🌌 Moonraker 6 – Your Private Stargazing Retreat in the Pennsylvania Wilds
Far from the noise and lights of the city, Moonraker is where the night sky comes alive. Nestled deep in the forests of Potter County, this ultra-private log cabin sits beside its own 8-acre stargazing field—a front-row seat to the Milky Way, meteor showers, and the dazzling canopy of stars that make nearby Cherry Springs State Park famous.
Whether you’re here for a romantic escape, a family adventure, or a friends’ getaway, Moonraker offers space, comfort, and unforgettable views. The cabin sleeps up to 6+ guests with 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, a spacious great room for gathering, and a wraparound porch perfect for morning coffee or evening wine beneath the stars.
Inside:
Fully equipped kitchen for shared meals
Foosball, bubble hockey, and pool table for nights of fun
1 Gig high-speed internet for streaming or remote work (if you must)
Cozy dining and living areas designed for connection and comfort
Outside:
Private 8-acre stargazing field—no crowds, no distractions, just you and the cosmos
Miles of hiking trails right from the cabin’s back door
Access to 13,000+ acres of State Forest land for endless outdoor exploration
We love helping guests make the most of their stay:
Private guided star tours with local astronomers
ATV and side-by-side rentals for off-road adventures
Local gems like Rainbow Paradise Trout Farm
Day trips to the PA Grand Canyon, Kinzua Bridge Skywalk, Austin Dam, and the Pennsylvania Elk Herd
Important to know: The road to Moonraker is a gravel road. You should have 4 wheel drive in the winter. Please drive slowly and enjoy the journey; the privacy at the end of the road is worth it.
Why Moonraker? Because here, the night sky is more than something you see—it’s something you feel. You’ll laugh around the firepit, spot constellations with the kids, toast marshmallows with friends, and share quiet, meaningful moments with someone special under a galaxy of stars.
📅 2-night minimum (occasional single nights available—just ask). 🚗 Ultra-private, star-filled getaway just minutes from Cherry Springs State Park.
Moonraker isn’t just a cabin—it’s your own piece of the Pennsylvania Wilds, where memories are written in the stars.

If you want peace and quiet, this is the place to get it. Comfortable indoors, gorgeous night sky, and plenty of spaces to unwind. Enjoyed the stay enough to consider returning in the future to further enjoy what this location has to offer.
Idyllic cabin getaway featuring an amazing coffee bar, super comfortable beds, a stellar kitchen, a super fun game room, and lots of outdoor fun in the snow. House was clean and cozy and host was communicative. Loved that our dogs were allowed. Would love to return!
Our family had a great time at this property. It is secluded, beautiful and peaceful. Beds are comfortable and game room was perfect during the down-time. Star-gazing was wonderful. Owner is very helpful. We hope to return!

Thank you for your kind words about Moonraker. You are welcome back anytime.
We had a great stay. The house is fantastic. Expertly built and perfectly located if you are looking for an extremely quiet and dark location. The star gazing is as good as it gets, The house had everything we needed. Very comfortable stay and we would definitely go back.
Beautiful property and great accommodations. We really unplugged listening to the sounds of nature and looking up at night to see an amazing sky. Highly recommend this place if you need some quality time alone!
This cabin is amazing.. we hope to return in the future! We were very impressed with all of the thoughtful amenities offered, as well as the thoughtful/fun decor. The location is wonderfully secluded, but we felt close enough to the town to run errands or pop out for a day trip. Our whold family really enjoyed our stay!

Thank you so much for being our guest. You are welcome back anytime.
This lovely clean secluded cabin is perfect for a family and pet friendly getaway. The owners were wonderful and the cabin is filled with family entertainment such as games, puzzles and an upstair loft with game room We found the backyard area perfect for stargazing and relaxing at the firepit. The drive to the cabin added to the entertainment as well. Highly recommmed!
Absolutely amazing if you wanna be alone in the middle of the woods this is the place to be.
We didn’t have clear nights to see all the stars but we did get to sit out on the porch and listen the wildlife and the rain drops on the metal roof.
We will be coming back here again
Perfect to be away from everything and reconnect

The property is excellent for star gazing. Nice cabin.
Quiet, remote.
The property owner mentioned SUV to access cabin! Absolutely necessary, the road is horribly rutted and a car will drag the under carriage. But the cabin and night sky are worth "traveling the road".

Thank you for your kind comments about our night sky as it is one of the best places to view stars on the planet. Our rural location, including the road that , makes it a perfect spot to view the dark skies.
We loved our time at Moonraker 6! The owner definitely has a sense of humor, but I won't spoil it for those who've not been yet! The house was great, and the kids loved the game room. We had a blast hiking around the property. We cannot wait to go back!We had an unexpected power outage very briefly the first morning of our visit, and when I reached out to the owner, he was calm and helpful. Thankfully, the power was back on within the hour. I mention this only because I usually don't have to ever speak to the owners at vrbo rentals, but it was awesome that he made himself available to us, and was super accommodating. Awesome time. We cannot wait to go back for more stargazing!
This was our 2nd time visiting. It was the perfect location for our family to unwind and connect for a few days. Not to mention the incredible night skies and the feeling of total isolation. We look forward to our 3rd trip there already!
