Rest & Relaxation
Digger’s Den was the perfect location for a weekend getaway with my husband and our pup. We enjoyed the hot tub immensely! Mr Powell stopped in Saturday morning to introduce himself and to make sure everything was going well. We mostly hung out at the cabin (and it was fantastic with all of its comforts of home) with the exception of a short trip into downtown Mifflinburg to visit the local shops and have a wonderful meal at the Rusty Rail, all just a few miles away on Saturday afternoon. If the need to “escape” ever arises again, I will definitely be checking the availability of this little gem of a place!!

Property is the perfect place to unwind. We were able to go to a few nearby antique stores and restaurants before the snow arrived. Then settled in and enjoyed.

A lovely weekend
This was a beautiful spot to spend a quiet weekend; we spent our time alternating between sun room reading and hot tub and fishing. It was a great place to unwind and take a deep breath. Thank you for sharing your space

Loved it
My wife, my son, and I spent a long weekend at this property. My only complaint is that we didn't book a longer trip. No tech, just time with the family enjoying penn creek and the local woods. The cabin was clean, the hot tub was enjoyable, the fire pit was great. What more could you ask for. Cant wait to go back.

Fishing getaway
Place was nice for a fishing getaway. Small rooms (2) and bathroom. Unfortunately the water had a horrible sulfur smell. Couldn't drink it and showering was not easy. The smell was bad. Other than that it was nice to be on the river but water was low. Hot tub outside was nice.

HORRIBLE -Soooooo very Dirty!
The most DIRTIEST cabin we’ve ever stayed at. Had to clean the fridge just to use it. The kitchen sink n faucet were soooo very grody. We went n bought a new coffee maker just so we could have clean coffee, Ended up eating out our entire stay, Wasn’t trusting using anything in that kitchen. The water smelled so horrible and we had to shower with that crap. The toilet water even had a constant dingy tint to it. Exactly what you wanna wash your hair, face n body with huh? We showered and our skin smelled like rotten eggs our entire stay and we are clean people. I love eggs but I surely don’t wanna smell like them, especially not rotten eggs. Ugh! Texted Martha about it and she didn’t care, no apologies what so ever, just said there’s nothing we can do about it, which is a lie cause we stayed at a super clean cabin down the road from this one 2 yrs in a row and she fixed her smelly water for us. Only reason we tried Digger’s Den is because the clean one down the road was all booked up. The pictures for this cabin are very deceiving and they surely don’t warn you of the nasty smelling water in the listing. The ceiling of the one bedroom is so dirty and we found potato chips in and on the couch. Hot tub was the cleanest thing at Digger’s Den but the best part of our stay was the fishing opportunity out back. They definitely don’t clean this place or take any pride in it. I’d post pictures as proof to all I’m saying, but Vrbo doesn’t give ya that option which sucks.

Beautiful and peaceful
The place is beautiful. So peaceful and quiet. Its right on the creek and a has a huge deck. The place is a little outdated, but that didnt take away from the beautiful scenery. The hosts were wonderful and helpful with any questions. I definitely recommend the place for a nice weekend or a peacful getaway.

Beautiful riverside cabin
The cabin met all of our needs with some great bonuses of swimming in the creek and the hot tub. The property was well maintained, clean, and had everything we needed. The water does have a slight odor of minerals when showering but drinking water was provided. The setting cant be beat, we will return for sure.
