Nice and cosy cabin
A nice cabin and we plan to return. We appreciated the outdoor fire pit, really nice kitchen, wooden interior and reliable internet. The park is a short drive away. It is a bit wet this time of year so we hope to come back and visit the trails in the summer. The cabin is on a road so there is the occasional sound of a car or truck.

Second time just as good as 1st
This was our second time staying this cozy cabin in the woods. It was just as wonderful as the first only this time we felt more like home since we were familiar with the property. The bedroom is a good size, kitchen is wonderful to cook in. The living room and open area is very comfortable. We look forward to coming to this cabin each year, our home away from home to unwind and relax. We were finally able to experience some of the waterfalls at Ricketts glenn. We look forward to returning again in the future. A+

About the host

Hosted by Brian and Stephanie

Host profile image
Brian O'Keefe owns Mooretown Sawmill and Mooretown Timbers and Beams, LLC as well as several rental properties in the local mountain area. Born and raised in Mooretown, Brian had a dream of carving out the land and creating a successful sawmill.

His dream became a reality in 1987. Mooretown Mill is located in the beautiful mountains of Northeast Pa. near the unforgettable Rickett's Glen State Park. Here at Mooretown, we use local timber to produce a quality product. In 2015, we started our timber frame company.

That same product and craftsmanship can be found in this cozy cabin and in all of Brian's rental properties producing a beautiful rustic feel. He takes great pride in the quality of his work and enjoys sharing that with others.

All of our renters will tell you that we will go out of our way to ensure your stay is unforgettable.

In his spare time (if any) he enjoys jaunts on his KTM motorcycle, and is an active member in many organizations dealing with educating the youth of PA in the logging industry; his passion and joy.
