Perfect little cabin for a weekend retreat
I booked this place for my wife, 2 year old daughter, beagle, and myself for a weekend as we explored the cook forest area. It was perfect for us. Hot water, heat, privacy, a nice covered porch, fire pit, and comfy beds. And it's not just the physical things, but the customer service that make this place extra special. Brittany was in contact to make sure we were alright, and also left bags to clean up after our dog, a water dish, and a toy stuffed animal that my daughter took home with us. We will be back in the near future.

Nice getaway
The cabin/tiny house was very cozy and clean. The owner Brittany was very nice and helpful. We had a great time visiting the kinzua bridge and hiking a couple of the trails in the area. We also had our two dogs there and they also agree with my opinion. We would recommend and revisit. Thank you.

Impromptu Birthday Surprise Success
I decided VERY last second that I was going to surprise my son with a little adventure (less than 72 hours before arrival). Upon booking I contacted the host letting them know and asking if they could get a birthday balloon and leave it in the cabin. ABOVE AND BEYOND, the cabin was decorated, they even got him a cake and candles. The absolute best host. The cabin was immaculate, the beds beyond comfortable. Pet and kid friendly. I couldnt recommend this spot more. Its not often you find such hospitality anymore. 10/10 suggest booking, bring your family, enjoy nature- its also a great location to access Cooks Forest and Allegheny National.

It was exactly what we needed just to get away from Erie for a little while. it was clean. Plenty of hot water. Comfortable air conditioning. amazingly comfortable mattresses. We could not hear the Sawmill inside and even outside it sounded like a neighbor doing some work three blocks away you really can't hear it. People in the area are amazingly friendly and helpful. I'm not exaggerating when I tell you just those few short days we're so relaxing that we are starting to look for property around that area too build a cabin and move to

Small issue with shower faucet on our last night there & they came & fixed it right away. Communication for address & code plenty of time for our arrival. Thanked us for staying & apologetic for inconvenience of shower issue which was minor to us!!!

Lack of Communication
The day of check-in I messaged the host, Brittany, twice before check-in via vrbo asking her when to expect the door code and other information. She did not respond to either message. The check-in time, 3:00pm, rolled around and still no word from her. I tried to call the number she listed and it went to voicemail every single time. It was getting dark and we felt unsafe in the area. After hours of no communication from the host, we went home. It wasn’t until we made it home that we heard from Brittany, over six hours after the posted check-in time. It was an automated message with the check-in information and absolutely no acknowledgement or apology for sending the information so late. I tried requesting a refund from the host with no success. It has now been over a week without a response or a refund.

It’s a converted shed
We didn’t actually stay at the property. Thankfully! The location was terrible, behind two dumpy looking houses off a two lane highway. The sawmill mentioned is literally right behind the shed/shack. The day we arrived there was mud and water all around the property and I cemented driveway. Upon getting to the door, the code didn’t work and there was a stream of water flowing out from under the front door (a very worn wooden door). The only way to contact the owner was via email. She responded right away and arrived to the property within 15 min. To discover a pipe in the bathroom had burst and water was running out of the “cabin”. She offered us the next “nice” cabin next door for the night while they cleaned up the waterlogged shed, “then we could move into it” since it was what we reserved. While we appreciated the offer, there was no way we were going to stay. We declined and had yo go search for other accommodations at 5:00 pm on Thanksgiving eve. Fortunately we found an actual cabin IN Cook’s Forest that had a vacancy. VRBO responded promptly to our distress and the owner contacted us to let us know she was processing a full refund. The cuteness in the picture of the VRBO doesn’t really depict what the reality was that day. The location was about 10+ miles to Cook’s Forest. We thought it would be within walking distance. The owner was gracious and tried to be helpful. We won’t consider that property in the future.

Great Weekend
The property is blissfully quiet, clean, and maintained very well. The host has provided everything you would possibly need, besides of course personal items. Kitchenware was great, and I'm considering ordering that set of pans for myself. Bring groceries, spices, and things like that, everything else is there. The entire cabin was clean and well organized. The bathroom had a great shower, with a tankless water heater. Water pressure was great. Towels were clean and comfy. The bed was comfortable, and the linens were soft and also comfortable. Overall, great place to be in between venturing out on trails. Absolutely would stay again.

Such a cute Cabin. Has everything you might need while staying for a couple nights. Very clean! I was surprised at how close we were to other houses and businesses, there is also a busy road close by. Wasn’t a problem but from the pictures I wasn’t expecting it. Would definitely stay here again for just a night or two.

Thoughts of our stay
Myself, my boyfriend and my 2 11 year olds had a wonderful stay at the cabin. My boyfriend did have to fix a few things in the cabin and we had to wash the pans before we can use them. Other then that we had a wonderful stay!!!! It was the perfect weather and perfect area to be and the kids had a blast!!
