elk up close. He was spot on with his recommendations and our elk viewing experience really made our trip feel complete! We also saw plenty of deer near the cabin and all over Benezette. The cabin is in a great location, not far from Route 555. It's not totally secluded but still feels very private. We rarely saw other people or cars in the area. This was our first visit to Benezette and we would gladly stay here again in the future.
