About this cottage rental

Located in Allegheny River, this attractive cottage for $165 per night is a great choice for your next break. Located a mere one mile from the Elk Country Visitor’s Center, The Elk Grove is a semi-secluded haven right in the heart of Benezette, Pennsylvania. Tucked against wooded lands at the end of a gravel drive, The Elk Grove is a perfect escape for families, couples, and outdoor enthusiasts looking to stay right in the town of Benzette without being feet away from other tenants. This three bedroom, two bath house, with a full finished basement is spacious enough for larger families, but cozy enough for couples. The Elk Grove is walking distance to many attractions in Benezette, including the Elk Country Visitor’s Center, Benezette Wines, The Old Bull Café, The Benezette Hotel, the Elk Trail, and the waterways of Trout Run and the Bennett Branch of the Sinnemahoning Creek. Despite being so close, guests can still feel far away with picnic and fire pit areas where you see more trees and wildflowers than neighbors! Elk regularly visit the property to graze in the yard, or look for apples on the tree only 20 yards from the windows in the dining and kitchen areas. The former occupants told us stories of how "Fred," the former Benezette town bull, used to sit just under two bedroom windows regularly! So don’t be surprised if you see an elk staring in your bedroom window when you wake up! The Elk Grove has a full kitchen equipped with a propane cooktop and double ovens, a full refrigerator and freezer, and a microwave. The eat-in kitchen has table seating for four, where guests can sit with their morning coffee or evening glass of wine and watch the elk come into the yard to graze on the grass or search for apples. The living room has enough seating for the entire family and includes a comfortable sectional sofa, recliner, and rocking chair, as well as a flat screen television with Dish Network. The upstairs bathroom features a tub/shower, toilet, and vanity illuminated by custom tin lighting that accents the mountain wildlife themed room. There are three generously sized bedrooms upstairs, two with queen sized beds, and the other with a king. There is plush carpeting throughout the living room and bedroom areas. Each bedroom has ample closet space for longer stays, as well. There is also a large hall closet to collect the family's coats during those colder months in Pennsylvania. There are a washer and dryer located in the finished basement available for tenant use. The basement is carpeted, with a full bathroom including a toilet, sink, and stand-up shower. There is more than enough space for the kids to play here! For outdoors lovers, there is a picnic table under roof for outside meals, even in the rain. There is also a fire pit area outback with a perfect view of the woods behind the house. The Elk Grove offers all of the convenience and close proximity to the attractions of Elk Country without the encroachment of other cabins, we hope you will join us!

Property was very clean. Outdoor security lights were nice to have. This was my 5th trip to Benezette and the first rental where the water did not have an odor. Just wish the water pressure was better.

we visited the area to see the elk, the home was a short drive to many viewing areas . we were able to walk to area restaurants , shops and a winery, but the home was set back enough to feel secluded . the owners answered our questions and requests .we will return to stay again.

Pics shown on listing must be very old as the place is now a bit run down. Furniture is falling apart. Not the cleanest place either. Bed linens that we paid extra for were utterly disgusting and stunk like mold/mildew. I can not recommend staying here.

Everything was nice. You should mention in your advertisement that linens are not provided so your guests know to bring their own. We didn’t see as many elk as previous years, but it was great spending time with my dad and hubby. Thank you for sharing your home!
