The place is very nice. Communication with the host was great. Only thing I can complain about is the weather while I was there. But that just gives me a good excuse to go back.

Overall my wife and I had a great stay. I drive a Subaru Impreza and while the bottom of the driveway was a little tight my car handled it with no issue. The steps to get to bedroom are a little bit steep but again a non issue for the two of us. The place was clean and aside from a couple minor changes was just about perfect for a weekend trip. Would definitely recommend to others and would stay again.

Perfect Bare-bones Accomodations for a few days away

Cabin was great to just rest and recharge after a few days of hiking and stargazing. Had to drop a star for location only because its a bit further than many other spots closer to Cherry Springs. But, it is on a farm so we got to enjoy watching the bulls and sheep grazing.

Wonderful stay at this cozy cabin! Easy check in and check out process. Private, serene setting in the woods behind a few acres of farmland. We came for stargazing and trout fishing and the location was perfect. Cherry Springs State Park is a very easy 15 min drive from the cabin, but we were also excited to find the view of the night sky from the property was just as spectacular. We also found nearby Lyman Run and Asaph Run were excellent fishing. Would recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in beautiful Potter County.

Property was nice. Have to use dirt roads to get to it so make sure to have a car/suv that can handles non-paved roads. Was a peaceful pleasant stay.

Great getaway!

Our stay at Benn’s place was great. The place was clean and had everything that we needed. Nice and cozy and easy to find. One thing to note about the location is the gravel road does have a stretch that will ice over in the winter months.
