Always a treat to stay here. I think this was our 7th time staying at this beautiful cabin so that says a lot! It is perfect for kayaking, hiking, or just reading a book on rainy days. We will definitely return next year. Thanks Hal.

Great Getaway

We were VERY pleased with our stay. Hal is a fantastic host and responded quickly when we had an issue with the tv. One note...if you stay during the week, be sure to call places to see if they are open before making the drive. We found some places closed - despite Google saying they were open.

Cabin is absolutely gorgeous! Very well stocked with all the necessities that we needed. Very private and so peaceful! Took games in case of a “rain day” but found the cabin had the exact games that I packed (Sequence , Phase 10, and a deck of cards). The hot water in the cabin was better than mine at home! The driveway was a little bit scary….but not a problem at all! Probably a different story in snow. The owner was very informative and quick on responses. I highly recommend and would return again! Thank you for a wonderful long weekend!

Perfect weekend getaway!

We absolutely loved this cabin! Everything was perfect and accommodating. My teen son loved close access to the river and we enjoyed kayaking, canoeing, hiking, and just spending time at the fire as a family. Hal was responsive in answering my questions and a great host!

Birthday weekend

We rented the cabin to celebrate my husband’s 40th birthday. He grew up canoeing and fishing near there. It was a great weekend. Cabin was very nice and clean with great location. It was nice being close to the places where he wanted to canoe and fish. Family really enjoyed the trip and we got to bring the dog along which was great.

Nice long weekend at the cabin.

Our family had a great get away weekend at this cabin. We did however not factor in that it was hunting season. Hunters were all around us so we limited our outdoor activities. It's a beautiful property. We really enjoyed walking along the river. Hal was great and we are looking forward to visiting again.

Epitome of a Quiet Weekend Getaway

We had the BEST weekend at the Arroyo Cabin! The location was perfect: Quiet (except for the soothing sound of the river), beautiful and not too far from town to make a trip in if needed. The cabin itself exceeded our expectations. I cannot think of one thing that would have made the cabin better-- it was clean, well appointed, in perfect condition and very well equipped. It is a beautiful cabin, and we felt totally at home. The owners truly have thought of everything to make the time spent there comfortable and great. I would highly recommend this cabin for a couple or two, a family or even just one person looking for some solitude and time spent in a most beautiful natural setting

About the host

Hosted by Hal Beimel

Host profile image
The cabin was built in 2017 with the help of many friends and family.

Why they chose this property

Location is perfect. You can walk your kayak down to the river from the cabin or it's only approximately 200 yards upstream to the Arryoyo Canoe Launch. This is THE BEST stretch of the Clarion River for fishing and paddling. The XYZ Rapids are just downstream from the cabin!
