About this property

Ricketts Glen Fern View Cabin

Our cabin is a great location to be close to the Ricketts Glen waterfalls and to also relax in the woods. We have a beautiful covered porch to sit and unwind. If you would rather enjoy a nice fire. We have a rustic field stone fire pit.

Cozy cabin

Very nice property and cabin is very well kept. Perfect for 3-4 people. Great location, short drive to Ricketts Glen park and cabin is in a private wooded area. I would highly recommend this cabin to anyone looking to spend some time in nature or anyone looking for a place to stay close to the state parks!

Beautiful Cabin in the Woods

We just loved this house! It looked brand new and was impeccably clean. A lot of thought went into the outside area as well with a giant fire pit, available wood, and lots of chairs. We also enjoyed the spacious porch. Jeff is an excellent host and very responsive.

Peaceful, cozy getaway in the woods

What an amazing little cabin in the woods! Our host was awesome - super friendly and even greeted us when we arrived, which made us feel so welcome. The place was cozy, quiet, and felt so secluded, surrounded by beautiful mountain views. The location couldn’t be better - just a couple minutes from Ricketts Glen State Park, which made it super easy to explore. We loved that there were extra space heaters in each room to keep us warm at night (a huge bonus if you’re visiting in the winter). Watching the snow fall while being snug inside was magical. This spot is perfect for a family getaway or bringing your dogs along. We had such a relaxing time and would totally come back!
