About this property

Cozy cabin in the Western part of the PA Wilds & the Allegheny Nat'l Forest

Our cabin is located near the small settlement of Neilltown (actually a crossroads with 6 homes and a church) 9 miles from Tionesta & Titusville and within the western part of the PA Wilds, adjacent to the Allegheny National Forest and Wilderness Area. You can come here to look relax, find peace and quiet, and refresh your spirit in the solitude of the Big Woods. Or, you can find more activities than you can possibly do in one visit. Forest County is PA’s least populated county where camps outnumber residences.
The cabin, Procrastination Station, can sleep 6 to 8 people. It has 2 bedrooms; a queen size bed in one, a queen size bunk bed in the other, a full bath with shower, and a fully equipped kitchen. The living room has a sofa with a double pull out bed. It has a flat screen TV with DVD player and a DVD Library for young and old alike, games and books. There is a modern wood stove, propane heater, and outside features are a rear deck, a graveled 16ft x 24ft picnic pavilion with picnic table, lawn chairs, gas grille, fire ring and dry firewood. All you have to do is bring your own food or choose restaurants in nearby Pleasantville and Titusville. Hunting can be arranged in season. In nearby Tionesta, Bald Eagles nest along the Allegheny River and soar over the Wilds. You will be close to Cooks Forest State Park with its virgin timber, Tionesta Dam for swimming and boating, tubing, kayaking and canoeing on the Allegheny River, Drakes Well in Titusville - the Birth Place of the Oil Industry, Cornplanter and Oil Creek State Parks, Kinzua Dam & Recreation Area and several huge State Game Lands.
We are also adjacent to the Great Lakes Region. Within a 1 ½ hour trip you can be to Lake Erie, Presque Isle, Waldameer Amusement Park, Presque Isle Downs Casino and Racetrack, Wine Country Tours, ski resorts, and more.

Great Getaway Cabin

If you are looking for a quiet, off the grid place for a getaway, or a super cabin for a hunt camp, this is your place. The cabin is comfortable, clean, and has some nice amenities such as great wrap around porch, shelter house, two gas grills, campfire area, and more. There is very little cell phone signal, and no wifi, so you can count on a restful vaca.

Private and quiet

Met by the host Andy; he was delightful and interested in our plans for the weekend. Discovered we have friends in common. Very clean, very well stocked and host is very accommodating. Cabin was toasty warm on arrival, property is well maintained and host was only a text away for questions. Beautiful time of year to stay. We recommend this place to anyone needing some down time to relax or get away from the hectic pace of work.

Lovely cabin that felt like home

What a wonderful cabin to take a few days to enjoy the outdoors! Hosts were very accomodating and made sure my stay was great. The cabin felt very comfortable - every little detail was there : supplies and plenty of wood for the firepit, tourism brochures with local amenities, kitchen/bathroom supplies, movies, books, games, etc. I particularly enjoyed the wraparound porch and hummingbird feeder, which had a frequent visitor. Would definitely stay again!

Fishing trip

Perfect for up to four people. Easy access clean and all the amenities provided for a comfortable stay. The host were kind friendly and helpful. You can watch the whitetail deer at sunrise and sunset from the back deck. Large outdoor pavilion with fire ring and grill for socializing. Many outdoor activities nearby. We had great stay.

Nice relaxing get away

Second time staying here, just me and the grandson. Cabin owners are great to deal with especially Jill, we had to leave unexpectedly and she refunded the money for the day even though she didn't have too and I appreciate it very much. Definitely recommend the place and thanks again Jill.

Loved it!!

The cabin was perfect for our family. My kids are already anxious to go again. The added touches, like the firepit and corn hole were nice. The owners were very friendly and left a welcome basket and muffins. The overall stay was so great, since there are not a lot of options in or near Tionesta, we loved having so much room and privacy. Looking forward to going back next year.

Fire pit

We enjoyed the fire pit and all the wood and kindling provided. The cabin was clean and comfortable except for the shower that is too small to bend over and give yourself a complete wash. The kitchen has everything you need to cook, which we did. Our main issue is that our phones did not work there! We could not call or answer texts. Our provider is Xfinity.

Excellent, excellent place

This was our 2nd year staying at procrastination station and it was as enjoyable and memorable as the first. Andy and Jill always make the trip special, from the welcome note left on the table, to the various snacks and candy left for us to savor. The cabin is laid out very nice and comfortably slept 6 of us with no issues. it is completely furnished and has almost anything you need from coffee makers to cookware. The only things needed to be brought by guests are food and clothes. We did ALL of our cooking over the fire and spent 95% of our time outside just relaxing. Even some rain showers couldn't stop us because the pavilion has enough room to still sit outside without getting wet. Andy stopped by to drop off some more wood for us and he was absolutely wonderful. Can't say enough positive things about this place.

Spring Trout Fishing...

Procrastination Station is our go-to cabin for early season trout fishing in Forest and Venango region; great location with numerous streams for weekend excursion. Jill and Andy are excellent hosts, providing everything needed for that weekend-getaway - rustic feel yet civilized. Spacious outdoor area includes fire pit, small pavilion with picnic table and grill - plus large covered deck on two sides of cabin. Accommodations are clean and comfortable with 2 bedrooms, open living room / kitchen area and bath with shower. Wood burning stove great addition for chilly springtime temperatures. Most importantly - Jill and Andy are hassle-free hosts; clear communications, help with planning visits if requested and accessible as needed during stay. Love the Station!

Our stay at cabin.

Setting up an account on vrbo and getting past all the verification codes was murder. The cabin and its features was as listed. There is a small community of cabins spread all over, so you have privacy and a lot to yourself. Except the trail behind the cabin, people were driving on it with their atvs at 9 10 o'clock at night. The cabin was just what we needed and then some. The shower had hot water and great pressure. Jill even gave us lots of firewood, and there were snacks in the kitchen. The pots, utensils, bed and bathroom stuff was there, along with a tv with dish. The beds, pillow and couch was comfy. Just wished we had some wifi at the cabin to explore the area. There is maps, but there not accurate or specific. Overall excellent cabin, would be our first choice next time.

What makes this property unique
