About this property

Family Friendly Waterfront Log Cabin on on the Wild & Scenic Clarion River

Beautiful Riverfront Log Cabin built in 2021. Bike, Hike, Fish Hunt, Swim, Peddle, Paddle or just relax in this Family Friendly Cabin! This is the PERFECT location for all your year round adventures in the PA Wilds! The cabin is situated DIRECTLY on the Wild and Scenic Clarion River in Elk County PA, approximately 1/2 mile downstream from the Irwin Boat Launch. Lots of options for River Adventures! RV hookup for Electric and Water. Every season is wonderful. My favorite float is to put in at the Arroyo boat launch and float right to the cabin! Enjoy beautiful views of the River from the wrap around deck. Great indoor and outdoor space to enjoy the beauty of the Allegheny National Forest and State Game Lands surrounding you. Cook Forest, Farmers Inn, Historic Ridgway, Benezette Elk Herd, the Elk Country Visitors Center, Straub Brewery and Kinzua bridge are all nearby. Linens and towels included. We have another cabin approximately 3 miles upstream, (The Arroyo Cabin), https://www.vrbo.com/1215401.

Cabin was even better than the pictures! So peaceful and relaxing. Everything we needed was already there aside from food and our personal items. Clean and tidy at our arrival. The river was beautiful and shallow enough cabin side for kids to safely play and catch critters. My son caught a very nice small mouth bass right in front of the cabin. The owner was great, and quickly responded to any questions. He was super helpful and extremely friendly. We did an amazing kayak trip up river and were able to float right down to the cabin. We are already planning a second trip! Honestly one of our best vacations to date.

Fabulous River View Cabin

This was our 2nd time staying in this cabin in early January the last couple of years. My wife and I as well as some friends will be back again next year. The ladies are already planning the trip. This cabin is absolutely beautiful and comfortable for our group. The addition of the shuffleboard table was a nice touch. I would recommend this cabin to anyone wanting to stay in a beautiful cabin right on the Clarion River.

Slab camp fishing club

Beautiful cabin on the river. Unfortunately the weather gods didn’t help out. Power was knocked out 2 different times during our stay, we made the best of it with candles and bbq grill. Would stay there again and hope for better weather.

Perfect cabin directly on the river.

Spent 8 glorious days at this cabin in late April and early May. It was even more than what we expected. Very clean, nice furnishings and a very well stocked kitchen. The multiple options for outside seating was also a plus. Saw multiple Eagles, ducks, deer and birds right in the back yard during our stay. We really enjoyed the fire pit next to the river too. It was a great family getaway and we hope to visit again someday.

Annual V action in the Mountains

The property was well appointed, location on the river was a real plus, wish we had access to a washer and dryer, the kids loved the loft, quiet during the week a little noisy with quads on the weekend. All in all a great time was had by all. Thanks

Overall, nice cabin for a weekend getaway! Hal was responsive and accommodating. The cabin itself was beautiful and welcoming. Only suggestion for property owner would be to maintenance the grill, and for renters to bring paper products. Thank you!

Great spot, beautiful view and cabin has beautiful craftsmanship.

Right next to the river multiple spots to relax and disconnect from life’s stress. If you wanted to reconnect the internet is a little tricky. Signal sometimes drops out and does not reconnect for hours. All in all great trip will be planning another in the future with family.

Beautiful location

This was a family vacation with 6 adults and 1 15-month-old and our assorted dogs. The location of the house was perfect for swimming, tubing and kayaking. We also visited the Straub Brewery for a tour and lunch, hiked the Beartown Rocks Trail, biked the Clarion-Little Toby Trail, tried unsuccessfully to see elk, visited the Family Inn and the Diamond Deer ranch. We would recommend all of these activities and this rental to anyone who enjoys the outdoors. We also found some time to relax on the deck with a beautiful view and have a campfire. We appreciated being able to bring our dogs with us and would highly recommend this rental!

Beautiful cabin and spectacular view !

Cabin and location were absolutely beautiful! Cabin was as pictured on the website! The view is breathtaking! Peaceful and quiet, just like we wanted ! Kitchen was supplied with all the basics, bathrooms were clean and the outdoor seating was set up and available for use. We enjoyed our stay and plan to return at some point! There were issues with internet but the owner was responsive and tried his best to resolve the issue. The check out was scheduled for 11 am, however someone that works for the owner came at 10:20 checking if we are still there. We found it a bit pushy and annoying but there was no other concerns. I would recommend to anyone who’s looking for a peaceful getaway.

Great R & R

The house is too beautiful as you spend most of your time outside doing things and not enjoying it. Even on the rainy days we spent our time outside on the porches. The porches are so big that we had corn hole set up on the side porch and still had room to eat and play games on the other part. Also we spent a lot of time in the huge shelter by the fire pit. We had a fire every night except when it rained. It is so convenient to be able to put your kayak in and not have to transport it elsewhere. The only problem we had was getting the code to get in as we had no cell phone service there. I can't wait to return.

Great way to reconnect family

The property was exactly as pictured but even more beautiful and was very clean. This was a different kind of trip for us--we packed food to have every meal on location and just spent lots of time together--yet still had enough room at the location for time to ourselves as well. We at dinner outside and had a campfire every night. The time with family in nature will certainly be remembered for years to come (and too many activities to list here). We would definitely come back! A few side notes for those that consider renting: keep in mind that you only get 1 towel & washcloth per guest regardless of length of stay + 1 hand towel per bathroom, so if you prefer more you need to bring more. Also, if you don't prefer a flat pillow you'll need to bring your own. Wifi signal was much better than expected and same with the TV channels offered (we only used it when we needed down time).

Its right along the river. We float from the boat launch to the cabin. The kids spend hours in the river throughout the day. Enjoy camp fires at night.
