About this property

Seven Springs Cabin - Fox Tail Chalet - Authentic, Pet Friendly Log Cabin Chalet

Our Fox Tail Chalet cabin near Seven Springs and Hidden Valley Resorts sleeps up to 7 persons and has 2 full bathrooms. This rustic log cabin chalet has one master bedroom with queen-sized bed, two lofts and a sleeper sofa in the living area. One loft has 3 twin beds and the second loft has one full-sized bed. The second loft can also accommodate a full or queen sized air mattress if necessary. Fox Tail Chalet has a full kitchen stocked with pots, pans, plates, silverware and cookware. Just bring your groceries or have us pick some up for you prior to your stay!

This Chalet is located just 6 miles from both Seven Springs Mountain Resort and Hidden Valley Ski Areas. Why stay in a stuffy condo when you could experience a real-life mountain log cabin stay while visiting any of the area's attractions. Enjoy clean, crisp mountain air, spacious cabins secluded away from the hustle and bustle of the mountain. The Fox Tail Chalet is perfect for a couple's getaway or family ski vacation.

Fireplaces! We have a real wood-burning fireplace fully stocked with firewood for your stay. Jack Claycomb was a master mason and hand built our massive fireplace to be the center focal point of the Fox Tail mountain chalet.

Authentic Mountain Chalet - Fox Tail is an authentic mountain cabin, not a condo dressed up to look like a cabin. The Fox Tail chalet was built entirely out of locally-sourced timber that feature massive log beams and rough-cut interior. You will not find one ounce of drywall in this all-wood log home. The logs still have the bark on them!

Pet Friendly - We are pet lovers! We welcome most breeds of dogs, a rarity here in the Laurel Highlands. We do have a few breed restrictions however since there are multiple cabins situated on our property.

Wildlife and Bird Watching - Fox Tail Chalet has a large bird feeder on the back wooden deck that attracts all sorts of birds from Blue-Jays, Cardinals, Woodpeckers and a variety of Finches. Deer plots are set up near the cabin that attract White-Tail Deer as well as squirrels and an occasional grey fox or two.

Very great communication with hosts prior to stay, cute and quaint little cabin chalet just as described. Fully supplied kitchen made for meal prep pretty easy. Bring groceries bc the area has limited options nearby. We knew this ahead of time and probably saved us time and money.

Nice rustic comfortable cabin

This cabin was nicer than pics show on site . Downstairs bedroom was very comfortable and has own bathroom . Additionally there are two lofts one with a double bed and the other loft with three singles . Additional bathroom and shower makes it easy to have five people in one space .. We were impressed by the generous amount of split wood and made a fire each night . This property feels rustic and removed but has the safety of other cabins on property .. we all enjoyed our time here .

Relaxing Getaway

What a beautiful property! We’ve stayed in many cabins, and this Foxtail Chalet was great! Very clean, cozy and comfortable! We’d like to return in the winter as it was a bit warm. I’m sure it is especially cozy in the winter months.

Mid August Stay

The property is located in the heart of the Laurel Highlands. This is a great location for exploring the area. The property was clean and quiet. Our Japanese Spitz loved being able to walk out the back door to do her business.

Great house. Super clean and cozy.

We had a great time staying at this home. Very clean and great location between Hidden Valley and 7 springs. Huge lot, great fireplace and a ton of dry wood.. We had a couple small issues when we got there with the connection to internet but the owner Dave was all over it and went out of his way to make sure we were taken care of. A big thank you to him for being so responsive and making sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely go back..

Made the best of it

We arrived only to have the property manager tell us he did not have our reservation! We had a confirmation number and confirmed booking. He said there was a mix up with the booking. He offered us an apartment under the cabin we were supposed to have because someone had booked our cabin after we did. It was okay. The yard had alot of worn out things and trashy. The inside was okay but all the furniture was worn out and old. When you sat on the couch you would sink to the floor! The fireplace was in the driveway and the road was only a few hundred yards away so the car noise was disturbing. the bedroom decorations were axes, awes, knives and other weird stuff. We appreciated him accommodating us however not sure what happened. We even communicated before the arrival and he still did not pick up that he did not have our reservation. He did refund part of the rental fees.

Absolutely, loved it!

Julie/Dave are awesome people! This property worked out great for a guys night on friday, and a night with my special lady on Saturday! Linens, towels, paper towels, tp, and garbage bags all provided. The charcoal grill worked out too. This is a well decorated legit cabin on the inside. The backyard has some serious space for yard games. This was great for a summer weekend, and imagine it's awesome for a ski weekend. Sarnelli's market is super close if ya need something in a pinch. Also, keg brewery is 0.5 miles up the road.

Very happy with stay.

The photos on-line do not do these properties justice. I was met by the owner upon arrival. Very nice and helpful people. The kitchen was well equipped with everything anyone would need, and both bathrooms were nicely sized full baths. Not only was the cabin clean and well kept, the property overall was well maintained. If you are looking for a rustic feel well all the amenities, this is a great property for your stay.

charming but could use some updates

We loved the property, off the road, easy to get to Seven Springs. All the amenities you could ask for. Just some helpful notes to the owner would be to repair the vertical blinds. We did not have complete privacy near the sliding glass door. Update the leather ottoman (ripped and torn), clean and dust the wall and floor heaters (dust visible). One of the lights in the high beam ceiling was out, dim at nght. We appreciated all the wood available to burn. Overall cozy and charming.

An incredible weekend

Dear prospective visitors, Recently, I hosted a party at this cabin in Seven Springs for my brother's Bachelor Party. Upon our arrival, Dave (the owner) treated us with kindness and welcomed us in. He provided a tour, kept the cabin stocked with plenty of wood, and ensured that everything we needed was accounted for. We were extremely pleased when we walked through the door. The layout was rustic, yet had a modern touch. Our party consisted of 8 big fellas and we were able to sleep all of us comfortably. Our weekend was full of laughter, great food, plenty of drinks, and unforgettable memories. My brother couldn't have been happier and nor could I. I encourage anyone looking for a nice getaway to contact Dave and inquire about this property. Regards, Nate

About the host

Hosted by Julie Claycomb

Host profile image
Owners Jack and Julie inherited the property known as Claycomb Chalets from their late father whom built the Chalet cabins in the early 1980's. Jack Sr., their father was an avid skier and outdoors-man who loved the Laurel Highlands and decided to retire here and build his mountain chalets for everyone to enjoy while visiting the Laurel Highlands.

Today Jack and Julie maintain residence at the property and Julie manages the day-to-day operations of the mountain retreat. They feel being on-site offers their guests a sense of trust knowing someone is there to check them in and show them around the property and area. They are quick to respond for anything from additional linens to helping getting the fire started if necessary.

Why they chose this property

In 2014 Jack and Julie had the idea of continuing their father’s legacy in the Laurel Highlands by opening up Claycomb Chalets to the public by offering short-term vacation rentals in their father’s one-of-a-kind Chalets. They both quickly found out why their father loved the mountain and the people that came to visit year-round. Following in their father's traditions, they enjoy getting to know their guests and host annual open houses, pig roasts and holiday parties for all to enjoy.

What makes this property unique

Hands down it has to be the stone fireplaces. Who doesn't enjoy sitting by the fireplace sipping a good glass of wine while watching wildlife frolic among the woods surrounding the cabin. Snow covered trees in the winter and dark green forest and plant life in spring and summer months. The fall produces some of the most amazing changing colors that visitors from hundreds of miles come to experience. Finally, the people. We have amazing guests that come back year-after-year to enjoy our cabin.
