There are as many cabins for hire in Pennsylvania as there are reasons people find to hire them. The state has a plethora of picturesque destinations, along the shores of Lake Erie, among the Blue Ridge Mountains and deep in the state park forests. The seasons bring fresh vistas with spring flowers, autumn foliage and winter wonderlands. Disused railways have found new purpose as hiking trails, biking tracks and ski routes. Black bears, elks and other wild creatures still make their homes in the state. The Old Order Amish have kept up their 18th century traditions, supported by local and international tourists. Many lifelong friendships have been kindled around campfires in Pennsylvania. Certain attractions may be temporarily closed or require advance reservations. Hours/availability may have changed.
