About this property

Entire place

Secluded Nature Escape w/ Firepit Under the Stars! Family and Friends Reconnect!

Hickory Creek Haven-Creekside wooded atmosphere! 7 beds- Sleeps 10. HCH will help you and your family rest and reset. Or you can put on your boots and head into the Allegheny National Forest for a hike! From nearby adventures on Allegheny River or Tionesta Lake to relaxing nights by our campfire pit, Hickory Creek Haven has it all!

Enjoy coffee on the porch rockers as you take in the forest sounds. Go on a creek walk or fish right there during trout season. Make marshmallow memories by the creek-side fire pit. Grill out in the backyard or enjoy the remodeled kitchen with all the comforts of home. Watch a movie or play ping-pong in the spacious living room. This cabin has a calming, relaxed, yet rustic vibe from the minute you step onto the property!
The space
Enter the porch door past the rocking chairs into the spacious kitchen. You'll have all of the kitchen amenities you will need to make meals special. The dining table and smaller table seat 10 to accommodate game nights! Large tv is in the living room with over 30 family games. There is Wi-Fi but you could always pretend like there isn’t and really disconnect!

The first-floor bedroom is connected to the living room. There is a full-sized bed and one twin bed in the first-floor bedroom to accommodate people that need to avoid steps. This room has a floor fan but does not have air conditioning unit.

A spiral staircase leads to two rustic yet cozy bedrooms. There is a full futon bed and two twin beds in one room. No air in this bedroom, but there is a ceiling fan and window fan. There is one queen bed and one twin bed in the second upstairs bedroom. Complete with a window air conditioner. A pack and play with sheet is available.

Outside you'll love the relaxing flowing creek (Little Hickory Run) as it trickles by. There is a road above the creek but it's not busy or a distraction.

Take a walk in the woods on a path or follow the creek. Enjoy the tall pines all year and the changing leaves surrounding the cabin in the fall. Kids and dogs spend all day in the creek exploring or looking for fossils, salamanders and crayfish. You don't really ever need to leave the property to have a wonderful vacation!

Book "Hickory Creek Haven" now and you'll be booking next year's trip before you leave!

This is one of if not the nicest places I've stayed at. It was clean, had clean bedding, and had great heating/cooling. The host was very kind and made themselves available to answer any questions I had. The cherry on to was how peaceful the cabin is. This is the perfect place for one to get away from the daily grind. You can just disconnect and listen to the babbling brook with a nice fire. Will definitely be recommended this to friend and family looking for a great getaway. The cabin is located just a hour or so away for lake Erie and there are many local activities to enjoy as well.

This cabin is so cozy and beautiful. There’s so many thoughtful touches throughout the home, even a little basket when you first walk in with some fun camp essentials for you and your pups. Crates as well! Plenty of fun things to do and some art supplies if you feel like getting creative. The location really is the cherry on top. The little creek that runs alongside it is gorgeous and we all loved the scenery. Beth is a wonderful host that is on top of any questions or concerns you may have. This place is highly recommend for a secluded nature escape.

Awesome Cozy Cabin

Loved our stay here for a weekend away. The cabin was clean, well stocked, and had a ton of the extras that made our stay very enjoyable... including a super cozy dog bed that my pup spend quite a few hours snoring in. Would definitely visit again.

We had days of great memory making. As a mother with adult children, it was amazing to spend time with them doing so many things we did when they were growing up. Time in the creek, hikes, picking wildflowers, bad mitton, board games, fires w/ smores and meals together. Thank you for providing the perfect setting for us all.
