This log cabin was beautiful and a perfect balance of rustic and updated amenities. The kitchen was fully stocked and had everything we needed. The host was very responsive to any questions and very friendly. The lighted pathways and stairs were so beautiful and allowed us to walk and enjoy the evenings. We highly recommend this place for a couples getaway or a family vacation.

Absolutely wonderful stay; wish we were booked longer. We wanted to spend Easter with our daughter who is a student a SRU. The cabin is gorgeous, clean and packed full of fun things to do. We had a fire, played cornhole, fished, sat on the deck and played games. The kitchen was full of everything we needed. Everything was decorated so nicely and all the comforts of home were included. Thank you so much! We would love to come back.

The place is such a cute cabin on the Slippery Rock Creek. The family enjoyed the easy access to the creek for fishing and exploring. Our family enjoyed the peacefulness of the place and the char. The cabin is less then 7min drive to lake. The place had everything you need for a get away from home. The host of the Cabin was easy to get ahold and fast to respond if we needed her. It definitely will be a place our family would go back to.

Best experience with any VRBO!!

The owners thought of everything from having firewood to snacks on hand for us. There was charcoal for the grill and water in the fridge! We are already discussing another booking for our team as the location and layout were perfect for our needs.

Beautiful Cabin!

What a wonderful place! The only complaint was that it was a lot closer to the main road than we expected. We stayed inside most of the time so that wasn't a huge deal but it did make falling a sleep difficult for my husband and I. You could really hear the semi trucks.

Great place for family

Beautiful property. We came to visit family and it was the perfect spot for all age's. Kids are able to play in water and adults got to enjoy the porches and fire pit area. The road is loud but not a big issue. We will be renting this spot again. Thanks for the wonderful weekend.

Fell in love

We absolutely loved the slippery rock cabin! Beautiful and convenient- the owners thought of everything- from a well stocked kitchen to a coffee bar and firewood- we felt at home and pampered! Already looking for dates to return! Our family was charmed and our mini reunion was a massive success!

We loved it

We enjoyed our stay so much. There were six of us in our group for a girls bachelorette weekend celebration. We were pleasantly surprised by so many things as soon as we entered the cabin & enjoyed the surrounding outdoor area too. The cabin was so well stocked and extremely comfortable. We highly recommend staying and plan to come back. Thank you for sharing such an amazing property.

Slippery Rock Cabin always delights!!

I've stayed here twice before with friends and family, due originally to proximity to an annual event in the area. This time, we came just for the Cabin, and got a chance to enjoy things our busy schedule hasn't let us do before; exploding the path along the creek, resting by the firepit, etc. The area is as gorgeous in the Autumn as we'd hoped, and the care that Anita puts into preparing the Cabin for guests is evident everywhere, and very much appreciated. Already looking forward to our next stay - Thank You so much!!

Stayed 3 nights near the end of September, looking for a quiet getaway. The cabin was extremely clean, comfortable, and better stocked than we normally experience. The check in was easy, with clear instructions to utilize everything in the cabin. Beautiful setting by Slippery Rock Creek! Plan on returning this winter!

The perfect getaway

We were absolutely in love with the back yard. The double level decks which over looks Slippery Rock Creek. Anita’s home was warm and cozy! Open room concept including kitchen, dinning area and lovely family room with a vaulted ceiling and a large fan! Bedding was amazing along with many amenities and a nice assortment of snacks!

About the host

Hosted by Anita J Schroeder

Host profile image
I'm a homeschooling mother of three boys and one girl. I'm active in organizing events in the homeschool community and will be hosting outdoor programs at our cabin on a regular basis. This is a new venture for me and I hope you find the cabin as amazing as I do.

Why they chose this property

We love the outdoors and have been looking for a cabin on water for a long time. When the original owners for this property decided to sell it, we knew it was the one. Just wait till you first go down the stairs to the creek and you will know what I mean. Until then, you will have to imagine it.

What makes this property unique

I find that being between the creek and the rock cliffs to be an experience you have to feel to understand.
