This cabin is located 1 mile from the trail head of Ricketts Glen State Park Falls Trail - home to 22 gorgeous waterfalls. The cabin is also in close proximity to Lake Jean - where you can rent a kayak/canoe, go to the sandy beach of the lake, swim, fish, or ice skate!
The possibilities are endless!!!
This all-wood cabin is rustic yet has all modern amenities - air conditioning, internet, DISH TV, fully stocked kitchen (utensils, place settings, glasses, cooking utensils, pots/pans), indoor gas fireplace, outdoor fire pit and park style charcoal grill. There is also a large deck for outdoor living space! The kitchen was newly remodeled too!!
Come make yourself at home and enjoy your time!

A high chair and pack and play are also available for use.
Linens - Sheets and Towels provided for an additional fee - upon request.
Firewood is not provided but is sold nearby.
Please purchase firewood nearby for the firepit. Due to lantern fly infestations in other parts of PA, we prefer you do not bring firewood from outside the area.

Check-out: 11am
*Check-in/out times may be adjusted with prior approval. If check-out is later than 11am, not previously approved, and affects another reservation part of the security deposit may be withheld.
When staying between Nov - April some snow accumulation should be anticipated in the area. A FWD, AWD, or 4WD vehicle is best for these conditions - as driveways and roadways may have some snow cover.

Falls Trail Winter Closure: As of today 12/6/24 the entire Falls Trail system will be under its annual winter closure due to ice and snow conditions being present. Only visitors who have signed in with the park office and have the required minimum amount of safety equipment (crampons *not micro-spikes*, an ice axe, and rope) are permitted into the trail system at this time. The trail system will be closed until spring when things begin to thaw out, which is usually sometime in March.

The place is great and we had a great time. We did see a mama black bear and 2 cubs in the back yard so be careful. The pictures need to be updated there is new living room, dinning room and desk furniture. It is still very nice furniture.

Noisy road broke immersion. Small bathrooms were a challenge to navigate. Upstairs hot.

The cabin was very cute and clean. The location is perfect if you want to visit Ricketts Glenn for hiking. Only issue was it is much closer to a road than anticipated, so traffic is definitely heard in the mornings. Our wifi did not work and we were unable to find the router to reset as the instruction book said that was left on the counter.
Last, there was a loud vibrating sound that woke us up in the morning

We only had one short night at this cabin and it was not long enough! It's extremely cute and well kept and has everything you need. Plenty of space for multiple people although it was just the two of us and felt perfect. The fire pit is amazing we were out there all night. Extremely close to Ricketts Glen which is why we were there so it was incredibly convenient. We'd love to come back again! Hosts are very communicative and we're very helpful.

The cabin was fine with two exceptions.
The traffic noise was a real problem for us.
Also the kitchen area was just too dark. Some under cabinet lighting could provide an inexpensive and easily installed solution.

Private, quiet, and relaxing. This property was an amazing backdrop for our anniversary. We were able to relax by the fire, have access to amazing food options, and hike at nearby Ricketts Glen State Park. All the amenities made it easy to get comfortable and the availability of firewood was extremely convenient, especially since it rained while we were there. Would definitely stay here again, even if it's just for a small getaway from everyday life.

This cabin was the perfect getaway spot. Quiet, comfortable, well equipped and in a gorgeous location we couldn’t have asked for more. If you’re looking to escape this is a fantastic place to do so.

**Beware of Hidden Charges and Unreliable Amenities**
We recently stayed at this cabin for one night, and our experience was marred by some concerning issues. The host attempted to charge us extra for cleaning and pushed a firewood package that turned out to be unusable due to excessive moisture. After departing, we received a message indicating an additional $115 charge for cleaning and unused firewood. This dishonest approach leaves us wary and disappointed, and we advise future guests to stay vigilant about potential hidden fees and questionable amenities.

This is a lovely bucolic setting close to Rickett’s Glen, which is absolutely one of Pennsylvania’s national treasures. The cabin is lovely, cozy and well-maintained.

Our trip and stay was fantastic! This house is great, exactly as advertised.
Really nice up-to-date kitchen, spacious sleeping arrangements, and lovely porches. I communicated with the host because we had some very heavy rain while we were there and they responded quickly and helpfully.
We had small children with us and it was very easy to baby-proof with a small baby fence we brought- made our stay safe and fun for all! We brought most of our baby gear but there was a pack-n-play and highchair at the house- super thoughtful!
We had fun hiking the falls, playing at the lake beach, and stopping at wineries despite the rain. Excellent, will return! Thank you!

The cabin was not well cleaned especially floors. Linens and towels are for rent feels being nickled and dimed. Not well sound proofed and near major road. Beds uncomfortable and noisy.

We had a wonderful stay. Cabin was well equipped with everything we needed plus a few extras we were not expecting.
Close to Ricketts Glen State Park and The Falls Trail. Also close to Grocery stores and eateries.
Only complaint was highway noise (Route 118) but by the end of the week we barely heard it.
Hope to return soon.
