We were not there fifteen minutes when heard a bugle and saw a bull The setting of the cabin is beatiful. Cabin is comfortable and we quiet nights sleep. The fire pit is to die for. We will certainly seek a return visit if the opprotunity should arise.

This place is fantastic!A quiet little cabin, by a stream, with a nice yard, surrounded by woods and one friendly neighbor. The house was very clean, comfortable, and full of everything we needed. We came, hoping to see elk, and WOW did we! Within an hour of being there we heard several bugling and one came and circled the entire yard. The second day, we were so lucky to have 14 elk come in the yard and stay for 3 and a half hours! It was an amazing experience that I will never forget!

Nicole was great about answering any questions we had. Loved the cabin and outdoor space. Very clean & comfortable. It's in a beautiful area. Would stay here again. We were here looking to view the Elk and were not disappointed as we saw them both days just down the road from where we were.

We loved the location, it was perfect. I wish we had a few more days though. A large bull elk came right into the yard and started bugling. I got a few pictures and some video of him crossing the stream and heading up the hill. He had to be only 50 feet or so away. This all happened as we were getting ready to leave today.

We had a great stay in this cute A-frame cabin. We visited Benezette for elk-viewing, and the location was perfect. We even saw elk right up the road! The property was exsctly as described, with a lot of little extras available. The outside space was so refreshing! Communication was quick and clear, and check in and check out took place as described. We will return!

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!!

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.
