There is a queen-size air mattress for additional guests if required.

Each room has been warmly decorated with a rustic elegance and features a mountain cabin theme as well as hardwood flooring and large windows while the beds all come with quality linens and comfortable pillows. There is one full bathroom, which displays a modern design that comes with a toilet, a hand basin, and a shower and tub combination.

After a day’s activities in one of Clearfield County’s state parks, guests can kick their shoes off and chill out on leather seating in front of a wood-burning fireplace and a television. Home-cooked meals can be prepared in the fully equipped kitchen that features an array of modern appliances including an oven, a stove, a microwave, and a refrigerator while there is plenty of room for more than one chef on cooking duty and there is a dining table that can sleep up to 12 guests.

Outside, guests can gather around the fire pit to toast s’mores and admire the clear skies of the countryside for the ideal end to the evening. There are many state parks and forests within easy driving distance, and if guests fancy a change of scenery, the city of Pittsburgh is just two hour's drive away.

The property is well equipped with an array of amenities in its completely equipped kitchen as well as a wood-burning fireplace that keeps the cabin cozy and warm in the colder months. Air conditioning is provided, though rarely needed, during the summer months. Guests have access to a covered deck, a screened-in porch, and a gas grill for barbecue meals in the sunshine. There is a fire pit for cooking over an open flame. Firewood is provided for the wood burner and for starting the fire pit fires, however, guests are asked to gather wood from the surrounding forest to feed the fire pit flames.
