Remodeled with rustic oak flooring and a whitetail deer theme, this cabin is easy to settle into. The full kitchen includes a refrigerator/freezer, glass top stove and oven, microwave, coffee maker, toaster and crock pot. Pots, pans, cookware, utensils and dishware are all provided. WIFI access,DISH satellite TV, DVD and VHS players and CD/radio are there for your use. Outside for your enjoyment are a deck, fire ring, picnic table and gas grill.

PLEASE NOTE: This rental is half of a duplex with a permanent resident in the other side. The rental has it's own private entrance, deck, fire ring and picnic table. We have compensated for the possible disadvantage of this set up by making our rates lower than others in our area. We have had many, many satisfied guests over the past 14 years but if this set up won't meet your needs please look elsewhere.

Bed and kitchen linens are also included. Bath linens are NOT provided.

Misty Pines cabin rental has been sharing our beautiful surroundings with guests since 2008. Visitors never seem to grow tired of the changing mountain scene before them. Whether it's dancing plumes of morning mist, colorful fall foliage, serene sunsets, or foraging wildlife, the view always creates a sense of peace.

Located in Sterling Run, Cameron County, we are in the heart of the PA Wilds and magnificent elk country. If you are looking for a place to connect with nature and outdoor adventure while still enjoying the comforts of home, Misty Pines is for you! Our local state forests, gamelands, trout waters, lakes and state parks offer plenty of room to roam in Pennsylvania's natural beauty.

Our busiest season is in the fall during the elk rut (mating season). The haunting bugling of the bulls and the rattle of clashing antlers are an exhilarating experience. During this busy season, throngs of visitors flood PA's elk capital, the nearby town of Benezette, creating crowds ranging from pleasant hustle and bustle to literal gridlock. Our location, 40 minutes away, offers guests a peaceful respite after a day of sightseeing with other tourists. Not to mention that there is a very real possibility of seeing elk anywhere along the scenic ride from Misty Pines to Benezette. Highway or dirt road, it's up to you!

We are Mark and Evelyn Keiter and we live in the home up the road, the only other house visible from the cabin. We look forward to meeting new guests, with some regular visitors becoming friends. But, we know people come here to get away and would never disturb a guests' privacy unnecessarily. Most find it reassuring to know that we are nearby to help with questions about the area, or that one item that was left at home or even assistance with car trouble. We enjoy being able to provide a comfy stay for people as they share in the wonderful place that we call home. We hope to see you soon!

    Great property, easy to find. Amazingly large rooms! Even though it's half of a duplex, you would never know the other person is there. We never heard any sound from the other unit, and they were home. We enjoyed waking up to see deer and foxes outside. We also enjoyed the fire pit and provided firewood. Would definitely stay again!

    Our stay was very nice! Kitchen was stocked enough. Check in was very easy. It was beautiful views and scenery. We saw plenty of deer which was nice but elk were iffy. Just before dark we THINK 2 elk walked through but just not sure because of the distance and lack of light. The queen mattress was very soft-maybe tooo soft. We watched the hummingbirds and spotted some bluebirds and bunnies. Our stay was very nice and private and secure. May do this again! Thank you!

    We had an unforgettable stay at this peaceful Driftwood retreat! The house was clean, cozy, and perfectly located — just a short drive to Sinnemahoning State Park and minutes from great fly fishing spots. The weather was beautiful, and the views from the property were absolutely stunning.Everything was just as described, with comfortable beds, a well-stocked kitchen, and thoughtful touches throughout. It was the perfect place to unwind after long days on the water. Would absolutely stay here again!

    We absolutely loved our stay at the Whitetail Cottage at Misty Pines! It was incredibly clean and cozy, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Evelyn, the host, was super helpful, offering fantastic suggestions of things to do in the area.One of the highlights was the cottage's surroundings: it's nestled among beautiful mountain views and fields of wildflowers, which attracted deer at dawn and dusk – a truly magical sight! The location was also convenient for our plans, about a 35-minute drive from the Sinnemahoning Wildlife Center. We highly recommend the Whitetail Cottage for anyone looking for a peaceful and charming getaway!

    We came to visit the PA Wilds and see the elk. While elk viewing did not happen, the night sky was beautiful. The cabin was quaint and we found it very cozy. If we ever come back to try seeing the elk again, we will stay at Misty Pines.
