This cabin was very nice, with added bonus of being quite private. The creek behind the cabin and the porch are also great assets.

We had a fabulous time just enjoying the scenery and being with family. Nice to disconnect from our busy lives and just enjoy. Everything was just as expected and more. Great weekend and can’t wait to return hopefully this fall.

Best Outdoors Trip Ever!
Had a great time at this cabin. Cool stream goes right through the property that was stocked with trout and your flanked by mountains on each side of you. Everything about this trip was perfect. We'll definitely be doing it again next year...maybe even twice!

Family weekend
We had a great weekend, the cabin was nice and had all the kitchen utensils needed to prepare meals. Just a note you have to bring your own bedding and towels. You may also request bedding and towels through the hosts for a fee. We had our grandkids with us and our sons and daughter in law, a fun weekend was had by all.

June Get Away
This was a charming cabin. Wish we could have been at the cabin to enjoy it more as we only ended up being there to sleep. We really had a great time out sight seeing as we were able to see a fair amount of elk, lots of birds, and we were able to witness a bear training exercise, where we saw 14 bears. It was an awesome trip.

Elk viewing
We have been coming to Elk County for several years to view the elk and this year we brought our best friends along with us for their first time. They were so excited to see the big bulls and listen to all the bugling!! We had such a relaxing time at the cabin as well! It was perfect! Thanks for great getaway!!

Great place to get away
Myself and 3 friends came to ride dual-sport motorcycles in the mountains. This camp is right on the BDRX route, but we also did a fair bit of just exploring and riding wherever the mountain roads took us. We stayed for 4 nights. This was a perfect place for us to plan our day trips and return to for dinner and to relax. The back porch swings and the sound of the creek in the back were nice. NOTE: You will need to bring your own linens and towels. The tap water did have a bit of a smell so also bring your own drinking water.

Great quick trip
We were only there for 1 1/2 days...but had a great stay! Heard lots of bugling, saw some Elk, not near the cabin had to drive to the lookouts, but also had a bear run across the road in front of us and saw turkeys. Had a small issue that turned out to just be a GFI that needed reset, but I emailed and he was there almost before the email was sent! Appreciated that quick response! Good cabin, good times!

The cabin was smaller than we thought. Could have used lighting over the dining table and curtains on the windows. Other than that, we enjoyed the cabin, good location, easy access to everything.

Perfect
My son graduated from Penn State last weekend and instead of doing the traditional State College experience… we decided fly fishing and a remote getaway is just what the family needed. Our stay was perfect, even though it had rained the entire weekend.. it didn’t stop our fishing/relaxing. We headed into State College for the official graduation and returned afterwards. A weekend earned and time well spent celebrating successes. - Thank you!! - Amy

Great stay at Camp Can't Keep Up!
The cabin is beautiful and had everything I needed. It was warm and clean when I arrived, and there were some Christmas decorations including a small tree in the corner. The wood stove was great to have, and there was plenty of firewood that could be purchased next door at Hicks Run Outfitters. There are other cabins close by, but the location is very peaceful with only the sound of the stream and the occassional vehicle passing by. Highly recommended! Thanks Bryan and Jennifer!

Beautiful location
The property was as advertised. Check in was an hour late because the handyman had car problems and was running behind but he was nice and did a great job cleaning. The dining room was dimly lit which made it difficult to play board or card games. Otherwise, we had a wonderful time. The stream on the property was an added bonus.

No coffee
The cabin was nice and as described. Lots of taxidermy which is ok but they are very dusty lots of cobwebs. The biggest complaint we had was the coffee pot didn’t work and we notified our host but it was never taken care of and it’s about a 10 mile drive each way to get coffee. More lighting in the dining room area would be helpful.

Great camp for hunting season
Pulling up to the cabin the pictures were exactly what they showed. The inside is beautiful with all the great mounts on the wall. It was perfect and comfortable for 5 people. Could fit a couple more and still be fine with the space. It’s in a great location for wildlife viewing and/or hunting. I would definitely say there again.
