Nice, clean house. Secluded enough from other homes but close enough to a town with lots of stores & restaurants. Close drive to Benezett to see the elk.
Our family stayed here for a long weekend. It was clean, quiet and private, which is exactly what we had wanted. We look forward to staying here again in the future.
As always a great stay! Very clean, comfy beds, well stocked kitchen, fun in the game room and best of all the fireplace! We had a nice and cozy stay. This is our 3rd stay at the house and pleasantly surprised with the beautiful updates.we will definitely be back. It’s my elderly parents favorite place to go!
House was secluded, but close to where we wanted to explore. Was stocked with everything one needs for being away from home. Plenty of room to spread out. Great value! Would recommend.
We enjoyed the location and were hoping to see elk in the nice yard but did not see any there. We always love renting off of Seth because he is easy to work with and quick to respond. Cabin met our needs. I slept great there.
Its our 3rd time staying at this property. We had a minor water problem and were able to contact an owner immediately. Looking forward to many more family adventures here as we find this rental accommodates the wide range in ages of our family - from 7 to 85.
Our weekend stay at camp Bull Hollow was unforgettable. Beautiful scenery, fishing nearby, hiking nearby. The evenings and mornings are so peaceful on the deck. My son loved the basement features…. It’s a surprise so check it out for yourself! The house is equip with everything you need to cook, sleep, clean - making vacationing here a breeze! Property owners are very kind and make the process easy as well. Check out Bull Hollow!
Stayed in this property for two nights with family. The place is secluded but easy to access. We were all extremely impressed with how clean the house was and how much room there was. We hung out by the firepit at night which was wonderfully convenient. We visited the bait shop down the road and the owner was wonderful. He was able to tell us where they recently stocked and we were able to catch around 30 fish between the 3 of us fishing. The stream was stunning and looked like something out of a Bob Ross painting. Overall, were were all extremely impressed with the property and will be returning with the kids as soon as we can make it back!
It is a clean big house. I would raise the step into the high because because it isn't comfortable with knee replacement. The fridge and freezer stop working which wasn't good.
The location is close to everything you would want
Enjoyed our 2nd stay here. The house is stocked really well with towels, kitchen & cooking needs, as well as cleaning needs. The air hockey table is an added bonus for my husband and I lol. It’s very clean other than the carpet stains, but that’s not a deal breaker. On this recent stay, the master bath shower and under the master sinks have been leaking so the smell of sulfur was pretty strong. We just kept the door shut and exhaust fan on and that helped a lot. We will be returning.
The house was very comfortable for our family. Went to use the BBQ grill and previous guest that used it did not clean it properly and had growth on the grill. Decided to use a different method of cooking our hamburgers. After Monday night football we realized we did not have water. Called and they told us they would be over in the morning. Was fixed prior to most of the family getting out of bed.
Would definitely consider this property again.
The house met all of our needs and then some. The weather was not great during our stay which couldn't be helped. The elk were hard to find on this trip, but we found other means of entertainment in the general area. Our luck changed when we found out that the grounds of the Visitor Center actually opened earlier than what the sign says if they have the staff. We saw 4 cows in the cemetery one evening after getting soaked looking for them in the field. The next morning before we left, we finally saw a bull with an awesome rack and a bunch of turkeys at the center around 7:15AM. You just need to be in the right place at the right time. We also enjoyed the Farmers Inn in Sigel and the Double Diamond Deer Ranch. We had brisket with homemade BBQ chips at the Apple Valley BBQ, great meals at the Dream Catch, and Penn State Creamery ice cream at the trailer on Winslow Hill.that was totally awesome. Everyone we met on this trip were friendly and very helpful sharing tips on where and when to look for elk.
The property is secluded and private, but also close by a main route and very convenient. The house was nice and clean, and had all the amenties to make our stay easy and enjoyable. Easy parking, easy to get to, and comfortable house.
The place is perfect and near everything. There was only three of us, but we plan on coming here again, because of all the space. It is so nice having 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, nice size rooms and even a game room. The yard was big and private with a wooded area to walk the dogs. Having two nice decks in the summer and fall would be so enjoyable too. The place was spotless and had all the supplies one would need. The hosts were wonderful and so helpful with everything. We can’t wait to stay here again.
Our first day there we had 3 large bull elk in the yard…we sat and watched them for about 40 mins. Home is very nice and well maintained and they had everything you needed right there. Enjoyed our stay very much!
A nice, mountain escape with a hunting lodge theme. A great spot for a group of adults or a large family to stay because there are several rooms and bathrooms as well as plenty of parking.The owners were generous enough to accommodate us extending our stay for unexpected family reasons.We would stay here again :)
The property was clean and comfortable and we enjoyed our stay there. However, the basement needed attention to clear the musty odor that seemed to affect the bunk room.
