Private retreat in the middle of Elk country

Located in Cameron County and situated on 23 acres of private property with beautiful mountain views. Great fishing directly across the road (route 120) from the cabin. We are 2 miles from the Emporium Country Club, perfect for any golf lover! Minutes from Dents Run Elk Viewing Area and only 20 minutes to the town of Benezette home of The Elk Visitor Center. There are plenty of activities including hiking along Fred Wood's Trail, canoeing, kayaking, exploring Sinnemahoning State Park, visit the Sinnemahoning Wild Life Center, Hiking the Quehanna Wilds, explore Kettle Creek State Park, star gazing at Cherry Springs State Park, visit Sizerville State Park and Table Falls! - These activities are minutes from our location and not to mention, 3 restaurants are within minutes of the cabin!

Property was perfect for a quiet retreat. House was clean and well kept. We enjoyed seeing the Elk in Benezette which wasn't too far from the cabin. We were able to enjoy the company of deer from the porch. We would definitely recommend this cabin if your looking for a quiet retreat.

Perfect

I was very impressed with the cleanliness, not only with the cabin itself but all the dishes, pots and pans ; silverware; glasses (I’m very fussy when it comes to cleanliness). We probably spent most of our time sitting on the porch, we loved the privacy. We didn’t want to leave and can’t wait to go back!

Fish Camp 2024

The rental was very accommodating for our annual Old Guys Fishing event. Had everything needed available in nice quiet private setting. We made friends with the local farmer and were given access to fishing from his property. We learned some new streams areas to fish and had a great time.

Repeat visitor

This was our 2nd stay with Michael and Terri. We really enjoy the seclusion we have at their cabin. The cabin is very comfortable and clean. We enjoyed 2 campfires while there and the new firewood system was very convenient. I had to reach out to them while there, Terri was very prompt at helping me ….thank you.

Brown Drake Lodge

Very impressed with the decor, modern kitchen and bathroom. Loved the large wrap around porch. Very quiet and dark. We saw deer that were close by in the yard eating the acorns and also across the way in the strip between the corn fields. We loved our stay. We only saw three Elk on our travels which is ok, because we have been three years in a row. Highly recommend this cabin. Thanks for the wine.

Very Nice stay

A great cabin in the woods & mountains of Cameron county. We had deer visit in the morning and evening. The hosts left us a bottle of local wine, comfortable beds & furnishings ( lightbulbs could be a bit brighter as it was a little tough to read). It is very nice to have a washer & dryer. Wonderful porch to sit on. Road into the cabin is bumpy so make sure you come in a car that can handle an UN paved road. Loved our stay & highly recommend especially during the elk rut season!

Good and not so good.

Great remote location. Tub/shower extremely slippery and certainly a hazard. Lights inside very dim and it took a day to figure out where the kitchen light switches were located. Air condition system was very good. Road needs work. Would be nice if there were actually two spearate bedrooms rather than the one bedroom and another large room that shares two more beds. Another small separate bathroom (no tub/shower needed) would help. Needs a new sofa/bed. Current one is very hard and uncomfortable to sit on. Really nice new gas/wood burner. Great porch to sit on even in bad weather to enjoy the beauty of the area. Well water sufficent flow and good tasting. Faciltiy kept in good condition. Overall, enjoyable.
