About this property

My charming log cabin sits on 100 acres of private land which adjoins 2200 of New York State Forest. It overlooks a small pond that is stocked with bass. You are welcome to catch a few and cook them fresh on the gas grill. The front porch is comfortable with beautiful views of the pond, hills, and the valley below.

It is a cozy cabin with a sleeping loft and comes with a fully equipped kitchen and a shower. The loft has a queen size bed and the first floor has a double futon.

The sleeping loft is reached via a narrow metal spiral staircase.

Bring your bicycles in the summer or your cross-country skis or snowshoes in the winter or your hiking boots year round, as the state forest is full of groomed trails. Or bring your books and just relax and enjoy your surroundings.

There is a fire pit for cool evenings or just to enjoy while relaxing.

We are only 12 minutes from Ellicottville, New York which is a quaint little ski and resort town. You can ski in the winter or golf in the summer. There are world-class restaurants for fine dining and wonderful shopping. Take advantage of all that this enchanting area has to offer. I have some of the highlights listed below.

It is the perfect place for solitude or a romantic getaway. I hope you will come and enjoy this special place on Golden Hill!!

Beautiful cabin in the woods.

My wife and I stayed for a ski weekend. Communication with the owner was excellent throughout our stay. Property is in a beautiful, quiet location and has everything you need for your stay. The weather was very cold during our stay so the cabin was on the cool side but sleeping loft was comfortable. We would definitely stay here again!

Quiet and cozy!

The cabin had everything you could need for a cozy and quiet stay in the woods in winter. The host was great and even helped us out when we ran into some car trouble. My dogs loved running around in the snow. I definitely want to vacation back for when I need some quiet time.

Beautiful cabin and weekend!

We have stayed at many rentals, and this is by far our favorite! We discovered it during Covid and we keep going back. It was so special and so comfortable and we find new things to do in every season. Bette is the kindest host ever and her helpers are excellent as well. We had a beautiful snowy weekend and she made sure we were safe and plowed out. She is always making improvements to this beautiful place and sometimes we even miss the days that WIFI was spotty lol. It is cabin perfection and we are forever grateful. Our son and wife came along who also spent their honeymoon here, and soon we will bring our first grandchild too.Thank you Bette! Thanks Willie for plowing us in and out too!

A very unique property

Close enough to Ellicottville, NY ( 15 mins) to drive in for lunch and at the same time - worlds away from civilization. This cabin is quiet and rustic, but has every needed amenity. The property is also located next to a large State Forrest with several trail heads just a few minutes drive away. This was my 5th stay at this property and I will be back in the very near future.

The most charming cabin

Absolutely perfect place for a quiet getaway in nature. The pond was perfect for the pups to splash and play in as well as catching bass. The privacy and beauty is absolutely perfect. We cannot wait to return

Amazing !

What a beautiful location, so nice and quiet, love to hear the owls in the mornings, plenty of fish in the pond ( didn't catch any ) would love to know what kind of bait others were using ? Can't wait to go back in the spring for another breathtaking adventure!

Cozy and private with a great view

The cabin is rustic and secluded. Yet, it offers the convenience and comfort of most amenities. My family (including our pup) enjoyed fishing in the pond, relaxing around the campfire, and hiking in the woods. The host was very responsive and helpful when contacted. We would love to stay here again.
