About this house rental

Welcome! Camp Critter is situated along the banks of Hicks Run and provides perfect accommodation for anyone who wants to experience the PA Wilds. Whether you are a hunter, fisherman or just want a peaceful getaway, this is the place for you.

The Cabin features a fully equipped kitchen, spacious living area and room to sleep 8. There are two large decks, front and back for relaxing, listening to waters of Hicks run or watching the Elk and Deer that frequently visit the yard. A gas grill is available with propane provided. The yard is roughly 2 acres and provides plenty of space for the kids to run around.

Camp Critter is a 20 minute drive from the Benezette Visitors Center and walking distance from the Hicks Run Viewing Area. The cabin sits on Hicks Run, a stocked trout stream accessible from the back yard. If hunting or hiking is your intent, the cabin is just minutes away from State Gamelands and the Elk State Forest.

Please Note: The owners DO NOT provide Linens or bath towels at Camp Critter. This is due to having no laundry services available.

We had a great time. The cabin was nice, could have been a little more clean, but everything worked perfectly there were plenty of kitchen supplies. The front porch needed the furniture wiped off. There were lots of bugs/insects but I’m assuming that’s because it is summer. The water had the strong odor but you get past it. Bring lots of bottled water because you cannot drink the well water. We would like to return in the fall sometime.

Very good location and accommodations, however the master bed was just a little too stiff for a comfortable sleep, but I get everyone sleep different. Other than that everything was great.

Stayed in cabin that is right off of section 3 not far from the Elk visitor center on the route. Was perfect for doing the route in a few days with a good base camp without all your camping gear on bike and hang out and cook on the fire with your crew at the end of long day with a cold beverage. It was excellent. Only advice, bring drinking water. Good for cleaning and safe to drink just would not recommend it for drinking.

We spent the weekend at Camp Critter and we all loved it! Unfortunately, it rained all weekend, but we made the best of it! The creek at the cabin wasn’t ideal for fishing, but if you travel to the end of the road there’s a great spot on the Sinnemahoning stocked trout. We explored Benezette and saw several elk. The kids liked the visitors center along with the little shops through town. The cabin was perfect for relaxing on the covered porch listening to the rain. It was clean upon arrival and a beautiful cabin. There are close neighbors and some neighborhood activity, but it certainly didn’t bother us at all. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be back in the future, when time allows, for another weekend in Benezette!

Spent the weekend looking for elk sheds, eating, good food, and drinking adult beverages. Very nice property. Well laid out with ample room together and relax. Will definitely come back and stay here in the future. Be sure to bring your own linens, towels and wash clothes, and bottled water to brush her teeth. The master bedroom only has one outlet. So if you wear a CPAP, be sure to bring an extension cord.

Nice and peaceful setting. property could use some minor work. Had to put bathroom door handle back on as it fell off, One bed upstairs is broken. Propped it up to support it. Porch steps are like ice when wet. Water stinks. Recommend bringing own water to drink and cook with. All in all would rent again. Short drive off main road, Elk tracks in yard. Property is semi clean and kitchen is pretty well stocked with anything you need. Really should clean up scrap laying around in back wooded area and old pit.
