About this property

Cabin-style tiny home along best elk viewing road


Benezette is the ”Elk Capital of Pennsylvania” and is located in the heart of the state’s wild elk herd, now numbering nearly 1,400 majestic animals. The best spot to start an elk viewing adventure is at the Elk Country Visitor Center on Winslow Hill (which is across the road from our property). The Mt. Zion Historical Park near Benezette is a beautiful and quiet place with an honor walkway and Civil War, Veterans, and Boy Scout memorials. The nearby Quehanna Wild Area features a spectacular White Birch grove in the Marion Brooks Natural Area. Most folks come here to just view the elk. 

There are a few actual “viewing areas” where you can get out of your vehicle and view the elk and other wildlife; all within 3 miles of our property and all accessible by any licensed and insured motorized vehicle. There are many ATV, UTV, motorcycle, horseback, and hiking trails in the area. Many people bring their state road legal motorcycles and travel for miles just to enjoy the beautiful scenery around the area. 

There are wineries and gift shops within a couple of miles. Fishing and hunting is great too. Many folks enjoy the local creek for swimming and it even has a rope swing. Bring kayaks and tubes for the local creek if you want.

Our Scenic Lodge sits on 2 acres of land across the road from Elk Visitor’s Center in Benezette PA. This is the heart of elk country. We often have elk and many other kinds of wildlife roaming through our property and even bedding down. Winslow Hill Rd is well known for being the best road to travel to see elk and our property borders this road. You can access this township road from our property by any licensed and insured motorized vehicle such as an ATV, side-by-side UTV, motorcycle, etc. There are plenty of trails and even township roads where you can ride your off road vehicles. There are a lot of hiking trails and even horseback riding trails. Horses and animals are allowed but any hoofed animal would have to remain trailered when not riding. Bring your bicycles because there is a lot of room for riding that is not on the main road.

If you love the outdoors then this is where you will want to be. Some of the biggest elk in the country come through our property. Cell service works with most carriers, but you can turn on WiFi calling on your phone if need be. Deer, elk, turkey, squirrels, rabbits, birds, and other animals are spotted on the property daily (don’t worry we have never seen a snake😀).

Have a friend with a RV?? We have a RV lot on site with 50amp electric service and water. RV users can bring pets but no pets in our Scenic Lodge.

Location to elk viewing center was ideal

The house was fine, the location left some to be desired. I read in an earlier review about someone leaving a radio on during their entire stay. Guess what, its still on and blaring all day and all night. The owners of this cabin were very easy to contact and accommodate what we needed.

Our stay in teeny tiny cabin

The cabin was clean and the location was fantastic. The living area, 1st floor bedroom, and bathroom were adequate. However, there is no way this property should be advertised to accommodate 4-6 adults. Sleeps 4-6 is deceptive at best. The upstairs bedroom has limited headroom, and the steps are steep and narrow. A large adult would not be able to access bedroom.

Nice and cute

Went out to see some elk and to get away a little. Did see elk about 7mins down the road. Wasnt much going on for wildlife by the cabin because one of the neighbors was blasting a radio nonstop literally 24/7. Dont know if they forgot to turn it off and left or what, but that was pretty much the only downside. Motion cameras with lights on them kept coming on as well, but is what it is. Cabin had everything you need though and was clean and cute. If you are tall, just watch your head in the shower.
