About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Rickett's Glen state Park! Our cabin is only 1/2mile from the trail head.

We have a beautiful cabin On 10 acres that border Ricketts Glen State Park. The cabin is only 1/4 mile from the trail head at the foot of the mountain. This state park offers beautiful views year round. Whether you would like to hike the 22 waterfall trails, rent a kayak on Lake Jean or curl up with a good book on the sandy beach of the lake, we have the peace and quiet you have been dreaming about! There is also excellent mountain biking, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, trail running, and hunting. You will enjoy a relaxing outdoor experience at our cabin. We have a comfortable interior with hardwood floors and all the comforts of home including air conditioning. The outside has many sitting areas including a fire ring and covered back porch.
Please note that we have another mountain home which borders the park. This home would be better for a larger group 4-8 or a family that likes more space. It has 2 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms and a large kitchen, family room and game room.

The cabin is very cute and cozy. The kitchen is a nice size for the size of the cabin. The sofa and recliner in the living room are very comfortable, as are the beds. The outdoor space with fire pit is great. The location is perfect as it feels like you are deep in the woods, but it is just a stone’s throw from convenient shopping and the state park. As a frequent VRBO renter, I gave some minor suggestions for improvement to the owner to which he was very receptive. We will be back!
