Beautiful lodge and stunning views! Our family went away for the weekend to celebrate my dad's birthday. The rooms and bathrooms are very spacious and the kitchen open and functional for cooking and staying in! Beautiful property and we enjoyed the firepit and boys played football in the front yard. Clean, comfortable and everything you need to enjoy a stay!

This place was PERFECT. It had everything one could wish for when visiting the Wilds of Pennsylvania. The view of the snowcapped mountains out the window when waking up each day was a bonus … almost made us feel like we were in the Rocky Mountains. We were looking for a place to celebrate my birthday with the entire family and were able to comfortably accommodate everyone (parents, children and grandkids) with enough room to let everyone have their own space but still be all together under one roof. Looking forward to visiting again during warmer weather to take advantage of the huge porch, the fire ring area and the viewing bar on the side porch overlooking the food plot.Thank you for sharing your beautiful mountain house!

Warm and cozy lodge with great wildlife!

Our group of friends was looking for a place to disconnect for the New Years holiday and we found the PERFECT spot at Bugle Hollow Lodge! The wildlife was amazing - Elk in the yard everyday. It was so nice to cozy up in front of the fireplace and enjoy our time together. Highly recommend!

Beautiful Lodge

Our family and friends joined us for a long weekend in the mountains. Everything about this house is perfect! We loved the location, the views, and the wildlife. Very spacious and roomy, we never left once we arrived. We enjoyed watching the elk and deer. Hands down this is one of the nicest and most well built houses we have ever stayed in. We all highly recommend this house to anyone looking to visit the area.

Absolutely Awesome!

This property is well thought out and executed, in a perfect setting with beautiful views, abundant wildlife, and plenty of other activities. Our family of 10 enjoyed every minute of our stay at the Bugle Hollow Lodge. From watching the Elk and other wild life to family game nights and sitting around the fire enjoying each others' company. We left feeling totally refreshed and rejuvenated.

Amazing place!

We were attending a wedding in Sinnemahoning. It was so nice to come back to such a clean, quiet get-away at Bugle Hollow. Wildlife to look at, and the view! Amazing. Our rooms were cozy. Everyone had their ow bathroom, and well organized space for preparing to head out. Thank you for the great communication on getting in, what to expect, and checking out! Loved it!

Perfect Weekend Getaway

My family (a total of 15 people) spent Easter weekend at Bugle Hollow Lodge. The house was spacious, beautiful, very clean, and well stocked with everything we needed. Communication with owner was top notch, leaving no unanswered questions and being very accommodating. The scenery and wildlife lived up to our expectations and we saw several elk in the yard grazing. The nearby trails were scenic, challenging, and fun to hike. While not a big deal to us, due to the location, our cell service was limited, but the house did have wifi.

The lodge and our stay were amazing. The amenities were above and beyond right down to the make-up mirror in the bathroom like I have at home. The only thing I can think of that might be nice is a larger fridge. We only had 9 staying, but the lodge has room enough for 15. We just used our coolers for bottled water and drinks and made it work. With more people and a longer stay it would have been tough to keep everything cold. We were a few minutes late checking out and crossed paths with one of the family members that own the lodge. That was definitely a nice plus. Thank you so much for such a great place to call "home away from". It definitely checked all our boxes and then some.

Perfect in every way, Needs more than 5 stars

Everything about our stay was absolutely perfect, from the helpful friendly owners, to the clean & spotless home. Location and views are next to none. Wildlife the greatest entertainment. This placed is so well furnished and the perfect place to go and unplug. Bring your clothes and some food and you will not want to leave. Spacious and comfortable for our family (5 couples) gathering. Great gathering places and still have your private space. We have stayed in over 10 really nice homes across the country in the last 4 years, but this one tops them all ! Advise, do not roam into the feed plot areas as that could ruin the wildlife movement so close to the home.

Beautiful

The Bugle Hollow Lodge is beautiful. It is set in a beautiful location, it is very peaceful. The house itself has everything you need. My compliments to the decorator. Done beautifully. There was literature available to review what there is to do. We saw wildlife everyday. A bear, Elk, deer, gray fox and a Bobcat. Really did not need to leave for anything. Piece of Heaven. We are planning to return to Bugle Hollow lodge. I recommend this place. Definitely a 5 star place.

Bugle Hollow Lodge "Amazing"

Incredible weekend at the Buggle Hollow Lodge. The hard work and love that this family have put into this place was absolutely over the top. We are so very blessed to have people in this world that would share this place with others. We spent time with family, seen LOTS of elk right outside the door (which was out of this world). Definitely renting this in the future. The owners have thought of everything to supply this place. My grandson wanted an English muffin with butter and brown sugar, Unfortunally I did not have brown sugar with but low and behold there was a container in the pantry. You made a little boy very happy. 5 Star place.

Family Getaway

Bugle Hollow is the best place we have stayed! We had 8 adults and 4 kids. The layout is so thoughtfully done. Each family had plenty of privacy and we’re still able to enjoy being together in common areas. The owners have thought of everything. Kitchen is well stocked, even some BBQ sauce that we forgot to bring. We all enjoyed seeing wildlife everyday - deer, Turkey, possum, toads, hummingbirds, and an elk one evening! He spent about 45 minutes in the yard allowing us wonderful views and photo opportunities. Loved the covered porch area where we could view the wildlife, relax when it was very hot and be covered when it rained. Easy drive to the Elk Center and enjoyed going to the Elk Expo. We will definitely be back - hopefully next year!

Wildlife abundant!

The wildlife we saw was absolutely incredible. Where else can you see herds of elk literally a stones throw away without driving hours to see them out west? Truly amazing. We also saw several flocks of turkeys and about 50 whitetail deer. I learned so much about elk by observing. We saw at least a dozen different bull elk, some of which had dropped their antlers. The wildlife center in Bennezette was a great supplement where we read more facts about the elk. We attended a seminar at the visitor center for the reintroduction of the American Marten. All I can say is you gotta come visit this place. You will be blown away by the wildlife. And of course the facility was amazing. No attention to detail spared on the construction. The hosts went above and beyond in customer satisfaction. I would recommend this to anyone who would like to see wildlife and enjoy the remote wilderness.

Bugle Hollow Lodge is an Incredible PA Elk Country Getaway

We took a chance on Bugle Hollow as it didn't yet have any reviews. We booked the lodge for a long weekend hoping to see some nice scenery, have some peace and quiet, and hopefully see some elk. Bugle Hollow Lodge delivered all three in ample amounts! We got to watch a beautiful elk herd every morning and evening, feeding only a few yards from the lodge. We watched two bulls sparring each morning, which was amazing to watch - we were even several weeks before the official start of the rut. Apart from the elk, which were awesome enough on their own, there was an albino whitetail fawn and a red fox that we watched on the property as well. The lodge itself is beautifully crafted with high end appointments at every turn. The views of the mountains from the front of the lodge, the beautiful wrap around deck, and the amazing kitchen are just a few of the highlights. The only cons that our group experienced were the communication from the host, Evolve and the price. We had a few questions that we asked prior to our arrival and they were never answered. Luckily, the owner of the lodge was around and came to greet us and answered a lot of them. Lyn is a really nice guy who loves wildlife and in particular, elk. He told us all about the history of the property and the effort that went into building the lodge. The lodge would be a great getaway for a handful of couples for a long weekend. The only downside as mentioned before is that it may be too costly for just two or three couples unless there's a very large group like we had. But, if the cost isn't a factor, then you will not regret booking Bugle Hollow. We absolutely loved every second of our stay there and hopefully will get to go back one day. The lodge is an absolute hidden gem. Book it! You won't be disappointed.
