About this house rental
Spring View Lodge has a little bit for everyone. No matter your reason for visiting the area, we are sure our lodge will be the perfect place for your stay. Whether you are visiting the area to hunt, fish, hike, bike, view the elk, or relax in the great outdoors, Spring View provides easy access to it all. Firewood is almost always available in the outdoor fire pit or inside the wood burner.
Our location is our greatest asset. Just a few miles from Benezette, the lodge is situated on the top of a mountain in the heart of the PA elk range. We boast spectacular views and a quiet country setting. Located on 1 acre of land, the property has plenty of room to enjoy. The elk often grace us with their presence, as seen in some of our photos.
Public land hunting, fishing in native and stocked trout streams, hiking, biking, ATV riding, wineries, and elk viewing are just a few activities visitors enjoy. Spring View Lodge is in Jay Township, which has opened its township roads to ATVs. Bring your ATV or side-by-side and ride miles from the cabin (Check Jay Township ATV riding rules for details).
Situated just to the West of Benezette, the lodge is conveniently located in a rural setting with roads maintained year round with easy access. Spring View Lodge is one of few vacation rentals in the area where you can take a short drive to the Elk Viewing Center or Saint Mary’s for shopping, sightseeing, or a nice meal. We are also just minutes from thousands of acres of easily accessible public land.
The Lodge has everything you need (see our list of amenities) for a short or extended stay and is accessible year-round. We've done our best to provide our guests with all the luxuries of home while keeping the rustic theme. We're sure you will enjoy the Amish-built furniture and knotty pine interior. The kitchen is complete with a stove, microwave, and full-size refrigerator. The lodge has all the pots, pans, glasses, mugs, dishes, and silverware you need. We even provide linens and towels so you can pack a little lighter. With three bedrooms, two full baths, and two queen-size sleeper sofas, we can easily accommodate groups of up to 8.
Feel free to contact us if you have any questions about the lodge or the area. We look forward to seeing you on your next trip to the PA Wilds!
Regarding recent concerns surrounding the CoronaVirus, cleanliness is our highest priority. We ask that our guests perform basic tasks upon check out, as outlined in the rental agreement. We employ a cleaning service; our cabins are cleaned and disinfected thoroughly after each guest checkout. Additionally, we make available various disinfecting products for our guests to use, free of charge. These supplies include disinfecting wipes, disinfecting spray, and hand sanitizers. Other supplies that are always available include toilet paper, paper towels, hand soap, dish soap, and a variety of general cleaning supplies. Please do not hesitate to ask if you have any specific questions or concerns

Accommodations were great. A very central location to see the elk and go to restaurants for dinner. We even got to hear the elk bugle. Very cool. We would recommend staying at this lodge.

Quaint property, was very comfortable for our group of 6 adults. Due to weather we were only able to use the fire pit once. One of the best stocked kitchens I've ever had at a vrbo. Was an enjoyable trip overall.

Unfortunately we had a problem with the code to open the door. There was no phone number that was listed to contact directly. Luckily my daughter works for VRBO and was able to get us a phone number which I called and was able to connect with Emanuel. After that the problem was resolved. The place was excellent but unfortunately we did not see any Elk :(. I would highly recommend this place.

What an amazing and beautiful house. The location was perfect. It was off the beaten path but you were still in the middle of things. We were 20 mins from Benezette and 15 mins from St. Mary. We saw 1 elk across the street in the evening along with about 8 deer. There were also prints in the yard so you know they are close. We did not see many elk but we still found many things to do and see. This was our 1st time using VRBO and we could not have ask for a better experience.

House is in a quiet area, we stayed 3 nights. It was exactly what the description said it was. Fully stocked with pots, pans, utensils, dishes and some unexpected extras which was nice. Fairly centralized location for wineries, elk viewing, shopping, etc. We always overpack because you never know what your going to get, so we were pleasantly surprised with Spring View Lodge. 2 bedrooms with queen beds, bathroom, sitting/tv viewing area and bar downstairs. Master bedroom with bath, laundry, kitchen, and living room upstairs. Plenty of room for our group of 4. I highly recommend. Owner very responsive.

Upon entering the property all we could say was WOW!!! Very well appointed, clean and comfortable. Lovely view off the front porch. Close proximity to all Elk Country has to offer, really appreciated the fact that it is between Benzette and St. Mary's, so we didn't have a far drive to any attraction. The owners are very responsive to communication and are great to work with. Will rent from these owners again!

We stayed the last weekend of September into October and this cozy home was perfect. The location of the property was easy to find, yet off the highway enough that you felt away from the hustle and bustle of traffic. The road was quiet and the view across was beautiful. The layout of the house gives the place a lot of character; a must see! We used the wood stove in the living room and it kept us warm the entire time of our stay. Downtown Benezette is just a short drive away, and you see lots of scenery on the drive to and from. The owners are wonderful to work with and we will definitely be staying in one of their lodges again next year!

The accommodations were perfect and the location put us right in the middle of everything we wanted to do. Being so close to Benezette and also Saint Mary’s, we were able to go check out the viewing center and also to Saint Mary’s for a nice dinner. The Lodge was clean, quiet and well maintained and the owners are very nice to work with. Everything we needed was included. The view from the front porch is picture perfect although it was too cold outside to enjoy it for very long. Highly recommend.

The lodge is gorgeous. Great location. Everything was perfect, especially all the wild life we saw right in our back yard. Went there wanting to see Elk. As soon as we arrived, two majestic bull elk graced us with their beauty. Shortly after they moved on, a family of deer and a flock of wild turkey paraded by. More than we ever expected! Definitely a place to visit! We will definitely be coming back to Spring Run Lodge!

We loved the rental. The main floor is layed out a little strange, but it worked fine for us. Rental was in a great location. We saw deer at rental each day/night. Clean and comfortable.

We've visited this area many times, but it was our first stay at Spring View Lodge. The couches and beds were very comfortable, and rooms were tastefullly decorated. The views were spectacular. We saw one deer in the backyard, but during our trip, we also saw other deer, about 30 elk, turkeys, a black squirrel, and amazing fall foliage. We cooked the majority of our meals there but did get takeout from the Benezette Hotel once. The brisket was awesome. It was the perfect first getaway after being stuck at home during the pandemic for so long.

We stayed at Spring View Lodge on 8/25/17. The Lodge wasn’t yet available for renting but we contacted the owners anyway as we had a little league baseball game not 15 minutes away from its location. The owners were reluctant to rent it as it wasn’t quite ready but after some pleading they agreed, cautioning us that they were still a week away from having final touches applied.
Well… It was great. Our only regret is that we could stay just one night. We will be back. The view was breathtaking, the back porch was great for morning and evening relaxation. It had all the amenities we could have wanted. Satellite TV and High-Speed internet were available. Linens and towels were provided. The kitchen was complete with nearly everything we have in our kitchen at home. The bedrooms were cozy and the surroundings were peaceful. We didn’t have time to enjoy the big back yard or the fire ring but will be sure to next time.
Thanks again for opening up for guests earlier than you were prepared to.

We had a great time at Spring View Lodge. It was clean and was equipped with anything you would need. The evening was warm enough to sit out on the screen in porch and play cards. We cooked over the fire pit and got a couple of corn hole games in before Leavin. We are only 20 mins from Benezett which we got some great pictures of the Elk. It was a very nice place and we definitely plan on renting it again. Thank you Seth for making our trip wonderful.

Spring Hill Lodge served as a great place for us to relax while visiting the area to see the elk. The kitchen is well equipped, the rustic furniture is comfortable and helps to create a cozy, get-away-from-it-all feel. We had great fall weather so the screened in porch was a special place to enjoy a morning cup of coffee and a campfire under the beautiful night sky was the perfect way to end the day.
Owners are helpful and extremely responsive and have done a great job with Spring Hill Lodge.

A lovely property far enough from everything, yet a short drive to a Walmart. The home was quite clean and overlooks a valley where you can watch the sun rise. It has all basic amenities. Showers, not tubs, pretty good Wi-fi and a TV (though not a smart TV, so no signing into your accounts). If you like music, you'll have to bring your own speaker since currently there is no speaker there you can hook up to through your phone. However what's important is that everything else was idea for a peaceful getaway. Make a nice fire, and just relax. I would absolutely rent this place again.
