Tucked within Rothrock State Forest & surrounded by approximately 25,000 acres of State Game Lands, this seasonal cabin offers a peaceful retreat immersed in nature. Located just 1.5 miles from Whipple Dam State Park & only 17 miles to State College & Penn State University, you’ll enjoy the perfect balance of seclusion & accessibility. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate access to 70+ miles of nearby trails, abundant wildlife & exceptional hunting opportunities for deer, turkey, grouse, squirrels, rabbits & black bear during designated seasons. Take in breathtaking views from the nearby scenic overlook atop Pine Grove Mills Mountain, showcasing sweeping vistas of State College & Penn State. This charming cabin features a cozy, rustic feel complemented by modern essentials, including running water, electricity, a private well & on-lot sewage. The main level offers a spacious living room, large kitchen & a half bath (plumbed for a future shower), while the upper level includes two comfortable bedrooms. Relax and unwind on the inviting covered front & rear porches, perfect for enjoying the sights & sounds of the surrounding forest. Additional amenities include a newer metal roof (2018), electric baseboard heat & dual coal/wood stove in the living room to help supplement heating costs. Being sold AS-IS & fully furnished, this property is ready for immediate enjoyment. Annual lease is $200; buyers must meet DCNR lease requirements. Property is not permitted for full-time residence but is accessible year-round. Whether you're seeking a private getaway, a basecamp for outdoor adventure, or a place to unwind & reconnect with nature, this inviting cabin offers a rare opportunity to experience the beauty and tranquility of the Pennsylvania wilds. The DCNR land lease will be transferred at closing. Please review the DCNR website for specific lease requirements & note that the transfer process may take approximately 4–6 weeks. Buyer's closing timeline should remain flexible to accommodate this potential waiting period. See PA State Forest Lease Campsite Program information attached to listing.
