About this campground/ rv resort rental

Your Benezette adventure begins at this marvelous 3-bedroom tiny home. This beautiful property offers a cozy and comfortable stay for guests. The bedrooms feature a queen bed and three twin beds, ensuring a good night's sleep for everyone. With amenities like WiFi, a hair dryer, heating, AC, firepit, park-style charcoal grill, picnic table, hot tub (may not always be available), two 50" plus TVs with the highest package that Directv offers, a cell booster (most people do not need a booster; Verizon and Tmobile works best without booster), coffee pot (single and 10 cup), utensils, cups, pots, pans, air fryer, and more you'll have everything you need for a tremendous stay. The bathroom is equipped with a shower and a hair dryer. Plus, there's an additional space with a living room and a sofa bed for extra convenience. The lodge is under a huge metal building so you can even enjoy the outdoors on a rainy day. We'll be available to answer any questions while you stay at our place.

Benezette is the ”Elk Capital of Pennsylvania” and is located in the heart of the state’s wild elk herd, now numbering nearly 1,400 majestic animals. The best spot to start an elk viewing adventure is at the Elk Country Visitor Center on Winslow Hill (which is across the road from our property). The Mt. Zion Historical Park near Benezette is a beautiful and quiet place with an honor walkway and Civil War, Veterans, and Boy Scout memorials. The nearby Quehanna Wild Area features a spectacular White Birch grove in the Marion Brooks Natural Area. Most folks come here to just view the elk. 

There are a few actual “viewing areas” where you can get out of your vehicle and view the elk and other wildlife; all within 3 miles of our property and all accessible by any licensed and insured motorized vehicle. There are many ATV, UTV, motorcycle, horseback, and hiking trails in the area. Many people bring their state road legal motorcycles and travel for miles just to enjoy the beautiful scenery around the area. 

There are wineries and gift shops within a couple of miles. Fishing and hunting is great too. Many folks enjoy the local creek for swimming and it even has a rope swing. Bring kayaks and tubes for the local creek if you want.

Our Grand Lodge sits on 2 acres of land across the road from Elk Visitor’s Center in Benezette PA along with our Scenic Lodge (which is also a vacation rental https://www.vrbo.com/3544946?dateless=true). We also have a RV site next to the Scenic Lodge but that can only be booked when also booking the Scenic Lodge.

This is the heart of elk country. We often have elk and many other kinds of wildlife roaming through our property and even bedding down. Winslow Hill Rd is well known for being the best road to travel to see elk and our property borders this road. You can access this township road from our property by any licensed and insured motorized vehicle such as an ATV, side-by-side UTV, motorcycle, etc. There are plenty of trails and even township roads where you can ride your off road vehicles. There are a lot of hiking trails and even horseback riding trails. Horses and animals are allowed but any hoofed animal would have to remain trailered when not riding. Bring your bicycles because there is a lot of room for riding that is not on the main road.

If you love the outdoors then this is where you will want to be. Some of the biggest elk in the country come through our property. Cell service works with most carriers, but you can turn on WiFi calling on your phone or plug in our cell booster if need be. Deer, elk, turkey, squirrels, rabbits, birds, and other animals are spotted on the property daily (don’t worry we have never seen a snake).

We have added a shed full of outdoor games, water toys, child high chairs, pack and plays, outdoor play yard, etc

Have a friend with a RV?? We have a RV lot on site with 50amp electric service and water. RV users can bring pets but no pets in our Grand Lodge.

The location was ideal for elk viewing and hiking. Just the right size for the 3 of us and had everything we needed. The hot tub was not working, which was disappointing. It could have been a little cleaner as there were crumbs/dirt on the furniture and floors and the soap dispenser was not filled in the bathroom. Overall, we had a good stay, but for the price I would expect cleaner and a hot tub as advertised.

It was cold, the water wasn't drinkable, they are cameras they monitor our coming and going. Advertise 2 TVs and there was only one. Only one garage bag to use. Big thing didn't like the owners watching us.
