About the host

Hosted by Brittany Gibbs

Host profile image
This will be a Forest Mill Cabins third season in service. The co-owner and founder is named Johnny, and I am Brittany, co-owner and property manage. We met in the cabins first season, and I was fortunate enough to be able to help shape and mold everything we offer our guests. We pride ourselves on providing outstanding customer service, quick response times, and of course customer satisfaction. We are currently expanding to a second development, and our first raw land commercial development.

Johnny was raised in this area and has a insiders understanding of not only how to provide the best experience for the guests, he is also very resourceful if guests are looking for something in particular. He is a loving father (Pic above), dedicated businessman, and a truly talented visionary.

I came to this area a year and a half ago on a nursing contract, and rented one of his units. It wasn’t long before I was presented with the opportunity to be part of this special company. Since then it has been an amazing adventure, and we take pride in what we have created. Naturally the most rewarding part has been being able to participate in providing the space for an unforgettable experience to each guest.

Why they chose this property

Amazing location conveniently located off Rt 66. Easy access to town and minutes away from a plethora of activities from wine tastings, to hunting and fishing, or simply relaxing in the river after a hike in the woods. Recently renovated and jam-packed with amenities; we can’t wait to share our space with you.

Disclaimer: Local Sawmill is within audible distance of property, causing the potential for noise pollution Monday through Friday. A price reduction on these days reflects that potential.

What makes this property unique

We are available anytime a guest need us. This is our first listing on VRBO, but we are well-established on another platform. I bring attention to that only because we have a 100% response rate and have been titled super hosts! Being able to provide you with an amazing experience is at the core of our passion.

We are located between the Allegheny national forest and the infamous cooks forest. There are several trails of varying degrees of difficulty and composure. We are very well known for hunting, fishing, and snowmobiling as well. If that is not your cup of tea, we are only a few minutes from the Allegheny National River. Pick a Cove and jump in or along the river front, there is a canoe/raft rental company that also provides transportation!

While in town most any essential need is available and the small close knit community will make you feel like family. Marienville is truly a hidden gem!
