We encourage all of our guests to purchase travel insurance for unforeseen circumstances and cancellations. Ricketts Glen Falls Trail Update: On SATURDAY 3/21/26 the lower portion of the Falls Trail was opened to regular hiking for the year. It will be open from PA Route 118 up to Waters Meet. A total of 3 waterfalls are visible on this section, 4 if you include Adams Falls just south of 118. The upper loop of the Falls Trail system (everything above Waters Meet) will remain closed for another couple of weeks while ice continues to melt and staff can gain access to clear out more heavily iced areas. To access the upper portion of the trail system ice hikers still need to sign in with the park office and have the required minimum safety equipment of: Crampons (not micro-spikes), an ice axe, and rope for every individual entering. This message will be updated again as soon as the status of the upper portion of the trail changes.

We were here over Thanksgiving and had a wonderful stay! The cabin is great - spacious but cozy, comfortable, with a good kitchen (we were able to cook a full Thanksgiving dinner for four there) and a lovely location. The host is very helpful (bonus: she left us a delicious Thanksgiving pie) and everything was clean and in good order.It goes without saying that the proximity to Ricketts Glen is a plus (the south end of Falls trail is 5 mins, north end about 10 mins) and I actually took a 8-mile run along the dirt road in the well-wooded area that the cabin is in. But we found ourselves enjoying the time in the cabin just as much as the outdoor attractions.

We really enjoyed our stay, they had almost everything. We had some leftovers and there wasnt anything to put it in or wrap it with like saran wrap or a baggie or tin foil and we looked for a lighter for a fire but found a small book of matches. We LOVED the cute little coffee bar that was set up. Everything was clean and tidy and comfortable and close to Ricketts Glen State Park.
